Within The Little Book of Bettie you'll find: Bettie's remarkable backstory Retro fashion and styling tips Vintage hair and makeup lessons Bettie-inspired fitness routines DIY pinup accessory how-tos Advice from "Bettie Babes" like Dita Von Teese, modern-day pinups and entertainers, and everyday women who love Bettie!
