Book Review: Happiness

French model Inès de La Fressange details how she derives joy from her personal relationships – friends, family and partner – and shares tips for finding happiness in others. Friendship has always been Inès’s refuge, and she can attest that surrounding yourself with the right people is the secret for finding joy and navigating the high and low points with equal grace.

In her new book, Inès has compiled everything that brings her happiness through her various relationships. She shares how she nurtures those connections, combining advice with lifestyle tips to get you through every day: from style and workplace happiness to sharing meals and other simple wellness pleasures like goal-setting, gratitude and letting go. Filled with Inès’s drawings, personal photos and endless wisdom for how to thrive in life – written with her signature humour, generosity and positive outlook – it is a balm for the soul.
