I love Audrey Hepburn.
It’s a little known fact to anyone who really knows me.
Recently I’ve shared with you two personal posts (like here and here) and in them I talked about having some troubles growing up and how I used to daydream.
I longed for a mentor. Crazy that a young adolescent such as myself would even know what a mentor was but I craved one nonetheless.
I picked two mentors, actually, and have gobbled up everything they stood for.
#1 Oprah
#2 Audrey Hepburn
I actually went to the Oprah show a few years ago. You can read about it here. It was truly amazing!
I named my daughter after Audrey Hepburn (and Grace Kelly)!
Audrey Hepburn was always someone I could relate to somehow.
She was different. She was lovely.
She was my inspiration.
Lofty goals to have these two as mentors, I know.
Today, I’m going to show you how I was inspired to decorate my walk-in-closet Audrey Hepburn style.
Odd that I might use my walk-in-closet as my “shrine” to Audrey Hepburn but in fact it’s the perfect place!
Every morning when I get dressed I’m totally inspired for the day but all this loveliness.
And yes, I’ve been very spoiled over the years with many trinkets from Tiffany’s.
I’ve seen the movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, so many times I lost count.
I broke the VHS video I had from watching it too many times back in the day!
Whenever I felt sad, I’d watch it.
Or Roman Holiday.
In fact, I’ve seen every one of her movies.
I even bought the perfume she made with Givenchy.
I love ballet flats because of her and skinny capris.
When I went to New York in 1998 the first place I visited was the flagship Tiffany’s store near Central Park. I was in awe.
This side of my closet is where I keep my gym clothes, jeans, bags and some of her books.
My husband installed a tiny chandelier when we first moved in for me.
My adoption certificate sits on the top shop with the famous bags.
What about you? Who inspires you?
And would you decorate your walk-in-closet as I did?
Do you have ‘Moon River’ in your head now?
Love it!! SO bright and cheery:) xo, amy
Thanks Amy 😉

Thanks Ruthie 😉
This closet is amazing Jamie! Love it!
I love the Tiffany bags! I’m drawn to that color – it makes me happy!
I know, Tiffany’s bags are the best.
Thanks Sheila;)
This is amazing, Jamie! I love that you’ve created such a lovely and inspirational space out of your closet. Tres chic!
Awww, thanks friend 😉

Love that you made your closet a pretty place to get dressed in each day! Makes getting ready a little more special right?
Yes, it does! Thanks Caitlin, love your blog 😉

Oh wow! I could move right in and not change a thing!! xo
Thanks so much, Amanda!
Hugs,
Jamie
oh la la… Simply gorgeous!!! You may have just inspired me to attack my skinny closet of shame. I also have bags in my closet they are just plastic Target, Goodwill, and Lowe’s (what ?) in a jumble on the floor. 🙂
Thanks Kimberly! Did I inspire you to get rid of those Target bags yet? lol
Hugs,
Jamie
great closet space, pretty touches
Thanks so much 😉
Love how bright and fresh it is (in part due to all of those lovely Tiffany boxes)!
Yes, it’s all about the Tiffany’s 😉 Thanks Shauna

That’s just too glamorously cute Amy – love it! I’m visiting from the Nifty Thrifty Tuesday Party.
Thanks Marie 😉
Wow, what a great idea! I love both movies Tiffany’s and Roman Holiday. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much! Best movies ever 😉

Thanks so much, Alexis 😉

Jamie, what a beautiful closet! I love the chandelier your hubby installed, and all of the Tiffany blue colors, books and decor. I am a fan of Audrey Hepburn too and this is such an inspiring closet, must make getting ready that much more fun! Thanks for sharing at The Makers, pinned 🙂
Thanks Katie! It was a lot of fun to decorate 😉
Hugs,
Jamie
I love this! Cutest closet ever!
Thanks so much 😉
This is so fun Jamie! I love that color and well, Ms. Hepburn is a classic. Love it. Thanks for sharing again with us this week at The Makers!
Thanks Corey!!
Hugs,
Jamie
Jamie I think this is the cutest thing that you have an Audrey Hepburn inspired closet! I LOVE Audrey Hepburn, but you are the queen of all things Audrey Hepburn. I have to admit, I would create a Grace Kelly style closet if I could. I would have all my scarves dedicated to Grace Kelly, lol. Thank you for sharing at Redouxinteriors!
Thanks so much, Karen! Wouldn’t that be amazing? A Grace Kelly closet! Would it be full of the famous Birkin bags too? One can wish, haha
Hugs,
Jamie
I’m a new reader to your blog & just happened to see the Tiffany closet in your best of 2014 post so immediately clicked over here to read! I have entirely too many Tiffany bags & boxes (okay, never mind… one can NEVER have too many!). Aaaand Hubs *just* last week installed a mini chandelier in my closet as well. I’m totally going to borrow this idea for my own closet ~ thanks!
Also, if you ever get the chance, you MUST see the flagship Tiffany & Co. decorated for Christmas! We were just in there a few weeks ago & it’s beyond stunning. Aaaand… a few extra bags never hurt either. 😉
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, your closet! I would inspire my closet after Kathrine Hepburn! I love her movies. Baby…Philadelphia Story, they are all so wonderful. Thanks for such a great inspiration!
I love this. I am a huge Audrey Hepburn (and Grace Kelly) fan and have passed it onto my 16 year old daughter. Such class, grace, and talent in beautiful packages! I can see how starting the day in this closet would be inspiring!
