Lots of fun!:
This book is a lot of fun. It gives permission to ladies who have said no to themselves while saying yes to others. Adaptation of beauty soaks to a more frugal lifestyle and paring down dates to real setting for a country girl was a nice exercise in creativity. I would recommend this book and if you have a BFF or Sister buy two and share the fun!

Its OK, doesnt worth the money:
The book is for women over 40, but you don't really know it till you start reading.
It has some interesting points of views on colors and accessories, but most of the advise are for the cooler times and i didn't find anything useful for the hot summer times...
Some Good Suggestions, Too Much Work:
If you're ready to take hours and hours to find your "diva style", this book is for you. I was looking for something that didn't require so much "homework". The "spa" sections of the book I thought were ridiculous... like hiring a masseuse to come to your home to meet you and your friends for a "spa" day. I can't think of 1 person that has that kind of money to throw away. There are several "assignments" in the book that really do help you determine your style if you need that kind of help.more info
