The Grown-Up Girl's Guide to Style: A Maintenance Bible for Fashion, Beauty, and More . . . 
Turning forty, fifty, or sixty is not about getting older, it's about becoming ageless . . .
Renowned style expert and fashion consultant Christine Schwab sees aging as an opportunity to revitalize your style and enliven your attitude. In her frank, opinionated, and provocative style, she writes the book that defies many of the fashion and beauty industry philosophies.
Now more than ever, women have the ability to look and feel fresh, chic, and fabulous at any age, simply by understanding age maintenance. Schwab is adamant that with all this new ageless information and technology, it is imperative to be informed about what works and what does not..
In this honest and empowering book, she offers the first open-minded approach to style, beauty, health, and well-being that will help every forty-plus woman achieve a classic look while maintaining her edge and personality.
A personal stylist and support group within a book, The Grown-Up Girl's Guide to Style addresses every aspect of aging, from hair and makeup to sex and family life. Straightforward and candid, Schwab even embraces once taboo subjects, offering the lowdown from leading doctors and surgeons on injectable skin treatments, cosmetic surgery and dentistry, and hormone replace-ment therapy. Accompanying her eye-opening advice are dozens of fun, revealing photographs—including celebrity profiles, woman-on-the-street snapshots, stunning professional photography, and even personal photographs of Schwab herself—that demonstrate style disasters (sleeveless tops, head-to-toe denim, and more), and dazzling triumphs.
The Grown-Up Girl's Guide to Style holds the ultimate insider's secrets to a beautiful, sexy, and healthy life after forty. An essential book for the modern "grown-up girl," it is sure to dramatically rejuvenate the already-stylish, the aspiring-to-be-stylish, and the simply style-challenged woman in her prime.
Reviews
It is rare that another woman can be this open about what looks good on us mature gals. Living in Los Angeles - a youth obessed town and culture that leads so often to paranoia about self image as soon as you turn twenty five let alone fifty. I was thrilled to read this book and feel reassured that my beauty is only improving with age and how to show that.
I laughed, cried and smiled at the photos and (shame) have to admit to some mistakes myself - but no more - I will be sending this to my mum, sister and keeping a box of extras in my car to throw at women in the street who are still hanging on to their teens instead of embracing their warm, sexy, hot mama later years.
Like the French say;
A beautiful woman is like a good bottle of port - she gets better with age!
Thank you Ms Schwab.
