I have owned this book for over 30 years and still return to it whenever I feel like I want to update my look and more importantly to synch my inner and outer worlds. I read this book for the first time when I was 15 and ever since it has been my guide and go to for dressing in a way that reflects who I am at any given time. My spirit has evolved in many ways while parts have remained the same as well. For three decades I have created many different and beautiful wardrobes, all of them true to my spirit.

Strictly nostalgia for my early adulthood (downloaded e-book from Open Library). Jennifer Robin has said more recently that some parts of this thirty-year-old book, especially describing herself, make her cringe. Actually I thought it was still pretty good, especially the bits about letting go of clothes overload: she foreshadowed a lot of the current advice about curating wardrobes. This was a fun re-visit.
