 Finally some Inspiration! August 25, 2008
My recently separated (;-()sister (54) bought this book to help her to build up her self-esteem and loaned it to me while I was visiting. She and I have decided to stage our "comeback" with a November 1st target date - also my son's wedding. Of course we won't overshadow the bride, but we're going to look and feel our very best just the same.
I was a little skeptical about another "Oprah-star" book, but I was hooked soon after cracking the spine. I agree with some of the other reviewers; more pictures of the make-over women in other outfits (both business and casual), some more shoulder-length hair styles (not everyone likes or wants short hair), more guidance on make-up types (creams, powders, liquids) and their usage/application.
I plan to buy my own copy and have some fun consulting with my sister over the next couple of months. It will be a nice re-bonding experience. Thanks!
Great Comeback! August 21, 2008
Christopher Hopkins does a marvelous job here, showing you how to play up your strengths, while gently poking fun at the ways we can dress to look older. Seeing the makeovers in the book will convince you, giving up the old haircut and makeup that feel so safe, can make you look (and feel) so much younger! He teaches you how to determine and dress for your body type, so you can look great with what you have, unlike much fashion advice that is geared to make a 21 year old look great. This book convinced me I could still be pretty and feminine over 45, without the mutton dressed as lamb effect. I took away from this book practical advice I can use, as well as a different outlook on my age. Older doesn't have to mean frumpy or plain. Thank you Christopher!

Staging Your Comeback: Beauty Revival for Women Over 45; Christopher Hopkins.
I thought this book was very well done, and had some great before and after pictures for all body types (could have been better with more photos). The women featured looked wonderful after the makeovers, but the clothing selections could have been improved. Great tips on choosing the right clothing styles, hair styles, makeup etc.
If as a 45++ woman, looking your best is important to you, I would recommend this book.
