Find your inner style


The way a person dress asserts their identity, but with style, it creates a new story.

In her first book, Nina Garcia emphasises the importance of being one’s own personality rather than a fashion victim. Quotes from icons such as Sophia Loren, Coco Chanel and Katherine Hepburn are sprinkled throughout (even Albert Einstein gets a look in!). The Little Black Book of Style helps you to explore your own fashion voice—the piece of you that joyously revels in the glamorous experience of creating your best self. Nina Garcia also uses her influence to coax some well respected names such as Diane Von Furstenberg, Oscar De La Renta and Ralph Lauren to participate in question and answers on the last pages of the book. From cultivating good taste to guarding against definite fashion faux pas, Nina Garcia offers readers the ultimate guide to follow when it comes to dressing their best. Including tips on how and when to wear an outfit to what occasions are appropriate wear, advice on how to combine colors and textures, and inspiration on how to achieve your own signature look, you learn how to experiment, storyboard, archive, and play with fashion on your own sense.
In that way, style affords you opportunities to think about your appearance as a quality of your creative character.

The Little Black Book of Style by Nina Garcia is another style bible promising tips, advice and inspiration for women who have yet to find their sense of style. In her own words Nina Garcia aims to “awaken the fashion editor inside you and help you decide what image you want to convey to the world”
