Movie Icon Series:
Taschen

When we think of Audrey Hepburn, our mind lands on a different thing every time. Sometimes it is her frilly parasol from "My Fair Lady" or those "Roman Holiday" bangs (so coquette).

But usually we think of, with admiration, the lady herself. Movie star, activist, and silverscreen idol, now and forever.

We like a good Hepburn read, and this Taschen book catches our eye time after time. The pictures, of course, are exquisite. In fact, the entire Movie Icon Series from the artbook house is worth a look.

Next time you're at the Grove, stop by the store and find it. And, for true Audreyians, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art is screening her films through November 13th. Next up: "Sabrina." Helloooo William Holden.
