2nd SKIN: How To Manage Your Clothes & Be Stylish For A Lifetime Paperback – 17 Sept. 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
You are in the right place. It is Sarah’s mission to elevate every woman’s mood and well-being just by opening her Wardrobe door.
Dressing well for a lifetime goes deeper than what can be seen on the surface. It’s a process that involves confidence, emotion, lifestyle, acceptance, budget, values, time, and crucially, the ability to develop a personal style.
The steps in this book will teach you that it is possible to move away from what feels like an exhausting cycle of trying to ‘find something to wear’. Instead, when you open your wardrobe door, you’ll be presented with a choice of ready-to-wear outfits at your fingertips. No more endless hours of trying on and discarding garment after garment.
The transformative power of clothes is real and is accessible to everyone, no matter your size, age or stage of life.
2nd SKIN unlocks this power and shows you how simple it is to achieve.
Written by personal style expert, wardrobe management extraordinaire, and founder of MYVOS® aka My Very Own Stylist, Sarah Tinks Cross - this book is brimming with practical solutions for real women.
It features a library of imagery and examples of daily outfits on real women, wearing clothes from their own wardrobes. The library of images includes UK Size 06-22, a height range of 5’-5’11, and the women are all aged 40+ with an array of body shapes that I describe as ‘human’.
A QR code gives access to an online page bringing to life the fabrics, fit and style in full colour and detail.
Chapters cover:
- Coming to terms with a changing body.
- Shifting focus from individual garments to head-to-toe outfit style.
- Mastering the art of maintaining a wardrobe that evolves with you.
- When to use ‘Style Formulas’ and how to find outfit inspiration.
- How to own clothes that always serve your current lifestyle.
The conclusion is a 5-step cycle. If adhered to, it will become an integral way to manage your clothes and space, and most importantly give you confidence knowing that you always have something stylish to wear.
