Book Lust: What I Wore Today The Book by Gemma Correll

Gemma Correll's amazing new book, What I Wore Today is brand new and out this week, and we can't wait to get our hands on a copy! We love fashion illustration (of course) and drawing what we wear is one of our favourite things - Gemma has had it nailed for years and we always look forward to seeing her cute illustrations! We are definitely big fans <3


"Part sketchpad, part journal, this is a totally customizable record of how you like to dress, what you love to do and who you really are. Maybe you're a budding artist or a haute couture designer. Maybe you can't draw much more than a stick man, but gosh darn it, you like clothes and colouring in. Whoever you are, so long as you like having fun with fashion (the way you wear it), and have a pencil to hand, you can scribble, sketch and doodle your way through a year's worth of your best outfits, or biggest fashion mistakes. Whichever you're most proud of, really. So, explore your creative side and get in touch with the most fashionable person you know - you!

Gemma Correll is a freelance illustrator, coffee drinker and sometime ukulele player, based in deepest, darkest England. Gemma has exhibited her work in galleries and shop windows around the world and her artwork has been reproduced on everything from placemats to t-shirts to umbrellas. She has also had her work published in various books, annuals and magazines and has undertaken commissions to paint murals on the walls of pubs and shops in the UK and the USA. Gemma's artwork has been described as 'the perfect combination of ugly and cute', which she hopes is a compliment..."
