Dress [with] Sense: The Practical Guide to a Conscious Closet
A stylish guide to environment-friendly ways of buying, wearing, caring for, and decluttering your wardrobe, illustrated with case studies and tips from eco-fashion pioneers across the world As part of a growing global awareness of the importance of eco-conscious living, both for the planet and as a means of promoting fair labor practices, more people than ever before are seeking to dress in an environmentally friendly way. On a broader scale, initiatives to promote a more sustainable approach to fashion have made headlines and grown like never before, from the release of the high-profile documentary The True Cost to the launch of the worldwide “Fashion Revolution” campaign. This timely book is organized into four chapters—Buy, Wear, Care, and Dispose—each containing a short introduction with essential information followed by practical tips and illustrated case studies to help you make the first step toward a more sustainable wardrobe. A detailed reference section recommends not only the best ethical fashion labels and collections but also eco-friendly fabrics, standards, and certifications; cleaning methods; renting, swapping, and recycling initiatives; and much more.
Mass with Mary
Mass With Mary is a candid depiction of what began on February 6th, 1998 when Mary Kay Letourneau arrived at the Washington Corrections Center for Women in Gig Harbor. Written by three inmates, convicted of three entirely different crimes, comes the actual account of what happened in prison to the teacher sentenced to 7 years for having an intimate relationship (and two children) with her student. The book is more than just a "Mary Kay" story. The lives of two other women and the intertwined relationships they had with Letourneau, are shared throughout the book. This is a real look at some of the things that happen at a maximum security prison. This book covers everything from sex to suicide. Mass With Mary: The Prison Years was written from behind the prison walls and each page was smuggled out through the visiting room, outgoing mail and any other way possible. "It was an unlikely trio, who gave their book an unlikely title Mass With Mary because that was often the only place prison officials would allow them to be together."

Defining Dress
This collection of essays brings together many separate but related issues which form the focus of contemporary research into the history of dress. Historically, in Britain at least, investigations of dress were primarily informed by historical and empirical protocols, although the symbolic meaning of dress was explored by anthroplogists and sociologists, who tended to concentrate on either non-Western cultures or British or Western sub-cultures. In recent years these approaches have moved closer together partly as a result of the impact of feminism.
