In addition to the patterned tights that have been making my heart go pitter-patter, Anthropologie has the bookworm side of me absolutely giddy. Many of the boutique's fabulous books would make fine additions to my bookshelf which, at the moment, is a haphazard mix of young adult novels (Gossip Girl, Violet On the Runway) and classic literature (The Portable Dorothy Parker, The Beautiful and The Damned)
The Gospel According to Coco Chanel: advice for living like a lady from the most influential womenswear designer of all time.
I Know How To Cook: 945 glorious pages of the most fabulous French recipes, finally printed in English and bound with this adorable new cover.
Taschen's New York: the best of the Big Apple, from "the elegant new Bowery Hotel, in Manhattan's latest it-neighborhood, the Lower East Side" to "cranberry muffins from the City Bakery at Union Square" to "second-hand designer clothes at Fisch for the Hip."
My World of Fashion: created by a fashion illustrator, this book would be a perfect gift for budding fashionistas and style connoisseurs alike. My kind of coloring book!
What book is on your nightstand at the moment? I just finished Truman Capote's Breakfast at Tiffany's and it was marvelous.
