Red Rock Press presents "VANITY: The Art of Looking Good"

VANITY: The Art of Looking Good
By Linda Abrams
Hardcover, $21.95
Only $20 here

This spectacularly illustrated book is a witty exploration of what men and women have done to look good since the beginning of fashion history.

Self-adornment appears a universal urge, whether followed for tribal or class designation or to show off — which really means trying to move up in status. Chasing style, even suffering for it, is a race that started millennia ago. We celebrate ourselves, our social group and try to heighten sexual allure in what we wear and how we decorate our skin. To be human is to dress up.

This dazzling book will give you many creative ideas (in clothes and personal beauty) to enhance your personal look.

Linda Abrams is a TV producer and former Washington Post Fashion Editor.
