From Hong Kong, to Italy, to Canada, to United States, Hidi Lee believes that no matter where she works, she faces the same kind of person: the one that is confused and insecure of her own body.
Having been a lingerie designer for 24 years, Lee believes this lack of confidence is due to the false body perception that is often implemented by the mass media.

It's about aligning the physical beauty with inner qualities such as mind-set, happiness, self-love, sense of humor, and confidence to complete what is the true meaning of "sexy," from the inside and out. Let her show you how.
She believes that this "one day" is approaching us sooner than anybody thinks. Now is the time to speak for love, generosity, kindness, integrity, and peace. And her dream is contagious.
"Have you ever stood in front of your mirror and completely fall in love with what you see?"

From Style Rookie to Style Bubble, personal style blogs exploded onto the scene in the mid-2000s giving voice to young and stylish writers who had their own unique take on the seasonal fashion cycle and how to curate an individual style within the shifting swirl of trends. Personal Style Blogs examines the history and rise of style blogging and looks closely at the relationship between bloggers and their (often anonymous) readers as well as the response of the fashion industry to style bloggers' amateur and often unauthorized fashion reportage. The book charts the development of the style blogosphere and its transformation from an alternative, experimental space to one dominated by the fashion industry. Complete with examples of several famous fashion bloggers, such as Susie Lau, Rumi Neely and Tavi Gevinson, the author explores notions of individuality, aesthetics and performance on both sides of the digital platform. Findlay asks: what can style blogging teach us about women's writing and the performance of a private self online? And what drives style bloggers to carve a space for themselves online?
