Editorial Review:
At last, a revolutionary solution to the age-old quandary of too many clothes but "nothing to wear!" Whether dressing for a date or an important work presentation, every day millions of women throw open their closets, stare blankly into the abyss, and mutter, "I've got nothing to wear!" despite the countless dollars they spend on clothes and accessories.
At once simple and unique, Nothing to Wear? reveals a stylish cure for the common closet, based on the five-step process that has made Visual Therapy(tm) a hit for more than ten years with fashion editors and clients alike. Walking the reader through the process of identifying her natural style (who she is and how her fashion "personality" aligns with the image she wants to portray), the book then helps her perform a thorough "love it or leave it" examination of her wardrobe, eliminating the old, out-of-date, too-tight, too-loose clutter and re-establishing an authentic sense of style-getting her into her clothes and out of the house looking and feeling like a million bucks.

Rating:  - One of the best grooming books I've read
I really enjoyed this book. I read it in two sittings and was motivated to immediately began getting rid of the clothes that just didn't work, and buying a few items to complete my wardrobe. Identifying my style was very helpful as well as the three questions, Do I love it? Does it flatter?....etc, and the other suggestions such as creating a style guide were very helpful. I highly recommend this book, and will refer to it often. Also, the pictures are so cool, Ruben Toledo is an awesome illustrator.
Rating: - This Book Completely Changed my Life
Before reading Nothing to Wear, I considered myself completely useless when it came to putting an outfit together. I always looked disheveled, no matter how much time and effort I put into my clothes. After reading this book, I was able to look through my closet and identify what to keep and what to get rid of, get a capsule wardrobe together (as suggested) and completely revamp my look.
As a result, people at work and in my personal life began to take notice and listen to me more seriously. ... Read More
Rating:  - Too little info
A lot of this book had good practical information but I think it lost a bit when it came to classifying the 5 types...Bohemian, Chic, Classic, Avant Garde and Whimsical. The list of "cake" to have was good, but in no way helped add those extra pieces that would give depth to each type. And what if you ended up as a mixture of types?
The inspiration board confused me. The one they showed bore no real resemblance in the end to the wardrobe of the woman they showcased (Julie?).
The three ... Read More
Rating: - What Not to Wear for the Rest of Us
I absolutely love this book! After borrowing a copy from my public library and thumbing through it at least 2 dozen times, I'm going to be purchasing my own copy. Of all the wardrobe-styling books I've read (and I own several), this book holds up incredibly well on repeat readings. It's a slim volume but packed with excellent stuff. Do not heed the reviewers who say this is light on information--not true! An uncluttered layout leavened with photos and whimisical pen-and-ink fashion illustrations make for easy ... Read More
