Publisher's Synopsis
"No matter how bad you're feeling, you perk up when you have something to strut about-and in. But, while shoes are fun, stilettos represent a challenge. You can't possibly slip on a pair of four-plus-inch stilettos for the first time and walk the walk without wobbling. Everyone starts in flats, because there's no challenge to walking around in them-nor do you enjoy the feel of red-hot femininity and admiring glances. You have to work your way up, and the same is true in business: Inch by inch, we get taller. Our confidence rises. We will undoubtedly stumble-that's called "experience"-but we will never give up." ***** Morgan Demarest is a twenty-three year old fashion diva who has a passion for shopping, stilettos, and indulgence. But her spree-filled life takes a life-altering turn when her fiery artist lover tosses Morgan and her precious designer wardrobe out of his Chicago loft. Having been raised by well-meaning parents who swooped in and saved the day on countless occasions, Morgan is distraught to find that safety net is now gone. As her self-centered world crumbles, Morgan is forced to take a hard look at her past, present, and future. She begins a surprising journey of self-discovery on the road to a new life-in the company of a 21st century Fairy Godmother who has her own set of rules. This fable for today's woman also features a series of "Footnotes" with advice, ideas, exercises, and the occasional kick in the big girl panties. ***** "Full of glamour, great advice and pertinent life lessons, every woman who wants to live her life in a spirited, dynamic and individual way should read this book. A thoroughly modern read for today's woman, I know our customers will love it." -Gemma Metheringham, Managing and Creative Director of Karen Millen of London
