Some Freeman Words
Its basic structure is an A-Z of fashion, A guide to (almost) all things fashionable, which of course is not meant to be taken literally. The target readership of this book really sort of dictates why the book was written in the first place. Freeman tries to explain the myths and the oddities about fashion, defending it from the very beginning with a conclusion that despite all the ridiculous elements of fashion, it is essentially still fabulous and somewhat of a necessity. Meaning, this isn't a book for those who are in love with fashion but for those who wish to be enlightened and can then make their own opinion about all things fash. However, the A-Z also comprises mostly of certain do's and don'ts subjects which I can't really rave about. Positivity is not abound as Freeman casts ... Its basic structure is an A-Z of fashion, A guide to (almost) all things fashionable, which of course is not meant to be taken literally. The target readership of this book really sort of dictates why the book was written in the first place. Freeman tries to explain the myths and the oddities about fashion, defending it from the very beginning with a conclusion that despite all the ridiculous elements of fashion, it is essentially still fabulous and somewhat of a necessity. Meaning, this isn't a book for those who are in love with fashion but for those who wish to be enlightened and can then make their own opinion about all things fash. However, the A-Z also comprises mostly of certain do's and don'ts subjects which I can't really rave about. Positivity is not abound as Freeman casts a critical opinion on coloured tights, the colour pink and vintage rummaging, all things that I love dearly to different degrees. Of course, it's all a subjective thing as she is equally menacing about wearing fur, logos and exercise clothes as daywear, all things that I personally am not keen on either. So of course, nobody is going to agree with Ms. Freeman all the way and I doubt her point is to enforce her musings upon you. It's only when she lectures on the do's and don'ts of how to wear ruffles, what jeans to pick and what sort of party dress you should be investing in is when I start snoozing off. Trinny and Susannah, she is not, and because the ultimate conclusion of the book is that fashion should not be taken uber seriously, it seems somewhat incongruous when I have to read about what is a ballet shoe toe should be exactly shaped like. Her mild obsession with Prada, Marc Jacobs, Chanel and Chloe (four designers she mentions constantly throughout the book with little other designer references) can also be a little irritating. That was a long 'However...' paragraph which I hope is not a determent to people buying the book because it is when all is said and done a REALLY entertaining read that may educate a little but most of all, make you laught out loud because Freeman's writing is so intensely jovial and sarcastic all at the same time. She works in fashion but she is truthful about everything and doesn't hold anything back and the book I think might make some people who in the industry lower their heads and blush a little. In any case, it took up half a week's worth of commuting for me which means it is a bit of an addictive read and you end up taking away little quotes that make you chuckle silently. Always good to scare people whilst laughing quietly to yourself about something only known to you. Style Bubble

I was looking forward to this book and learning all about the "meaning" of accessories. I couldn't even finish this book because I was so disappointed. I felt the writing was so sloppy and casual. It's like someone pasted all their blog posting in a book and published it. If there was no internet this book would be charming and cute. This style of fashion writing, in book form, feels antiquated and obsolete.I was looking forward to this book and learning all about the "meaning" of accessories.
