Fantastic primer and reference.
I still pull this book off the shelf every year to refresh. In fact, I'm on my second copy after wearing out the first. I highly recommend this book for high school and college graduates starting out. Most of us don't start with a lot of money to invest in clothing. I started out similarly to the book's suggestions. I've advanced considerably since then and this has been a great guide in growing ...

Intelligient, insightful and indispensable.
As an interior designer I found Chic Simple to be one of the most important books in my library. Their information is inspirational, giving the reader an outline to color in with their own personal brush. The book is a unique approach to design and decorating.

Fashion challenged? You don't have to be...
This is a gorgeous book, organized by season with a sizable section for situation-specific outfits. This is the best ChicSimple women's book because it covers the areas that work, etc. cover, only now you get bonus material and only have to buy one book! Some have criticized it for showing designer clothing or a more formal look than we in the South wear. Well, you can't go to the department ...

Great source for classic advice
I bought Chic Simple Women's Wardrobe when it first came out, and had reason to pull it out again when my wardrobe needed a complete overhaul due to weight loss. To my delight, the advice and the styles contained within are as fresh now as they were eight years ago. If you're looking for good, basic advice on how to build a classic wardrobe, you won't go wrong with the Chic Simple philosophy, and ...

Accessories for the Librarian
I had been wanting for some time to break out of the dowdy Librarian mode. I decided to start my transformation with a book on the basics on accessories and Accessories (Chic Simple) fit the bill perfectly. It has wonderful pictures which enhance the copy making it more understandable and interesting. It also has information about where to purchase every item in the book and how to maintain the ...

Found help to professionalize my image
My coworkers see a person destined for clerical glory when they interact with me. My wardrobe needs a serious makeover. However, my concern is not so much "the interview, succeeding in the job, and getting a better job". I'm starting a home-based business and I purchased this book to help me to kick up my image as a businesswoman. I didn't know how to put together a serious professional ...

Feel good about your body
My previous experience with the Chic Simple range was the clothing books, with the clothing set out against a plain white background. This is not the case with this book. This is a sumptious exploration of the human body, organised in neat sections as in the other books. Will you learn anything you didn't know before. Probably not. Will you finish the book feeling good about the body within which ...

'Don't agree; book just fine!
Unlike the first two reviewers of this book on Amazon, I really enjoy it and - as is rare with me - I actually purchased an excellent used copy via eBay for my personal collection. I borrow literally constantly from the libraries and am forever browsing in libraries and book stores to get my book "fixes;" actually purchasing is not common for me and I considered this book a special gift. I am ...

Work Clothes (Chic Simple): Casual Dress for Serious Work (Chic Simple Guides)

a visual treat, with a focus on quality clothes
This book boasts the catchy, elegant chic simple layout, with fully accessorized outfits laid out against a white background. The focus is on classic (and expensive), quality clothing (cashmere twin sets, Chanel flats, $300 Hermes scarves)-- but you could copy the ideas using less expensive basics. The idea is to pare down your wardrobe to the essentials, accessorizing the essentials to look ...

Great advice for women of ALL colors and races!!!
So many times, it's difficult to find make-up advice if you happen to have a unique skin coloring--and especially if you're of a diiferent race! Chic Simple gives easy to follow advice on how to make the best of the features each one of us have--not just the 8 supermodels in the world!!! Not only that, but there are a lot of pictures to show what they mean. I really liked the section that ...
