illustrated obscurity skip to main skip to sidebar illustrated obscurity and everyday luck 9 13 2015 cheap chic is back and it s just as good as ever the fashion classic first published in 1975 with an unsuccessful update in 1978 went out of print sometime in the early 80s although you could still find used copies around and first editions were recently selling for outrageous prices online happily random house has re issued cheap chic with a new forward by tim gunn i was a worried they would try to update it again but it is as it was back in the day the forward by mr gunn is excellent he hits all the high points about why the book is useful and fun the reasonable often quite funny authors encourage us to ask ourselves the most important of all fashion question who am i and how do i want the world to perceive me the original introduction is prophetic noting we stuff our closets with masses of mistakes and this was before clothing manufacture moved overseas and became really cheap their take on the subject is firm but gentle they take clothing seriously as self expression but the idea of fashion lightly your look should be in harmony with the way you live who you are and not reflect what the fashion magazines or even we might say cheap chic is divided into chapters that take apart a wide variety of looks giving you tips essentials and plenty of inspiration with an abundance of black and white illustrations such as a levi strauss illustrated ad i still want the engineer s coat greta garbo in a suit and even one of bill cunningham s hats it then offers short profiles and interviews of famous and not so famous fabulously stylish people kudos to book designer bea feitler who tied it all together my favorite chapters are classics sometimes cheap chic boils down to spending much more than you feel you can afford on the kind of classic quality clothes we talk about in this chapter we think it saves you money in the long run second string classics if you really can t afford the classics antiques it feels good to wear expensive clothes especially when someone else paid for them the first time out and work clothes since they were never designed to be in fashion they can never go out of style but there s something for everyone here i owned and treasured cheap chic in college i clearly remember taking a deep breath to pay full price for it in 1976 5 95 but the lessons i learned from it have stayed with me my whole life can t give a better recommendation than that and it s only 16 00 now go get it and be inspired full disclosure i was sent a promotional copy to review do you really think i would turn down a chance to talk about one of my favorite fashion books of all time cross posted at quotidienne blog posted by l p at 6 52 pm no

comments 6 27 2014 r i p ryder i am so sad to report we have lost our beautiful tiger dog to aggressive bone cancer the most common cause of death for retired racing greyhounds what makes it most difficult is that it was only about a month from the time we first noticed a limp and took him to the vet to where he was clearly suffering despite heavy pain medication even though he was only with us for two years he s left a very big greyhound shaped hole in our hearts our household is a much sadder place these days posted by l p at 10 11 pm 4 comments 5 19 2014 i haven t had any time at all to think about this blog and if i did i d be whinging about my 3 jobs and how much i m working how little money i m making yadda yadda yadda ok got that out of the way bottom line is i m healthy knock

terrific blog post by garance doré about women ageing fashion and how the problems is not one sided who is imposing standards on whom sales go down when clothing is shown on older models how do we get ourselves out of this particular feedback loop everyone seems to be talking about t magazine s essay about phoebe philo and quiet power dressing i had kind of hoped that power dressing was dead and buried but apparently not posted by l p at 4 20 pm 1 comment 2 15 2014 old movie love i just couldn t resist posting this video from gizmodo about criterion films they re doing such amazing work restoring movies and this is all about one of my favorites hitchcock s 1940 foreign correspondent they were in the process of restoring alfred hitchcock s 1940 espionage thriller foreign correspondent in the video above kline talks about how the first step in the process is tracking down the negative or a print that is in decent condition in this case that meant going to the library of congress which had the original negative of the film posted by l p at 2 32 pm no comments 9 04 2013 let it slide sadly i ve been letting this blog slide but i ve been focusing my efforts over at the q blog
