The short list of "Classics" in THE LITTLE BLACK BOOK OF STYLE has been the most widely excerpted portion of the book. In THE ONE HUNDRED, Nina will vastly expand this list, providing a tangible style map for women to follow, setting a distinct goal that has yet to be seen in a fashion book.
In THE LITTLE BLACK BOOK OF STYLE , Nina showed women how to appreciate themselves and trust their instincts. In book two, she wants women to go shopping -- THE ONE HUNDRED being the shopping list each woman must be armed with before heading out for the mall.
As the once Fashion Director at Elle magazine, to her new role as Fashion Director at Marie Claire, Nina has learned an indispensable fact -- women love lists. They love making them, reading about them, following them, crossing each item off, etc. THE ONE HUNDRED will be a thoroughly researched take on these attainable items, featuring Ruben Toledo's stand-out, signature illustrations. She will explore a short history of many of the items, with beautifully designed side-bars that include fun-to-know-facts, and will also summon the advice from the many expert friends she has throughout the fashion industry.
Not limited to only fashion and the essential garments, THE ONE HUNDRED will also include beauty items -- everything from lipstick shade and brand to event-specific perfume, and even a few items which may surprise some, but which every woman reaching for the style-clouds must own and use on a regular basis. THE ONE HUNDRED will be part fashion how-to, part beauty how-to, with a little Martha Stewart-esque, home-spun ingenuity for the woman wanting to look her best.
