Book Description
It's the real thing. It's about getting your life together. It's about looking damn fine. It's about man handling. It's about the casa question. About solitude. About stain removal. Whether you're a young woman just out of school and starting a career or a harriedly successful thirty-something, if you're still wasting time looking for stockings that match or struggling to keep on top of credit card bills, you need help. And not a glossy monthly's unattainable idea of help, but the stuff that works--the nuts and bolts.

Anna Johnson's Three Black Skirts is the book that delivers. In a voice that's knowing, smart, hip and funny--and with the author's own retro illustrations to match--Ms. Johnson cuts right to the core of the chaos that passes for life today and shows how to find order, balance, fulfillment. She covers it all: health, dating, career moves, finances, entertaining, body image, sex, and, of course, the indispensability of owning three black skirts. She offers the twenty basics for money management, and three keys for shopaholics to gain control over their passion. A workshop to build better food habits. Ten ways to get to sleep. Dress codes to the major cities. A Schmoozer's Guide to Compliments. Principles of Modern Courtship. And everything in between, from an extensive stain removal chart to eleven ideas for reawakening your spiritual life. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Couldn't live without it!
This book is a must have for every girl over 18.Best advice, great ideas and definitely the road book to life for us!

5-0 out of 5 stars So Much More
This little book is so much more than a how-to-dress manual.Style is about so much more than clothing.I knew when I read through the Acknowledgements section in the preface for this book that it was different - how could it not be when the author is thankful to Thich Nhat Hanh, Leonard Cohen, and Tom Waits among others?

I found so much inspiration to gently, effectively love myself right now in this book's first chapter that I could hardly put it down, but had to.It seemed as if each paragraph contained the author's weighty philosophy of treating yourself with respect in the way you eat, exercise, dress, love, and carry yourself through each day.I had to digest it all slowly and with savor.I could hardly wait to purchase copies for various friends and relatives!Chapters include the topics of Well-Being, Style, Life Skills, Career, Mood Management, Emotional Rescue, Spirit, and Giving Back.As an over fifty year old woman, I wish I could have gotten hold of this book while I was in high school.It could've saved me a LOT of time, effort, and grief.As of today, I find it refreshingly candid, full of humor and great tips for getting the most out of life and how to avoid common mistakes in self perception, finances, buying clothing, living with dignity, and seeing the humor in some of our situations instead of taking ourselves so seriously.It has a feminist slant, believe it or not, in wanting each of us to appreciate who we are and value ourselves as pearls beyond price.Another book I really appreciated reading for the fun of it and some great tips was The Bombshell Manual of Style by Laren Stoner.

2-0 out of 5 stars Safe gift for someone you don't know well
It's hard to understand who might benefit from buying this book for (probably) herself. It comprises a series of vague exhortations to do this or that (such as change the makeup you use as you age) in situations here or there, with an extreme dearth of specifics.
There was a lot of information here that was new to me (e.g., how and why to hand bias-cut clothing in a closet), but I suspect that most of the information was new for me because I'm a man and do not often deal with many of the issues covered here. It would be unlikely that women who do deal with the topics covered have not come to the same conclusions Johnson does; hence, there doesn't seem to be much utile here. On the other hand, it seems more or less harmless.
The book would serve best as a gift for someone you don't know very well insofar as it looks nice and even interesting when you skim its pages. It's a different story when you scan the book, but with gifts it's the thought that counts. Giving this as a gift will convey the thought that the recipient is more or less competent in living her life but not averse to receiving advice on how to conform to the commonly accepted expectations in mainstream feminine society in the West. If you're looking for something useful for yourself, however, look elsewhere.

4-0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable, light reading
This book has some wise advice in it, and I refer to it often. I've owned it for about 5 years now.

I wouldn't recommend this book, however, because there are some things in it that I feel are inappropriate. I did physically remove one entire chapter of it, so that when someone pulls it off my shelf and thumbs through it, they won't be offended as I was when I first read it (though, I must confess that most of the books of this genre suggest or even encourage irresponsible behavior). I also exercised some artistic license and (armed with white-out and a black pen) drew clothes on some of the illustrations -- which turned out nicely.

All in all, though, the advice and illustrations are sound and charming, respectively. Just be aware that there will be some unwholesomeness to remove, if you are of the opinion that books you read should be wholesome. I check regularly to see if Anna Johnson has written any more books, because I really do enjoy her writing style and the organization she uses.

