Rating: 2 / 5
I’ve read a TON of fashion/style books and own quite a few. Maybe I especially like Ms. Paige’s advice because most of what she recommends is stuff I’m already doing! But on the whole I thought her advice was very helpful, realistic and do-able. (Not like some other books that tell you to buy nothing but astronomically expensive famous designers — and STILL pay for custom tailoring.)

Great book! I agree with the other rewiews, it is really really full of great advices, tricks and “know how” of the fashion industry… all written in a smart and easy way!

Rating: 5 / 5
Great book for any fashionista on a budget! The book gives you great advice to save money but still be fashionable. It gives you realistic point of view in our recession… why spend more if you can get the “look” that you are craving for a lot more less. In our economy today, its stupid to waste money in extravagant fashion. This book is more about being “realistic” but you will still look fabulous. I truly enjoy reading this book!
