The time-traveling Fashionista


Hey, my name is Arneta Nathlya.
I'm 14 years old and I am currently a student at Global Jaya International School.



I am reading this interesting novel about Louise Lambert, a typical seventh-grade girl that has an addiction of collecting vintage dresses from thrift stores. The novel is called “The time-traveling Fashionista” which is written by Bianca Turetsky. Even though I have never heard of this author before, I immediately fell in love with her novel and I would like to see more novels that she has written.

The novel tells a story about how Louise Lambert's misery life magically transformed when she receives a mysterious invitation to a vintage fashion sale in the mail. It is an exciting news for Lou, but not only that she's also expecting her first dance at Fairview Junior High. She's hunting for a new vintage dress that she will wear to the dance, and she hopes that she could find one at the vintage fashion sale. 

I started to read this book a week ago and I like it so far, I think the book is really great. How the author mentions the feelings that typical 12 years old would actually feel, and what would they do at that age. I am up to chapter 4 right now; it is basically just explaining how Louise Lambert’s daily life is like.


To sum up, I am really interested in this book because I like to read books that are connected to my everyday life; it feels more real when I’m reading it. I will continue my reading to the next chapters and I can’t wait to found out what will happen in the end.
