Feliz Cumpleaños Audrey Hepburn









A very beautiful lady who was destined to rule hearts of many around the world was born today.

She did some very memorable films( check the video above). She turned out to be an epitome of style, poise and grace. She remains an evergreen style icon- her clothes and hairstyle will never go out of fashion.

To add to it all, she had goodness of heart and kindness- something very rare in the showbiz world she was a big part of.

She worked hard( her son Sean Hepburn Ferrer in her biography says because she thought she had shortcomings), did lovely films, was a humanitarian, never forgot the rough times as a child during World war 2 and hence was very compassionate towards world's children, more so the unprivileged ones. Her humanitarianism would have continued for many years and even though she's not physically around, the Audrey Hepburn Children's fund does do the needful.

She tried hard to balance it all well and was a great parent to her sons as well.


She remains alive in the hearts of many who would effortlessly say---Audrey Heburn- Born May the 4TH----forever( much like how TCM does)!

Pictured above- Raised a toast and a little cake dedicated to her. There's only so much( maybe a little more) one can do now!Maybe sometime later a visit to Belgium, her place of birth and Switzerland, her resting place will be good.



She's the reason why Tiffany's in New York has become so extraordinarily famous and remains so... I can personally never forget my visit either.I made it a point that I visited the Tiffany's when I was there. I am sure many others have done the same over the years.






Some names just leave on, for the right reasons...Wish there were more artistes like these in the showbiz world of today. The showbiz world will become so much better again.


Well, words are not enough...

Keep smiling from up there My Fair Lady.

Happy Birthday.
