Not pics of suggested outfits
Very nice book with great suggestions.. but as far as putting things together for deferent looks hard to visualize as there are no pictures of the suggested outfits just a very long list of items to put together.Not as helpful as I expected without pics.

I cut my closet space in half.
It’s the kind of title that makes you roll your eyes and say, “Yeah right!” Thing is, I’d moved and the closets were TINY. As crazy as it sounds, this book helped. In fact, it changed more than my closet. This book changed me. I look at my closet now and everything goes with everything else. It’s no longer an ocean of black with pops of random color here and there. I have things I love, colors that work with each other, and I can get dressed in a heartbeat Without digging to try to figure out what to wear. The grid in the back of the book is overkill for me, but the process was priceless. I’m really glad I bought this book.

Gift idea
Book has good ideas but left me lacking for more detailed information. I returned it because it is was a gift and decided to return it after reviewing it.

Don't bother
This book was too much. She has PAGES of ways to coordinate outfits and it is FAR too complicated for a normal human being to follow. The beginning chapters were cute and seemed easy to follow but the rest of the book was annoying and difficult to follow. It went to Goodwill.

Very helpful!
Really helpful - even with using my existing pieces (post closet clear out!) I was able to put together looks that I've never tried before. The best part? My work colleagues mentioning that they've nevet seen these outfits before, despite it being clothes I wear all the time.

Author shouldn't miss lead folk just to sell or to mark themselves as a author
I didn't like nothing about this book. It hed me thinking that I would have pictures out of this 1000 outfits from 30 pieces. A book full of writing that makes no sense to me and I've been sewing for over 40 yrs. This book is a hot mess. I wasted my money on this product. Please don't waste your money. Cecilia

Solid information
I really enjoyed this book. She dove right in and covered a lot of information. From some of the other reviews I expected it to be sort of fluffy but she really had solid information and I especially resonated with the 80/20 rule. Would recommend

I don't see the Appendix with all the outfits listed on my Amazon Fire Tablet
Firstly, it is odd how I have 50 or so blank pages in the appendix where the lists should be when viewing on my Amazon Fire? Yet, I can see all the pictures and text elsewhere thru out the book? And if I look at this book thru Kindle via my PC...I can see the lists? What gives? Sadly, it's no real loss, as I agree with the other reviewers...if changing a bag or shoe color makes that white tank and black slacks not the same outfit you wore yesterday, I'd say that's pushing the numbers a bit far. so not sure on that. At work, your shoes are under your desk and that bag is in your drawer, right? I found the book a very easy read...so easy in fact, I was just scanning towards the end. It's redundant, overly basic and trying too hard to be funny. However, there is a tidbit of useful info (but not new ideas) and I did actually like her "capsule wardrobe selections" referenced in the chapters. That being said...I'm glad I didn't spend more, and I really should read the reviews first (especially when I'm sleepy and it's very easy to buy on Amazon after downloading the sample).

Really helpful!
This book takes all the guesswork out of outfit planning, and trying to decide what to wear. Lots of hints on flattering styles for all body types. Totally recommend this book!

Interesante pero ...
Interesante para alguien que normalmente no lea al respecto de styling o imagen, la autora lo hace muy ameno la mayor parte del contenido. En lo personal la segunda parte que es donde viene el mayor contenido del libro creo que el chart no me pareció muy digerible.

Sconsigliato!
Assolutamente sconsigliato! Nonostante io non sia una fashion addicted le regole base le conosco e ormai oserei dire che tranne rari casi, la maggior parte delle persone le basi le conosce. Questo libro non aggiunge nulla di nuovo, banale di una banalità incredibile per una scrittrice che si definisce Fashion Stylist. :(Buttato via i soldi.

Had to return the book, find that printing this book is a waste of wood
The content of the book is quite simple. It mentions of usual blazers, pencil skirts, trousers, ladies tees + accessories, shoes, bags, those.There is very little illustrations for people who might want to learn.Personal opinion: I find the printing of this book a waste of natural resource. why: half of the book is just tables of very small words and table telling of combinations - not sure the usefulness? it is printed on quality paper, and color printing, however too little illustrations and mostly just black printed words.
