Book Reviews of A Guide to Elegance: For Every Woman Who Wants to Be Well and Properly Dressed on All Occasions

Book Review: FLUFF
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a neat little book . And I actually enjoyed reading it quite a bit. some practical advise and some fluff a nice mix when one is reading about dresses. but then again I like classic dressing simple styles. if you love colors and trends and lots of poof and feathers this is not a book you will enjoy.. I would have loved to read this book when I was 15.. but it is just as applicable no matter the age .. a nice present for someone who needs an excuse to redo her wardrobe.
since reading I have emptied the closet a bit more .. donated various piles of clothing I truly never wear .. ( and maybe some I never did wear... who knows maybe it will encourage you to shop less impulsively. After all how many black dresses do we really need !!!! last I counted I had about 30 !!!
