A review by kit_e
Lauren Conrad Style by Lauren Conrad

4.0

Surprisingly I really enjoyed this book. I have a secret addiction to style shows and on occassion even attempt to ramp up my own wardrobe. I also really love Conrad's line at Kohl's, but I was unsure of what to expect from this book. I was really pleasantly surprised. I anticipated alot of plugging her own line, instead I found really well thought out guidelines for making the most of your wordrobe. Conrad highlighted differnt articles of clothing instead of brands and I found that to be really refreshing. I especially liked the chapter about how to clean out your overstuffed closet. It was a interesting look into how she lives and how you can take some of what she does and apply it to herself. Occasional mentions were made of her time on reality TV, but only as they applied to the subject at hand, and I never felt like she was trading on her tv persona in this book. Instead I felt like I was reading a book about creating your own personal style by someone who really knew what they were talking about. This is by no means a heavy read, and you can blow through it in under an hour, but for what it is, a style guide, it's really well done. If you have a budding fashionista, or someone who is in dire need of an overhaul, this would be a great book to grab up for the holidays!
