They love making them, reading about them, following them, crossing each item off, etc. "The One Hundred" will be a thoroughly researched take on these attainable items, featuring Ruben Toledo's stand-out, signature illustrations. She will explore a short history of many of the items, with beautifully designed side-bars that include fun-to-know-facts, and will also summon the advice from the many expert friends she has throughout the fashion industry.

Amazon.com:Some women might feel that 100 items seems like a big number to tackle--could you name, say, five pieces that women should start off with?
Garcia:The DNA of a wardrobe and perhaps the all time best items are:
The White Shirt: Endlessly versatile, it can from the weekend to the boardroom to the red carpet. When worn correctly, the white shirt can assume so many different roles.
The Little Black Dress: Reliably chic, the LBD can go from classic to dangerously sexy.
Stiletto Heels: One of our most powerful feminine weapons of seduction are Stilettos. No need at all to go into what the potential here is.
Jeans: One of the most personal items in your closet, always practical, comfortable and carefree. Truly American.
Great Jewelry: Real or fake, big or small, jewelry adds a 'personal touch' and can instantly transform an outfit.
Amazon.com:In your book, you say it's definitely ok to purchase basic pieces from discount chains. Any tips for acquiring high end luxury items if you're a shopper on a budget? Or are luxury/designer items even necessary in a woman's wardrobe?
Garcia:The point is to shop for high value in items that will endure for many years, items that will never lose their relevance. Try not to focus on price and name brands. A truly stylish woman makes smart decision based on good taste, and the ability for an item to endure.
Amazon.com:How has your experience as a judge onProject Runwayshaped your outlook on fashion?
Garcia:Being on the show has given me even more passion to support the young design talent that dots America. Also, it helps us all consider genius of the creative process. These young designers are the future of our industry, and having a forum from which they can develop their talent for all to see and appreciates is an amazing thing to be a part of.
