Ladies' Book of Etiquette and Manual of Politeness HESP

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

What should you do if you notice a stranger's dress is tucked up at the back? What are you meant to say if you are offered food you don't like at a dinner party? And what ought you to wear if you're invited to a ball? If these questions baffle you, fear not! For help is at hand in the form of The Ladies' Book of Etiquette. Florence Hartley's insightful etiquette guide was first published in 1860, and yet her witty and useful advice on behaving like a lady often still rings true down the ages. You don't need to live in the nineteenth century to agree with Hartley that it is rude to finish someone else's jokes. Whatever the situation, whether the reader would like to know how to be as ladylike as possible when seasick or the best colour schemes for bridesmaids' dresses, this thorough and wide-ranging book will provide sensible and succinct guidance, as well as shed light into life in the nineteenth century. Did you know that apparently you could spot a lady who had laced her corset too tightly from the lack of circulation making her nose go red?!Published alongside The Gentlemen's Book of Etiquette, this is the perfect gift for that special someone in your life, or as a treat to yourself as you aspire to set step on the path towards becoming a lady! Let every action, while it is finished in strict accordance with etiquette, be, at the same time, easy, as if dictated solely by the heart. To be truly polite, remember you must be polite at all times, and under all circumstances.

Na szczęście to Żyd - Erica Lehrer

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - Dziś figurek ,,Żydów na szczęście" jest w Polsce więcej niż polskich Żydów. Wraz z wejściem kraju na drogę kapitalizmu, figurki i obrazki ukazujące Żydów trzymających pieniądze rozpowszechniły się nad Wisłą. Talizmany te zawisły w domach i stanęły przy kasach sklepowych i restauracyjnych w całym kraju. Czy mają pozytywny czy negatywny wydźwięk? Dzielą Żydów i Polaków czy ich łączą? Czy są to suweniry, czy może talizmany, czy wreszcie zabawki? Duchy Holokaustu czy też patroni polskiego kapitalizmu? Analizując, co figurki oznaczają dla ich twórców oraz odbiorców, Na szczęście to Żyd oferuje prowokacyjne spojrzenie na miejsce Żydów w świadomości współczesnych Polaków. Nazwa - Na szczęście to Żyd Autor - Erica Lehrer Oprawa - Twarda Wydawca - ha!art Kod ISBN - 9788364057427 Kod EAN - 9788364057427 Wydanie - 1 Rok wydania - 2014 Język - polski, angielski Format - 17.0x24.5cm Ilość stron - 248 Podatek VAT - 5% Premiera - 2014-08-22

Advanced Style: Older And Wiser powerHouse Books,U.S.

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The follow-up to our bestselling Advanced Style features more senior street style and inspiration from all over the globe. In this new edition Cohen shares his work from the past few years and now including some of the world's best-dressed older gentlemen.§§Similar in format to the original, with dozens of images from cities all over the world including: Los Angeles, London, Cape Town, Rome, Florence, Tokyo, San Diego, Palm Springs, Melbourne, Sydney, New York, Amsterdam, Edinburgh, Stockholm, and Geneva.§§The book will also feature around 10 short essays (by the subjects of the book) distilling the wisdom and lifestyle secrets of some of Cohen's favorite Advanced Style ladies. Plus an introduction from the always fabulous and witty Simon Doonan makes for a celebration of smashing senior style!§§"...I must tell you that I am not really an old lady; just cleverly disguised as one. Art and colour keep me young, keep me sane. Working as I do as an untutored 'outsider' artist is my therapy, my medicine, my joy and my purpose in life.§§Colour surrounds me: I revel in it, splash it everywhere, gulp it with a spoon. I am immersed in art. I make it, collect it, it fills and defines my existence. Childish, shamanistic, wild and anarchic, it is as far outside the box as it is possible to be. Box?? There is no box!§§Be bold, be adventurous. Do profound things, dazzle yourself and the world. Don't wear beige: it might kill you. Contribute to society, and live large. Life is short, make every moment count. It is never too late to find your passion." -- Sue Kreitzman
