VACATION TIME: GET YOUR BOOK GAME ON

For most people, vacation time has started. So what do you do when you’re in a foreign country, sitting on your beach chair? Exactly, you’re gonna(at least try to) read a book. 

If you’re not a regular reader, it’s always good to start out with a book about fashion, mostly it has a lot of pictures in it so you’ll look smart without reading too much! A good start of your summer education is Take Ivy:

This book is extremely popular at the moment, it was even translated into Dutch.

While most of you knew about this book, not everyone knows a sequal to this book is coming out in July, it’s called Take Ivy 8! I’ve read the original about 1432422 times so I’ll frequently check amazon next month and tell you guys when it’s for sale.

The third book I want to tell about is Preppy. According to its creators, this book is going to be the next Prep Bible, with never before published stories and pictures. 

”The authoritative fashion history of the roots, growth, and offshoots of the quintessentially American preppy style.  Preppy offers the first definitive and in-depth volume on preppy fashion, exploring its evolution from its pragmatic origins and presence on elite Eastern campuses in America to its profound influence internationally and metamorphosis on the runway. For the first time, the preppy story is told completely and beautifully with iconic and never-before-published archival and editorial photographs and personal snapshots from the original Ivy elites.” 

The book won’t come out till October 4th but you can pre-order it here. It will definately be on my bookshelf, happy reading!
