{PRETITLE} The Pocket Stylist: Behind-the-Scenes Expertise from a Fashion Pro on Creating Your Own Look {POSTTITLE}

Perhaps the single most vital thing I learned from this book is the all important shoulder to hip ratio and definition of waist that determines what shape you are. I myself, and countless other women tend to be so obsessed with perceived huge hips that we all dress like pears and wonder why we look lopsided. As someone with shoulders in proportion to my hips and a very defined waist, I should have been dressing very differently.

What this book will tell you:

1. This book will tell you how to dress for your specific body type, including fabrics and lengths that will look best on you.

2. It will give you ideas on indispensibles, including where to buy them, where to splurge and where to skimp. It will also tell you how to go bargain hunting without looking like you did.

3. It will tell you how best to work with your tailor, what is possible, what is not.

4. I am not a plus sized woman, but if I was,this book would be a godsend in many ways. Since Farr was stylist for plus sized women as well, she does not focus on a `dress in all black ensembles to look your slimmest' as though every curvy woman is ashamed of her shape. She helps women make style choices that flatter her existing shape.

What this book won't tell you:

1. What accesories work best with what outfit- apart from the obvious that a low vamp, with a high heel and pants pegged to the heel will make your legs look longer and platforms look cheesy. It does not cover much ground with accesories except for vague generalities.

2. Most of the online resources it provides are no longer there (luxlook, americanfit etc)

3. It does not give you any detailed color advice for women.
