I think I've mentioned before that I read a lot, time permitting a book a week. I devour magazines and have invested virtually the GDP of a small African nation in my habit over the years.
I know I'm not alone in this, there are blogs on my blog list devoted purely to magazines and their content.
Even though I talk about my books and magazines I don't think I show them enough, so I'm on a mission to start to photograph the piles that sit on surfaces all around the house.

Hi LM! What do you think of "Chanel: Collections and Creations"? Is this book good or not?
Rano
The blouse is gorgeous. And I'm unsurprised to see multiple Chanel-themed books in that stack!
oh! yay i have some of those myself!
the last photo of you looking away but holding the glass with one hand and holding your pearls with the other (at least it seems that way) is brilliant! your photography (and modeling skills) is stunning!
You look fab! I love that shirt and the pearls..and the shoes as well:)))
And great books! I love books as well, but I don;t have too much time to read them..so it;s like 2 books per month for me;)
Very pretty and inspiring for the office.
I didn't see this blouse in the store I went to.
hello LM!
im a regular vistor 2 your fabulous blog!
i was just wondering.. how or where can i find copies of the 'lulu'mag in melb.. ? i am dying to get my hands on that magazine.. and i have been looking all over the place for it..
Rano darling- definitely worth every penny, the pictures are fantastic.
Anon- Mag Nation on Elizabeth St has them, I bought mine when it first came out a couple of weeks ago so not sure how many copies they will have left but they can help you source it.
I really like that blouse! :)
And you also have a lovely blog of course!
Lady M loving the library chic blouse ... but even more so your pink and black tipped nails! Fab x
