How to Be a Hepburn in a Hilton World: The Art of Living with Style, Class & Grace

The exact reading niche for this book is difficult to determine. Those who already want to live with intelligence and class like the classic strong Hollywood women from the 1940s and 1950s will be hard-pressed to find much new information here beyond the fashion advice (which is quite good). On the other hand, the partying "Stupid Girls" who most need this book probably won't be inclined to pick it up. Still, everyone gets tired of partying eventually. Hopefully this book will serve as a much-needed guide to women raised to a partying lifestyle by reality tv and the media instead of to use the freedoms our suffragette fore-mothers fought for to the best of our abilities.
