40’s Inspired Top
If there is anything I love as much as watching a classic film, it’s wearing clothes inspired by the silver screen era! I found this chic floral top in the clearance section at Kohl’s for only $9!

Movie Monday: Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)
Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961) movie poster Today’ #MovieMonday will be all about reviewing the timeless style of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961). It is safe to say that Audrey served up some serious looks in this film so lets get started! These photos are not mine. Breakfast at Tiffany’s is easily one of the most influential movies, stylistically speaking, to hit the silver screen since…well probably another Audrey Hepburn film. Unlike Sabrina (1954) or Roman Holiday (1953), Audrey is no longer playing characters who are young and somewhat naive. In this film she is a mature woman who knows how to make a decision for herself, and those traits are clearly articulated in the…
