I was sent a copy of Nina Garcia’s: LOOK BOOK. I am keeping it real as I always do, and I must say that I love this book. I already own her other two, so this one just joined the group. I love that there is a suggestion for almost every occasion that you can think of. She even educates on what to carry in your bag for each occasion, and suggests how to wear your hair. It’s a no brainer for those that hate the idea of outfit planning.
There is a page titled: What to wear to your child's sporting event. The image that was recommended was identical to what I have worn to my sons games. I almost jumped! I wear my glasses like that because of photo taking.I have the short hair. Replace the soccer ball with a football/basketball and its me. Oh, I wear Chuck Taylor Converse with mine. Was someone watching lil ole me?
Almost Identical Huh? (THIS PICTURE OF ME IS FROM MARCH AND THESE PANTS HANG OFF ME NOW THAT I HAVE LOST WEIGHT)
Jacket: Harajuku Lovers, and Army pants: GAP
Gardening? Tee and Overalls: Gap
These outfits are totally attainable which is what I love. Below is a photo of what to wear on a first date. Jeans, and a cute top? Easy. This page tells about what to wear on a business trip.
- choose fabrics that don't wrinkle easily
- invest in your business style essentials
- bring layers
- err on the side of formality when traveling
- pack at least one day before you leave
This outfit details what to wear when you want a raise. This is my look. I have always been the one to out dress my boss. She was always a sloppy mess, which I could never understand. Flip flops to the office on a day other than Friday?
If my dates are right. I should be getting me that short cut today.
A light airy wrap dress for spring. Dress: Banana Republic
It even tackles Valentines Day!
Hope you enjoyed this review, as much as I did. Great author, and great book for women across the globe getting dressed everyday.
XOXOX,

I just got that book today. Thanks for previewing it and I can't wait to look through it myself.
I have all her books as well Tam. Glad to see we are both Nina fans. I purchased this one the day it came out.
I so adore the images...
I have her other two as well, and I will purchase this one. I just purchased Lloyd Boston's second book "The Style Checklist". He, NIna, and Rachel Zoe are a part of my closet bookshelf! I love them! : )
