On Sunday, Julie Andrews was as luminous as ever as she acquired a breathtaking bouquet of flowers at the Sag Harbor farmers’ market in The Hamptons.
The venerable Hollywood personality, 87, made an uncommon public appearance, smiling at observers as she moved around with the assistance of a cane.
The Sound of Music actress donned a white shawl, tailored trousers, and a light grey long sleeve for her casual outing.
She complemented her sophisticated ensemble with a taupe carry purse, white sneakers, and gold earrings.
The six-time Golden Globe winner was also observed returning to her vehicle with two cartons of Lu Petit Ecolier European dark chocolate biscuits, which are priced at $5.49.
It began to sprinkle as she entered the passenger seat of a white SUV, and a man held an umbrella over her head.
The Oscar recipient has a plethora of unforgettable roles as a star of the stage and the screen throughout her seven-decade career.
However, it is arguable that none of them are more iconic than Mary Poppins, the Walt Disney film directed by Robert Stevenson and featuring melodies written and composed by the Sherman Brothers.
Andrews’ debut feature film, which blends live-action and animation, was released in 1964 and ultimately earned her the Academy Award for Best Actress.
During an interview with Vanity Fair last year, the Surrey, England native disclosed that the music was the initial factor that captivated her and drawn her to the role.
“I had never done anything like it before in my life.” It was, of course, for Walt Disney, and the melodies in Mary Poppins had a Vaudeville quality, as Andrews explained.
“I believe it was the music that drew me to the role, as it was reminiscent of the type of music that is heard in English vaudeville, such as Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and Jolly Holiday.”
