Make this your Fashion/Fitness Bible!

For those of us who are not in perfect shape, this book is like the answer to a prayer. It's the first book I've ever read that combines fashion tips with fitness tips. It was written by uber jeans model Paige Adams-Geller and fitness expert Ashley Borden. If you have too much junk in the trunk, Paige tells you how to dress to de-emphasize it, and Ashley helps you get rid of it. This really is a bible of tips. It covers fashion, nutrition and exercise, and all the tips are practical and sensible. I've read books that blithely say "Contact a well known local stylist," or "Find that perfect little Dior in a resale shop and accessorise it." Sadly, I live on planet earth where this is not possible. On the other hand, this book provides basic tips on small ways to alter your eating habits, easy to follow fitness and exercise tips, and some good ideas for dressing to emphasize your assets. It explains how to determine your body type and defines the styles that are best for you ... and more important, how to find clothes that really fit. Regarding nutrition, I especially liked the tips that show how someone can stick to their food plan while on the road for business or holidays ... or if you are dating or married to Mr. Eats Everything and you have to share a table with pizza and pasta on a regular basis. The fashion tips provided the biggest eye opener. It's amazing how, after reading the book, my sensibility about fit has improved. And it's true...clothes that fit well feel better and make you look better. Paige Adams-Geller is such a sensible woman for a fashionista, I almost forgive her for that model-perfect rear end. I've seen Ashley Borden on TV a couple of times, so I was familiar with her exercise routines. The book sticks to her basic principles of don't bite off more than you can chew when it comes to exercise. Keep it simple and do-able, and you'll stick with it. It's all about doing things in moderation so we don't walk away, and really, that's just good thinking. And finally, the book does one other smart thing. It's divided into chapters by body part - so flat-chested among us don't have to read it from A to Z and suffer through tips about disguising an overabundant bust before reaching the section on derrieres. The book helped me understand more about my body shape. Instead of the old fashioned "Pear Shaped" or "Hour Glass" -- which nobody really is, the book uses gemstone cuts to define body types, with serious explanations and real measurements to guide where you fit in. I would recommend this book to anyone who is fed up with those super diet books and the recent crop of "Great Style In Five Minutes" type books that assume we are all size zeros, have secret swiss bank accounts, or magical resale shops where people drop off their worn-once couture. This is a good real-world book with real world solutions for real world women and their body/style issues. The book is worth the investment...I figure I save ten times that amount over and

Great fashion tips!

My mom got me this book for my birthday because I love fashion and even though I'd like to think that I already know a lot about style, this book had some great fashion tips that I never even thought of! So this is a great gift for both those who would like a little fashion help and for those who already know a lot (like me!). And even though I'm not that into fitness, I was really inspired by the fitness portion of the book because it seemed so easy. I've already tried some of the excersizes and so far so good! Great book overall!

first book to marry fashion and fitness tips

I got this book from my aunt for christmas and the cool thing is - it kills 2 birds with 1 stone. you don't need to buy 2 books. And the authors talk simply and directly, I learned about a lot of fashion boo boos I was making because of the shape/size of my body. It helped me look at my closet differently.

Thank you Ashley!!!

I just wanted to suggest this read for anyone who struggles with all the conflicting diet/fitness information out there. Ashley breaks things down in the most simplistic and least intimidating manner. I've been following her lead ever since I read this book -- and the results and ease of her program are so encouraging. The pictures are fun...her program and the language in which she breaks things down are so simple....anyone can make it happen for themselves... Thank you Ashley for all the tips and guidance! I'm hoping you'll make an exercise video for all of your readers soon!
