Drawing on astrology, feng shui and psychology, this mystical guide shows how fashion with intention can be a powerful and life-affirming practice. Now I must mention that this is not a traditional style guide in any sense of the word. It discusses moon signs, horoscopes, rituals, fashion spells, crystals and mystical concepts of that nature and relates them all to fashion (which is why I thought this would be a perfect giveaway for the month of October!).
So while some of the concepts in this book aren't for everyone, if you are interested in metaphysics, you'll certainly gleam joy and insight from it. I also find that this book is substantial enough that you can easily absorb what interests you (I'm a cancer and really enjoyed reading about how fashion relates to my water sign) and leave what doesn't pertain to your lifestyle or beliefs.
Here is what Publishers Weekly had to say about Magical Fashionista:
"In this satisfying and unusual style guide...Whitehurst examines the metaphysics of fashion and its potential as a personal art project...Though Whitehurst instructs readers to "stand like a celebrity" and "walk like a supermodel," it's obvious that readers are meant to think of themselves on the same playing field, not as inferior beings...sure to be welcomed by the open-minded fashion lover."
This giveaway is open to US residents only. Please enter via rafflecopter below. I will announce the winner on the rafflecopter widget one week from today. Good luck!

Passing this along - Thank You! Good Luck to everyone! :)
Thank you for the terrific give-away! If I had to describe my style of dressing I would have to say that I like to wear clothing that isn't trendy, just classic/timeless.
My fashion philosophy is high-quality, low-key classic dress with touches of endearing elements and / or glamour.
This book sounds really interesting! My fashion philosophy is anything goes! If you just have fun and put together outfits creatively and artfully, you will always be wearing something that makes you feel happy.
My style of dressing is definitely stay at home mommy friendly with a classic style.
My fashion philosophy is "dress good, feel good, do good"- if you feel good, you put yourself in the mindset to do good around you!
This book looks like a fun read. Life's a party dress like it. Lilly Pulitzer

Thanks for this give away- looks like a good book. My fashion philosophy is classic, dressy and comfortable; In that order.
My fashion philosophy is eclectic. I tend to wear what I love, and what I know looks good on me regardless of trend!
Interesting take on crafting one's style. Very interested to learn more!
I like to take a style icon and ask myself: Would Audrey wear this? Would Zooey wear this? Would Duchess Kate wear this? My icons rotate, but it's something to aspire to.
My philosophy on fashion is: simple is best! I'd love to win a copy of this book. It sounds amazing and interesting.
ANETTE- I do not set the guidelines for the giveaways. The guidelines are set by the company (or in this case publishers) who are hosting the giveaway. I always ask if the giveaway is open worldwide and they usually say US (or sometimes US and Canada) only.
My style is classic with a bit of color and whimsy....it makes dressing so much easier.
Thank you for the giveaway!
Warmly, Kathleen

I'm currently working on my style. I have recently found you and am reading your book. I'm excited to find my style. Thanks for a great giveaway.
Sounds great fun - loved Magical Housekeeping but not as much as I loved Lessons from Madame Chic!

My fashion philosophy is confused right now. I have a new home in a new state and a new smaller body. My old clothes just aren't me anymore and I'm not sure where to go from here.
I won't wear it unless *I* think I look good in it, no matter what anyone else thinks! :)
