Book Reviews of Dressing Nifty After Fifty

Book Review: Enthusiastically recommended reading for women over 50
Summary: 5 Stars

Looking your best every day is just as important at 50 as it ever was in childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, or middle-age. Fashion, grooming, and looking lovely is good for one's self-esteem and confidence, socialization with others, and just plain getting the most out of what life has to offer us. In "Dressing Nifty After Fifty: The Definitive Guide To A Simple, Stylish Wardrobe", Corinne Richardson shows how anyone on any budget can look nice, build up their wardrobe based on three basic colors, add zest to their appearance through the use of color, look taller and thinner with the right kind of apparel, combine style and comfort with their footwear, get the most out of their clothing budget, and simply "stay gorgeous as time goes by". Practical, sensible, economy minded, 'reader friendly', and occasionally down right inspiring, "Dressing Nifty After Fifty" is enthusiastically recommended reading for women over 50 who want to look as good sartorially as they did when they were 25!

Summary of Dressing Nifty After Fifty

Imagine owning the perfect wardrobe. It's easy with Dressing Nifty After Fifty, the definitive guide to a simple, stylish wardrobe.

Just as one size does not fit all, one wardrobe does not fit all. Unlike any other wardrobe book, the process outlined in Dressing Nifty After Fifty is highly individualized, asking the reader to start by making a list of her activities during a typical 14-day period. Next, she'll discover how to build a wardrobe on three basic colors, enhance her body shape with clothes, look thinner and taller, add spice to her outfits with her most flattering colors, and combine comfort and style with her shoes. To help the reader complete her ideal wardrobe plan, tips are included for closet cleanup, clothing maintenance, shopping, grooming, travel, and ways to stay gorgeous as time goes by.

By adopting this system of dressing, the reader will have a wardrobe for all of her activities. She will find that by concentrating on the quality, rather than the quantity, of her wardrobe, she will love and wear everything that she owns. Most important, she will gain a sense of control over her life, giving her the freedom to spend her energy and time on the things she wants to do and the people she loves.
