2/5book smarts
If you’ve been aching for a time when "dressing up" meant donning gowns, feathered hats, and elbow gloves––look no further than The Deb’s Dictionary for a guide to the elegant era of the 1930s. Updated slightly, while staying faithful to its original 1931 version, The Deb’s Dictionary is packed with witty definitions and cheeky illustrations to engage your old school glamour–girl.

3/5seat's taken
Summer may be winding down, but you’ll still need to shade your eyes at the bus stop. Try on these tortoise shell frames from Tom Ford. With so many sunglass options to choose from, the aviator shape stands out as a classic and flatters most face shapes. Plus what better way is there to ignore an undesirable school bus seat mate?

Leave that boring bath bar in the soap dish. It's time to slather on L'Occitane's Verbena shower cream, made with Shea milk. It has both a delicate scent and creamy texture and will leave your skin and hair feeling smooth and clean. It's the only thing more fun than singing in the shower.
