Dress Your Best - The Complete Guide to Finding the Style That-s Right for Your Body

5 stars (Well Done!) - This book is the best of it's kind. It is simple and to the point. It's going to change the way I approach shopping for clothes. Stacy and Clinton work to make people look good no matter what their shape or weight or height or figure flaws. When I saw some of the pictures of people (in their underwear) I thought, "No way are they going to make this person look good!" But I was wrong every single time. The people look good. They look together. It made me feel good just to see the change. What I think Stacy and Clinton are about is that they want people to feel good about their bodies no matter what(or where) their problem areas are. What they show us in this book is that we all really can have our "outsides" match our "insides." 5 stars (Stacy and Clinton Don't Disappoint) - I was thrilled to see the American hosts of What Not To Wear co authored a book. The show is fabulous and the book lives up to that standard. First, the book helps you identify your body type not by using some fruit or obscure geometric shape but real world identifiers. The guidelines they use are so simple they make sense for those of us not so handy with a tape measure. Also, the book does not assume every one who is petite is a size 6. Guidelines are given for a variety of shapes, sizes and heights. It also shows you how to dress for work, play and formal occasions. My absolute favorite part is the pictures in the back of the book that show and tell (some fashion books assume you know what a bolero jacket looks like). No assumptions are made here this book provides pictures for everything the authors talk about or recommend which to me makes perfect sense. Fashion is so visual and at last there is a fashion book with actual pictures of real people wearing the right clothes instead of 3 or 4 cartoon drawings that supposedly represent human body shapes or pictures of the same two people who supposedly represent every figure flaw or asset.

What Not To Wear for Every Occasion

3 stars (Fun and helpful) - There are some good tips in this book and the fact that there are do and don't photos is helpful. Some of the don'ts look like do's to me though, so I guess I need the book I found the accessories to be particularly fun and inspiring 4 stars (What Not Wear for Every Occasion) - Gives a great overview of how to dress with sytle and class. 1 stars (hard to decide which is worse) - the outfits they disdain or the outfits they recommend...both are generally impractical and/or in plain bad taste.Skip this one unless you can find it in the dollar bin and feel like lauughing at ugly clothes-there's a plethora here. ...

What Not to Wear

1 stars (Might be good if you are clueless!) - The book was okay, but I get more enjoyment from a copy of Vogue. It would probably be great for a woman who has no clue how to dress for her body type. Also, they did not address every body type! They should have added no butt and long torso! I got more out of their apperance on Oprah(which is why I bought the book) than from the book. 2 stars ( What Not to Wear ) - I was disappointed. The info was very basic...actually TOO basic for what they actually charged for the book. I will probably give the book away; would not recommend buying it. The humor was not worth the cost. 1 stars (Overtones) - I just do not like the tone of this book-its just too too bossy for my taste. This is a book written by the two the most 'bitchy and obnoxious' fashionistas.As Simon Cowell is to AMERICAN IDOL,these two are to FASHION. ...
