Rating:  - Lacking both secrets and style
I bought this book from the clearance rank at a local bookstore. Should have been my first clue. As someone who designs and makes custom clothing, I'm always looking for references to help with customer body types and the best silhouettes. This book got it all wrong. Unless you're a celebrity and a sample size, don't bother. They don't know how to dress you. The authors/editors have no experience dressing you and they never will. I'm still looking for a book I can recommend, but this will ... Read More
Rating:  - Very good buy
I found this guide very interesting and useful.
Every woman who wants to improve her look should have it!

This book was a great purchase. I was not disappointed with this book; it gives good examples, but doesn't suggest you be a clone of someone else. Good photos, do's and don't, and helpful information and advice --even on undergarments! Good book to keep as reference from time to time. They thought of everything in this one! Loved it.

Rating:  - No secrets is here
I bought this book and the Lucky Guide to Shopping and found the tips given in the other book to be better. If you were deciding which one to buy, I would say that I didn't find this book as helpful in identifying basic or classic pieces and there are relatively few practical shopping tips that I could use in the future.
