Blue Carreon’s ‘Conversations’ now available at NBS

MANILA, Philippines - Filipino lifestyle journalist and fashion editor Blue Carreon’s book Conversations: Up Close and Personal with Icons of Fashion, Interior Design and Art is now available at National Book Store (NBS).

Conversations began as a column for The Huffington Post. It initially featured fashion designers whom Carreon would ask to answer a fill-in-the-blanks type of questionnaire on topics that touch on many aspects of their lives. Through his column, readers discovered the fascinating truths about the personal rituals, alternative careers to thoughts on Botox of some of the world’s renowned and most creative minds. Later on, Carreon went to ask a great mix of personalities, includidng style icons Inès de la Fressange and Olivia Chantecaille; fashion designers Diane von Furstenberg, Rachel Roy, and Michael Bastian; decorators Charlotte Moss, Vicente Wolf, and Mary McDonald; and artists James Nares and Polly Apfelbaum, to be part of the “Conversations” series.

 With over 65 interviews, Conversations stretches over the fields of fashion, interior design, and art. Delve into these people’s fascinating lives and see just how many turns of phrase can be added to a single open-ended word like “happiness.” Read their answers and be surprised at how the subjects jump so quickly from clever to funny to philosophical with each question.
