Are we living in the “fugliest” era of all time? Fashion bloggers, Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan of Go Fug Yourself think so.
And to mark this moment in history they’ve written a book that’s just as addictive as their blog.
Go Fug Yourself presents The Fug Awards, dishes out awards such as, “The Sag Awards”, “Put it away” and “The Cher-Alike” to those celebrities responsible for the most atrocious crimes against fashion.

I’ve had a review copy of fashion editor, Hadley Freeman’s new book for a while now but only just recently managed to sit down and have a proper read of the fashion bible that’s being dubbed an “A-Z of fashion and style”.
It’s titled The Meaning of Sunglasses
“Fashion journalists like to think that they are the most important people at the show and the sit on the sidelines like Roman emperors while the designer waits with bated breath to see if their manicured thumb will point up or down. They are disabused of this illusion when they are kept waiting for two hours……because front-row guest Tori Spelling hasn’t arrived yet.”

Upon first glance of the title, “Wife Dressing: The Fine Art of Being a Well-Dressed Wife”, which was first penned in 1959 by model and designer, Anne Fogarty, I instantly thought that this recently re-released “how-to” book would be outdated or even degrading for on-the-go, modern day women like ourselves.
I mean, we’ve come a long way from the days when career women were the new breed, and when wearing petticoats, pearls and white gloves at home on a Sunday afternoon were the standard.

We had a fabulous time Tuesday night at the book release party for Susan Redstone’s newly published fashion bible aptly titled “JUST TRY IT ON! A Month by Month Guide to Shopping and Style.” The soiree was held at the Alison Nelson’s Chocolate Bar in the style guru’s favourite department store in NYC, Henri Bendel, and the venue was packed and absolutely abuzz in celebration of her new book.
With years of experience in fashion journalism and as a stylist, and a self-declared thrifty shopper at heart, Susan has been a go-to style expert for fashion mags like Elle and In Style and has appeared on major network TV programs as a guest fashion commentator.

Trying to break into the “biz” but don’t know where to start? Kym Canter, creative director of J. Mandel, penned Star Von Bunny A Model Tale – an adorable tongue-in-cheek look at how a small, furry, unconventional-looking model made her way into the inner circles of fashion and Hollywood.
The book serves as a true rags to riches memoire of Star Von Bunny, a stuffed animal hailing from Hallmark, who steadily and confidently paws her way to supermodel status.
In the book, Star divulges secrets to breaking into the industry, offers health and beauty tips, favorite L.A. hangouts, and even shares personal photos of herself with high profile rock star, designer, and celebrity friends (including Bono, Beyonce, Nina Garcia, and Christie Turlington!).
