About this ebook
Style is not just about keeping up with the trends. It’s an attitude, a posture, a projection of personality. Simply put, to have style is to be able to demonstrate the best of yourself, outside and in. It is not always about making the boldest of choices, breaking the bank or braving the risqué. Sometimes the best statements are subtle, effortless, elegant. Everyone is capable of great style, but for those of you in any doubt, this book contains 100 easy lessons to help you on your way.
We all know that we don't read enough—but don't beat yourself up—read a little, you can still learn a lot. Read between sets at the gym, on your way to work, while queuing at the bank, or even wind down with a few lessons at bedtime. Dip in, dip out, learn something new along the way. Try it–you might just like it.
