The Seventies birthed a lot of icons and one of them is Joan Didion. The author is timeless and has an easy nonchalance that is inimitable. She is known for her sheath dresses, scarves and simplicity. The tie of her scarf, the ease of her jacket, the length of her hair and the print of her granny chic bag. Her style was pared back, unfussy and minimal. She infact became the face of fashion house Celine at 80.
