Audrey Hepburn Pearls
Holly Golightly wears a multi-strand pearl necklace with a huge rhinestone pendant clasp at the front, and the pearls fall down her back, like the image on the left.
You don't have to worry about recreating this exactly - the right combination of pearls and little black dress will look beautifully Audrey - but the easiest way to get this look is with a multiple strand necklace in the style of one such as this, to which you can pin a large diamante brooch on the front of if you wish!
It's all starting to come together!
Fancy some real Tiffany pearls?
Well, a girl can dream...

- I really like watching Breakfast at Tiffanys because of the fabulous star, Orangey, the great Cat Actor (he received an award for his role). His co-star was Hepburn and she wasn't too bad either
