Holly Golightly - Breakfast @ Tiffany's ღ

"In the early morning hours, a taxicab pulls up at the famed jewelry company Tiffany's & Co. on Fifth Avenue in New York City and a stylishly dressed woman emerges. The woman, Holly Golightly, enjoys a pastry and coffee while standing before the window displays, then strolls home."
Above is an excerpt from the film 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' which Audrey Hepburn starred as Holly Golightly. 
Holly's style was so iconic that years after the film, people still identify the long black dress ( which was designed by Givenchy), gloves and over- sized black glasses that she wore in it. 

Below, we've put together our own version of Holly's style while she ate her Breakfast at Tiffany's.


  1. Black long dress from Miss Selfridge
  2. Black over-sized sunglass from Topshop
  3. Stud earrings from Anthropologie
  4. Tiara comb from Evita Peroni
  5. Multiple layer pearl necklace from Forever 21
  6. Long black satin gloves from Claire's
  7. Black kitten heels from Nine West                   
And...as always, you are never complete without any perfume. So, in honour of Breakfast at Tiffany's, we suggest 5th Avenue from Elizabeth Arden. Very classic!
A sparkling, sheer floral with subtle warmth and richness. A contemporary American classic.
