What a great book! It's full of handy, practical tips that you actually need to know. Very easy to read and an essential reference book to make everyday modern domestic life that bit easier - especially if you're short on time but would like your home blissful oasis of calm you always think it should be.
It has some great suggestions and ideas for everything from making a great martini to maintaining your drains & washing machine!
I was given this book as a house warming gift and have since ordered more to give to my friends.

When i first skimmed this book I was in two minds- was it too basic or was it actually useful? After reading it thorough I have decided it is definitely useful: you get not only how-to tips (e.g. how to keep wool jumpers looking new) but also, and for me more importantly, supplier addresses. Despite having moved to London 6 years ago, I still do not know it as well as Milan, and finally finding the address of a reliable cobbler who can sort out evening shoes properly has been invaluable. This is not an entairtaining book, and it is not even particularly well-written (it seems a re-hash of magazine articles), but it is worth adding to your library for the addresses and the how-to gems.

Life Changing! 14 Mar 2005
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
This book is a complete life-saver! It answers every question you might have about managing a stylish life and home without all the fuss. It covers all the bases - from the very modern (how to sell your old clothes on eBay) to the more conventional (how to be the perfect house guest). Each chapter is filled with a perfect combination of information from the author, recommended shops/products, advice from experts and useful phone numbers and websites.

As a complete disaster in the kitchen I found the fool-proof chapter on cooking especially useful. Not only does it include easy to follow recipes - but the it also goes right back to the basics offering advice on where to buy the best organic products and cooking utensils as well as how to stock your store-cupboard.

This wonderful book has changed my life and I HIGHLY recommend it!
