520    "Diana Vreeland's insightful edicts and evocative 
       aphorisms remain her strongest legacy. She looked at life 
       as a romantic and lived through dreams and imagination. 
       Showing leadership, vision, and timeless wit, this book 
       celebrates her visionary words that not only transformed 
       the world of fashion, but also gave us sage advice to live
       by. Sourced and edited by her grandson Alexander, Diana 
       Vreeland: Bon Mots covers Vreeland's incisive views of 
       subjects such as allure, fashion, and style ("I mean, a 
       new dress doesn't get you anywhere; it's the life you're 
       living in the dress"); beauty ("The neck is the beginning 
       and end of looking like anybody"); age ("The quickest way 
       to show your age is to try to look young"); color ("Black 
       is the hardest color to get right--except for gray"); and 
       her powerfully creative way of thinking ("I'm looking for 
       the suggestion of something I've never seen") Brought to 
       life by illustrator Luke Edward Hall, Bon Mots vividly 
       displays Mrs. Vreeland's original thought and speech, 
       which is equally as inspiring and relevant now as it was 
       then.
