Style Profile: Audrey Tautou






I decided to watch one of my all-time favourite films Hor de Prix, in English, “Priceless” with Audrey Tautou and Gad Elmaleh. Although her style is much more laidback than I aim for, her general demeanour and composure has an elegance that is to be emulated as much as possible! I myself aspire to be just as Frenchy-chic as she is!

I do adore her style, with laidback tailoring, she often wears silk blouses and relaxed slouch pants; it’s simple, easy, but brought to life with red lipstick and perfectly defined eyebrows. Here are some of my favourite snaps of this new-age Audrey Hepburn!






I love how easy her style is! She often uses shades of lipstick that do darken and define her lips, however don't overpower her skin tone - I think I'll be looking for some mid-shades of lippy that I can      wear during the day


Her evening looks are relaxed, yet still formal and elegant - this is where the red lipstick comes out. Keeping it simple seems to be her style code - it's a lesson we should all learn!
