Tim Gunn Fan Club

Did you watch the premier of Tim Gunn's Guide to Style on Bravo last night? Honestly, the show itself isn't anything ground breaking. It's a fashion makeover show. What's so great about it is what Tim Gunn himself brings to the table. Who else can say "I'm feeling woeful" and not sound... well, weird?

What I admire about Tim Gunn, on this show and Project Runway, is his ability to offer critique and criticism without being judgmental. He makes it about the clothing and not the person. And he does it with grace and charm.

Being a member of the Tim Gunn Fan Club, I picked up his book soon after it came out. Again, it's not ground breaking material. But it's written from the Tim Gunn perspective, where there's grace and beauty but practicality as well. The whole point of the book is to choose a style that suits you so that shopping becomes less about defining yourself through clothes and more about finding pieces that reflect who you already are.

I've always been looking for a book, or a magazine, or a TV show to tell me "This is how you dress" and just be done with it. But the truth is that no one person can decide that for you. All we have are guides, like Tim Gunn, to offer tips and some logical advice. The rest is up to you.
