Summer Reading List

Hello!

Sorry for the absence of any new posts! It has been a busy couple of weeks in the Lady of Brisvegas household 

However with a Christmas and New Year break on it's way - it's means more time for blogging and other things such as getting stuck into my reading list. 

This morning I was bit self indulgent and laid in bed with a cup of tea (Earl Grey of course!) to finish Diane Van Furstenberg's memoirs 'The Women I wanted to be'. It was only fitting after I binged watch 'House of DVF' that I had been recording over the last few weeks that I finally finish this book.

 'The Women I wanted to be' - a must read!

Much to Lord of Brisvegas's horror I am addicted to all sorts of reality or 'trash' television such as 'Keeping up with the Kardashians (or to be perfectly honest anything on the 'E' channel). 

As I am a big fan of the wrap dress due to being a simple elegant choice out of the wardrobe and it happens to fit my busty hourglass figure well - it was great to find out more about the lady who invented it. From her days of a newly married young mum making it in the fashion industry to her battle with cancer I loved every page.

Do yourself a favour and hot foot it to the library, bookstore or kindle store to grab a copy before Christmas!


Getting to the end of this book was worth the guilt of missing a pilates class at the gym.

Now that I have finished DVF's memoirs I am able to delve into the following summer reading list:

The Rumour Mill - Roxy Jacenko

Lean In - Women, Work and the Will to Lead - Sheryl Sandberg

Let me know what is on your summer reading list!

To end this long overdue post is my favourite song of the week

The Magician - Sunlight
