The Love of Tiffany Blue

Our LOVE of Tiffany Blue runs deep… Breakfast at Tiffany’s was a favorite movie of mine (Ruthie) all through my growing up years! And it still is.

Every now & again I pull it out and re-watch it just to fall in love with Audrey Hepburns spunky role as Holly Golightly all over again! Breakfast at Tiffany’s was produced during Hollywood’s Golden Age in 1961 and one of Audrey’s most memorable films.
