The Little Black Book of Style by Nina Garcia

5.0

This was a lovely book. Sometimes you need someone to remind you of the obvious- especially in a world where so many things are happening at once and over and over again. My point is: life's confusing, and finding ways to express yourself in a clear, chic way via your closet is a great stress relief.

My mother gifted me this book when I was around 14 or so? It was basically an attempt to teach me the basics of fashion and style since the I was living away from home. To be completely honest, while my mother has excellent taste I do not. This book was such a blessing.

The first part consists of lots of awesome tips on pretty much each area of fashion: organization, necessary items, and finding inspiration. The parts that follow are little anecdotes on what to wear and when to wear it, movies to watch and be inspired by and such... And the ending consists of wonderful q & a with fashion's biggest names.

I am so thankful for this book. It really helped teach me to put decade over designer/brand and be confident in my style choices.

Every women is her own fashion icon!
