"The average Hollywood film star's ambition is to be admired by an American,
courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman
and have a French boyfriend."

-Katharine Hepburn

classic katharine hepburn

I find these photos of an older Katharine Hepburn quite refreshing. To be honest, they make me look forward to aging... Wrinkles and all, I think she looks beautiful! The photos were shot in 1951 while she was in London acting in the play "The Millionairess." Aren't they lovely?

linda evangelista as katharine hepburn

Doesn't Linda Evangelista make a superb Katharine Hepburn?! This series reminds me of makeup artist Kevyn Aucoin’s book, Face Forward. In the book, he transforms various celebrities and personal friends into other people (his rendition of Calista Flockhart as Audrey Hepburn is uncanny!). Plus, he gives the best makeup tips. You can find the hardback for about $5 - $10 on Amazon.. I highly recommend!
