I have been reading this book in a book club, which I would recommend. I first became enamored with Provence after reading Peter Mayel's book. But I have to tell you, there really isn't a lot of fun in throwing guys out of helicopters.. The chapters are incredibly long and are not organized in a way that is conducive to fully understanding the concepts. Exercise also reduces stress levels (p.191). I love it and you will too..

Writers, activists, and artists including Cindy Sherman, Kim Gordon, Kalpona Akter, Sarah Nicole Prickett, Tavi Gevinson, Miranda July, Roxane Gay, Lena Dunham, and Molly Ringwald answered these questions with photographs, interviews, personal testimonies, and illustrations.Even our most basic clothing choices can give us confidence, show the connection between our appearance and our habits of mind, express our values and our politics, bond us with our friends, or function as armor or disguise.

A uniquely kaleidoscopic and spirited approach to an irresistible subject of universal resonance.”—Booklist“This is the wisdom of the crowd, and while it's not authoritative or prescriptive, it's reassuring and fun.”—Associated Press“This charming patchwork expands the scope of fashion writing by looking not at forerunners of style but at how those outside the industry think about what they wear….The range of women involved is dazzling…a welcome addition to writing that often focuses on a single trend for all.”—Madeleine Schwartz, The Boston Globe“A thoughtful, droll, and often moving tome…Women in Clothes is the pulchritudinous addendum to Mr. ‘What do I want to express?’ Those questions inform the multitude of eclectic responses gathered in this delightfully idiosyncratic book.”—Kirkus  “Thoughtfully crafted and visually entertaining, this collection, edited by Heti,
