THE PERFECT CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR FANS OF ROYAL FASHION This beautiful
book takes a photographic journey through Queen Elizabeth II's ten
decades of colour-blocked style. The photographs, which span the
colours of the rainbow and a century of style, are gloriously
accessorised with captions and commentary by journalist and
broadcaster Sali Hughes. From the dusky pinks the Queen wore in
girlhood all the way through to #NeonAt90, by way of that hat she
wore on the announcement of Brexit, and not forgetting her trusty
Launer handbag ever at her side, this must-have collection
celebrates the iconic fashion statements of our beloved,
longest-reigning and most vibrant monarch.
The only lie told more often than "No, that looks totally cute on
you" and "I got AIDS through oral" is "It gets better." Well, a
lotta times it don't. Sometimes it just sucks less. But I promise
you: where there's a Willam, there's a way. But this isn't all
about me (for once). It's about you and how you can Suck Less at a
variety of things drag queens are so much better at than the
average person. I've got clap backs and life hacks and tips on
classing up a simple grab-and-run lifting spree to the much more
dignified act of larceny. Super-important life stuff with my own
special, secret fag- swag sauce. So welcome to Willam's School of
Bitchcraft and Wiggotry. Class is in session. With a foreword from
Neil Patrick Harris.
'An inspiring guide to developing your personal brand, achieving
your career goals and shaping the future of work' Red 'Everything
every career woman needs to know and yet is rarely shared so
honestly' Anya Hindmarch 'Refreshingly relevant and practical'
Roksanda Ilincic Women have made great advances in the workplace,
but despite that - and the overwhelming amount of career advice out
there - the same questions continue to arise: how to succeed in a
man's world, how to combine a career with a family, how to be
authentic and fit in, and whether it is even possible to achieve a
work-life balance while chasing career goals. Unfortunately, much
of the advice women are offered is badly out of date and lacking in
'cut-to-the-chase' strategies that really tally with their
experience of the workplace now. What's more, the advice often
tends to be defensive, focused on overcoming obstacles rather than
drawing upon strengths. Style and Substance starts from a very
different perspective. Written by Helena Morrissey, who has learned
through her own experiences as a woman in the workplace and as a
business leader, it will help you understand what really matters
when it comes to career progression today, whatever your age,
situation and aspirations. Style and Substance will show you how to
build your own style - your personal brand - and how to have
confidence in it, and in yourself. Once you realise how much agency
you have and the steps that you can take to look the part, sound
the part, feel the part and therefore be the part, you'll be
empowered to achieve your goals in your own way, secure in who you
are and what you have to offer.
