Amanda Brooks second book "Always Pack a Party Dress" just came out. Normally I wouldn't give a book like this a second glance as I wear jeans pretty much 24-7, but since I am a fan of her home aesthetic and admirer of her fabulous personal style, I went ahead and downloaded a copy. A few chapters into it, I'm rethinking my wardrobe and may branch out a bit, maybe even try a dress?? I am still amazed that she left behind a job as fashion director of Barneys a couple years ago to pick up and move herself and her family to a farm (gorgeous as it may be - see below) in England. How many times have you daydreamed about packing up and moving far, far away to make a fresh start? Good for her for having the guts to do it. Interested in reading the book? Vote on which of Amanda's outfits featured here you like best and maybe you'll win a free copy (see bottom for details). Just wait till you read the part about her internship with the amazing fashion photographer Patrick Demarachelier. The good fortune that comes from being in the right place at the right time!
