Vintage Vixen Reviews Affordable Couture: A New Fashion Book


Vintage Vixen has a really cool blog and she reviewed the new fashion book I wrote with Jemi Armstrong,
"Affordable Couture: A Guide to Buying and Collecting Couture."
I'm really happy Vintage Vixen liked the book and shared it with her readers.
It's the perfect gift for anyone who loves runway fashion and wants to know how to become a fashion insider.
Illustration by Jemi Armstrong,  co-author "Affordable Couture."
Affordable Couture is full of Jemi's fabulous fashion illustrations and an international directory of the best places to pay less for couture, vintage couture, high-end designer and vintage clothing in six cities.
Here's a link to her review: Vintage Vixen: Let's Go To Bed (Plus a Giveaway)

It's a small world, even if you wear a larger size. If you don't read the business pages, you might not know that PPR, the parent company of Gucci, owns OneStopPlus, a popular online shopping mall.  
Francois-Henri Pinault, head of PPR, is the same  man who is married to Selma Hayek but has a love child with supermodel Linda Evangelista.
