Description

Luxury living can still be achieved on a budget. "Savvy Chic" will teach you how to entertain, decorate, travel, and dress for less. In elegant prose, Anna Johnson combines a unique mix of anecdote, riff, and how-to, and shares her secrets of survivalist chic. She mixes the passionate with the practical to come up dozens of ideas for enhancing your lifestyle without killing your bank account: Decorating - create exquisite curtains with Chinese lace tablecloths bought for pennies in Chinatown; Style - master the art of wearing thrift-store vintage by figuring out your best decade: forties for pear shapes versus thirties or sixties for narrow hips; Travel - everything from faking resort chic in Capri to making a one star hotel room feel like home; Leisure - on a hot summer day create a luxurious in-home bathroom spa by dressing in a light kimono and cotton slippers, and soaking in a cool tub with a plate of sliced mango; and, Entertaining - abundant food is more impressive than expensive food - a mountain of clams steamed in a simple tomato broth with warm baguette costs little and immediately sets a decadent mood. Anna's philosophy runs throughout "Savvy Chic": good taste on the cheap is the backbone of libertine thrift, but more important still is the sense of abundance, generosity, and fun that come from re-inventing the rules. Adorned with gorgeous four-color illustrations, "Savvy Chic" is perfect for any woman looking to save money without skimping on style.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
