The Everyday Supermodel: My Beauty, Fashion, and Wellness Secrets Made Simple

AWESOME!
I have to be honest, I initially ordered this book as a gift for my wife for Valentine's Day as a joke, because we were big fans of the "Las Vegas" TV show Molly Sims was on. It was a running joke in our house that Molly was at the top of my "Hall Pass List". (My wife gets Ryan Gosling) Anyway, what a cute and funny gift I thought. But, as I was about to wrap it up, I skimmed through it a little. Before I knew it, an hour went by. It was so full of great tips and tricks. Not just hair, make-up, and girlie stuff, but interesting food choices too. Molly Sims absolutely knows a ton of stuff! I knew my little bride would love this book so much, that I couldn't even wait for Valentine's. I gave it to my her that same day. In the few days since, she hasn't let it out of her sight for more than a couple minutes. It's become her bible. Guys, if you want to give your girl a cool present, get this book. But before you give it to her, check out the all the gorgeous pix of Molly inside!

Fantastic Compilation of Advice--Way to Go Molly!
I received this book yesterday (big thanks to Amazon's pre-order system) and almost read it cover to cover in one sitting. I've loved Molly Sims for years; she just seems so down-to-earth. When I heard that she was writing a beauty/lifestyle book I knew I would have to buy it because my friends that live in L.A. swear that she is the only celebrity that is as beautiful in person as she is on TV or in print. And the book did not disappoint! She includes not only beauty and skincare advice, but also style, nutrition, exercise, and even life-coaching advice. Molly also solicits her gurus for their recipes, workouts, style tips, beauty tips, etc., which I think gives you more bang for your buck (can't beat dozens of experts in one book). Finally, I also really appreciated that Molly includes nutrition, exercise, and style advice for expectant moms. As someone just starting the "trying to get pregnant" journey, I really appreciated that (unexpected) aspect of the book. In fact, I'm going to Whole Foods tonight to stock up on the ingredients for her fertility smoothie. All in all, I think this is a wonderful book--and I don't often buy celebrities' books. Great job, Molly!

Well worth the read. Molly gives us the DETAILS people!
This book was well-worth the read. I am a busy, 30-something corporate finance drone, and this book managed to a) inspire me for the new year b) entertain me c) give me some really good tips and d) give me that nice "chat with a girlfriend" feel. I wouldn't normally order a book like this (way too fluffy!), but I follow Molly on instagram and I am a fan. Molly is very open about her struggles with dating, motherhood, weight, skin, beauty etc, and she gives DETAILS! I like knowing the brand of lipgloss, curling iron, eyeshadow, vitamins etc that a supermodel uses, and Molly gives the dirt. I am also planning to try the smoothie recipes she gives, and probably a workout routine too. The last chapter about going after your goals hit a chord with me as well--I actually found it pretty inspiring and it lifted me out of my winter funk. Note: In a world of pay for review schemes, I want to note that I ordered and bought this book. I am in no way being compensated for this review.

Fabulous book! Practical tips for everyday! Inspiring!
Well written book, summarizes tips from a supermodel that can be used everyday. I can notice hard work behind this book, molly sims tried to put together information that she gathered through her life as a supermodel and in a very honest way bring that information for everybody. She shares with the readers her life journey trying to inspire us to keep moving forward no matter what we are facing. After reading the book I became a fan of molly sims, she he’s very honest and truly inspiring!Life changing!

But the books seems to cover lots of good topics.
I guess I am just an ordinary person. I had a hard time imagining shopping the trends, and buying extremely high heels. But the book seems to cover lots of good topics. I am over age 50, so maybe I just chose a book more appropriate for teens through adults a bit younger than my age.I really enjoyed when Molly was frequently down to earth about herself before she became a professional model, and then a super model. She included pictures of herself as a younger, more ordinary person with unplucked eyebrows, and a few extra pounds, that she does not currently carry. I think she was trying to encourage her readers that it is possible to change in positive ways. I really enjoyed parts of the book like that.

Would love to see an entire book on just the food ...
I gobbled up this book as other reviewers did. Would love to see an entire book on just the food section (with more recipes, etc). I was/am desperate for a reasonable, sustainable program where I can feel healthy/lose weight, and this book fit the bill. There is so much information packed into it that I am still re-reading the first chapter after 2 weeks (each time I see something I missed). I am a magazine addict, but still I like that this book consolidates all the health/beauty info into one place. Thank you for sharing Molly!

I ordered this book because I follow Molly's blog and like her down-to-earth way of communicating and was intrigued by her teasers on her blog. On her blog she shares easy to make family-friendly recipes and beauty tips that a busy Mom of three can follow. I pre-ordered the book and got it yesterday and have read and re-read sections tabbing favorite topics. I've also ordered copies for my Mother-in-law and sister. Needless to say, I think the book is truly fantastic! The pictures keep you flipping pages and the tips I've already honed in on are great, particularly her tips for diet and exercise. Reading it feels like you are taking advice from your best friend. A must read!
