Annelies, whose Instagram bio describes herself as a 17-year-old "with big dreams and a vivid imagination," uses make-up and wardrobe to make her recreations come to life. She mimics the timeless looks of such classic Hollywood actresses as Audrey Hepburn and Vivienne Leigh, and also fictional characters Elizabeth Bennett from Pride and Prejudice and Audrey Horne from Twin Peaks.




The Belgium resident peppers her impressive 'grams with descriptions of her wardrobe and styling, her favorite Etsy finds and other details about her beauty routine.

The account doesn't only whisk you away into another period but it also includes snapshots from Analies' real life strolls within nature and some of her personal artwork. 






With a great imagination and spot-on accuracy, it seems this Instagram rising star can only get better with age.
