Reviewed by Anne Boling for ReviewYourBook.com, 5/08
Who are you? What is your style? What two words best describe the authentic you? I guess I am nobody, because I never did find my style. Style Statement has a lot of potential, but it fell short of reaching it. The layout is confusing. I suppose my style is redneck and country. Carrie McCathry and Danielle LaPorte speak with great authority. I have no doubt that they know their topic well. Their book has a sophisticated aurora to it.
a must read: carrie and danielle's new style statement April 30, 2008

some of you will remember that one of my "entering the thirties" celebrations was to treat myself to a style statement session with danielle laporte, of carrie&danielle, two fabulous ladies i refer to often on the site. well, the sad thing about people having a great idea is that it tends to get found out and more expensive. while i was able to get a consultation at a discounted $450 last august due to a deal for domino magazine readers, their incredible explosion onto the scene has moved their personal consult fee up to $2000 canadian dollars. wow. (and yay for them- i am dreaming for that day in my own career).
what to do for those who just can't shell out that much? (or those for whom $450, paid in monthly installments like i did was even a stretch.)
read the book. seriously. you will get so much out of just the book.
i had been excited about this book for a long time, partially because i love books, but also because i have wanted to have a way to send my own clients to a resource for the style statement experience. and at twenty-five dollars, this seems quite a reasonable recommendation.
the book is lush, weighty in a nice way, and beautifully laid out. case studies and their simple and direct language make reading the book a little retreat in itself. it seems to be the one that gets pulled off the coffee table the most often with cries of "ooo. what is this?"
the opportunity to crystallize your preferences and style is about much more than just fashion, as they make quite clear. having a sense of style includes values, both visual and otherwise. i have found that knowing i am "creative refinement" helps me orient in a world that has increasingly too many choices not to be overwhelming. having a little question to ask, "does this fit?", helps me find myself on a little raft that ensures i will be happy with whatever purchase or choice i have made.
so- don't wait. it's out and available now. make it your next indulgent read. i promise you will be much the richer for it.
So inspiring! April 29, 2008

Wow, this was an amazing book! It helps you find your two defining words that describes your authentic self. A great concept for tapping into your own identity. It was extremely clarifying for me and gave me great tools to use in my own life. I've recommended it to a ton of friends and they have loved it, too. A must read! Bravo to Carrie and Danielle!
