So delightful! Ms. Brooks combines tons of photos of awesomely dressed people from the past and present with her own personal dress history and musings on being stylish, rather than just fashionable.
She has lots of personal experience on the high end of style(served as a 'muse' for the label Tuleh, Lily Pulitzer designed a print specifically for her mom's bridesmaids' dresses). But she is also mindful of the style scores to be found in thrift stores, flea markets and army/navy stores.
I really enjoyed her taxonomy of style and her excellent lists of movies that feature certain types of dress! Really, the whole book is well-designed, original and lovely.
