haverpunk asked: Perhaps inspiration could be pulled from that picture of Audrey in the supermarket with her pet doe. She loved animals, and deer describe her nature so well... a doe picking at the items on the blanket in a supermarket somehow embodies her to me.

Love it, let’s share it with the OP.

psychopizza asked: For my art course, I've chosen Audrey as my inspiration, naturally. For the piece, I'm doing a still life of items I think represented her a Hermes scarf, a picnic basket and some food, flowers, gloves, bits from 'The Audrey Hepburn Treasures', but I don't have a background to tie it all together. I was thinking of a scene on a boat or in a cafe with all the items sat there as if Audrey was on a picnic:) Can you think of a cafe or place Audrey would or has visited that would be suitable? Thanks!

Hey there! I love the idea of this and I wish you the best of luck with your assignment! Here is a picture of Audrey at a café in the Piazza Navona from Vanity Fair’s issue celebrating the release of Audrey in Rome.  Perhaps this could work?

This may not be the best answer and therefore I’ll request the help of other faithful Audrey fans to lend their suggestions as well. If I can think of any alternative ideas, I’ll be sure to update this post with them.   Any ideas Audrey fans?

kittenpuff1989 asked: I love audrey hepburns makeup especially her lipstick, but I have such a hard time finding exact colors like the one she wore in Breakfast at Tiffs, where she's in the back of the cab in the end, and when she's getting ready to go out as she applies lipstick at her mailbox. Any recommendation?

That coral color was very popular in the 1960s.  Unfortunately, at this moment I don’t have any recommendations but here is a popular Breakfast At Tiffany’s makeup tutorial that may help you locate a particular lip color and brand. I wish this answer was more helpful!
