SynopsisAt once glamorous and mysterious, the WASP lifestyle has influenced countless trends in the worlds of fashion, home design, and pop culture. Today, one no longer has to be a WASP to embrace its casual-yet-elegant attitude and sense of style. With lively text and over one hundred images from world-renowned photographers, A Privileged Life: Celebrating WASP Style is the first book of its kind to unveil this rarefied way of life, one that many emulate though few truly understand. From the eclectic and well-decorated home of Sister Parish to the popular pink-and-green color combination of preppy chic to iconic photographs of the style makers who embody the WASP spirit like Grace Kelly, Truman Capote, or Jacqueline Kennedy, this book celebrates our timeless fascination with America's leisure class., At once glamorous and mysterious, the Wasp lifestyle has influenced countless trends in the worlds of fashion, home design, and pop culture.

  • Lovely book.

    I saw this book on Amazon and in bookstores. But this was a terrific value and so I ordered it. The pictures are lovely and it's a wonderful addition to my library.

  • A fun read

    I bought this book as a reference guide for creating my own signature look. That was a big mistake. There are so many ideas for outfits here that I don't know which one to wear first! This is a fun, quick read. Very relaxed and cheeky fun.
