Essential

I just discovered another great style book. Nina Garcia's (of Project Runway fame) '08 book The One Hundred is a cool, alphabetical listing of the 100 things no one should be without. Normally, these lists are pretty boring. They have the same things, over and over...the LBD, Chanel quilted bag, a trench coat. Well, this list has those things...and so much more. Plus (and this is the real reason I love the book) it is illustrated by Ruben Toledo (no photos :) whose fashion drawings are my absolute fave.
