It’s hard to believe it’s already February but, so far I’ve made good on my “book of the month” resolution (here). I finished “How to Look Expensive” by Andrea Pomerantz Lustig and in a nutshell is was great! For anyone who loves beauty, fashion, and just looking good in general, this is the book for you!

Honestly, I don’t want to say too much about the book because you should really go buy it and read it yourself but, here are a few things I love about the book:

• Readable. Andrea writes in a way that you can understand. Basically she “dumbs” it down so that anyone (cough, cough..me…cough) can read this book, understand what she’s saying, and put into practice her tips!
• Favorites. She gives us her favorites, both high-end or drugstore. It’s nice to know that Andrea recognizes that not everyone can go to the Nordstrom counter for every beauty purchase (although we wish we could…).
• Experts. Andrea shares tips she’s picked up along the way but, she also brings in the experts to write small portions.
• Beauty References and Resources. At the end of the book Andrea leaves us a list of references, some I heard of before the book and some are my new favorites.

Ok, hopefully I haven’t given away too much and I’ve inspired you to pick up her book ASAP.
