review 1: After a crappy encounter with a patron, I came home with this awesome book and read it cover to cover, something I hadn't done in years! And it provided much fun and relaxation, just what I needed, especially since I had to go back to work later to close. I've enjoyed watching Clinton on his TV show "What's not to wear" and have always wondered what he would do with my wardrobe. Other women's mistakes are so obvious but what about myself? I have an extremely limited clothes budget, well, okay, I have no clothe budget so getting to spend five grand on a wardrobe would actually be hard for me. I'd want the cash for other things or buy as many clothes as possible. My style has changed over the years and especially since I went back to work after 20 plus years of staying ho... moreme with my children. I'm more willing to check out different colors and style and have thus found some of my favorite clothes that way. Gone are the days of the white top and navy or black bottom! While this is a very classic look that looks good on me, it can't be 90 percent to your wardrobe. Gone also are the days of the sweatpants for practically every occasion, except Sunday! As a mother, I looked for comfy clothes that could take a beating. Comfort is still my numero uno, but I want to look more put together while in the public eye and for my own sense of well-being. I've had fun the last few years stretching my clothing imagination. I agree with almost all of what Clinton says in this book (most of it is common sense and decency) EXCEPT for the calf-length skirt. I have ugly knees and wide calves so the calf-length covers this flaw wonderfully. So, if Clinton ever needs to look at my wardrobe, I will hide my beloved skirts!
review 2: I don't know why I persist in reading books like this, a combination of highlighting all the mistakes I make (and won't change- like wearing flip flops all the time or having wet hair) and self-praising myself for the things I do right. But I love Clinton and Stacy from TLC's What Not to Wear and this book was soo Clinton- same humour and personality. A good, quick read. Just don't take it too seriously. less

LOVE Clinton's sense of humor, however I don't think I would like to meet the man in person. Harsh!
