I've been interested in fashion and being unique with clothes since seventh grade (im in eighth now). So, I was looking through the young adult section of Barnes & Noble several weeks ago when I stumbled across this book and began reading it. I was so fascinated in the fact that somebody had actually written a book on fasihon and clothes that I bought it right away.

Because the author is a fifteen-year-old high school student, the fashions are pretty much what people are wearing as of today. At the beginning, the book includes ideas on clothes to flatter your body type, shopping tips, and ideas for taking your old clothes and making them new. The majority of the book is devoted to the outfits, which are modeled on real teen girls and are composed of all the fashions that teens love (minis, heels, etc.)

While the fashions were pretty creative and could give you some great ideas, they weren't anything too special. Anybody who has a creative mind could easily come up with outfits like this- or even better. But if you are stuck in a rut, you should definitely check this book out for ideas. Another annoying thing I found was that a lot of the outfit ideas were based on hip-hop style... I know that lots of people are into that, but I thought the book was lacking more in more feminine, classic, and wild styles, which I am more fond of. I also didn't understand why the author recommended wearing thong undewear and seemed to worship them so much, but then again, to each her own. The fashions may be dated in several years, but that shouldn't stop you from buying this book if you're interested in developing your own personal style. Just use this book for inspiration, and soon you will be able to come up with great outfits on your own.

Have you ever woken up in the morning and found that you have nothing to wear? Well now, you can learn how to put together new outfits and make new clothes out of the same book! Make matches you would have never thought of and have fun doing it. It's all about clothes. Find the teen fashionista in yourself.

This book has such great capacity to be good. The title is intriguing and interesting. However, I do not think that the book contains enough things that were promised. The book only contains a few tips on what you should wear and a lot of it is bulked out with pictures. Admittedly, the pictures are very interesting, but they do not teach us about what clothes we should wear. It is the start to a very interesting topic but I think that it needs more.
