 STYLE December 30, 2008
S. Nickson
I loved that Mr. Mizrahi starts with a "big picture" approach of what inspires us and then takes readers through to show tangible results. In using real women who do not need makeovers, he is able to focus on the elements of style instead of just a new hairstyle or more make up. I also think he covers the appropriate amount of different takes on lifestyle, age and body type. I will use this book as a jumping off point in finding a look of my own. I would also highly recommend another great book How to Snag a Guy and Keep Him Hooked: 99 Ways to Make Him Ache for You

This is a book about insperation,with examples on real women with REAL BODIES(thank you Isaac!).
Its about finding style by seeing your whole outfit,choosing from a grouping/options,selecting to make outfits not just buying a shirt.
This isnt a 'what not to wear'-which I LOVE-this isnt about your body shape and accentuating or covering up.Its about STYLE!!!
Kicking it up a notch. Getting out of t-shirts and jeans.
