Product Description
A stylishly smart collection of practical advice for the busy modern woman With information on entertaining, etiquette, housekeeping, basic home repair, decorating, sex, and beauty, this indispensable book has everything today's young woman should know-but may not! The Modern Girl's Guide to Life is a collection of all the helpful tips and secrets that get passed on from generation to generation, but many of us have somehow missed. It's full of practical, definitive advice on the basics -- the day-to-day necessities like finding a bra that fits, balancing a checkbook, making a decent cup of coffee, and hemming a pair of pants. Modern Girl guru Jane Buckingham includes loads of savvy counsel to help us feel more refined, in charge, and together as we navigate the rocky terrain that is twenty-first-century womanhood.

 Maybe I just expected too much from it November 9, 2008
Because of all the 5 star reviews, I thought this guide was going to be extremely helpful. Unfortunately, the book was not nearly as helpful as I expected it to be. A lot of the things mentioned are just pure common sense. I give it 3 stars because the cover and layout is very cute, but the layout itself could have been organized better for easier navigation. I did learn a few helpful hints from it, which is another reason I give it 3 stars. All in all, I wish I hadn't gotten it. I will probably donate it to my library. I wouldn't really recommend it.
 THE BOOK, for recent and soon to be college graduates June 1, 2008

I have a large collection of books to help me save money, time and energy, so i can say this is my ultimate "life" book. It covers all the subjects I knew nothing about and updated me on the subjects college already introduced. This book is a course college never offers (and wouldn't price so cheaply).
Any parents worried about their daughters learning to lead their lives here is the first step. This is written for the modern woman without the trash and sleaze. There isnt a plethora of tips per section, but an in depth guide.
