giveaway! nina garcia's "what to wear for every occasion look book"

Friday, August 27, 2010

Trust Your Style was thrilled when Marie Claire fashion director and Project Runway judge Nina Garcia dropped by recently to discuss fashion, style, satorial spying and more {Click here to read Nina's interview}. As thoughts turn to fall, I couldn't think of a better time to offer a lucky tys reader a copy of Nina's new book!

9781401341473


Not only is this book a visual pleasure, filled with pages upon pages of Ruben Toledo illustrations, but it has all sorts of great style advice--everything from how to dress when asking for a raise to the eternal style questions such as what to wear to a black tie wedding. If you've ever pondered what to pack for a weekend in the Hamptons or wear to a bris, how to look great on casual Friday, or shine for parent-teacher meetings, then this book is for you! There's even something for wanderlust travelers--have you ever considered what you'd wear when visiting the Taj Mahal or on a walk in the gardens of Kyoto?

To enter the giveaway please leave a comment about why you'd like to read Nina Garcia's Look Book. You can win a second entry by following TrustYourStyle on twitter (sorry this is for new twitter followers only). The winner will be announced on Monday!

Good luck and have a happy end-of-summer weekend!

I'd love to read this book. I'm constantly trying to educate myself on style, to further understand my subconscious High WASP leanings, and broaden my tastes. I'd also like to review the book on Privilege. It's just the kind of thing the Privilege[d] would like:). Thanks Mary Jo for hosting.

Okay, so this Giveaway seriously just made my day! There are numerous reasons why I want to read this book:

1) The illustrations are the cutest thing ever!

2) Nina Garcia is a goddess, and anything with her name on it is perfection!

3) A survival guide for the fashion world is something that no girl should be forced to live without!! :P

Great giveaway, Mary Jo! Nina is so knowledgeable about style...I can benefit from her advice! I would love to read this because, while I'm happy with my day-to-day style, I am awful when it comes to dressing up more formally. Plain awful. I can use a little direction with this!

I LOVE Nina Garcia's books. Super excited to read this one. Our library has one copy of each of her previous books. There is ALWAYS a long waiting list for her books - and I put my name on the list every time. I sign out the book...and even keep it and pay the overdue fines [to keep the books for an extra few days] ...then return it ...and put my name on the waiting list again.

Can't get enough Nina Garcia.
