Rent: Dress to Express: Seven Secrets to Overcoming Closet Trauma and Revealing Your Inner Beauty

By Tracy McWilliams

Overview & Description

As Tracy McWilliams points out, most clothes and dressing anxiety starts with low self-esteem and lack of a basic idea and plan about clothing. No one teaches us what looks good and what works and how to assess our best clothing choices, yet the right outfit can make us feel like a million dollars. These feelings come from inside, of course, not from the clothes themselves. Use this book to express your self-image and increase your self-esteem.

A book on style that starts from the inside--yes, please! It's great to feel good in your clothes, but that's frosting on the cake. To feel beautiful inside and out takes so much more than a great scarf or well-cut jacket (fabulous as those are!), and this book is one of the very few that truly recognizes that. It's a shame that some people spend a huge amount of time and money on trying to perfect their outer image without realizing that there are people who feel (and are!) beautiful in thrift-store clothes and there are people wearing clothes from Vogue and W who feel flawed and ugly. This book goes much deeper than many books on style, and for that reason it's a fantastic addition to the books that focus only on fashion tips.

This book is o.k., just o.k.. The advice is fine but not revolutionary. There are other resources which can and do, cover the same subjects with greater clarity.

I recommend The Pocket Stylist which remains my all-time favorite (I am a bit addicted to books on fashion and style).

Too much psychology and not enough strategies...
Try "Ready to Wear", "The Pocket Stylist" or "Does This Make Me Look Fat?".
