Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, except in this case, Grace Marinaro gives Hepburn chic her own edgy little twist. And we love the outcome. This commanding sophomore from New York rocked a slim, foxy black look by pairing her sleek outfit with nude cork wedges and a rocker inspired necklace from Forever 21. As an advertising major, Grace knows how to promote her style and that of her icons, as she is seen repping the great Audrey Hepburn herself on her casual arm bag. We all know Hepburn for her classic performance in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, which is exactly how our fashionista likes to keep her style. If she isn’t grabbing her go-to outfit of leggings, gladiators and chunky jewelry, she is tirelessly working to pair expensive pieces with affordable items to maintain her statement style. Some may think this only works as a nighttime look, but Grace works it in the daytime for her UMiami runway–cue the music please!
