19. Further Reading
I would know nothing about style without reading the books and websites below. The
authors have gone in depth about what looks good and what doesn’t and I owe every-
thing I know to them. Everything below is highly recommended:
1. What Not to Wear by Trinny and Susannah
This was the first book I read on how to dress better, and my wardrobe is better for it.
Trinny and Susannah have divided each page and its opposite to what looks bad vs.
what looks good, and each picture tells way more than a thousand words. If there’s
only one book you read on style, this would be it.
2. The Pocket Stylist by Kendall Farr
Ms. Farr is a professional stylist with years of experience. This is an encyclopedia of
style that details everything you need to know about looking great.
3. Ask Andy About Clothes

Ironically an eBook about women’s wear has a color section that is mostly based on this
website above. This site goes IN DEPTH about color.
