"In a society driven by celebutante news and myspace profiles, women of class, style and charm are hard to come by. The Audrey and Katharines of the world continue to lose their luster as thongs, rehab and outrageous behavior burn up the daily headlines. But, despite appearances, guys still want a girl they can take home to their mom, employers still like to see a tailored suit and peers still respect classy conduct. So is it possible to maintain old fashioned virtues in a modern world without looking like a starchy Amish grandma?"

i am loving this book review series! and i am going to have to buy this one--it's exactly how i feel about fashion. thank you for sharing all of these!
I'm really interested in this book, as the subject matter is something I have thought alot about lately.
Thanks!
Jordan Christy seems so sweet! I love her philosophy on life and fashion--being a Hepburn in a Hilton World is something I deal with weekly, although not nearly so eloquently.
Can't wait to watch the interview - and check out this book. Reminded me a bit of "What would Jackie Do?" ..which I absolutely loved. Self-Discipline is a most admirable quality in any woman.
oh my gosh she is so cute! i've totally been meaning to read this book too. now i really have to :)
Oh, this is a woman after my own heart.
I have just added this book to my must-reads.
Thank you!

This is the answer to what I've been trying to say to my nieces for years. Thank you -- I've already ordered the book.
Thinking about this more and more -- and I truly believe it comes down to being a lady. Manners, civility and grace will always be the true essence of style and substance.
I LOVE this... Going to share this post with my girls study group that I host. AND I am going to ask my hubby for this book for Mothers Day.
Loving your blog!
