'Perfectly pitched - playful, funny, satirical and sweet. I laughed out loud many times' Anna Wintour, Vogue
'Sykes has a distinctive, wily and well-deployed comic voice . Into the blender go Bridget Jones, Anita Loos, Sex and the City and Clueless; out comes a diabolically amusing concoction' New York Times

Meet Moi. She's a devilishly delicious champagne bubble of a girl about town. Together with her BFF Julie Bergdorf - department store heiress, queen of Park Avenue and owner of hair universally acknowledged as the Perfect Shade of Blonde - life is a whirl of ball gowns, baby showers and blow-dries.
But, strictly entre nous, Moi knows that there's more to life than peach bellinis and private jets. She's searching for two must-have accessories that never go out of style: true love, and a divine fiancé to shower her with it.
Plum Sykes' latest novel, Wives Like Us, is out now.

Sykes has a distinctive, wily and well-deployed comic voice . Into the blender go Bridget Jones, Anita Loos, Sex and the City and Clueless; out comes a diabolically amusing concoction
Mishaps and misadventures, fabulously accessorized, très romantic. A comedy of social mores in Manhattan
Explosive . Lifts the lid on the swirling social world of New York's fashion industry
Savagely funny
Fun, bubbly, riveting
Hilarious, witty and clever, it's the story of a New York society girl about town with a wardrobe to die for and loads of charm

Textul de pe ultima copertă
The tenth anniversary edition of New York Times bestselling author Plum Sykes's timeless satire
Bergdorf Blondes are a thing, you know, a New York craze. Absolutely everyone wants to be one, but it's actually 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 all requires a level of commitment comparable to, say, learning Hebrew or quitting cigarettes.
Our heroine, "Moi," described as a "champagne bubble of a girl about town," gets into misadventures with fellow socialite and best friend Julie Bergdorf, a department store heiress. When Moi notices that getting engaged brings about a glow unattainable by facials, she and Julie scheme and shop to attract the perfect PH (Prospective Husband). Sykes's debut is a pitch-perfect examination of the glittering lives of the young, rich, and fabulous living in New York.
