THE BEST STYLE BIBLE EVER,
By
This review is from: How to be Gorgeous: Wear It Your Way and Feel Like a Goddess Every Day (Hardcover)
I could paper the walls with the number of fashion guides Ive bought and I still cant understand all the rules and still I look a mess. this guide is different all the looks we all love boho, rock chick, sporty etc etc with all the info we need to achieve them loads of brilliant photos so you can shop a look easily.
It really is brilliant and Im getting more copies for my daughter in laws and friends' If I see a celeb , model etc wearing a look I like I can just grab this book and can see at a glance how its achieved like having a personal dresser. well done Nicky and thank you.

easily the best style book on the market,
This review is from: How to be Gorgeous: Wear It Your Way and Feel Like a Goddess Every Day (Hardcover)
this is a brillant book. I probably own all the style books on the market now but this is the only one that is worth buying in my opinion. unlike the vast majority of others on the market it does not show masses of celebrity photos (they have huge salaries, personal stylists, expensive hairdressers and as well as better looks than the average person they get load of free stuff to wear from companies trying to flog us stuff so well just forget trying to look like them!). there are so many good features - it classifies different styles of looks that last then shows how to adapt them to different body shapes and to different seasons; it features suggestions and ideas to match these diff kinds of looks; best of all, it encourages you to think creatively about what you already have in your wardrobe and not rush out to buy more stuff. there are lots of other good features too - too many to list here but clearly this is a book that has been really carefully conceived.
Unlike some presenters/stylists on TV Nicky H Jones does not appear more interested in herself than the people she is styling, doesn't make women look cheap or like tarts, is realistic about what the ordinary person can afford and really does have a genuinely inspired sense of style. I've had loads of compliments since trying out some of the suggestions in this book even being called 'cool' several times (this is def a first!) having grown up in wellies on a welsh farm with no idea at all on style i consider this to be nothing short of amazing. and that is just a week after buying it. best of all I feel positive for the first time ever about my looks. Thanks Nicky you really are a complete star!

Inspirational 'style cookbook',
By
This review is from: How to be Gorgeous: Wear It Your Way and Feel Like a Goddess Every Day (Hardcover)
I watched a couple of times NHJ's 10 years younger program. Despite it was fairly good I didnt' really stick to it because of the cosmetic surgery involved (I make an exception for dental surgery) and because I had already absorbed a lot of information through "What not to wear".
I bought this book based on viewing the first few pages and the cookbook concept totally appealed to me. The layout is very pleasant, well sectionned into trends where you can cherry-pick elements of inspiration to create a whole outfit. As she mentions, rightly so, trends have been more or less the same for the last 10 years under different names. It's particularly obvious in UK where high-street brands closely draws off from famous designers. I absolutely loved the styling suggestions charts that can be easily applied with what you already have in your wardrobe and maybe didn't think of. She really teaches you how to pull a whole look together your own way. The Winter/Summer suggestions (or how to make the transition from one season to the next for each trend group) are simply genius. I'v often found this transition difficult for no clear reason so this part was very helpful to me. The only things I didn't like so much about the book were the body shape and make-up tips. Both could take a whole book and many trial and error sessions if you know nothing about it. Body shape is the backbone of great style in my opinion, so I'd recommend you also get other books dedicated to it (e.g. Trinny and Susannah, Bradley Bayou). The women shown to present the various suggestions are not perfect UK8 models which may not be appealing for some though they're real women. I much appreciated the fact that the author states that all rules can be broken. And as usual, books do help but the hard work's still up to you!
