Description

New York Times Bestseller

"Into the blender go Anita Loos, Bridget Jones, Sex and the City, and Clueless; out comes a diabolically amusing concoction." -- New York Times

A 10th anniversary edition of New York Times bestselling author Plum Sykes's sly and amusing satire, with a foreword by the author.

Bergdorf Blondes are a thing, you know, a New York craze. Absolutely everyone wants to be one, but it's très difficult. You wouldn't believe the dedication it takes to be a gorgeous, flaxen haired, dermatologically perfect New York girl with a life that's fabulous beyond belief. Honestly, it requires a level of commitment comparable to, say, learning Hebrew or quitting cigarettes.

But first, a little bit about moi. The gossips call me a champagne bubble of a girl. I'm fluent in French, intermittently. I gave up England for Princeton to my mother's horror. By day, I write articles for a fashion magazine. By night, I'm on the prowl for the ultimate accessory a Bergdorf Blonde must have: an impossibly rich man with a very large diamond ring.

And of course, I'm fabulous.
