Which girl wouldn't want to think themselves in some way similar to darling of the big screen, Audrey Hepburn? Born in 1929 in Belgium to a Dutch aristocrat and British businessman, Hepburn made it through the Nazi occupation of her town and went on to become one of the most iconic actresses the world has ever seen.

Hepburn has starred in numerous films over the span of her career, including Roman Holiday, War and Peace, Funny Face and, perhaps most famously, Breakfast at Tiffany's. Some key characteristics shared by Hepburn's characters throughout these films have included poise, humour, intelligence and confidence — if this sounds like you (or, more realistically, if any one or two of these sound vaguely like they could, maybe, allude to you), then read on to see why you definitely belong in an Audrey Hepburn movie (we were just born in the wrong era, that's all, don't worry).

10. You value pets over people

Although you may feign complete indifference towards your animals, to the point of not giving them actual names, like Breakfast at Tiffany's Holly Golightly you know that you couldn't leave your pet if your life depended on it. People may come and go, but cats are forever. You big softy.

9. You're happy to eat, no matter what the situation

So what if you're wearing evening dress, complete with gloves and pearls, and window shopping in one of the fanciest stores known to man? There is ALWAYS time for a Danish pastry and a coffee. Rightly so.

8. You appreciate the impact of a new haircut

Not for you the shying away from a drastic image change. You know the influence a drastic and daring haircut can have on your life, and are only too happy to put your theory into practise. After all, hair always grows back — where can you go wrong?

7. You're not afraid to occasionally throw caution to the wind

Like Princess Ann of Roman Holiday, you'd have no problem with leaping onto a scooter with a handsome man and speeding through the streets of Rome. Life's too short not to take the odd spontaneous risk (although, if you can at all avoid ending up a police station, so much the better).

6. You know the value of a little black dress

When in doubt, you know that a little black dress will rarely fail you — no matter what the occasion, it is difficult to go wrong with this sort of ensemble. Holly Golightly was a pioneer of the LBD, and she looked gloriously chic throughout Breakfast at Tiffany's, so why wouldn't you follow in her footsteps? If it ain't broke, etc.

5. You adore Paris

Like Jo Stockton in Funny Face, although you fully admit to and embrace being a tourist in its hallowed streets you have a considerable affinity with the City of Love, and aren't afraid to show it (although possibly not through the medium of song and/or dance through its various rues). Bonjour, Paris!

4. You're not afraid to take what you deserve

Why on earth should you sleep on a couch or chair when there's a perfectly good bed available? Princess Ann certainly didn't, and nor would you. The only way you'd leave that bed is the same way she left it, being unceremoniously flipped out. Naturally you deserve better than the couch, don't let anybody tell you differently.

3. You don't let social mishaps faze you

Eliza Doolittle of My Fair Lady didn't let her awkward speech patterns hold her back while making small talk: she was only too happy to say such ridiculous phrases as "them as pinched it done her in" in a ludicrously posh accent, and owned the metaphorical floor while doing so. Like Eliza, you know that there can only be embarrassment in the absence of confidence — if you look like you're doing exactly what you're meant to be doing, you won't go far wrong in everyone else's eyes.

2. You have a marvellous capacity for accents

Audrey Hepburn herself is half British, half Dutch, but over the course of her acting career has played American, Russian, French, and Belgian characters. Your accents range effortlessly and flawlessly from Australian to German, making you a must for any Hepburn film.

1. You are a magnet for romantic partners

From Funny Face to Breakfast at Tiffany's, Audrey always gets her man (in some capacity or another) — and so do you. You bear the terrible burden of being ceaselessly attractive to romantic partners in every walk of life, and are hard pressed to go a day without at least one person falling deeply in love with you. It's a tough life, but someone's got to live it.
