I first saw her in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Sabrina and Roman Holiday - her film debut, and instantly fall in love with her wit, her big doe like eyes and her immeccable fashion sense.
Started out as a ballerina who went on to acting theatre and films, Audrey Hepburn was the IT girl during her hey-days. As she shares the same last name as another Hollywood star of that era - Katharine Hepburn - Audrey was mistaken as Katharine when she went for her fitting at Givenchy. But nonetheless the quirky girl manage to leave a lasting impression on Givenchy. She later on wore several of his pieces in Breakfast at Tiffany's and made famous the term 'little black dress' as she wore the black dress of the great Givenchy on the set.
If there's anything I want for Christmas, it will be the DVDs of Tiffany's, Sabrina, Roman Holiday, My Fair Lady, Charades, Funny Faces which are just some of Audrey's Hepburn's notable films. Or her Biography (read about her in Wikipedia, her life story seems to depicts the lives of those in Danielle Steel's books: survived the war, have several unsuccessful relationships, difficult childbirth, acting career, worked with UNICEF.) Or a huge drawing of her like the one below.
