Great books never go out of style, and the New York Times recently re-recommended this classic bestseller, an illustrated gem, "Ilene Beckerman's heavy-hitting mini-memoir of a stylish life.”
Beckerman’s runaway bestseller —adapted into an Off-Broadway hit by Nora and Delia Ephron — articulates something all women know: that our memories are often tied to our favorite clothes. From her Brownie uniform to her Pucci knockoff to her black strapless Rita Hayworth-style dress from the Neiman Marcus outlet store, Beckerman tells us the story of her life.
