Bookworm

I love books. Not kindles or any other electronic device, but good old fashioned paper books.

I've been staring at my sad looking bookcase for a few days now and I've decided to give it a much needed overhaul. I'm going to group my books together by colored spine as pictured above but I also love the idea of displaying books both horizontally and vertically, unfortunately my space is not that big. I'll take a photo once I'm done!

Speaking of books, what are some of your favorite reads?

Little Red Book

Ines de la Fressange is the quintessential Parisian. Gorgeous at 53 and with great personal style she is more than qualified to release this little red book, Parisian Chic. From the "Magnificent Seven" list to makeup and beauty tips this book will have you looking like you were born with innate style.

Many of the photographs are of her equally as gorgeous daughter Nine D'Urso, who by the way has just been chosen as the international face of Bottega Veneta's inaugural fragrance.

Can't wait to get my hands on this style bible.

Reading

The Invisible Bridge by Julie Orringer has definitely made my list of top ten favorite books. Ms. Orringer tells such a compelling story that I did not want to put it down. Her research of history and architecture creates a truly believable setting for such an unbelievable story. She balances the historical events of World War II  with stunning descriptions of places and a true understanding of human feelings and nature. I did not want this 600 page book to end.
