Ford investigates Afros and dashikis, go-go boots and hotpants of the sixties, hip hop's baggy jeans and bamboo earrings, and the #BlackLivesMatter-inspired hoodies of today.

Rachel Levy Lesser can relive almost every significant life event through an accessory. A scarf, a pair of earrings, a bag, even a fleece pair of socks?each contains the elements that put together the story of a life. Life?s Accessories is a funny, sad, touching, relatable, shake-your-head-right-along-as-you-laugh-and-wipe-away-tears, coming-of-age memoir. In fourteen essays, Lesser tackles sensitive issues like anxiety, illness, and loss in a way that feels a bit like having a chat with a good friend. Out of the stories comes solid life?and fashion?advice. About far more than just a hair tie, a bracelet, or a belt, Life?s Accessories is a window into the many ways in which Lesser has come to understand life?in all of its beauty, its joys, its sorrows, its heartaches, its challenges, and its absurdity.
