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.

Awesome read for women who want to 'update' their fashion ideas. A must for anyone over 45. Fun, informative, interesting and helpful. Delivery right on time.
fantastic book July 31, 2008
The book is wonderful! Very informative. It helped me choose my body type as well as think when shopping about the rules.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was interesting, witty, and well written. I enjoyed it very much even though it did contain much information I had read before in other sources, and it was aimed toward women of middle age, and I am way-way-way past middle age. Another plus--the book arrived promptly.
Definitely worth the price! July 17, 2008

I have been having so much fun with this book! I especially appreciate the very specific tools he presents here for determining your body type, proportions, and what clothing types are most flattering to you, rather than vague generalities found in many other style/beauty books. Mr. Hopkins' approach is not so much to teach you to hide signs of aging or try to hide your age, but to look your best at your true age, and emphasize your best features, which even those of us who are 45 and over still have, darn it! This is an important distinction, in my opinion, and sets his book apart from others aimed at older women, particularly Ms. Krupp's "How Not To Look Old" , which just comes across as desperate to me. Leg makeup and botox? No thanks!
Since I bought this book, I've purged my cosmetics drawer and my closet, gotten professional advice on a new skin care regimen and makeup application, and am looking for a new hair stylist.
I do agree with another poster who said that tailoring some of the fashion advice to specific body types would be helpful if there are future editions/updates. Overall, there is no other beauty/style book out there like this one, and I heartily recommend it.