Editorial Review

Book Description
The Bolide. The Plume. The Birkin--object of lust in Sex in the City. Celebrating the must-have accessory for the fashion conscious woman, Handbags is an obsessive, irresistible visual extravaganza, featuring over 900 full-color photographs of the most luxurious, witty, covetable, talismanic examples of the bagmaker's art and history.

The iconic Hermés Kelly bag, made from first stitch to last by a single craftsperson. Judith Leiber's whimsical minaudiFres, Moschino's smiley-face bag, Elsa Schiaparelli's surrealist "bird cage," and the ne plus ultra of fashionable purses--the Chanel bag, reinvented for a new generation by Karl Lagerfeld. There are novelty bags, evening bags, sculptural bags, and class acts. Practical leather pochettes to carry a life, and elegant little reticules for nothing more than a credit card and a lipstick. Profiles of famous bagmakers: Jamin Puech, Kate Spade, Carlos Falchi, and the poet of utility, Bonnie Cashin, with her visionary "Cashin Carry" bags for Coach. Plus the anonymous Florentine artisans whose specialist leather workshops sprouted up in the 14th century.

A labor of love written by Anna Johnson, author of Three Black Skirts, Handbags features over 900 bags from collections, museums, and designers around the world, most of them photographed in seductive full-color exclusively for the book. The perfectly matched complement to Shoes, Handbags is about fashion, about desire, about secrecy, craftsmanship, art, and imagination as well as about the changing roles of women--everything that's packed into every important bag. Includes timelines, fascinating captions, and the "It" bags--anyone for a Fendi baguette? ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Lovely Eye Candy
Handbags is a light-weight (as in no information on what makes a great handbag great) lots of very good photographs of iconic "classic" and "it" bags. Lovely biographical sketches of taste-making handbag designers and many historical bags and historical details (but not adequate if you are doing historical costumes). One brief sketch of how a very high-quality (Hermes) bag is constructed. All in all a lovely read, though, because of the pictures.

5-0 out of 5 stars wonderful book with historical information
Another excellent book on handbags with beautiful photographs and descriptions by designer/historical context.

5-0 out of 5 stars Handbags
This is a great product because it shows you all the collection of purses that have been made. It has the expensive ones and the wierd ones and how they are made popular.

3-0 out of 5 stars Cute, but small
I somehow thought this would be a much larger book.It's quite small in size.Still it's lots of fun to see all the variety of handbags over time.It's a light hearted subject.

4-0 out of 5 stars MY MOM BOUGHT HER FIRST BIRKIN FROM HALEY'S COUTURE, AND ANOTHER FROM MIGHTY KISMET AFTER READING THIS BOOK!
This book helped my mom and I understand the different handbags out there that are really looked at as high fasion. We are both into fashion and after reading this book, she bought two authentic Hermes birkins - WOW!! - from Haleys Couture Galleria aka hermes galleria and MightyKismet. Both excessively nice ladies. Awesome news for us. We recommend this book as it helps you learn all of the styles out there and is really like one big encyclopedia. Awesome. Thanks. ... Read more

Book Description
A Yummy Mummy strides through maternity with style, passion, savvy, a healthy sense of self, and killer cleavage. She soars above the domestic rut, craves creative revelation, and turns motherhood into an adventure–an art rather than a skill.

The Yummy Mummy Manifesto, Anna Johnson’s unique mix of advice, do-it-yourself ideas, riffs, and personal reflections about motherhood, shows how to make the most important job you’ll ever have more delicious in every detail. Blooming with comforting and entertaining guidance on everything from style and decor to nutrition and finding your own parenting approach, this book provides something for every new mother or hot mama-to-be, covering breast-feeding basics, dressing the in-between body, emotional roadblocks, quirky mile stones, and throwing a simple but chic first birthday party. Johnson liberates the pregnant belly from the laws of good taste–yes, you can rock horizontal stripes, big polka dots, and crazy, large floral prints–and shares ways to decorate the nursery without resorting to duckling yellow wallpaper and gingham dust ruffles. Most important, through it all, she reveals how to hold onto your spirit, creativity, wit, and sensuality.

Hilarious, enlightening, practical, candid–and joyously illustrated–The Yummy Mummy Manifesto does maternity with flair, heart, and utter bliss. ... Read more

A Place Within inspired positive change in my life in many emotional and spiritual ways.It showed me how to look at life and its small miracles with more appreciation. I learned to slow down and live life day by day by letting love blossom into my world.Reading this book brought me to a certain serene peaceful place in my mind that exists in everyone but is lost in our busy lives. ...
