Savvy Books: The Dress - 100 Iconic Moments in Fashion

I stumbled upon Megan Hess' instagram account and fell in love with her illustrations.  When I found out that she had a couple of books out, I knew that I needed to have one of them.  The Dress - 100 Iconic Moments in Fashion is a perfect addition to my desk.

The book is beautifully illustrated with iconic dresses and is broken out into six sections: Designers, Icons, Weddings, Music, Film and Oscars.  In the book each dress has a beautiful illustration and then a paragraph on the designer, the dress and in some cases who wore the dress.

The Dress is a perfect holiday gift for all of those fashionistas that are looking for a fabulous coffee table or pretty addition and inspiration to your desk.

Cheers to the Weekend - Mini ALT

I don't know about you guys but this has been the longest short week ever!  It could have something to do with the cold that has been brewing in my head.

I've also had a serious case of ALT Summit envy!  I went last year, but I couldn't get a ticket this year, since they sold out in a half hour!  Since I couldn't make it I decided to give myself my own mini ALT sessions by finally finishing up reading Blog, Inc. by the adorable Joy Cho of Oh Joy.  Not only does she have some amazing tips on blogging, but she also has some pretty fantastic bloggers who are featured in the book.  They answer some of those questions you have always wanted to ask them but never could get up the gumption to ask.  If you are serious about blogging, this is definitely the book to read.   

If you don't own the book but want a taste of ALT, I highly recommend checking out the #altsummit hashtag on Twitter to pick up helpful tips shared from bloggers that attended ALT.

This weekend is pretty low key and we don't have a lot of plans, which is just what the doctor ordered!  What are your plans for the weekend?

Cheers,
