I know, this giveaway was suppose to be posted yesterday, but we are are all sick with colds here and every time I tried to do work yesterday baby just wanted to nurse and be held. It’s hard to get much work done typing with one hand.

We are excited to announce that StartupNation has selected Carol Tuttle’s Dressing Your Truth, Discover Your Personal Beauty Profile as one of the top mom-owned businesses in America! Dressing Your Truth was voted in as #11 out of the 200 winners (and thousands of entrants!), and Carol is thrilled to be recognized.

Before launching her own company in 1994, Carol Tuttle struggled for years with depression, low-self esteem, and a negative body image before finding answers in alternative wellness practices. Determined to help other women overcome their self-esteem issues, Carol self-published three books, including “Dressing Your Truth.” The Dressing Your Truth brand was founded in 2003, and is now a multi-million dollar family-run business. Carol’s husband, children, and their spouses work full-time for the company, which teaches women to be their own beauty and fashion experts through the book and a state-of-the-art website, DressingYourTruth.com. Today, thousands of women all over the world have learned to dress (and live) their truth!

My Review:

Dressing Your Truth by Carol Tuttle was an enlightening book that all women need to read, whether they are a fashionista or not. Carol focuses on helping women (and men) discover their own personal beauty profile. Once women indicate which type of beauty profile they are – there are four types – they are free to dress their real truth.

As much as the fashion world dictates what women should wear, there are misconceptions and myths that all women believe. Carol debunks those myths and provides women a way to dress comfortably and attractively based on beauty profiling results. From the testimonies shared, most women seem to be very happy with the results.

The beauty profiling is Carol’s trademark (literally) and she offers women simple beauty and fashion assessments through her center for Living Your Truth, her Dressing Your Truth course and this book.

I loved her 10 great rules listed on page 217, like Listen to your body, Love it or leave it, and I laughed at the husband rule: “Only take your husband or boyfriend or whoever shopping if he/she supports you and has fun. Otherwise, leave him at home!” I don’t know about your husband, but mine doesn’t care for shopping. Oh he’s great at helping with the grocery shopping or helping me with our crew when we are all shopping together, but when it comes to down to it he knows what he wants and is in and out in minutes. Whereas, I take much longer with my browsing and indecision.

“Fashion trends and styles are designed to honor the clothing not the woman.” (page 27) This statement stood out to me and I never really thought about it before, but it’s so true and it’s rather liberating to know that when I can’t find something that I like on me, it isn’t necessarily me, but the clothing.

I enjoyed reading about Carol’s book and think she’s onto something very significant, yet with all things, I still have my skepticism too. However, that won’t stop me from recommending her book because who knows how much it will help some of you.
