Having Roman Holiday as a long time favorite movie, I was so happy to discover How to Steal a Million, also with Hepburn, but with the dreamy Peter O'Toole, and an amazing wardrobe by Givenchy. It is completely charming movie both in the story and cinematography in Paris, perfect for spring--I think I may like it even more than Roman Holiday.
I could see a whole editorial based on these looks, the lime green, skinny patent belts, just-so hats; O'Toole's looks could even inspire some menswear looks--Even Hepburn's bouffant is so classic and yet fresh feeling. Everything looks so mod and timeless and je ne sais quoi, Parisienne.

ReplyDeleteLove the screenshots!
You know, I am so surprised at how most women dress these days. I feel amazing when I get dressed up! When I feel amazing, my mood is sky high, too. When my mood is up there, I feel like I can do anything, and even welcome the occasional crash and burn with grace.
ReplyDeleteSo why is it that women hardly do their hair anymore? Or go out in sweatpants and uggs and call it good? Down with sloppy attire! Let's get back to being feminine and sexy and feeling grand!
Great post! Thanks! xoxo
