As always, another lovely post. J'adore your incorporation of books - I too love when models read backstage!
These are gorgeous pictures. I enjoy reading alot. At this moment I am reading Sophies World. It is about Philosophy I adore it. But my ultimate favourite book is Wuthering Heights!

hey there!
I am not sure if I ever mentioned, but I really do enjoy your blog, great photos especially!
Being a future librarian, I especially love this post!
Awww I've always loved the "Chic Geek" look =)
Fab post as ever and neatly done. You'd love Alicia Drake's 'Beautiful Fall' if you haven't already.
I've always secretly wanted to a be a librarian in the Library of Congress. Imagine if the librarians looked like these lovelies? There would be a whole lot more reading going on I would imagine.
Yay for nerds<3
Thank you so much for the award, daring CC! You are just too sweet for words :)
I love that Melody Woodin is reading A Clockwork Orange! And people say models are dumb ;)
I've read it a million times, but one of my favorite reads for any time really, is Pride and Prejudice or On the Road. So good :)
Enjoy your weekend and the beautiful weather we're finally having!
reading is very sexy as you said before. it really opens up the mind. I am reading 21st Economy now.
I am such a nerd...I love reading and it seems my summer listing continues to grow. I am reading "Couture Culture" now and next are "Mercury in Retrograde", Coco Chanel's autobiography and "Chasing Harry Winston".
awesome!!! congrats to you & the blogs u gave the award to you! great post!

Loving the photos; I'm a big fan of reading too -- there's just something about relaxing with a nice book that is so alluring.
This reminds me that i need to do more summer reading!
Lovely, It's really cool to see models reading, shows you they're more then just a pretty face.
Thank you for the award. Great post! x
Nerds on the top, haha!
congrats & Happy Sunday!!
don't miss the Twilight giveaway :)))
Congratulations on the award and great post.
cute photos! i love reading :)
Many models seem to be great readers.
Book is really treasure house of wisdom and humane, although reading needs much energy.
Haruki Murakami is genius!
My Jp favorite authors are Junichiro Tanizaki, Osamu Dazai and Banana Yshimoto, although.
However, sometimes i want to get the books just because of the cover's drawings.
Even if i can't read the languages in contents;D
CC - I checked out those Jacquard shorts FAB! I'm also eying the wallpaper jacquard dress ;) But I purchased a jacket instead, only because it was on sale.
CC, love this post so much!
And Myf Shepherd is a delight, love her to bits. Helps that she's reading such a great book.
As Macaron Treats shared the book she's reading, here's mine: Falling Man by Don DeLillo. What a fabulous book!
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend (and I totally understand the jeans moratorium ;)
p.s. thank you for your sweet comment on my last post dearie :D
WOW congrats! love this post !
xx

Thanks for the fab award!! You are so sweet.
And I love it that someone dared to bring together books (*gasp*) and fashion. Nice! I especially love that book dress. I would actually wear that.
Books and beautiful clothes..two of my favorite things in life!:)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! xxx
Awesome pictures!
I like the reading model pics!
congratulations on the award and I love this post!
I love seeing backstage photos!
I looooove reading. And I looooooove models. But my favorite models are those with a good head on their shoulders. Not like some who I see in interviews, and they sound like complete bimbos!
Eheh, lovely post ! I remember seeing Iekeliene Stange reading Plato on a picture... nice surprises !
i'm starting to feel like i am missing all the fun here
