This book review should come as no surprise to those who follow me on Instagram. I got through this entire book during my California/Arizona trip. I've been following We Wore What for years now, but truthfully I never knew the person behind the account. I just liked her photos. I saw other influencers that I follow raving about this book so I decided to get it because it seemed like a light read, perfect for a beach trip. "This Is Not A Fashion Story" was more than just a "light read." At lets for me. I know it sounds odd, but this book was life changing for me. It made me thinking about blogging and fashion in a whole new way and inspired me to do more with my own blog. The way Danielle speaks (or writes I should say) is so authentic and witty and just makes you go, "Ah, that makes sense. Why didn't I think of that?" I can't recommend this book enough, especially if you have a passion for writing and fashion.
What is the book about?
Danielle Bernstein is a fashion blogger, designer and now bestselling author. She started We Wore What after dropping out of college and diving head first into fashion. It's literally, NOT a fashion story, but rather a story about a fashionista. It's a little about her past, how she found her love for fashion, her college years, her heartbreaks, her business and everything in between. She holds nothing back in this book (the first chapter starts with a sex scene so yeah, it's a bit of a tell-all). She shares her mistakes and lessons learned but also her secrets as to how she turned her hobby into a million dollar company.
Who would enjoy this book?
There are a lot of different groups of people who would enjoy this book. If you're a fan of We Wore What or Danielle, you will hear her tone of voice on every page. If you're into blogging and fashion, this book will resonate with you. If you're looking to give your business a boost then you will connect with this book and get a new perspective on how to do things.
Why did I want to read this book?
As I mentioned before, I knew of We Wore What but didn't know who was behind the blog or Instagram page. When I saw so many other influencers raving about this book it made me want to read it. Plus it's a book about fashion in New York City–say no more.
What’s the tone of voice of this book?
Danielle's voice is very witty and sarcastic, but in a fun way. Her stories are so intriguing and makes you want to keep reading. You find yourself wanting more to the story just to keep reading more about her life. I'm super excited for her next book!
Favorite part of this book?
Right away the first chapter opens up wit a sex scene and I was hooked. Her story of how she started her book is the most interesting to me because she describes her travel day to Los Angeles and how she simply just started writing. It was very inspiring and motivating all at once.
I definitely recommend reading this book especially if you love just an authentic story about how someone turned a hobby into a million-dollar business. You won't be disappointed. Purchase "This Is Not A Fashion Story" by Danielle Bernstein by clicking the link here.
