The Collection
September 3, 2008
The best accessory for any season comes down to one simple item - A BOOK! For summer lie pool-side or beach-side with book in hand, for fall bundle up in your layered knits and head to the park for a picnic with book in hand, for winter curl up by the roaring fire donning woolly tights with book in hand, and for spring sit prim in your luscious garden with book in hand. It really goes with anything!
And when it comes to books, I recommend my most recent accessory - The Collection, by Gioia Diliberto. Every Society Girl will fall in love with the seamstress who works under the inspiring CoCo Chanel. You are thrown into Paris just after World War I when fashion has hit its peak and girls flock to the showroom to see what jersey dress Chanel will create next. The passion for designing couture clothes plays a main character and it will draw you in with each stitch.
