review 1: I liked it. It's not news that you don't have to spend a lot of dough to end up looking stylish and well-dressed, but Nina Garcia gives her take on it and doles out some good advice based on her own experiences. I have to say that Ruben Toledo's illustrations are so cool. I love looking through the book just to see those... and then there are little fun fashion and life-related quotes throughout. A light, fun read.
review 2: Ok, let's all face it: Nina isn't a writer. After reading the very long author's note, I kind of had the feeling that I wouldn't learn much- and I didn't! Nina talks too much about setting up clothing swap parties but she doesn't explain enough about how to cultivate your own style or where to find inspiration for it. There are a few good t... moreips in this book but overall it was a shallow, fluff excuse for a book. I really expected more from a magazine fashion director, but you can't win 'em all. Look on the bright side, at least the pictures are cute (and possibly are more entertaining). less
