"God wants you to know that you are beautiful exactly as you are. You may be a size 6, a size 16, or a size 26...Whatever your size, you are in the body God gave you...and it is good."
What an encouraging message! In this excellent book, Braendel, a Christian image consultant, shows women how to reflect their inner beauty through their outward appearance.
In a friendly, girl-next-door tone, Braendel offers advice on everything from applying makeup to choosing the perfect pair of jeans. Dozens of color photographs of real, non-airbrushed women modeling attractive hairstyles, clothing styles, and even swimsuits will help women practically apply the book's suggestions to their body shape and personal preferences.
This outstanding title deserves a place on every woman's bookshelf. Realistic, informative, and uplifting, it will boost reader's self-image and encourage them to look their best. Because of its niche topic, this book could easily get lost on your shelves; consider spotlighting it with a special display.

“If you’ve ever stood in your closet in tears because you simply had no clue what to wear, this is the book for you. If you’ve ever headed off to the store only to be completely overwhelmed, this is the book for you. If you’re tired of feeling frumpy, dumpy, and out of style, this is the book for you. All these things used to be true for me before I applied the truths found in Shari’s book. She will help you look great by maximizing your good features and minimizing your less-than-favorite ones, and you’ll save money by only buying clothes you’ll feel confidently fantastic wearing. Every woman should have this invaluable resource!”
