Long before Tameka Foster Raymond was known for her high-profile marriage and drama-fueled divorce, she lived a vibrant life as a self-made success in the fashion world, curating the wardrobes and images of many of today’s award-winning entertainers. In this honest, sincere, witty, and at times gut-wrenching memoir, Tameka opens up about her childhood influences, coming of age in Oakland, and losing her first love without losing her decorum, dignity, or her ability to dream.

When Ellie Goldstein was first diagnosed with Down Syndrome, her mother was soon told that her new-born would amount to nothing. For 21 years and counting, Ellie Goldstein has been defying the odds and overcoming every hardship thrown at her. Told she wouldn't walk, Ellie has danced on mainstages.

Dzieje rodziny Gucci to mieszanka zarówno splendoru, pasji, wielkich pieniędzy, świata mody i ekskluzywnej galanterii skórzanej, jak i rywalizacji, oszustw, skandali, zdrad oraz zbrodni. Życie każdego z członków włoskiej dynastii związane było z przedsiębiorstwem stworzonym przez Guccia Gucciego. Z biegiem lat, gdy rodzina się powiększała, a do modowego imperium o światowej renomie dostęp zyskiwali kolejni potomkowie, ambicje i temperamenty wielu z nich wpływały na coraz częstsze spory i spiski – a warto dodać, że żaden z nich nie miał zamiaru ustąpić.

La storia di ogni grande donna è la storia delle sue guerre. Quelle di Coco Chanel sono state almeno quattro: due conflitti mondiali, le battaglie sindacali degli anni Venti e Trenta, e la guerra contro i suoi fantasmi. Questa, la più cruenta di tutte, comincia con l'abbandono da parte del padre, prosegue con l'infanzia lontana dalla famiglia, "esiliata" in un convento di suore – che però, conquistato il benessere, sosterrà economicamente – e poi con la perdita di un grande amore, il più grande, e con la rinuncia a una casa vera e propria per trasferirsi al Ritz.
