Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Books

Gigi Garner (daughter of the very beloved James Garner) has done some interesting things in her life.

She's been a private investigator, like Jim Rockford, actress, board certified cosmetologist, jewelry designer and the author of the The Cop Cookbook, with 300 recipes from actors who played cops on TV and in the movies.

With a background like that, you can imagine that she has a few tips and tricks to share with the girls.

Book Review: "Forgotten Fashion: An Illustrated Faux History of Outrageous Trends and Their Untimely Demise"

Posted Sep 16th 2008 at 5:04PM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Runway Trends, Books

The publishers of the new book, Forgotten Fashion: An Illustrated Faux History of Outrageous Trends and Their Untimely Demise by Kate Hahn, swear that it is a parody of the fashion world. Just for laughs!

The book describes 28 faux fashions that took the world by storm then faded away, all of them such dead on parodies you'll keep checking to make sure this is a humor, not history, book.

And it is totally funny. But after reading it, we have to admit, the fashion world is so over the top that these humorous essays seem completely plausible!

Sex and the City, The Movie: The book review

Posted Jun 11th 2008 at 10:51AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Books

You might be curious as to why the Sex and the City movie needs a book. It's as much about the fashions as it is about the plot, so what's there to read, right? Well, let us tell you -- a lot.

We received a copy of Sex and the City: The Movie from our friends at Harper Collins, who warned us that the book gives away the plot, so to be sure to see the movie first. This was totally true, so consider yourself warned.
