Not a bad little book.The publish date is 2003, so it's a little dated but not horribly so. It gives recommendations based on body shape, which I like (especially bath suits). I have yet to try out their recommendations out since it's still too cold out to even think about that lol. I will update my review when I have tried out their recommendations. ( ) Not a bad little book.The publish date is 2003, so it's a little dated but not horribly so. It gives recommendations based on body shape, which I like (especially bath suits). I have yet to try out their recommendations out since it's still too cold out to even think about that lol. I will update my review when I have tried out their recommendations. Provides many pictures and guidance for developing a blend-into-the-fashionable-background closet. There are some useful tips here; for instance, I'd have never thought to shop for camisoles in the lingerie department (and perhaps that is why I haven't been successful finding any in recent years). However, many of the tips are ones I'd already intuited. That's not to say the advice is bad -- it's just limited by the reality of how many clothing suggestions legitimately exist. As an idea book for outfits, though, this book delivers, and given that it was developed by a fashion magazine, that shouldn't be surprising. This book will eventually become quite dated, though probably in a charming way. It's feeling slightly dated already, so if you're interested, I'd say it may be worth borrowing from a library -- but it won't be worth buying again until 2003 becomes vintage. At first I was quite enthuastic about this book, and it does have some very good points about creating a useful wardrobe, and the authors do point out in their introduction that you should take what they say with a pinch of salt and use your own discression, but it lost me with the shoes. All the shoes are quite fancy and really nothing I'd wear on a regular basis. While they did suggest snuggly coats they didn't mention that a pair of waterproof hiking/walking boots are an essential for winter. It's the kind of book that I'd hand to a friend who was thinking about a wardrobe clean out or a young woman starting out but the styles and ideas are American biased, which doesn't always work as well in Ireland or England, where the office culture is subitly different. Useful as a start but not quite enough as a comprehensive guide. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
