They all suggest that you find your personal style. Mine is a sort of casual/classic. Out of the above recommendations,, Ready to Wear and 40 Over 40 were the most helpful for everyday wardrobe planning-probably because they are the most recently published.

I like you have decided I am a classic/casual or classic/natural depending on what you are reading. Helpful list of books you posted, some new to me. Thanks.
