Wishlist: Fashion Books

I have a pretty good collection of fashion photography books.
There are 3 more books that I would love to add to my collection.

"Pattern"

by Orla Kiely

$34.99 → $23.09 (amazon.com)

It is a pretty thick book and has a collection of her adorable retro patterns.

They also have a list of the stem print purses I love (I own two of them)

Plus, I found a photo of my favorite Orla dress "Alpine Print Dress" from A/W 2006! 

"Anna Sui "

by Andrew Bolton

$60 → $37.80 (amazon.com)

I have not had a chance of actually looking at the book yet.

But you can "click and look inside" on amazon website and it looks pretty cool with the photos of the runway shows.

One of the many things I like about this brand is their unique ad. photos.

I am hoping they have a list of that somewhere in this book.

"Alexander Mcqueen"

by Kristin Knox

$29 → $19.14 (amazon.com)

McQueen was such an amazing designer and I was very sad when I heard the news that he died early this year.

This book is not that thick but has a lot of beautiful photos.

Some fans are complaining that this book does not cover much of his early work, however, I think it is a great book to see at least how amazing he was.

Anthropologie Boots Sale!!

Anthropologie is having a pretty big Shoe Sale!
I was against booties till the other day when I went to an Anthropologie store close to my work and saw a pair of the "Old Clem's Peep Toes".
Anthro stores around my area do not carry shoes in store so I never got to try them on till now. I guess somebody returned the booties from the internet order.
Anthro shoes are expensive even when are 50% off... but at least gives me ideas what to look for in other stores.

The search continues...

Chooka Rain Boots!

I always liked rain boots. However, since I live in the sunny California, I thought I would not have a chance to wear them too much.
Till I found Chooka Rain Boots...!!
A lot of Chooka designs are very simple and many of the rain boots do not even look like rain boots.
I can wear them on the regular sunny days!

These pair would be my first choice without doubt.

Chooka "Noir Lace-Up Rain Boots"

$79.95 → $49.80

These are very cute and fashionable too.

And... the cheapest!

Chooka "Buffaro Bone Lace-Up Rain Boots"

$79.95 → $31.98

These are great for fall/winter with knee length pants.

Chooka "Herringbone Dual Buckle Rain Boots"

$65.95

These are very versatile.

Great for classic look, or for Goth/Punk Friday!

Chooka "London Town Rain Boots"

$69.95

And if I really want "Rain Boots" looking rain boots...

Chooka "Tiny Whales Rain Boots"

$59.95
