The Gap did a cool remake of a clip from Audrey Hepburn’s film, Funny Face. I love that movie! Rosie has the song, “Funny Face,” memorized. In college, I was taking a photography class. There were a couple times I had to bring her with me, so she would watch Funny Face, with her earphones and portable DVD player. It was cute to listen to her sing the song. She likes watching Fred Estaire and Audrey Hepburn sing and dance, almost as much I enjoy it. Though, Roman Holiday and Breakfast at Tiffany’s will always be my top favorites, over any other movie, regardless if Audrey Hepburn is the star or not. I was cracking up yesterday because the final Jeopardy answer related to a quote from Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Of course, I knew that Truman Capote was the author. Go figure that my liberal arts degree and love of Audrey would become useful in a game of Jeopardy.

My mom always told me, it doesn’t matter what you wear, rather it is how you carry yourself. I’ve always been a big fan of Audrey Hepburn’s style. Her ’50s beatnik-influenced clothes were the perfect compliment to her rebellious character in Funny Face. The detail and craftsmanship of her Givenchy gowns in Sabrina, were the perfect fantasy for Audrey’s character transformation from girl over the garage to elegant lady. Though her clothes were beautiful and fashionable in her films, then and now; she was never outshadowed by her clothes.

Love this scene and John Cusack:

I can hear the boom box, “In your eyes…”

I love this photo of Natalie Wood. I want to recreate this shot.

In a perfect world, I would have a boyfriend who looks like Tom Welling. {Sigh}

He would believe in chivalry.

He would be funny, smart and sweet.

And he would adore me.

Hey, a girl can dream, can’t she?

I really like this article by Michael Martinez at SEO Theory.

Okay, now I’m going to sleep.

Signing off.
