Have a friend who spends just a little too much time reading Us Weekly? Tried and tried again to get her to trade those tabloid rags for something more substantial? Well, this gift giving season, improve her intellect by buying her one of these fab fashion books for the holidays... These coffee table books may not be Proust, but at least they don't celebrate Lindsay Lohan's once a day Starbucks trip like it's the next coming of the Beatles.
To celebrate a fabulous 40 years in the fashion business,
Ralph Lauren has come out with a new book that captures his career and is filled to the brim with images of his runway shows, collections, and advertising campaigns. Looking to really splurge? Get the
Deluxe Edition. For a steep 400 bucks, it comes in a crocodile embossed leather case with a nickel title plate.
So you know who designs the clothes, but do you know the style arbiters behind the scenes? The ones who ultimately declare what and more importantly, who... is in and who is out? In
Stylist: The Interpreters of Fashion, you'll encounter the top stylists and learn how these savvy individuals change the way you dress...
Never made it to one of the infamous
Misshapes parties? Their young downtown hipster scene made some serious headlines... (from People to Paper, Nylon and even the New York Times.) So get in on the action with this collection of fashion portraits, over 2,000 wacky and wonderful images in all.
Looking for a less serious gift idea? This adorable little
Shoes: Page-A-Day Calendar has some of the most swoon-worthy kicks on its pages. Shoe fiends will love every shoe on its pages, from modern Manolos to vintage gems. And at only 10 bucks, it's an simple, easy gift for your favorite shoe-obsessed friend.
