I'm a BOOK FANATIC! I own a ton of them & STILL find myself buying more!! It's really hard not to when so many amazing titles keep popping up all over the place.
I also get BOOKS sent to me by publishing companies, but when I'm in IMPATIENT I'll buy a copy myself!
Today, I'm reviewing ALLEGRA HICKS, 'An Eye For Design' by Abrams Books. I love textiles & am always so INSPIRED by them... this book was a must-have for me! This title contains 224 pages of full COLOR and is only $26.

Here's a little info on Allegra Hicks: She's a London-based fashion & lifestyle designer whose line of luxury homewares, and accessories is sold all over the world in department stores and boutiques as well as in her namesake store in London! She's quite well known for her unique textile designs, which she uses in her interiors as well as her popular fashion line.
Another book cover that remind me of textiles is 'Glamorous Rooms' by Jan Showers (Leopard Print cover) which I blogged about here.

Hi, I love your blog and visit almost daily, but the one thing that let's me down are your book reviews.
ReplyDeleteThey're not so much reviews, more pictures of the book. Nothing on what the book is about, the down sides (if they have any). To me the reviews are too simple and it doesn't feel like you've actually read the book. Just my 2 cents
I have it and LOVE it!
