Brenda Kinsel's Fashion Makeover: 30 Days to Diva Style!    by Brenda Kinsel Order:  USA  Can Chronicle, 2007 (2007) Softcover      Reviewed by Belle Dessler If looking your best every day was as easy as rolling out of bed and throwing on an old pair of sweats, cosmetics and fashion companies everywhere would be out of business. Since it's not that effortless, many women struggle with the daily battle between staying true to themselves and making the most out of what nature gave them. With a little help from image consultant Brenda Kinsel, that battle just got a whole lot easier. Brenda Kinsel's Fashion Makeover is a thirty day plan guaranteed to help with clothes, hair, makeup and everything in between. Unlike many books of its kind, Brenda Kinsel's Fashion Makeover is aimed at women over forty. As Kinsel tells us in her frank, no-nonsense tone, 'If you've been in a fashion slumber for years and have let yourself go, chances are you're looking older than your years. In a word, dowdy.' Ouch. That's the kind of tough love you can expect from Kinsel throughout the entire book, but she delivers each bit of advice with years of expertise to back it up. The best part is that Brenda Kinsel's Fashion Makeover isn't just for women over forty. It's also for younger women who have never paid much attention to fashion and have therefore never learned what looks best on them. Women who are so busy being wives, mothers and all-around caretakers that they've never had time for themselves. Kinsel makes it easy to break down the seemingly insurmountable task of reinventing yourself. With step-by-step instructions, words of wisdom from industry experts, anecdotes from other women who have traveled this path and a wealth of reusable information, following Brenda Kinsel's Fashion Makeover plan is a breeze. There's no better time to discover the diva inside you than right after the holidays, so let this book be your gift to yourself. And if turning heads isn't reward enough, in thirty days you'll be telling your own success story and inspiring other women to look great every day.
