Style Yourself Giveaway! Ask The Coveted for Style Advice & Win a Book!

by jennine on July 13, 2011

style yourself

“How do you define your style?” Is the most dreaded question in my book. My metaphorical book. Luckily, Style Yourself: Inspired advice from the world’s top fashion bloggers asked 95 bloggers that question, coupled it with a few visual diagrams of what style actually is. Pages of collages about colors, textures, ideas of how to wear one thing several ways. Easy guides to the key items you need for the perfect wardrobe. I guess, it’s like a mega-blog post on  steroids putting together everything you need to know.

Believe it or not, I am one of the 95 bloggers… it was a lot of fun being part of the project, they looked at my blog in a way that I probably should more often, more putting things in a different context, like my obsession with red… who knew?

Sharing the book around the office, Nando commented, “I wish they had a super easy style guide like this for guys.” Maybe that’s the next book!

The Giveaway!

If you’d like to win a copy of this book, just leave a comment on this post asking a personal style question by Sunday, July 17th… I’ll pick the winner Monday and answer their question in the book. So if you want my style advice, ask me!

congrats jennine! i would looove a copy of this book & would probably get one anyway even if i don’t win! my style question is if/when DIYs become inappropriate. i’m kinda crafty & love to DIY stuff that gets sold out or i just can’t afford. since you work/associate with designers & with copyright issues, what’s your/their opinion on where should the line be drawn?

The book looks great, just read the (good) reviews on amazon!
My personal style question is how to wear a midi skirt or a maxi dress if you are only 5’1″?

I have a question to ask, I have an evening out tomorrow but it starts from 2pm in the day and finishes around 3am in the morning, what is a smart outfit to wear thats chic and on trend but is comfortable to wear for such a long time… I also kind of want to impress a boy too.

Well done Jennine!

Is this open to UK residents? If it is here’s my question:

What do you wear on the days when you open your wardrobe and feel really uninspired?!

It’s been happening to me so often recently, I feel like I look like a bag lady!

I’ve really enjoyed your reading your blog and seeing what the real world is wearing, but for those of us who are older and live in parts of the country that are fashion backwards…how can we update our look but not make too much of a statement?

Congratulations!
My question - what are the (1,3,5?) things every woman should invest her money in?

Should women with cellulite wear shorts? This is not a trick question. :) A lot of women want to be themselves, but also look stylish and feel confident.

Hey, congratulations Jennine!! I just discovered your blog, and it’s amazing!! My question is- I have a petite, thin, but pear shaped body… how do I best put together a two piece outfit that looks cute and doesn’t put an emphases on my little pear shape??

Kittenish July 17, 2011 at 10:41 pm

Congratulations!
My question: What can I wear to the office (including shoes) that isn’t boring but also isn’t flashy or inappropriate? It’s difficult to strike that needed balance.

Hello,
Here’s my question: I love shoes and have quite ok legs with a good shape but I have really large ankles. What kind of shoes should I privilege? I have had a tendency to hide them in boots till now but for summer it isn’t perfect
