Audrey Hepburn has always been remembered as just a pretty face, but she is so much more. Every girl should look up to Audrey Hepburn and here’s why:
1. She was an amazing actress.
From her role in the ever-famous "Breakfast at Tiffany’s," to "Roman Holiday" and "Charade," Audrey was sure to steal the show every time. Not to mention her Oscar-winning performance in "Sabrina."
2. She was an ambassador for UNICEF.
UNICEF provides long-term developmental assistance to mothers and children in developing countries. Audrey would travel to these countries to help out everyone in need.
3. She has her own children’s fund
Audrey’s son created a children’s fund to keep her effort of helping others live. It can be located at audreyhepburn.com.
4. Her sense of style compares to no other’s.
Her style will forever be one of class. From her little black dress to her ballet flats and oversized sunglasses, people still copy her style today without even knowing.
5. She was a good mother.
Unlike many actors and actresses today, Audrey stepped out of the spotlight once she had kids. She wanted them to grow up without the constant pressure of Hollywood.
6. She didn’t want to be like everyone else.
Audrey came about around the same time as Marilyn Monroe was very popular. Along with this came an ideal hourglass figure and revealing clothing, but young Audrey was quite the opposite.
So, next time you see something about Audrey Hepburn, remember that she wasn’t just a pretty face, but rather someone we should all look up to. And remember “happy girls, are the prettiest.”
