Fun book find

At the thrift store adjacent to my office (which got a monster donation of sewing patterns and magazines the other day, properly culled through immediately by yours truly), I found a 1983 book called "I Haven't a Thing to Wear!" by Judith Keith (her quotation marks, not mine).



I got it because there were illustrations (and because paperbacks are 35 cents), but it's actually a very good, timeless book of advice. Apparently Ms. Keith, beginning in the 1950s, traveled all over giving presentations to women about how to dress and how to build a classic wardrobe. There's a section discussing body types and what silhouettes work and don't work, a little bit of color theory, and just a lot of all-around advice.

You could probably find a used copy if you looked.

Sorry I haven't been blogging much... who knew work was so much WORK?
