Halloween at Tiffany's - Holly Golightly Costume and Pumpkin

<div style="text-align: center;">Halloween is fast approaching and I'm sad to say that this year I will not be dressing up.<br />I'm currently so busy with school, as well as having been hired on to work as a cashier at a two week pop up sale, that I just don't have the time for Halloween parties this year. <br /><br />Instead, I wanted to share with you my favourite Halloween costume and pumpkin that I have ever done! <br />Y'all know I'm a bit obsessed with Audrey Hepburn, my idol, so in my first year of University when I was living on residence (can't believe that was 4 years ago already), I decided to dress up as Holly Golightly:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdXDWAfOFkBHPhrEMYMPstfgfkzCnO5zq92HYL5WqzDzdTNmeK2Fxm0sW4ki20kmGErZaBnNlfgCvuuaiHLo6T5wDGXN-9MZWth05R6aJz-h0UhAzHDbNKKDCPM7fPagzyqU4nJG7s0hxB/s1600/audrey+hepburn+collage.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdXDWAfOFkBHPhrEMYMPstfgfkzCnO5zq92HYL5WqzDzdTNmeK2Fxm0sW4ki20kmGErZaBnNlfgCvuuaiHLo6T5wDGXN-9MZWth05R6aJz-h0UhAzHDbNKKDCPM7fPagzyqU4nJG7s0hxB/s640/audrey+hepburn+collage.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSjtzdKUbCmt201yTQx6J7V5c3CyKxTRRkzy9zKp4fUMf_JZXstLL22Gvh6uDK0GlHO83JL0skXM9mhwRHiQrsOXlgOWAwUYn-YCpZWASg3GTIpeO0L0F3ELhLwePep3iPvIiquE0EjEBD/s1600/n504125257_4765577_7080+-+Copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSjtzdKUbCmt201yTQx6J7V5c3CyKxTRRkzy9zKp4fUMf_JZXstLL22Gvh6uDK0GlHO83JL0skXM9mhwRHiQrsOXlgOWAwUYn-YCpZWASg3GTIpeO0L0F3ELhLwePep3iPvIiquE0EjEBD/s640/n504125257_4765577_7080+-+Copy.jpg" width="164" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjshwyw27iI3n6d2_Lku7ZcF2uwsKDNgFQn0Au_gsIfy_pX7iUYzfoi8JxsU-_ZRukmNc9YIpxWckzVMkb-1Z0QYg0uxvrBgz-xT4JiScFgBXpj613C8PC4gVJj8hay1_UwWOU2u_wBI2XX/s1600/n506184824_1058964_2144.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjshwyw27iI3n6d2_Lku7ZcF2uwsKDNgFQn0Au_gsIfy_pX7iUYzfoi8JxsU-_ZRukmNc9YIpxWckzVMkb-1Z0QYg0uxvrBgz-xT4JiScFgBXpj613C8PC4gVJj8hay1_UwWOU2u_wBI2XX/s640/n506184824_1058964_2144.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>I seriously loved this costume more than anything.

I know there have been a ton of blog posts about Audrey and her iconic style, but that's the one great thing about Audrey: you can never get enough! (kind of like Sugar Crisp, only WAY better). She is amazing for her classic sense of style, beauty and grace, and for her admirable philanthropic achievements. They just don't make them like this in Hollywood anymore folks!<br /><br />Audrey is also a humble homebody, reportedly saying "<span class="body">I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel".</span><br /><div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"></div><div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">What better way to celebrate this quote than to explore some simple ways to incorporate a little Audrey into our own spaces to refuel:</div><b><br /></b><br /><b>1) Audrey Hepburn artwork:</b><br />I have three pieces of art work/prints of Audrey Hepburn hanging in my bedroom.
