Any good personal style books you can recommend?

I stopped buying glossy magazines a few years ago as I got fed up of page after page of beautiful adverts of stuff I could never afford. Instead I'll buy a personal style related book now and then - any recommendations?

I've just ordered " Secrets of a Fashion Therapist : What you can learn behind the dressing room door " by Betty Halbreich after watching " Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorfs. Can't wait Smile

I enjoyed " That extra half inch " by Victoria Beckham and also " Style A to Zoe" by Rachel Zoe.

I was disappointed with Gok Wan and Trinny & Susannah but they are probably a bit out of date now anyway.

I can't resist books on style, I have far too many.

ooh ooh I hadn't heard of the Betty Halbreich one - will have to take a look - Thanks!
Yes Trinny and Susannah are dated and I don't like Gok Wans style - he seems to put everyone in a massive belt with a neck scarf air hostess style!

Thanks JackieO -- I just reserved the books you recommended from the library.
