audrey hepburn

Last night, I watched "Funny Face." It stars Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire. I loved it! Audrey always portrays her character so well. In fact, I think she portrays these independent, self confident, down to earth roles because that's who she was. 

Audrey was not only an inspiring actress and fashion icon, but a sensible person as well. She had such an innocence to her; yet was so confidently independent. She expressed the importance in loving yourself, and that's something everyone deserves to feel. 

Here are a few of my favorite quotes from her:

"Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!

"The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years."

"Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others."

I've really been learning lessons in independence lately, and watching this movie made me so happy-I love how Audrey portrayed this trait. 

I highly reccommend this movie; there is just something refreshing about watching an old film. 

OH- and, it was interesting to watch the graphics. Every time a special effect occurred, I would really wonder how they did it back then. So interesting! And so crazy how styles have changed and technology has advanced. 

This is a bit scatterbrained and all over the place, I apologize. 

I hope everyone is doing well
