ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
Ever been overwhelmed by a closet that feels as if it's filled with all the wrong pieces? "Instant Style" is the ultimate guide to streamlining, shopping for, and maintaining your ideal wardrobe all year round. The book starts with the basics, outlining essential clothing items for each season-winter coats, spring skirts, summer sandals, fall sweaters-then shows how to complement them with pieces that accentuate personal style. Learn which tops go with what pants, what boots look best with different skin shapes, how the right bag can change the entire look of an outfit, and how to flatter your colouring and figure. Find out when to hit the best sales, what's worth splurging on, and how to recognize quality in clothes. Finally, benefit from the book's listing of recommended stores around the country: "Instant Style" is filled with hundreds of colourful photographs of clothes and celebrities that will inspire and delight. It is the first book that gives readers everything they need to make getting dressed, no matter what the occasion and season, as enjoyable and easy as it should be.
USER REVIEWS
"This book shows you how to take one piece and use it four ways, whether skirt, jacket or pants, and then how to accessorize. There is a section on undergarments, too. In front of the book, you'll find a bookmark with a list of essentials to buy, so take this with you when you shop. In the back of the book is a workbook for lists of things your friends like, how to choose what to keep in your closet and other helpful hints.
For shoppers, the handy workbook and bookmark make organizing a wardrobe easy. If you, like me, find you wear only a few pieces mix-and-match, this will help you visualize a working wardrobe. I prefer a few good pieces to a closet full of many that I don't wear often, so this kind of help can be quite useful to set up a wardrobe and weed out the pieces that need to go to the rummage sale or charity shop.
The fashions are for the 20-35 set, over 35, you'll find this is less useful as a fashion guide unless you ignore the photos. But the photos are the nicest thing about the book; white background, unfussy shots of clothes make it easy to visualize how the style works. Recommended with the reservations mentioned."
