In her column, Lisa lets her hair down, roots and all, to show the humorous side of life from a woman's perspective. The Sunday column debuted in 2007 and on the day it started, Lisa wrote, "I write novels, so I usually have 100,000 words to tell a story. In a column there's only 700 words. I can barely say hello in 700 words. I'm Italian."

On Sarah A. Chrisman's 29th birthday, her husband, Gabriel, presented her with a corset. The material and the design were breathtakingly beautiful, but her mind immediately filled with unwelcome views. Although she had been in love with the Victorian era all her life, she had specifically asked her husband not to buy her a corset - ever. She'd heard how corsets affected the female body and what they represented, and she wanted none of it.

Just step out your door today, and you will notice that poise is a rarity in our wired, fast-paced, and unmannerly world. As uncivil behaviors like flip-flops at Broadway shows and digital oversharing proliferate, this timely book reminds us of the quiet power of behaving with dignity, kindness, and grace. Jennifer L. Scott's Parisian mentor, Madame Chic, embodied poise and not just with the good posture, stylish attire, and natural manners that made her extraordinarily elegant.

On Sarah A. Chrisman's 29th birthday, her husband, Gabriel, presented her with a corset. The material and the design were breathtakingly beautiful, but her mind immediately filled with unwelcome views. Although she had been in love with the Victorian era all her life, she had specifically asked her husband not to buy her a corset - ever. She'd heard how corsets affected the female body and what they represented, and she wanted none of it.

They're angry about the media's treatment of women but hungrily consume the very outlets that belittle them. They understand that what they see isn't real but still download apps to airbrush their selfies.

Yikes. Parents heads up!
I generally read the negative reviews first and often look for an indication of who doesn't like a book. I did this here and I found a lot of the reviews seemed salty about advice to stay trim and healthy and the promotion of natural looking make up. I took that as a good enough reason to pay $4 for the audiobook.
I have two daughters. One could use some encouragement to put in a bit more effort. The other a little too eager to be glamorous. I was looking for some simple straightforward personal hygiene and style tips with an emphasis on not overdoing it. The title is of course obnoxious, but I figured it was targeted towards young teens and shrugged it off. I just wanted to make sure my older daughter wasn't going off into the world with no practice in how to looked polished and help my younger daughter avoid that overdone and precocious look I see so often.
Yikes! Craving attention from MEN? As a young teen? Sugar daddies in college? I was honestly was shocked. I have read articles about gen Zers like this, but was floored to find this in a book that is marketed toward teens. I'm so glad I previewed it!
That said, most of the advice here reads as though the author just did a Google search and regurgitated it with a peppy can do attitude, some really over the top stuff, and some frankly dangerous DIY beauty treatments.
Parents, do not get this book for your teens.
