Who else loves it when a book they like turns into a movie? I've read two of the books below (Gone Girl and Mockingjay), so I'm excited to see the movies, but I also really want to read Hector and the Search for Happiness and also see the movie because I love Simon Pegg.
Hector and the Search for Happiness
Written by Francois Lelord, a psychiatrist Hector travels around the world to understand what makes people happy and unhappy. He travels from Paris to China to the U.S. to Africa and keeps a list of observations.
Be happy and wear color: a pink blazer, a balloon shirt, hot air balloon earrings, black pants, and green bow flats. Or instead wear a black open cardigan, a colorful and bright dress, an orange watch, and short pointed heels. (Release Date: September 19)

Gone Girl

Go dark and moody: a black blazer, a strappy black dress, a purple and red rhinestone necklace, and black T-strap heels. Or wear a white open cardigan, a black jumpsuit, a tri-color clutch, and black loafers. (Release Date: October 3)

Mockingjay
Written by Suzanne Collins, the final book in the trilogy is about Katniss wanting revenge on President Snow for capturing Peeta, and President Snow wants revenge on her for making it out of the arena...again. No one is safe.

I love everything in the Wild collection, never heard of that book but I might have to pick it up once I'm done Gone Girl!

I think the Wild collection is my fave, though I adore that Sweater in the Mockingjay section. Adding Wild to my to-read list - sounds really interesting!
ReplyDeleteWhy have I never heard about Hector and the Search for Happiness? I need that book. Great collections as always, The wild one looks really comfy and even though I couldn't wear the leather sleeve cardigan it's my favorite from the collection (I tend to role sleeves up on whatever I'm wearing and it wouldn't work here)
ReplyDeletethe book wild sounds really interesting and the the outfit u have put together too
