elizabeth holmes
>> mini review: in the fall of 2019, i read american royals. it catapulted me from uninterested to full-fledged royal obsessed. (not-so-fun fact: princess diana died on my 11th birthday, so that's where my mind always went when thinking of the royals. i have vivid memories of that birthday.) i started reading more about 'the firm' + then i binged all four season of 'the crown'. and here i am, reading about the history of royal fashion + how it tells a story. i would not call myself a fashionista, but i looooove celebrity fashion + street style! this book does a brilliant job of showcasing all facets of what the royals wear (and what they say when they wear it!)
>> what i liked: the photos, of course! and i love how holmes shared each woman's story with thoughtful curation: the queen's childhood, diana's hospitality, kate's style evolution, + meghan's chic style.
>> what i didn't like: the overuse of the word, sartorial. like- multiple times on one page. overkill.
>> you might like this book if: you love the royals + you love fashion.
>> this book may not be for you if: you don't like fashion or the royals.
>> read this if you liked: the crown, fashion, the royal family.
ratings- (1-5; 1: mild/casually mentioned, 5: extreme)
language/sex/violence/drugs/drinking: it's a book about fashion, so none.
