ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW

Packed with humour and offering a wry sideways look at the world of women's style, this book should have you laughing in recognition. This book covers the hazards of choosing underwear through to finding the right wedding outfit.
USER REVIEWS
"In general this would be a nice and fun book to receive as a gift and the photos are those lovely black and white nostalgic feeling ones but I found the advice a bit stilted and not really very helpful. I also thought it was aimed at people a little older who really wanted to look 'classic' rather than just stylish(though Ive no doubt the tips are great if that's your aim). Its quite a short book and I think now Ive read it (in about one evening) it will sit on the shelf before I give it away."

"The overall ethos of this is to buy expensive clothes that will last and not be a slave to fashion.
On the plus, this is a quick read which does hold your attention till the end, makes some good points and flows well. I like the tips on how to tell whether a garment fits. On the downside, this book is aimed at pearls and twinset types and is very anti-fashion. The author is also a complete snob, very smug and pretentious but don't let that put u off- it's bit like listening to someone's grandmother. I also feel it's over-priced for its content. I'm glad I got it on Ebay.
If you like to play it safe and don't want to stand out in a crowd but still want to look groomed this is for you- its very Jeniffer Aniston/Katie Holmes/Charlotte from Sex and the City.If you're more Kate Moss/Sienna Miller/Carrie Bradshaw then by all means read it but don't listen to the advice till you're about 50!"
