I loved this happy little book. It's a perfect antidote to a gloomy day at work. I won't be doing all 151 suggestions but there are several that I'm definitely going to try.
Everything about the book says quality from the clever cover and and design to the glossy pages. This is a keeper---a book you'll come back to again and again like an old friend.

I enjoyed most everything about this book, starting with the clever cover design which contains a "pop-out" insert which reveals below it --what else?-- a cashmere sweater! Cute, and an enjoyable bit of sensory pampering right off the bat.

I found myself agreeing with author Jill Sanders that being a princess is NOT about "being some helpless thing who can't turn on a light switch", but rather, it's about being a woman who knows she DESERVES to feel special and well-cared for.

I didn't try all the tips, but the inexpensive ones I did sample had me thinking "Why haven't I done this before?!"

This book is a fun escape for you, or for a friend, and a good way to remind yourself to treat yourself well.

I loved this little book. It was full of fun tips which I have marked for future use. I am pairing this along with a cashmere scarf as the answer to my Christmas gift to all my female friends. Great advice and plenty of ideas that put this 60 hour a week manager back in touch with her feminine side. Now, I am just waiting for my mules to be delivered.
