Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Good Information......
The information is this book is really good. However, it is pretty funny that in the pictures of what you shouldn't wear the authors went to the trouble of posing in the worst possible posture (see page 80). I don't care what you have on, if you are standing as the author is on page 80, it will look bad. The pictures are pretty fun... not even a smile while posing for what you shouldn't wear. Overall, the book has good information and I recommend it.
Rating:  - wow this was terrible
my mother bought this for me as a gift, and she completely wasted her money. this book is AWFUL. the pictures are bad, the posing is terrible-- if you slouch and frown, you''ll look bad no matter what you're wearing! They should have used models who actually HAD saddlebags or flat chests or flabby tummies... maybe they just wanted to see their faces in print.
I cannot even express how awful this book was. I agree with one other reviewer-- I get MUCH more out of a copy of Vogue than I ... Read More
Rating: - Confidence is the Key
The thing I like about this book, and all of Trinny and Susannah's books, is that they are written to help everywoman look her best. I like too that much of the material is geared toward the grown woman who wants to look grown, rather than like a teenager. They are real champions of a mature and classy look - almost harking back to the days when young women were looking forward to being adults, with sophistication of dress. The advice about shapes and colors is very helpful. I too give it four rather ... Read More
Rating: - I don't know where to begin because this book is so bad!
Fist of all, I'll start off buy saying ladies, if you're 25 or under, this book is not for you!!!
Second, if you only identify with one or two attributes categorized in this book, this book will not help you very nuch, as you will only be looking at a maximum of 10 pages from the entire book. Plus, the help is so generic and limited. They only give you a list of 4 or 5 helpful cuts/lines/lengths, and a series of 4 or 5 stlyes/etc. to avoid. Well, I realized that there are FAR more stlyes/etc. in ... Read More
Rating:  - I am not buying what they are selling
I was extremely disappointed in this book. I love these kind of style advice books but this just left me feeling like I didn't learn a thing. Much of the advice was old hat, and some of it I just didn't even agree with like busty girls shouldn't wear turtlenecks - cmon! And it only addressed specific body areas rather than all over body types.
For my money Stacey and Clinton's book is the way to go. Haven't found one yet to rival theirs. And I guess I just like the way they seem to find ... Read More
