Color With Style

Rating:
Summary: First Fashion Step
Review: If you want to get an amazing grip on your colors, this is the book. It covers all skin pigmentations so you need not fear that it will only work if you are white. My only negative comment to the book is about the advice on clothing styles. Ignore it. It is a small part of the book so no need to worry. The color work is beyond phenomenal and worth the book's price.

Summary: Pretty, But Is It Useful?
Review: This is beautiful, and multi-cultural; a visually lovely book. However, it's light on style and wardrobe-building, and not terribly useful to an individual. Caucasian, African-American, Asian, and Latinas are all presented here, in their multicolored splendor. If ever a self-help/beauty book could go on a coffee table, this would be it.

I am only giving this book 3 stars because of its limited usefulness to a single person. If you're an image consultant, it would be much more useful to you, because of its broad ethnic scope. I'd like to rate it higher because it's pretty, but pretty doesn't help you find your style and colors, does it? I do recommend it, and would confidently recommend it to a friend - as a library book.
