Look of the Day: Graceland

Every once in a while I put an outfit together and then later realize its influence. I put on this skirt yesterday because all of my dresses were boring me, and this skirt seemed fun and free enough for the hot weather. Once the rest of the outfit fell into place and I pranced around twirling my skirt, it was then that I realized the outfit reminded me of Audrey Hepburn as Princess Anne in Roman Holiday. Give or take a few inches on my hemline and some exposed shoulders, all I needed was a scarf tied around my neck and you might mistake me for a runaway princess. Alright getting ahead of myself there. I'm no Kate Middleton, that princess has class and style, but at times I can't help but pretend to mimic a Princess's grace at times.
"Alright, alright look. I don't have grace, I don't want grace. I don't even say grace."
Suzanne where you AT?

A bun is about as close to pixie cut as I'll get, Princess Anne was a rebel!

The breeze yesterday almost had me mimicking Marilyn Monroe yesterday, yup told you I didn't have grace.

Things I Love: The Eternal Angel

Clearly I love Audrey Hepburn. I even hosted a Breakfast at Tiffany's themed dinner party. so when my Dad and Rena gifted me with this collection of twenty movies that she starred in you know I was over the moon (or over Moon River perhaps). I have yet to tackle this collection yet, because I kind of want to savor them all. But I will definitely have some Movie of the Moments to share with you soon.

I am really excited to watch Funny Face.

But I may start at the beginning and watch The Lavender Hill Mob.

I think current copies of My Fair Lady,
Roman Holiday and Breakfast at Tiffany's are a bit jealous.

Look of The Day: Princess Ann

I spent my Saturday night playing Video games with the boys and watching one of my favorite best actress performances, Audry Hepburn in Roman Holiday. I love award shows and I love to go all out for them, so I figured Roman Holiday was the perfect movie to watch. It is one of my favorite Audry Hepburn movies. Much different from my other favorites (Breakfast at Tiffany's and My Fair Lady) but it makes want to romp around Rome. She looks fabulous in the movie, but unfortunately, for me, she spends most of the movie in one outfit.


Princess Ann or you can call her Smitty.

I purchased the Minooka Moccasins a few years ago and haven't worn in them in ages since fringe boots got super trendy. But have grown tired of all my other boots so I decided to rock them. Same cardigan as mine in a different pattern here, similar tunic here.
Being a goofball, rocking my Grandpa's hat at my Mom's.
My tights, that ended up getting a run in them.
Ditched accessories.
At midnight, I'll turn into a pumpkin and drive away in my glass slipper.
And Keep your eye for a Giveaway tomorrow!! If you follow me on twitter watch for a sneak preview of what will be given away, I am very excited!!
