Thanks to everyone to entered!

closet-confidential-book

If you read our last post, you’re now as crazy about Winona of the fab blog Daddy Likey as we are. She is an inspired writer with the fashion know-how of a true professional. Want a piece of her amazingness? If you just yelled YES! (which we assumed you did), you’ll be ecstatic to hear that we’re giving away FIVE copies of her book Closet Confidential: Style Secrets Learned the Hard Way.

About the book:

“With the economy in a nosedive, more women than ever are looking for ways to achieve haute couture without the hefty price tag. 50 Style Lessons Learned the Hard Way shows how. Author Winona Dimeo-Ediger mixes self-deprecating wit, fashion smarts, and bargain-bin savvy to help women become divas on a dime. She divides the book into 12 handy chapters covering everything from shopping for jeans (while retaining one-third of one’s self-esteem and half of one’s paycheck) to hiding love handles to the ever-elusive “looking good while jogging.” 50 Style Lessons also contains hilarious and useful charts, graphs, and math equations, including Maslow’s Hierarchy of Jeans, the handy Clip-out Guide to Wine and Hosiery, and the little-known Law of Calculus (the likelihood of a man noticing your outfit is inversely related to how much you want a man to notice your outfit).”

__________
