Brie Larson dishes on her new cookbook and favorite fall styles
She’s an Academy Award winner (for her harrowing turn in “Room”) and part of the blockbuster Avengers team as Captain Marvel. But Brie Larson remains a foodie at heart (in line with her recent TV shows “Lessons in Chemistry” and culinary juggernaut “The Bear,” where she had a small but memorable part as Francie Fak).
On Oct. 21, she will release a book on entertaining, “Party People: A Cookbook for Creative Celebrations” — a collab with former Milk Bar culinary director Courtney McBroom. The two met “over a bowl of molten queso 10 years ago,” says Larson, 36. Since then, they’ve hosted everything from a “Dirty Dancing”-themed birthday to an annual Hot Dog Appreciation Festival. The actress’ favorite of all their events is a yearly Murder Mystery bash. “It lasts about five hours, and guests have to be fully committed to their character upon arrival,” says the Sacramento-born star. “No phones, all tomfoolery.”

The stylish star says her party uniform while serving cheeky dishes from the cookbook, such as Cheesy Jenga Bread and Dueling Roast Chickens, is a slip dress with a cardigan. But her most-shopped accessory? Socks. “I love them,” Larson tells Alexa. “Short, tall, striped, plain — they can really complete the look!”
Here are other comfort items that truly spice up her life.
“It feels more like jewelry than a watch, and it looks great layered with other bracelets. I’m obsessed.”
“My style is vintage California classic: Dôen dresses, like this one, with colorful cardigans, flats and fun jewelry.”
“This book is for people like us who want to host their loved ones, create new memories, celebrate the big moments and the small wins — and are ready to ditch the fear of failure and perfectionism. It’s organized by party type with lots of tips, so you can feel confident hosting and be present to the beauty of your life!”
“A pair of these beauties are always in my suitcase. They are lightweight, feel great on your feet and go with everything. These are the real deal!”

“I’ve been wearing this brand for years. They truly use the coziest, dreamiest fabric of them all! I’m ready to petition for PJs to be workwear!”
“I’m passionate about putting out ‘bar snacks’ whenever someone comes over. This dish holds four — perfect for pretzels, olives, chips and nuts!”
“Normalize! Packing! Games! In! Your! Purse!”
“I’ve had my Mill trash can for a few years now, and it’s become part of my personality. Quiet, well-made and will revolutionize your food waste super easily.”
“The first mascara I ever bought was Définicils, the only mascara I buy is Définicils. It’s super-natural, with lots of length!”
“I always keep a puzzle out. I love relaxing with one, and it’s easy for friends to jump in on when they stop by!”
“My treasured kitchen tool. Very sharp, and the color is so happy!”
“I always have a packet of this in my purse. It tastes so legit and is good for you!”
