Have you ever looked at a badly dressed woman and wondered "What was she thinking?" Find the answer to this question in the insightful book You Are What You Wear: What Your Clothes Reveal About You by Dr. Jennifer Baumgatner. This book delves into the issue of WHY we dress in ways that are unflattering and inappropriate to who we are today.
In this unique fashion guide, the author offers reader an opportunity to do a real makeover that starts from the inside (attitude, behaviours and habits) and works it's way out so your clothing and appearance is a positive reflection of you while making positive changes in your life..
The author delves into common fashion traps, including compulsive shopping, dealing with overflowing closets, when you find your look boring, when your look it too revealing, too young, all work and no play, how to break out of a fashion rut and offers practical solutions for each issue.
One of the things I love about this entertaining book is that it doesn't tell you to dump your "fun" clothes just because you never wear them. Instead encouraging you to get rid of those unworn clothes that reflect aspirations to enjoy more social outings, attend creative events and exhibits or do something beyond your boring routine the author encourages you to get a life! This is the first fashion book that I have ever read that encourages readers to create a life they want and then dress accordingly.
