Start the Year Off Right!

Happy New Year Everyone!  I have to admit that due to the full time job, family, and social life I have been a bad blogger.  Well it's time to embrace the New Year and I promise to be better!  In addition to kicking off the year by setting my top resolutions I also read an absolutely fabulous book recently released that EVERYONE must own:


Eric Daman is the Costume Designer behind the hit series Gossip Girl and Creative Consultant for Charlotte Russe.  This book symbolizes everything that agirl2shop4u is about.  Fashion is about fit, inspiration, and how you feel and Eric demonstrates that you can be fashionable without spending the big bucks!!!

Here are my Top 10 reasons that you need to run to your local book store and get this book right away:

#1: The book is a master piece!  Colorful, beautiful, and full of INSPIRATION!
2. Leighton Meester's Foreword was so genuine it gave me goose bumps (no joke)
3. Shopping for jeans?  IGNORE THE SIZE--"More important than the number on the tag is how your potential denim soul mate actually fits"--Eric Daman (Smart Man)
4. Read about Investment Pieces v. "Trendy Fillers"--see if you can guess who paid more...
5.  Anyone who recommends Fruit of the Loom t-shirts for a basic tee buy is a genius in my eyes!
6. I heart the helpful "411's".  Read them.  They are great!
7. Find out what your fashion color palette is: "Think of yourself as the canvas and paint with your clothes, covering yourself in beautifully arranged colors that frame your face."--Eric Daman.
8. Chapter 8: Rule Breakers.  See how to wear the same piece regardless of what season it is.
9. This book will EXCEED your expectations with tips on tailoring, how to reorganize your closet, what belongs in your own personal styling kit, and much, much more.
10. "If you wish, create a different character every day. Your style should be fluid"--Eric Daman.  I LOVE IT!!!

Start your year off right!  Get EXCITED about fashion! 

From one fashion enthusiast to another don't forget everyday is a new adventure--Dress like it!
