Fashion Friday – giveaway!

First of all — Happy New Year!!!

Now, as much as I would love to show you a photo montage of my smashing and chic outfits this past week (I’ve been living in sweats), I thought I’d do something a little better.

How many of you made a resolution this year to improve or update your style and focus on YOU?

Well, I have the perfect toll for you. InStyle’s Instant Style.

Blurb about the book:

Ever been overwhelmed by a closet that feels like it’s filled with all the wrong pieces? Instant Style is the ultimate guide to streamlining, shopping for and maintaining your ideal wardrobe all year round.

The book starts with the basics, outlining the essential clothes items for each season—winter coats, spring skirts, summer sandals, fall sweaters—and shows how to complement these with pieces that accentuate your personal style. Learn which tops go with what pants, what kind of boots look best with different skirts, how the right bag can change the entire look of an outfit, and how to flatter your coloring and body type. Find out when to hit the best sales, what’s worth splurging on, and how to recognize high-quality clothes. Finally, benefit from the book’s comprehensive listing of In Style’s recommended stores around the country.

Instant Style is filled with hundreds of colorful photographs of clothes and celebrities that will inspire and delight readers and is the first book that gives readers everything they need to make shopping and clothes as enjoyable as they should be.

How AWESOME is that?!
