Secrets of Style: The Complete Guide to Dressing Your Best Every Day

Enjoyed it!

I've always liked fashion books and magazines, but it's become more important to me as I've recently lost over 100 lbs. and I've needed a little assistance in figuring out exactly what suits my new body. This book is clearly illustrated, and has ideas that will assist you whether you are 130 or 300 lbs. It is practical to use, and is comprehensive enough to outlast whatever trends are passing in the wind.

Wonderful, but...

First of all, this book could use a more thorough section on hair, makeup, and skin care. If those aren't in order, the clothes will help, but you still won't look your best. Second, I don't agree that hemlines shouldn't fall too far below the knee. Believe it or not, the area from the bottom of the calf to the ankle can be a very flattering spot for a hemline as long as you don't have thick ankles. Having said all of that, I must say that I LOVED this book. The ideas and guidelines are timeless and work for everyone, and it's nice to see attention paid to those of us who don't have 'model perfect' bodies. I also loved the sections on special occasions, travel, and maternity.

Outstanding book!!!

This book is very helpful if you need some advice on how to dress. This is the best book I've ever bought. I think every woman should have one.
