Love, Loss, and What I Wore on Stage by Llene Beckerman

First to recommend

Description

Ilene Beckerman's memoir "Love, loss and What I Wore" poignantly and humorously conveyed the memories attached to various pieces of clothing she owned. And, now, ever so cleverly, Nora and Delia Ephron have adapted this fashion-inspired tale for the stage. A rotating cast of characters, including Meg Ryan, Rosie O'Donnell, Rita Wilson and Kristin Chenoweth, will bring their own unique twist to the tale. If you cannot catch it on stage, you can still participate by submitting your own story to ELLE magazine. What YOU wore may just become the next off-Broadway hit. (via ELLE)

Maybe high school doesn't always rock but this movie - along with its killer soundtrack - will alleviate the boredom and help put bullies into perspective. Moviegoer bonus: an abbreviated tour of CBGB's.

See Jane Work: Webster's Fashion Color Dictionary

First to recommend

Description

'Tis true that you can Google for word definitions, synonyms, antonyms, homonyms and such but something about the physical presence of a dictionary makes a desk seem more serious, studious even. And in your choice of color, it becomes an objet de art as well as a reference tool. (via Someone Spoil Me)

Barnes and Noble: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

First to recommend

Description

Escape to the land of the midnight sun for a dark mystery that has been decades in the making of the Vanger family history. As this story slowly and seductively unravels, the infamous girl with the dragoon tattoo reveals herself to be much more than the sum of her ink. A superb summer read that could keep you guessing until autumn.

Amazon: The Bathers (Center for Documentary Studies/Honickman First Book Prize in) by Jennette Williams

First to recommend

Description

There are the ladies who lunch . . . and then there are the ladies that lounge. In settings reminiscent of Roman baths, the beauties inhabiting these pages define the concept of "chill". This splendid black and white documentary of fashion and leisure is sitting pretty atop my summer reading/browsing list.
