Note this entry has been in the works since Friday, but due to a variety of "fun" and "interesting" things that have happened, which I am not getting into right now, you are getting it now.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have spoken before<\/a> about my love of the fabulous Tim Gunn. Well Tim has come out with his own book on fashion.<\/p>\n

This book wants to show women how to dress. Not in a What Not to Wear<\/span> way, where they belittle you and humiliate you. That would be the tear you down to build you up philosophy.<\/p>\n

No, Tim Gunn wants to shows women how to dress without losing site of their personality. "We can do better" is his motto. Tim feels that he is taking women on a journey of growth and self-discovery that will lead them to look better and feel better.<\/p>\n

Tim’s philosophy about fashion is that women really only need a few essential pieces to make a wardrobe that will be ready for any occasion. All the pieces must be soul stiring and look fabulous on you. You deserve no less.<\/p>\n

This book is written to mimic Tim’s breezy and verbose speaking style. As you read it, you feel like you are watching Project Runway<\/span> and he is your mentor. And that makes it easier to remember his advice when you shop. The book has also inspired the Bravo TV show Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style<\/span>.<\/p>\n

If you are looking to update your look, are fashion challenged or just like a good non-fiction read, this is the book for you. And fellas, just cause it is written for women, does not mean it can’t help you either.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
