{"product_id":"eccentric-glamour-creating-an-insanely-more-fabulous-you-9781416535447","title":"Eccentric Glamour: Creating an Insanely More Fabulous You","description":"\u003cb\u003eGlamorous eccentrics are irresistible people.\u003c\/b\u003e They are irreverent, occasionally impertinent, a tad mysterious, charming, often self-invented, good at applying eyeliner, and above all nonconformist. They are a fabulous confection of style, self-empowerment, and black patent sling backs. Everyone wants to be one, but how? Ubiquitous style guru Simon Doonan has the answer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e By no means a typical how-to manual, \u003ci\u003eEccentric Glamour\u003c\/i\u003e is a mixture of cultural commentary and personal disclosure, generously seasoned with gushings of wildly dictatorial, provocative, and reckless style advice. Through cautionary tales and inspirational examples, Doonan shows how to develop your own brand of eccentric glamour -- by magnifying everything that is already unique and idiosyncratic about you. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In these comic essays, interspersed with one-on-one interviews with some of the world's most glamorous eccentrics (including Iman, Lucy Liu, Tilda Swinton, Malcolm Gladwell, and many more), Simon Doonan offers the women of America an alternative to the cheapness and tackiness that currently pass for personal style. \u003ci\u003eEccentric Glamour\u003c\/i\u003e is intended as an antidote to the epidemic of slutty dressing and porno-chic that has taken over since the arrival of Paris Hilton and Anna Nicole Smith (may she rest in peace). While the typical TV boobs 'n' Botox makeovers force every woman to look the same, the transformations this book strives to inspire are the very opposite. Dressing like a ho is not just bad taste but boring! In Simon Doonan's book, conformity is the only crime and dressing down the only faux pas. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Eccentric Glamour is every woman's birthright. \u003cb\u003eSO SAY NO TO HO!\u003c\/b\u003e...and yes to \u003cb\u003eECCENTRIC GLAMOUR!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon Doonan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416535447\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSimon Doonan\u003c\/b\u003e is the bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eWacky Chicks\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eConfessions of a Window Dresser.\u003c\/i\u003e In addition to his role as creative director of Barneys New York, Simon writes the \"Simon Says\" column for \u003ci\u003eThe New York Observer.\u003c\/i\u003e He frequently contributes observations and opinions to myriad other publications and television shows.
