Halloween Costume on a Budget: Audrey Hepburn

"I don't want to own anything until I find a place where me and things go together.  I'm not sure where that is but I know what it is like.  It's like Tiffany's." -Holly Golightly

We love the idea of an old time movie star as a Halloween costume.  An obvious choice is Breakfast at Tiffany’s-era Audrey Hepburn.  A Little Black Dress, along with an array of fashion jewelry accessories will authenticate your costume.  Let’s first take a look a famous Tiffany’s photograph so ubiquitous in female college dormitories.  This is a famous look of Audrey's, incorporating a rhinestone fringe necklace, sparkly jewel or rhinestone earrings, as well as a spunky cocktail ring.

Here is a second classic  Audrey Hepburn photo, with an alternate jewelry look.  She's still donning her famous slim black cocktail dress, but now she is in her famous multistrand pearl necklace, easily copied with faux pearl look-alike choker necklacesAlso add a rhinestone hair comb for your bang-heavy updo. 

Another popular idea for Halloween, especially when dressing as a classic character or pop culture icon, is to wear name jewelry with your Name Jewelry can help identify your Halloween costume character.character's name.  For example, a Marilyn Monroe costume could be enhanced with a “Marilyn” name jewelry item, such as this silver tone name bracelet. Other name jewelry is available at Bakelite Johnny.com.  Most of it is vintage, and perfectly suits any past-era actor or actress you want to go as this Halloween.

Audrey Hepburn is such a gem. She has brought so much into this world that it's only right to revere her for eternity. Don't you agree? She's a big inspiration in my wife's fashion sense. Just look at her satin gloves and reworked Aspen wigs and you'll see what I'm talking about. The only thing that's lacking is a vintage cigarette holder!
