It-Girl Holiday Style Inspired By Audrey Hepburn

Few to none did it like the American sweet-heart, Audrey Hepburn. 

Looks featured in Sabrina from 1954 fill all the gaps in fashion as we know it. From the layering of a sleek black long-sleeve under an A-line body length dress to an all too powerful white blazer. The actress made her presence known by not only the way she presented her characters in front of the screen, but the way she never fell short of composure. 

We are here to deliver you the necessary list of items to match the style of the icon herself.

All you need is:

 A Black Dress

Long or short, the clothing item is a classic worn during the nineties. Hepburn initiated the fad by manipulating the dress to look chic, sexy, or business casual. You can find reasonably priced dresses of this style and color specifically on H&M and SKIMS. You know what One Direction said about the “Little Black Dress”! If it catches the eyes of one of the most well-known male pop star bands in history, then it is surely a show stopper. 

Trench Coat

We are talking about going big or going home for this timeless jacket! Best for the colder months, a trench coat is the statement your outfit is calling for. It will turn your need to stay warm into a conversation starter with the guests this holiday. The fact that they are personal insulators and light weight makes for the easiest time maneuvering in the lengthy jacket. ASOS offers the most affordable and desired trench coat in 2021.

Black Turtle Neck

If you are looking for a universal clothing item that will recycle itself through a multitude of outfits, it is time to say yes to turtle necks! You could even make two outfits with this garment using the black dress and trench coat mentioned above. Add the black long sleeve, essentially, to your shopping cart or last minute Christmas list to provide a stylistic illusion and hide the dry winter skin. Free People offers a smooth option called the “Rickie Top” for your liking and all sizes!

Ballet Flats

We could quite literally spend our entire day spinning in these shoes! It is rare to love such a fancy pair of shoes, but despite their appearance they surpass a level of comfort heels, mules, and sneakers cannot. With each step, you make a delicate leap forward in fashion. Hepburn in any other shoe was a sight to be marked in the books, for her feet were always walking sets and red carpets in these lovely sock-like creations. Nordstrom is your best bet for an array of styles that mimic Hepburn’s very own flats.

Cigarette Trousers

This specific pant brings comfort, style, and versatility unlike jeans or skirts could ever! Everlane shows the facts of the design through their product images; the model’s waist is kindly hugged while the legs fit looser to provide a curvy body shape. We imagine this fit feeling cloud-like. With an accentuating waist design, the pants flatter the lower body unimaginably. Confidence is automatically lifted when a man or woman puts their two legs into trousers. Speaking of man or woman, the pants suit both the feminine or masculine style depending on the way you alter other elements in the outfit. 

Cat Eye Sunglasses

Finish off your actress appeal with the timeless sunglasses worn by Hepburn and almost every other celebrity known to man-kind. The shape of plastic, or glass, material highlights the cheekbones and eyes- factors Hepburn is known for. She never let the people forget her deep gaze into the world. Imagine a collaboration between the actress and Chanel, but do not worry the luxury brand already did for you!

Wherever you extend in this lifetime, make jaws drop before words are even exchanged. That’s the power of fashion; you do not even have to talk before someone falls in love with you. You could just create a name for yourself like Audrey Hepburn.
