Just Being Audrey

January 9, 2011

Thanks to my friend Sarah I just learned about an adorable new Audrey Hepburn book titled Just Being Audrey.  It’s a beautifully illustrated children’s book about Ms. Hepburn’s inspiring life from her childhood growing up in Nazi-occupied Europe to her later years dedicated to being a UNICEF ambassador.  The official release date isn’t until the 25th, but according to Sarah Anthropologie is already selling copies.  See you there!

    What a lovely book, my daughter has one called Different like Coco about Coco Chanel. I will have to keep an eye out for it as we are both Audrey fans.

    I saw this book today at Anthro today over lunch! I almost bought it and then decided to wait. I thought about it all afternoon and now I’m seeing it here! It’s reverse buyer’s remorse. I’ll be going back tomorrow, I suppose!!! :)
