Styled By Books gets invaded by babies today, featuring the fun picture book Penguins Love Colors by Sarah Aspinall. This one came out a few years ago, but I was inspired to bust it out when the twins & I both wore rainbow outfits for my oldest niece's birthday earlier this summer! My dress is... Continue Reading →

Well Met: Styled By Books
OKAY, okay ... confession. This isn't really a Styled By Books post. Not in the way I typically define "Styled By Books," which I sort of view as a book-ish twist on the concept of Disneybounding. That is, dressing in an outfit of everyday clothes that is inspired by and reflects the colors/look/feel of a... Continue Reading →

The Black Coats by Colleen Oakes is about a secretive organization that seeks out justice against the men who harm women. But are these acts of vigilantism really justice, or just revenge? This book is a BIG MOOD for me (and... Continue Reading →

Erin Morgenstern has a new book coming out later this year, making it the perfect time to revist her lush and magical 2011 novel, The Night Circus. I absolutely loved this book (and am very much overdue for a re-read one of these days), and the aesthetics of both the cover itself and Morgenstern's descriptions... Continue Reading →
