Great information.

This book has great information. The format is easy, just check the content page and see whatever chapter you're interested in - clothing, eye makeup, hair color, the perfect jeans and lots more. Simple changes can make a big difference. Fun to read and plenty of easy changes to consider - I probably won't ever wear high heels but keeping the tennis shoes for actual sport activities is probably a good idea. I love that she gives the names of products of what to try like Clinique's Bamboo Pink lipstick. It was an quick and inexpensive change to soften my face!

Just what I needed

This book is the perfect kick in the butt I needed to make my downward spiral into Old Ladyhood come to a screeching halt. A daily beauty regimen has been started; new makeup has been bought; new shapewear has been ordered; the hair has been highlighted; and Y & H jeans are here. All of this supports a new attitude which, of course, is the foundation for success in this New Me program. Each chapter is worth the price of this book. Highly recommended!

You Must Get This Book!

I'm 38 years old and believe it's never too early to deal with the aging process. What I love about this book is that Charla gives you easy tips that you can immediately implement and that don't break the bank. The tips on buying jeans alone was worth the price of the book. Finally, I would like to thank Charla for the resource segment at the end of the book. I live in Minneapolis and it's very rare that my city is covered. I already made an appointment with a hair stylist that was listed. LADIES BUY THIS BOOK!

THE fashion and beauty bible for women over 40!

There are plenty of fashion books and magazines on the market but very few are specifically geared towards the over 40 set. But today's aging baby boomer population is looking better and younger than ever - and authors are beginning to take notice. Books such as Bobbi Brown's "Living Beauty" dispense sage advice on how to age gracefully and still look slick despite a few wrinkles or gray hairs. Charla Krupp's newest offering "How Not To Look Old" is one of the best (if not the best!) books for women who are aging but don't want to hang up the jeans and become a frump in elastic pants and helmet hairdos. Written in a friendly and conversational tone, Krupp points out all the little things that can make one look old and dated but then kindly shows you how to hide the flaws and look "up to the minute" but not like you are "trying too hard". There are suggestions for hair (grow it out, get some bangs, etc.), teeth (whiten them, veneers, flossing, etc.), makeup (lighten up the foundation, switch to cream blush, etc.), clothing (skirts should hit just below the knee, avoid high rise jeans, etc.) and more! At the end of each chapter, she lists favorite products, designers, and stylists. It's a brilliant book and Krupp sure knows her stuff - she's been in the beauty industry for years and writes an excellent column for "More" magazine, which is written for women who are mature and savvy. I'm going to put a few of her suggestions to use - specifically cutting my waist length gray hair (parted in the middle!) into something chicer and less "old hippie". This will be a big scary change for me but after reading this book, I realize how passé and aging it really is. I've already ditched the dark lipstick and the powder blush and have to say, she is right. I am recommending this book to all my friends! (By the way, this is a book on fashion only - there is no exercise routine, vitamin recommendations, etc.)
