This is practical basis advice. The month to month guide is informative as is the direction on building a wardrobe.

Title in German:
Neues aus der Umkleidekabine

This book tells - peppered with humorous anecdotes - how to style yourself and look great regardless if you´re brown or blonde, thick or slim, going to an official dinner or to a children´s party. After reading this book you´re dressed perfectly for every occasion… in theory. In praxis I don´t follow her advices… that´s the crux of the matter.. I really don´t want to spend so much time with my wardrobe…

I like that Brenda talks a lot about how to be realistic about a wardrobe. She offers great advice and she is hilarious throughout her book.
