5.0 out of 5 stars Another superb book from the Chic Simple range - excellent!,
By Joanna Cannon (Ashbourne, Derbyshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is my new best friend! Like all the Chic Simple books, it is beautifully presented, easy to follow and incredibly helpful. Whatever the occasion - however formal or relaxed, this book will give you ideas on image and style. Although it does have very useful suggestions on basic buys for each season, it inspires you to look in your wardrobe and see your clothes with a fresh viewpoint. Previously little worn items will soon have a new lease of life! If you are considering buying a new item of clothing - STOP! Buy this book instead - you will never look back!

3.0 out of 5 stars Disorganized, Pricey, but Some Good Ideas, 7 May 1999
By A Customer
This book has a very attractive cover, but it is not organized for a reader who is trying to follow it like a Do-it-Yourself Manual. The pictures were very nice and the clothes very nicely put together. I admit that I have to read the book cover to cover a few times before I could really put some of the good ideas into practices. So if you are looking for a Manual type book, this is not for you. Also, it's a bit pricey for what it's worth. The 'packaging of the book' (fancy layout, fancy photography) must cost a lot more than the content itself.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nice pictures but not much help, 7 Feb 1999
By A Customer
I agree with the reviewer who said "if you're over 30 or don't live in NY/LA, don't waste your money." (Also, if you weigh more than 115 pounds this book is only going to depress you.) I really wish I hadn't ordered it; it's of no use to me--which doesn't mean it wouldn't help some people, but only a small group of women.

5.0 out of 5 stars A "must have"!
This is the "must-have" reference tool for your wardrobe! How many times have we asked ourselves, "what should I wear?" to a particular occasion?! Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Book
I agree with the people that said it is for people who are under thirty, live in N.Y.C. or L.A., and are under 115 pounds. But it does contain some helpful hints.

3.0 out of 5 stars pretty pictures, entertaining reading
The pictures are beautifully done, and the organization of clothes into the four seasons works out well. The self-consciously hip attitude was annoying though. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars If you are over 30 don't waste your money on this book.
Disorganized, hard-to-follow book featuring clothes that would be inappropriate for most occassions unless you are under 30 or live in NYC - maybe in Los Angeles. Read more
