I love these books! I cannot go anywhere without reading one of these books front to back. I see people carrying these books around when traveling (I usually don't carry mine with me because they are very heavy). They give you so much information accompanied by PICTURES!!! Yes, I must have pictures. It really helps me to know if I want to spend precious time going to this place or if I want to pass it up. The pages are glossy and in color. I like to read these books just for fun even.
The books break the city or country up into sections and then it shows you all the places of interest. For some of the bigger attractions, the guide will break down that attraction giving you a lot of visual detail. These books make great gifts as well. You can supplement these books with other travel guides or articles from the internet for more in depth study, but nothing beats this travel guide for visual excitement.

My latest obsession is this fashion website. I am not a creator, but I can copy! I often get overwhelmed when shopping. I find pieces that I love, but am not so great at putting it all together. This site has many items put together by others that are so good. The great thing is, you find something that you like, you click on the picture, and it breaks down the picture item by item and tells you how much it is and has a link on where to buy it. When I first found the site, I found I was attracted to very expensive things. In the picture above, the dress is $500, the shoes are $700, the purse is $300. What I found is you can recreate this look for less with a little polyvore research. You can go to shop and put in black and white dresses and a whole slew of dresses come up in all price ranges. When you click on that dress, not only does all the details of that dress come up, but it shows you collections that others have made using that dress. Of course, there are much less expensive collections to see and all different kinds. I've printed out some of my favorite looks and I'm going to take the pages shopping with me to help keep me focused on what I want and need.
