Since about the ninth grade I’ve had a hobby of reading fashion autobiographies and how-to’s. During my recent internship with Seattle wardrobe stylist Tannya Bernadette I noticed she had quite an impressive library of fashion books. Yesterday while organizing her books I came across celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe’s book From A to Zoe. Last night while reading it on the 2 hour bus ride home I got to thinking about how not fashion but style is created. Through visuals and the gift of god of course I have inherited the gift I combining unusual pieces to an outfit that no other person would it went with,
Back to fashion books I finished reading Rachel Zoe’s and I began to toying with the idea of revamping my own personal style. I noticed that I have a knack for buying the craziest dress and handbags (Shannon would say). Since I finished that book in one night I’m off to reading Victoria Beckham’s personal style guide. Two chapters in I must say she knows her stuff especially when it comes to the art of buying jeans. My favorite part so far is when she claims she just got lucky “If you look at me I have quite normal hair, body type, I just simply got lucky”.
