Seems like a good staple that others would like. Would be good to target clothing stores to sell it as easy merchandising opps

This was interesting and easy to follow through with genuinely good tips especially for the newbies and eager fashion enthusiasts.

I cannot tell a lie. I did a bit of shopping after reading this book! Someone like me, an admitted fashion-phobe is not the target audience, but wait... maybe I am? It was interesting to read about fashion because I normally would not. I appreciated the tone, the layout, and that it seemed sensible. I also admit I didn't finish it, because I got overwhelmed and feared I'd end up doing more shopping. Just kidding! I think it is a fine book even for people like me!

Thank you to NetGalley for an advance copy of this book. I enjoyed exploring new terrain.

This book starts off with picking the pieces that would make up the perfect capsule wardrobe, from there the author lays out exactly what items should be in your closet, where to wear them, and with what shoes, accessories are needed. There is also a chapter with everything you need to know about denim and one on workwear. I thought the whole book was nicely done and informative.

This book was written for people like me. There are sections on helpful subjects, such as different types of clothing and occasions,with very practical advice. There are basic illustrations and groups of clothing to show a potential collection. The thing that surprised me the most was that some of the advice ended up with the author admitting that she didn't necessarily dress the fanciest, and the most helpful advice was that its' about style, not fashion. I can choose items that suit my personality and show off my style without worrying that I don't wear the most current fashion, while still looking appropriate for every occasion. This book is about 200 pages but it felt comprehensive. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this.

Do you remember that show What Not to Wear? This reminded me of that, but so much better! This book is a quick read, and can be used as more of a reference manual. The table of contents is extremely helpful and well organized. I especially liked all of the celebrity tips and tricks sprinkled throughout the book.

Clothes play a crucial role in how we feel about ourselves every day. They have the power to boost our mood or bring it down. How to Wear Everything is a great guide whether you're starting from scratch or refining your style, covering essential wardrobe pieces, styling tips, and more. From building a capsule wardrobe to mastering denim and workwear, it's informative and well-crafted for anyone looking to enhance their fashion game.

I am not a fashion enthusiast in its purest form, but I give my outfits some weight as they help me reflect my personality, feel comfortable, warm or cool, and keep me dry, healthy and I like functionality, comfort and my personal style.
I requested this book because I have long been a fan of chronicle and I wanted to learn more tips, and see some smart tips gathered in one book.
Nicely presented, this book offers great advice and the writing is engaging.
Was glad to see turtlenecks and ‘trust Levi Strauss. You don’t know better than them’.
I like the emphasis on the personal, the feel and the timelessness rather than trends, fast fashion and industry in this book.

This one is a quick read. As a fat person, it probably didn't apply to me as much as others.
I'm also a maximalist, but who knows? Kay Barron is knowledgeable and admits and preaches simplicity (capsule wardrobes) and quality over quantity. Capitalism is tough, and the fashion industry sets trends for us to consume. I like that Barron's book focuses on timeless fashion, which I think is something everyone needs to master. I know my sense of style, and while I don't agree with all of Barron's takes and assessments, what we do agree on is that you do not need to buy new things for every single event. Quality is better than quantity, and that when you do find things that work for you, treasure them and find someone (tailor, cobbler, etc) to help you fix them instead of giving up on them. I like that Barron also got others who are experts in their niche (fashion-wise) to comment on parts of the book that apply the most.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the DRC.

Lots of great, practical styling tips. I was reading this while packing for a posh vacation and it sparked lots of perfect fashion ideas! Especially color ideas & bag solutions! The chapter on black was my favorite! But I do disagree with the statement you don’t need espadrille wedges! I find them comfortable and timeless! This is definitely an important style book to have on your shelf!

I picked up this book specifically because I used to love clothes so much, but now feel a bit overwhelmed by it all and have been considering the idea of a capsule wardrobe. This book starts off with that topic right off the bat, and now I'm inspired to do a SEVERE edit of my wardrobe--and perhaps add a few more basics... From there, I'll keep the section on workwear open since I'm definitely out of practice there. I enjoyed the format of this book, and appreciated the summaries at the end of each section, along with the illustrations that complemented the photos. The author's bossiness is appreciated in print (though may be hard to endure in person!). I may have to pick up a hard copy of this one for the bookshelf.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. All opinions are my own.
