Love Audrey Much?
October 7, 2013
Why yes, yes I do! Audrey Hepburn of course. Well, today I was shopping in our local bookstore and what did I find? Not one but TWO books about Audrey and both used (ie – cheap)! Did I buy them both? No, but that doesn’t mean I won’t go back for the one I didn’t get. :-) That means I’m up to three books in my Audrey collection. Here they are in the order they have come to me:
1) How To Be Lovely: The Audrey Hepburn Way of Life – A beautiful hardcover book I had pined away for a long time and my wonderful sister-in-law Jen gifted to me last year for Christmas. It is a book full of Audrey quotes on things like Happiness, Love, and (of course) Style. There are also loads of photos.
2) The Audrey 100 – This I found at Walmart on the discount table for $12. It’s a gorgeous oversized hardcover book with 100 photographs of Audrey Hepburn picked out by her husband and sons. In the back there are notes on each picture as well which makes it doubly good.
3) What Would Audrey Do – Timeless Lessons For Living With Grace And Style – This is my find today and it is a cute little pink paperback with a lot of information about Audrey but also fun things like quizzes (how well do you know Audrey) and a chart on the differences between Audrey Hepburn and Katherine Hepburn. Lots of tips too on how to live an Audrey kind of life. How fun is that!
4) So Audrey: 59 Ways To Put A Little Hepburn In Your Step – This is the one that got away but maybe not for long. It’s a sweet little book with pictures of Audrey and cute sayings to match like “Heels can bring you pain, but a ballet flat will never hurt you.” Yep, I think I’ll be going back for this one. :-)
These are books you read with a cup of tea or coffee and some chocolates on the bedside table while you lounge in bed. Or relaxing on the couch in a quiet moment. My idea of a fun time for sure.
