You know who I absolutely adore? Isaac Mizrahi! I just think he's super talented and adorable!...The best style book ever is How to Have Style. This book rocks! I've looked at it a million times and I find something new and inspiring each time I flip through it. His eye for what works & looks right is phenomenal! I love his work!
Just read he was on Martha's show earlier in the week...How cute is that?
OK, this book must be awesome because I did a post on it a little while back too!

Great minds KJ...great minds :)
you know, i kinda knew you did a post on this, but hey! he's a genius so i guess 2 tributes are better than one!
ReplyDeletei picked it up at the library a few months back and i remember how inspirational it turned out to be.. very much like the Sartorialist book... i can go through a few pages of that book each night before bedtime and i swear i feel a bit peppier and happier.... i feel the same w. isaac's book!
yay!
also, i remember you did a few of these style book posts..one on nina garcia comes to mind.
ReplyDeletewell, i did go out and get her 100 book and i loved loved it!!! that's another one that is just gorgeous...but ruben's illustrations are a huge part of the rockin' genius on that one!
I have to tell you, I totally LOVE the blogs that we do on the same subject because it proves one things for sure ... we should totally be blogging together.
ReplyDeleteI have had pretty bad luck with style books in the past but Isaac's and Nina Garcia's are 2 exceptions. They are great and go back to them all the time.
And ydou are so right about Ruben Toledo's drawings...genius!
