![]() ![]() When I read about her book "Allure", co-created with Christopher Hemphill and with a foreword written by one of my favorite American designers Marc Jacobs, I wasn't sure what to expect. With Vreeland's help I was able to create my own style that set me apart but also allowed me to always be appropriately attired for work, school and social occasions. Back then, in the early to late 1980's, you could go to a thrift store and find the 1950's and 1960's clothes I liked, for a song. ![]() Then, when I became a Fashion Merchandising major, at CSULA, with more style than money I again turned to her issues in the school's periodical archives for tips on how to wear my predominately vintage wardrobe. I have always been obsessed with Diana Vreeland, ever since I was a little girl, and read my mother's "Vogue" magazines back in the 1960's when Vreeland was the editor. ![]()
