What is the definition of beauty and class? If you thought “Audrey Hepburn” then you are right—she is the exact definition. Audrey Hepburn is funny without being mean, beautiful without being fake, and sexy without being inappropriate. Not many people can achieve this, but Audrey has left behind some words of wisdom for us to try.
1. “Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I’m possible.”
2. “The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.”
3. “I believe in pink. I believe laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.”
4. “I don’t take my life seriously, but I do take what I do -in my life- seriously.”
Stop stressing over the little things. Joyously live everyday to the best of your ability—that is what you need to be taking seriously.
5. “Elegance is the only beauty that never fades.”
6. “Paris is always a good idea.”
Travel. Travel, travel, travel. Travel as much as you can, whether it be traveling where you live or going to Paris. You will see the beauty within different cultures and places, or learn more about your own culture and home. It is always a rewarding experience.
7. "Let’s face it, a nice creamy chocolate cake does a lot for a lot of people; it does for me.”
8. “Life is a party, dress like it.”
When you dress to make yourself comfortable, you feel good. So dress however it is that makes you feel most you. Don’t worry about being over-dressed or under-dressed. You just bought that super cute dress? Wear it! Your favorite sweats were just washed and you're dying to wear them them again? Do it! Life is whatever type of party you want it to be, so dress for the occasion.
9. “You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.”
Speak kindly about yourself and others. The way in which you act is the true representation of who you are. So think before you talk. Ultimately, it will reward you.
10. “The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows and the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.”
I could go on and on with quotes from her, reminding us on what is important in life. But the best thing to leave you with is, “A girl should be two things, classy and fabulous.” So go out and be fabulous because Audrey believes in us.
