Monday Morning Inspiration

I thought I would take a little different twist on this week's Monday Morning Inspiration post. My sister-in-law is becoming a very lovely assistant as she seems to find some of the best material that she thinks I might enjoy and of course, if I enjoy it, you might as well :) She sent me a link to this article from the Seattle Times. The article showcases 5 books that anyone interested in fashion and style would enjoy. I have not read any of the books, but they all look especially interesting.
Here's the list.. Just click on the title and you will be taken to a link. Be sure to look for them at your local library too!
Women in Clothes
Women in Clothes [Cover]
Eula, Master of Twentieth Century Fashion Illustration

Worn Stories

Vogue and The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute
Vogue Book Cover
Haute Couture Ateliers
Haute Couture Ateliers: The Artisans of Fashion


One last book that is not on the list, but I thought you might like is
A History of the Paper Pattern Industry


The book about Eula is on the top of my list! What a lovely book, and the illustrations are beautiful.
Hopefully you have a little money leftover from your holiday spending or maybe Santa left a little behind ;)
Happy Reading!
Rhonda
