A Year in High Heels by Camilla Morton ($16), is the ultimate how-to guide on living a magnificently fashionable life.

Broken down month-by-month, Morton gives us advice on things every woman should know, from how to deal with Valentine's Day alone to diets and detoxing. Along with a forward from close friend and shoe extraordinaire Manolo Blahnik, who stated, "She is witty beyond belief, a wonder with words, and knows fashion like a medic would know the human body . . .", Morton also divulges tips from industry professionals such as Gisele Bundchen, Nick Knight, and Antonio Berardi, to name a few.

This how-to is packed with over 500 pages of tips I guarantee you will be using for the rest of your life. My favorite? Since I like to break the rules, I found her advice on decoding dress codes quite interesting.
