WWAD: What Would Audrey Do?

WWAD: What Would Audrey Do?

I adore Audrey Hepburn. If I were to compile a list of top five WITs, she would hold the number one or two spot (Jackie O is hard to beat…). Audrey embodied grace, elegance and sophistication in a way that is hard to come by in today’s fast-paced modern world.

My birthday was this past weekend and my sister got me the wonderful gift of What Would Audrey Do? While this is not my first book on Audrey Hepburn (there are so many good ones on my bookshelves- Audrey Style is among my absolute favorites however and led me to post this when I first read it back in the day…), I am genuinely excited to read it. WITs can never stop learning and who better to learn than from the style icon and that made large designer sunglasses and ballet flats staples in women’s’ wardrobes?! Now if only all of us could be best friends with designers like Yves Saint Laurent. But, a WIT can dream, right?

Check out the book here! The author, Pamela Keogh also wrote a What Would Jackie Do? that I have read and also love.

Now that so many of the major holidays are almost behind us, this time of year is a great opportunity to catch up on some reading. And I’m not just talking about magazines or the occasional front page of your local newspaper. There’s been a recent surge of books written by women that can serve as almost self-improvement or life-improvement guides. Below you’ll find an array of books I recommend to continue your pursuit of wittyness! Enjoy!
