About the Book:
The Color of Style
(Dutton, February 2010)
We are at our best when we feel comfortable, confident and at ease-when we know we look fantastic. That’s when we nail a presentation, land a job, snag a date, and click with friends-and yes, all of this can be influenced by color. There’s a secret to knowing what to wear and when to wear it so that you can maximize any opportunity, whether it’s in love, at work, or with family. The Color of Style will give you the key to harmonizing your wardrobe colors with what you wear every day: your very own body.
David Zyla’s system shows how to wear each of these colors-as an accent in a print, an accessory, or a solid, and solves the mystery of what color to wear to any life event, from formal to casual, from job interview to first date. The Color of Style will tell you what colors your winter coat should be, your spring sweaters, your summer dresses, your business suit and your black tie outfit (stay tuned, because it’s probably not black).
And if you’ve already made a few bad choices, The Color of Style will show you how to fix them without spending a dime. David Zyla’s mission is to show you how to color yourself with your own pop- from-the-pack brand and what colors to wear to attract love, enhance your power, restore your energy, make a lasting impression, and show the world who you really are.
