More from Stacy London

I picked up Stacy London's The Truth about Style book again today and was reminded of her down- to-earth advice and her wise insights into style.

Here she is writing about her make-over with a survivor of breast cancer but her advice is for everyone:

"Style is the first thing to do when we're sick. But when you're ready, you can use style to feel better on the road to recovery as a part of recovery.  Style is a source of strength when you feel weak. "

During her work with another client who is risk-adverse, she advises:

"The less fear we have of failing, the more open we are to the possibilities of the unknown. Style is a great way to practice taking chances. With style, you can easily flirt with failure. You start again with a clean slate every single morning."

It's useful to re-read books from my Wardrobe Wisdom library; I become inspired to dress my best everyday, and to help others do the same.
