I have bought nearly every fashion book there is, and by far, this is my favorite! It totally beats trinny and susannah, InStyle and all of the other books out there. One thing that is especially good, is that it shows photos real clothes, not drawings. Also, it is packed with photograps, not all the text (which is also necessary, but in moderation) that in many other of my books. It aslo deals with how much ou really need of everything and helps doing the hard job of getting rid of your "old friends" read, the clothes you bought for some good reason you end up never wearing. Now I only hope for a Lucky 2!
