Customer Reviews

Who's a Woman's Best Friend? Her stylist! 2nd best, her Stylist's Diary! This book is it!

This is a mini Encyclopedia of style! Illustration (Yes!), Explanations? (Yes!), Examples? (Yes!). This is a body of work that took wisdom, experience and taste to another level...shared knowledge that benefits the Student, the Worker, the Superheroe Mom and the Style Superstar in everybody. This answers the eternal dilemma of "What to Wear Today?" And many days and weeks after that! We all need a copy of this book by Jeanne Allen! (Look up her other tittles and thank yourself later!)

I'm practically color blind

This book takes you through pages of different base colors of skirts or pants and then adds a second set of colors as a shirt, to compare your color preferences. My own preferences in color combination was interesting. There were combinations I thought I would have liked and didn't, and vice versa. If you are a color diva you won't need this book. If you're color challenged like me, you'll keep it as a reference for breaking out of your basic wardrobe, and for adding jewelry, scarves, layers, etc.
