Summary |
"Media saturation can make girls and YA women question their natural beauty and feel poorly about themselves. This book helps girls work in a positive way to understand their body types and to create figure-flattering styles that also build self-esteem and confidence. Through a self-affirming approach, the style consultant author helps readers strengthen their media literacy by busting media myths about beauty; offers helpful, easy-to-implement proven ideas about color, shape, fabrics, balance, and other fashion-building tools; discusses thrift shopping and other affordable ways to shape and build a wardrobe; and supports young women in feeling good about themselves and their fashion choices."--Provided by Publisher. |
