Crafts and Life

Susannah Constantine and Trinny Woodhall have regularly doled out their upper-crust fashion advice via the pages of Saturday's Daily Telegraph, establishing themselves as style experts on their mission to show that how ever tall or short, large or small you may be there are ways to look great all the time.

In Ready2Dress Susannah and Trinny call on four very different women who between them represent just about everything we either love or hate about our bodies. By assessing their individual body shapes and dishing out the odd tip on make-up, hair and the essential items that should provide the basics for every self-respecting fashion victim, the intrepid duo swing into action to prove that anyone–yes, really, anyone–can look fabulous.

Complete with a directory of "must-have" addresses, Ready2Dress gets up close and personal with the bits of our bodies we just love to hate and drags us kicking and screaming through a zesty and irreverent shopping spree that covers every clothing nightmare from bum-too-big to packing for a business trip.

Definitely one for the girls, Ready to Dress is a light and fluffy tour through the heart of the dull and dingy wardrobe–it certainly isn't brain surgery but, hey, it was never supposed to be. –Susan Harrison

This was a fun and fluffy read, not quite what I was hoping for but it did give me a few pointers on how to plan my wardrobe! Mainly when it comes to styles, what I really want though is an idea on what colours I should wear.
