Default book - "How not to Look Fat"

I bought this book yesterday, "How Not to Look Fat" by Danica Lo.
It's about how to buy clothes to make your more flattering. Has anyone read this? Have you gone out shopping and went by her rules? If so, did the shopping trip go pretty well, or was it hard to find anything that went by her rules?
I'm going shopping on Sunday, so I'm thinking positive

If clothes made me not look fat then it'd be a miracle

I do agree that clothing can help you look better. I used to watch "what not to wear" for a lot of good tips.

Default Update

The shopping trip went very well. I took the book with me as a reference and actually found plenty of clothes that fit within the rules. I just got tops and some shoes, so I have no idea about getting pants.
Hubby says the clothes really do make me look skinnier, but that's what he's supposed to say anyways.

If you have ever watched Not What to Where, you'll see that the right clothes can make a difference. So I'm sure the book you have has a point about dressing slender.
