This was a quick read. Read it on a Friday night in. I bought this book when I was in college and cared a little more about what I wore. I met Lauren in SF and was so happy to meet her. As for the book, it was a fun girly read. Sure, it's full of advice most twenty-somethings have figured out on their own by now but I still appreciated the refresher. No one picked up this book expecting to be deeply enlightened. A guilty pleasure indeed. Lauren Conrad we all know her from her television show The Hills where you saw how fabulous her style was and no one could forget her signature bun. I picked this up because I've seen pictures of Lauren Conrad on the Hills and on the red carpet and she always looks amazing.The book starts off with wardrobe essentials: the white-collared button down shirt, the black boots, the dark-wash jeans. It's all stuff we've heard of before. Lauren then gives a few tips and tricks for everyday classics: how to find the perfect pair of jeans, how to find the best casual tee for your body type, and mixing patterns. She has a few chapters devoted to makeup and jewelry as well. But none of it is anything you haven't heard before if you've read previous style books.This book is great for girls who need tips on fashion related issues. It gives great advice on style techniques. There is information on how to create a smokey eye, what to pack when going on different vacations or getaways, accessories, clothing, and shoes. I have referred back to it numerous of times. It is my fashion to go book. There is one thing that stuck out the most "My seven-year-old self would throw on some jewels, heels, fluorescent bike shorts (to, you know, make the outfit more 'daytime'), and heart-shaped sunglasses and march into those meetings looking fabulous. But that doesn't exactly fly when you want to be taken seriously (Conrad)".Don't we all wish we could dress like that, like we did when we were kids and no one cared that we wore sneakers with our Sunday dress or that our our t-shirt didn't match our shorts.
