Destiny's Child, one of the world's best-selling female groups, has an image and a style that's recognized worldwide. Here, Tina Knowles, the creator of the world-famous Destiny's Child style, shares their shopping, sewing, and lifestyle secrets. Destiny's Child's style has graced the covers of magazines everywhere. Their individuality both musically and style wise has captured the media's attention, influenced the style of women worldwide, and helped Destiny's Child land merchandising deals with AT&T, L'Oreal, and Candies. Now, Tina Knowles, their stylist and Beyonce's mother, inspires fans young and old to add a little Destiny's Style in to their life. Tina grew up wearing clothes she and her mother made together, and Tina has taught her daughters, Beyonce and Solange, the importance of embracing their individuality, being independent, and creating their own style. She started them sewing at a young age so they could personalize their own clothing-which Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, and Solange still do today. The outfits Tina creates for Destiny's Child's are often featured in In Style and Vogue. In this book, Tina not only shows how to dress the part of Destiny's Child, but shares shopping, cooking, decorating and entertaining tips that will make readers feel like they're part of the Destiny's Child family. She demonstrates how to incorporate Destiny's Child style and traditions into home decorating and entertaining. She also shares Destiny's Child's favorite recipes, from her old-fashioned gumbo recipe (which is so good that rap star JZ flies to Houston to have a bowl) to Kelly's favourite candies yams, to Beyonce's favourite peach cobbler.

A good read...but really a good buy?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Destiny's Style: Bootylicious Fashion, Beauty, and Lifestyle Secrets from Destiny's Child (Hardcover)
A longtime fan of Destiny's Child, I enjoyed this book. It was an inside peak at the lives of the triple platinum trio...but I found the price a little sketchy. Tina Knowles (Beyonce's Mom) also gives tips on how to look awesome, but the majority of these tips are old. Really...how does she expect us to run around customizing everything, and it'll turn out looking amazing? Hmmm. If you recieve this book as a gift, it's good, but I would recommend buying it unless you have experience in customizing.
4.0 out of 5 stars
The gumbo recipe alone makes this worth the buy,
This review is from: Destiny's Style: Bootylicious Fashion, Beauty, & Lifestyle Secrets from Destiny's Child (Hardcover)
Tina Knowles' delicious gumbo recipe makes the purchase of this book worth the cover price! Our family makes her recipe every holiday since purchasing this book, and it's always a hit at church, work or during Thanksgiving and Christmas. Yummm!

Even though it's full of really great ideas and tips. I would like to see some works that she has done for Non-Destiny's Child people.
