Description

What do our clothes say about who we are—andwho we’re striving tobe? In Clothes Minded: Fashionable Essays About Finding Yourself, renowned journalist Christine Morrison weaves together fashion, memory and identity in a collection that’s as emotionally resonant as it is sharply observed. With savvy and self-awareness, she explores how we use clothing not just to show up in the world, but to shape, survive, and sometimes, escape it. Growing up inspired by fashion magazines and The Official Preppy Handbook, Morrison worked in advertising and led in an executive role at Calvin Klein before reinventing herself as a writer for iconic fashion and beauty brands. She brings a rare blend of industry insight and personal vulnerability as she shares her journey through love, loss, marriage, motherhood, and the ongoing process of figuring out who she really is beneath the clothes. Morrison also turns the lens outward, sharing candid reflections and style takeaways from some of fashion and beauty’s most respected voices—stylists, designers, founders, and creatives who know how personal style can shape a life, including Sarah Clary, April Gargiulo, Daryl K, Roz Kaur, Nikki Kule, Joyce Lee, Stacy London, Megan Papay, Meg Strachan, April Uchitel, Tiffany Wendel, and Meg Younger. Whether you’re standing in front of your closet trying to figure out what to wear or wondering how our outfits tell our stories, look to Clothes Minded for a warm, funny, and deeply honest exploration of the layers we put on—and the people we keep discovering underneath.

This book of essays is so relatable and reinforces the different ways clothes shape us. Brings back so many memorable moments and I found myself shaking my head “yes” countless times. If you are or were a clotheshorse, run, don’t walk, and get this charming piece of reading!

An essay collection that couples fun fashion nostalgia with vulnerability, using style as a lens to explore identity, growth, and self-acceptance — proving our clothes carry stories far beyond the closet.

    • Really engaging essays!

    • Put it on your TBR if you are a current or former fashionista.
Format: Paperback
Review Image by Annie Long Sullivan Annie Long Sullivan
This collection of essays weaves together fashion, memory and identity in a way that’s emotionally resonant as it is sharply observed. She had me at the essay titled “Super Saturday in Tory Burch Tunics." Bonus: it took me back to Chicago + NYC in the 90’s/early aughts. I read an essay a day, and if you are looking to build your reading habit (and limit the doomscrolling), this would be a great way to get started. I say put it on your TBR if you are a current or former fashionista. ... show more

    • Self discovery through your fashion choices
Format: Paperback
Review Image by DgKirkwood DgKirkwood
This brilliant read beautifully captures how we define ourselves through our fashion choices and how we want to be perceived. For some of us, what we wore at important junctions of our lives becomes an important symbol of who we were and what we felt at those pivotal moments. Christine takes the reader through her personal journey as she explores who she is through what she wears. You'll laugh, cry and reminisce reading this poignant collection of essays. Loved it! ... show more

    • Fascinating!

Beautifully written! I identified with every decade and loved learning the backstories of so many beloved brands from an insider’s perspective.

    • READ IT IN ONE AFTERNOON!
Format: Kindle
Style and fashion get dismissed all too often as superficial. But we feel what we wear. Christine Morrison explores this psychology behind personal style in her beautiful and funny memoir, "Clothes Minded." I laughed out loud more than twice and reminisced about fashion in the '90s and early aughts with Morrison. Marc Jacobs, anyone? This book is the perfect gift for your Gen X girlfriend who wore Chanel Vamp until the bottle of polish went dry! ... show more
