 PHOTOS TELL THE STORY May 23, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Photos tell the story in this glossy beautifully presented guide for all shapes, sizes, and ages. It includes basic wardrobe must haves, as well as accessories and coats. Harper's Bazaar Great Style covers choosing your own personal look, what to wear in the office, what to wear on a night out on the town, the little black dress, weekend casual, and even in the bedroom. This coffee-table quality book will never be out of style! Recommended! Also recommend THE 3:00 PM SECRET: Live Slim and Strong, Live Your Dreams
 Disappointment central May 13, 2008

I was really disappointed in this book. If your desire is to look like your favorite celebrity, then this is the book for you. It is more of a photo spread on how to copy a look like rather than creating your own style. There are other fashion 'how-to' books out there that are much better than this. 'In Style Secrets of Style' is a much better place to start. Try this book instead!
Great book for easy style ideas. March 25, 2008
What a fantastic book! I refer to it frequently for various fashion tips whenever I am having a blank moment! Being a mum of 3 I often dont have time to think too much about my wardrobe so this book has been really useful.
 Not worth purchasing March 22, 2008
I would suggest getting this from the library---it isn't a keeper. It does have some good general advice on building a work wardrobe. But it is mostly filled with pictures of celebrities (think People magazine). Many of the photos look like they are more the "worst" than "best" and yet they are discussed as a great look to emulate (for example, suits and coats that add pounds to otherwise in-shape celebrities---I can't believe they would include these photos). In parts of the book that show specific accessories and pieces, they don't tell you who the manufacturer is.
Very disappointing - glad I didn't buy it March 17, 2008

Agree with reviewer Ginny, this book is a waste of time, which is surprising since I think the magazine has some good information. Pictures of celebs which will quickly become dated and frankly a lot of them don't look very good, at least not something I would want to emulate. The new book "How not to look old" or the "Budget Fashionista" are far superior with useful, practical information that a real person could use to update their look. Glad I got this from the library instead of buying it.
