5.0 out of 5 stars Modern Womans Bible, 24 Sep 2005

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Walk in High Heels: The Girl's Guide to Everything (Hardcover)

Every week my grandma gives us the books she gets from The Mail on Sunday, out popped the mini version to this book. I read it and fell about.. so decided to buy the full book!! What a fantastic book. With each chapter it just gets funnier. Its a modern womans bible..it tells you how to play poker, knit and garden, make curtains, and how to cook a full english breakfast, shepards pie and spag bol. The love section is so humorous. Can't put it down and keep taking it to work to show everyone. I think when i have finished reading this book, i will be super woman. A must buy!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Fabulous!, 28 Nov 2005

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Walk in High Heels: The Girl's Guide to Everything (Hardcover)

I didn't really know what to expect from this book...perhaps a guide to fashion, 'not what to wear' style. I was wrong - this book includes advice on absolutely EVERYTHING a glamourous girl needs. Not only what to wear, but how to entertain, how to be a domestic goddess, how to cope with modern technology - even how to drive! Useful stuff... Anyway, I'm certainly taking Morton's advice, I even went to the supermarket yesterday in my high heels. Not yet mowed the lawn in my stilletos, but I'm getting there... This should be a bible for every modern girl out there, absolutely wonderful!

2.0 out of 5 stars Style over substance, 22 Jan 2006

By A Customer

This review is from: How to Walk in High Heels: The Girl's Guide to Everything (Hardcover)

I was very disappointed with this book. It has a great title, and the contents page promises a great deal. It is beautifully produced and the illustrations are lovely - I was looking forward to reading it.

The 'information', however, is superficial at best, and incorrect at worst. Any woman who is at least vaguely competent should know at least 80% of what's in this book already.

There's an uncritical acceptance that whatever leads the market must therefore be the best (e.g. in computer software and MP3 players); the information about fitting a bra is just wrong, as even the most basic research would have shown. It tells you that knitting is the bees knees, but doesn't tell you how to do it or any pointers on how to learn apart from 'get someone to show you'. Helpful.

Names are dropped all over the place - Oooh! Look at my famous friends! - which I found irritating. I was also annoyed by comments such as, "Any connoisseur will know that the only real way to travel is by car or taxi. Live the fantasy and sign off taxi reciepts for the obvious reason: 'SF' (Stiletto Fatigue)", and "If your escort is shorter than you in your highest heels dump him immediately. A pair of Manolos lasts a lifetime, and you shouldn't compromise style for love." And so on, ad infinitum. Since when was it stylish to be shallow?

The book is not well written, there are several errors that slipped by the editor, the index is unreliable, and I'm afraid Camilla Morton came over as the kind of shallow, glossy, self-absorbed woman I try to avoid at parties.
