Instead, discover your own unique beauty and how to work with it - in alignment with who you are, your lifestyle, your body type, your age - and your budget. Conveying her message with the wit and warmth of Erma Bombeck and the wisdom and wonderment of Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Janet shares vignettes of her inspiring journey from feeling like the most unattractive girl in the 8th grade to a woman who finally came to realize that she looks damn good! If she can do it, you can, too. Learn how in "Look DAMN Good"! Looking DAMN Good is ultimately an inside job. Janet shares practical, down-to-earth tips that she's used with hundreds of women with phenomenal results. It's not about how big your budget is; you don't have to buy a lot of clothes - just a few of the right ones. And Janet tells you HOW to shop and WHAT to buy. Join Janet as she uncovers the powerful attitudes about ourselves and our bodies that deeply impact the image we project to the world. Janet's unique approach focuses on the internal attitude shift - AND the real know-how - that will give you the confidence you need to make phenomenal changes in your inner and outer selves. Emerge comfortable and confident, with a spring in your step - looking DAMN good!

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this book!, August 15, 2007

This review is from: Look Damn Good: At Your Age, With Your Body and On Your Budget (Paperback)

Listen up, ladies! Buy this book -- (better yet, hire her if you live in the New Jersey area!) It's a quick read jam-packed full of her wise and witty adages, relatable stories and specific how-to's. It feels just like sitting down to chat with her over a cup of tea.

After hiring Janet to work with me as an Image Consultant, I knew I HAD to buy her book. She is such a font of wisdom -- and funny, too -- and so REAL. Reading and re-reading her book has re-affirmed and solidified everything I learned from her about how to "look damn good".

With Janet's help, I feel incredibly grounded and confident in my own beauty. I feel and look better than I ever have (even though I'm near the top of what I've ever weighed -- go figure!). And I get compliments wherever I go. (Which comes in handy as I am going through a divorce! LOL)

Do yourself a huge favor and buy this book. And buy a few extra copies to give to the special women in your life -- then you can help each other Look DAMN Good every day!

This review is from: Look Damn Good: At Your Age, With Your Body and On Your Budget (Paperback)

This book is full of great information from a loving professional woman. She writes like she speaks and is full of compassion and geniune caring for women. Janet volunteers her time helping women with this information and more in addition to being a highly paid image consultant with some major Fortune 500 corporations. At this price to have her expert knowledge put into such an easy to read format, it is a gem that will become a classic. MUST READ.

I love this book! This is not just a book about dressing beautifully no matter your age, size, or budget; this is a book about bringing your inner beauty out into the world. Janet is a loving guide as she helps you connect with your essence and then helps you dress it into the most gorgeous package possible. If you can't work with Janet in person this is surely the next best thing.
