The Christmas List
A Privileged Life: Celebrating Wasp Style (Hardcover) by Susanna Salk
‘Those were the days…. Yes, those were really the days. Not focusing on wealth or position, WASP style has nothing to do with religion or money but rather a time when there was something “profoundly comforting” in the “infinite consistency” of this way of life. Defined not only by the style of clothing worn but what was done and spoken, where they lived, how they played or entertained, and even what they ate. It goes without saying that WASP style has launched many of today’s fashion trends (Ralph Lauren, J. Crew) and still bespeaks an elegant, casual way of dressing. More importantly it reminds us of a kinder, gentler way of life’. Chic
