Rosalind’s Picks
Rosalind’s Pick: Pigtail Pals(1)
Pigtail Pals is a t-shirt company that is owned and operated by Melissa Wardy, a mom who wanted clothing for her daughter that wasn’t riddled with the typical “little girl” stereotypes. She wanted her daughter to know that becoming a princess, model, or ballerina weren’t her only options.
Rosalind’s Pick: Vintage Veronica
I just finished reading this charming book, and I thought I should share it with all the book-loving fashionistas out there.
Rosalind’s Pick: If I Stay
If I Stay (Dutton, 2009) by Gayle Forman is a beautifully written, heart wrenching young adult novel about a seventeen-year-old girl who faces an incredibly difficult choice after experiencing a family tragedy.
Rosalind’s Pick: Hungry
I am probably not the first to tell you that Hungry is a must-read this fall. The book is a first-person narrative of plus-sized model Crystal Renn and her struggles and triumphs with the modeling industry and the relentless pursuit of weight perfection.
Rosalind’s Pick: Funerals and Fly Fishing
Reminiscent of the wholesome and memorable reads of Judy Blume and Beverly Cleary, Funerals and Fly Fishing is a charming story of Brad Stanislawski, a lonely, creative kid who is sometimes picked on for his funny name and large size, who is sent reluctantly to spend his summer vacation with the grandfather he’s never met.
