Reviews

"Full of beautiful images of sartorial inspiration, including collages of hands garnished with jaw-dropping gems, club kids posing in their bedrooms and little old ladies who refuse to hang up the toreador pants."
T Style, New York Times "What started as Stylelikeu co-founder Lily Mandelbaum's personal scrapbook is now an inspirational tome that is much more enthralling than any editorial we've ever seen."
StyleList "The photos are a mix of close-ups of shoes, accessories and tattoos and full-page spreads on a given fashionista in different outfits. The best part is that you could actually dress like these people."
