With the start of a new year, people are always looking for ways to reinvent themselves. As you look at all of the “new year, new me” posts on your feed, you might be asking yourself how you can make 2018 different. One of the best ways to better yourself for the future is actually to look towards the past.
Headlines from the last few years have provided young women with plenty of female role models, however there are even more strong women to be inspired by waiting in the pages of history books.
Here are some of the ladies who can influence your fashion and lifestyle in 2018.
Audrey Hepburn
“Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering — because you can’t take it all in at once.” – Audrey Hepburn
You’re probably familiar with Audrey Hepburn because of her work in classic films like Breakfast at Tiffany’s or My Fair Lady. What you might not know is that, as a teenager, Hepburn danced in ballet productions to raise money for the Dutch resistance during World War II. Her later years were devoted to humanitarian efforts as well through her work with UNICEF.

How to dress like her: Audrey Hepburn was known for being a star with an attainable look, so adopting her fashion isn’t hard. A simple long sleeve solid or striped shirt in dark colors with a pair of pencil leg pants will be the perfect nod to Hepburn. For a pop of color, add a neckerchief, a reference to her Roman Holiday look, and you’re good to go!
How to live like her: Even though she’s one of Hollywood’s most iconic stars, Hepburn was most proud of her humanitarian work. In 2018, find a new cause to which you can devote yourself. Whether it’s a local charity or a global initiative, volunteer your time or help raise money and awareness for something that’s important to you. If you really want to embrace Hepburn’s spirit, follow her love for animals and volunteer at your local animal shelter or find out how you can carry on her work with UNICEF.
