Fashion Week meets the Classics! (Plus Giveaway!)

Today I have the honor of spotlighting an incredibly beautiful new set of books from Sterling Publishing.  Together with renowned fashion illustrator, Sara Singh, they have given some of our most beloved classic stories an incredibly chic facelift.  Take a look:

THE CLASSIC LINES SERIES




 The first four were released earlier this year, and now two more volumes, Emma & Great Expectations, have hit the shelves.  Aren't they stunning??  I have always loved fashion illustration and I know I'm going to have to add a few of these editions to my own shelves. 

See that lovely cover of Great Expectations?  It's hard to pick a favorite from this line, but I do LOVE the expression on Pip's face here.  Well, today, I'm giving away one copy of Great Expectations from the Classic Lines series!  Who wants it??  Enter below by October 23rd!
(I do have to keep this one US/CAN only since I'm shipping from home. Sorry!)

Cover Story: Penguin's Cool Classics!!

I've recently been scouring bookshelves for a really cool copy of Jane Eyre to add to my collection, and that let me to discovered these!! Actually, I may be late to the game since some of these have been out for awhile. But how cool are these Classic reprints by Penguin illustrated by famed fashion illustrator Ruben Toledo??? I love them and plan to collect them all for my bookshelves. :) What do you think?





There were a few others, but these four are my favorites!
