This book is not about how to slavishly follow the latest fashion trends, it's about how to create your own personal style. Following fashion can be very costly. To keep up with fashion, you should buy things as soon as they go on sale and dispose of them at the end of the season. Fashion trends are very short-lived: they become obsolete as soon as they appear. Then a new direction appears, and any reminder of the previous trend makes you unfashionable.This book has one purpose - to help you express your personality and lifestyle in clothes. Much of the book is devoted to showing you how to dress in style, no matter what the trend. As the great fashion designer Coco Chanel once remarked: “Fashion passes, style remains.”
