GALADRIEL, LORD OF THE RINGS
If you follow my tweets, you’ll know that I have a mild obsession with Lord of the Rings…just when you thought I was cool. Anyway, I took a stab at Galadriel the queen of Lothlorien. She’s been around Middle Earth forever and was given one of the original rings way back in the day. She wasn’t a major character in the story but she was certainly a wise one. Anyway, elves...

QUEEN ELIZABETH THE BAMF
You see this? You see this right here? This is Queen Elizabeth I. She was pretty much the most badass monarch to grace England…right up there with Eleanor of Aquitane and Queen Vicky (Victoria and I were on a nickname basis.) I’m sure you all know her well from your high school history classes and various wikipedia adventures so I won’t get into it. But let’s just say if...

JOAN OF ARC
Ahoy mateys! So, as Textbook is now almost a year and half old, I seem to be running out of ideas. Luckily, the seasons of fashion change giving me new ways to experiment. Having said that, I’d like to revisit Joan of Arc. Our heroine is responsible for bringing a nation together in a time of great crisis and unrest. As fate would have it, political turmoil and intrigue put Joan to a...

LANVIN LOVES H&M
So, yesterday I had the opportunity to check out the Lanvin <3 H&M collection. Honestly, we’ve all seen these collabs before and you can never be too sure if it’s going to be a success. Oftentimes a designer’s DNA is restricted when working with any mass retailer and you don’t get a true representation. I don’t think anybody could say that about...

BELLE, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

CARE PACKAGE FROM THREADLESS
A couple weeks ago I got a package from Threadless. I’ve been a fan of Threadless for some time, they basically give anybody the chance to have their design produced on a t-shirt. Users upload designs, the community votes and the winners get a chunk of cash and bragging rights. They recently launched a line called “Threadless Select” that are community designs produced on higher...

SALLY FROM HALLOWEEN TOWN
Happy Halloween tumblr friends. In the spirit of the holiday, I took a stab at styling Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas. If I know tumblr like I think I do, you all know the story very well. Also, the first dress is scary similar to what Sally wears in the movie. Hope you all have fun tonight, I’m on candy duty at Casa Jannuzzi…mmm candy. 1. I am the wind blowing through your...

You just made my day. Forget Nietzsche, I'd much rather listen to you wax philosophical... in pictures. About literary figures. <3

sophistication-with-a-wink asked: You made me fall in love right at "What Would Holden Caulfield Wear". Thank you for existing.
Anonymous asked: Sorry for bugging, but I would love to see your stylings of Edmund and Susan Pevensie, especially Susan, the girl defected from Narnia for clothes and boys - no way she didn't have some kick-ass taste in threads.

SUSAN PEVENSIE, NARNIAN OR NOT
So, if you haven’t read the Chronicles of Narnia (the Chronic-WHAT?!-Cles of Narnia) you best get to steppin’ to your local library and read them. However, knowing my followers as I do, I’m sure you’re all quite familiar with at least one of the stories. Let’s talk about Susan, she was great in the beginning, alright in the middle but then she just forgets all about...
