Nothing bad could happen at Tiffany's

Quest'anno é il 50esimo compleanno di uno dei miei film preferiti - Colazione da Tiffany di Blake Edwards, la storia di una ragazza molto elegante ma un po' persa, e l'uomo che la ama, incorniciata da una New York d'altri tempi. Il capolavoro che ha reso Audrey Hepburn non solo un'attrice leggendaria (ebbe una nomination all'Oscar per Best Actress) ma anche un'icona di stile.
Per celebrare quest'anniversario mi sono comprata il libro di Truman Capote, scoprendo cosí questo grande autore e la sua scrittura fluida, leggera e raffinatissima. Il personaggio di Holly sembra cucito addosso ad Audrey, la mia personale icona di stile e di vita.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of one of my all-time favorite movies, Blake Edwards' Breakfast at Tiffany's, a story of a very elegant but somewhat lost It girl and the man who loves her, in a romantic and wistful New York. The masterpiece that made Audrey Hepburn not only a legendary actress (she got an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress), but also a style icon.
To celebrate this anniversary, I bought the book by Truman Capote, discovering this great author and his fluid, refined style. The character of Holly seems created especially for Audrey, my personal style and life icon.

"What I've found does the mood good is just to get into a taxi and go to Tiffany's. It calms me down right away, the quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there, not with those kind men in their nice suits and that lovely smell of silver and alligator wallets. If I could find a real-life place that made me feel like Tiffany's, then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name!"
