If you're hard up for an idea for a Halloween costume, look no further: Audrey Hepburn's turn as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's is probably one of the easiest costumes to throw together (just ask Abby). However, in case you happen to be a massive Audrey Hepburn fan, AT reader and fellow blogger Annie put together a pretty comprehensive post on how to bring Hepburn into your home...
Of course, Warhol-inspired Hepburn art is pretty mainstream these days--you can pick up your own version at Urban Outfitters, Target, or even Ikea--but what we reaaaally loved was this fantastic find on Etsy: Artist Elloh created these kitschy prints based on the most memorable moments of Breakfast at Tiffany's:
To see more of Annie's picks of Hepburn home decor, check our her blog, Living with Annie.
P.S. This one's for Abby, the only person we know who has an Audrey Hepburn poster that happens to be taller than her:
Thanks for the link to Elloh on etsy. I clicked through and I have to say, I really love her stuff. In fact, I bought a print (though not of Audrey). I think I'll be back for a few Christmas gifts....

Vintage Hollywood publicity photos are another possibility. You can find plenty on eBay -- both original and repros.
I checked out the Elloh link on etsy...totally fabulous stuff! My favorite Audrey print has to be the one where she is wearing the cat mask...one of my favorite scenes from the film. There is lots of other wonderful prints there as well...the Royal Tennenbaums is a fave.

I bought some of Elloh's stuff at Brooklyn's 2008 Renegade Craft Fair and I love it all. My "To Sir With Love" and "Red Balloon" prints are in the living room and my Mary Tyler Moore print and Presidential Facial Hair Hall of Fame pins are in the bedroom.
She also helped me out with a custom order of 30 Teddy Roosevelt pins and was a real sweetie to do business with.

What cute prints! I have a Breakfast at Tiffany's-themed bathroom, though I opted for a black-and-white photo of Audrey in The Dress.
