Good manners will make you fabulous. Good manners will make
you sexy. The well-mannered get invited to more dinner
parties, see their career aspirations blossom, and have a
wider array of friends and eligible suitors. So if you want
to become your most fabulous self, read on--The Fabulous
Girl's Guide to Decorum is your ticket to becoming the
girl you want to be.
Authors Kim Izzo and Ceri Marsh
know first-hand that today's young women require etiquette
advice that speaks to their modern sensibilities. Yes, we
girls need to know how to write a perfect thank-you note and
set a proper table--but we also need to know how to handle a
one-night stand, how to ask for a promotion, what to wear at
an art opening, and when a budding romance should move from
supper to sex.
With The Fabulous Girl's Guide to
Decorum, Izzo and Marsh have written the
etiquette guide for the new millennium and created the
ultimate icon of style for the 21st century: The Fabulous
Girl. She's liberated but chic, impeccably mannered but
never a snob, confident but compassionate, full of verve
instead of vanity. She's the epitome of Audrey Hepburn-esque
style and savoire faire at the workplace, at a dinner
party, and even in the bedroom.
The Fabulous
Girl's Guide to Decorum addresses all aspects of urban
life, including careers, friendships, families,
entertaining, socializing, romance, and sex (these days they
don't necessarily go hand in hand!) and provides invaluable
advice on how to navigate these tricky waters with unfailing
grace. From what to wear at a power lunch to how to behave
at a film premier, Izzo and Marsh address topics such
as: --Coping with an office backstabber --Taxi and
door-holding protocol on dates --How to handle an affair
with the boss --Hosting the perfect dinner party --How
to handle fair weather friends --Protocol for first-night
sex --The 10 things an FG will always have in her
handbag --Saving face when a male buddy has become too
attached Charming, witty and eminently practical, The
Fabulous Girl's Guide to Decorum is as essential as the
little black dress and a must for every young woman's
bookshelf.
