Height of Fashion

Summary: If you've got style, it always shows.
Review: I picked this book up at my local bookstore and just couldn't put it down. I eventually ordered it from Amazon and have been recommending it to all my friends. Besides the fact that it's full of insider media types and celebrities, one of the most fun aspects about this book is that it proves a point: style is all about attitude. The people in this book have plenty of both. Whenever I feel self-conscious about my personal style, I'll think of the brave souls in Height of Fashion, and then go for my look.

Summary: Mostly candids,more amusing than anything
Review: Most of the photos in this charming book are candids,taken by non-professionals,in fact often by the subjects' family members or friends.There IS one STUNNER of Tracee Elliss Ross(Diana's daughter) by Mario Testino that is worth the price of the book alone.But the others show the subjects not at their HEIGHT of fashion,it seems to me,but in their most embarrassing fashion faux pas fazes,when they were following ridiculous(often 80's) trends.Also,many of the people submitted pics of themselves as children,so if you're expecting adult models and celebrities,you'll find few here.Still,I was quite pleased with the book.Even the design of it is pleasing,the size,the quality of the paper e.t.c.All in all,pretty cool.
