Love these ladies! Lots of useful advice and realistic pictures of what does and does not work for their body types. I especially liked their color palate options. I never would have paired some of the colors they suggest, but they look great. My plan is to go though my wardrobe and see what combinations will work. I really need to get out of the khakis go with everything rut...

maybe the title is a wee bit dramatic but a fun read. There's a chapter on how to pose for pictures so you don't cringe when your photos are developed after a vacation. Tips on proper underwear to hide those things you want to hide. I couldn't figure out what colors they thought my complexion necessitated however, not enough information for me. easy to pick up and put down.

Of all of the fashion advice books that I've read, I treasure this one for its color advice. If I feel bored with my wardrobe or think I don't have anything to wear I check out the color combo suggestions and come up with something surprising and great. There's also a lot of basic tips for the fashion-impaired. Always a funny read.

Similar to their other books but expanded to include pregnancy and other stages of life. It seemed a little more realistic, they acknowledged that women might not have unlimited time and resources to spend on fashion. But they stressed how looking good can give you a boost and be empowering in tough or busy times.

They are spot on about body type and figure flattering, but why must they be the only models to demonstrate every body type? It's a stretch when one of them tries to demonstrate the 'apple shape.' Also, I'm not anti-British style (hellO, Spice Girls!), but some of their outfits are HIDEOUS.

I think the authors finally got a clue after their last book. This one is much better. There's a lot of useful advice that I didn't know before, and the looks are stylish and up to date. Good book with lots of pictures!

I never would have put green and blue together before I read this book. The BBC show, in combination with this book, really helped me to dress better to flatter the body that I have. Confidence boosting!

I started reading this book more than once and finally got through it this Spring. It's a light, easy read and it really does help you pick out clothes and colors that work for you.

This book has been on my shelf for a few years now and I reference to it almost on a weekly basis. Not so much for the tips, as the color combo ideas. I love it!!

This is a great book for any woman to at least look through. I have 'read' it a ton of times (if you can call it reading since it is more a book of tips).

Changed the way I shop and look for clothes. Now I know what to avoid for my body type.
