When Life Gives You Lululemons


Hello Lit Babes,

  Lauren Weisberger's latest novel is light, funny and modern, and a must read for those who like to laugh.  I mean it's hilarious.  The author has a wicked sense of humor.  Her writing is fast paced and easy reading.  I can see Emily Charlton all over again with her snarky yet witty personality.  Remember when she told Andy Sachs, "I'm sorry, do you have some prior commitment? Some hideous skirt convention you have to go to?"  Lauren's epic writing style has those same wonderfully entertaining and amusing one liners that are just so on point and did I say funny?

I must have watched, The Devil Wears Prada a 100 times.  It's just fun and puts you in a good mood.  If you don't like The Devil Wears Prada we can't be friends.

Moving on!  Emily Charlton is back and she is L.A.'s image consultant to the stars up until recently.  She finds herself losing her edge and her top clients.  Somehow she has to find her way back.  How on earth is Emily going to make it if she keeps losing her clients to the hot new younger girl in town, Olivia Belle.

Insert Connecticut, where former Victoria Secret Angel, and former face of Loreal, Karolina Hartwell was arrested for drunk driving with children in tow.  Apparently empty bottles of champagne were rolling around in the vehicle.  Does Senator Graham Hartwell's wife have a serious drinking problem?

Former hot shot Manhattan attorney, Miriam Kagan, friend of Emily moves to Greenwich to take time off and spend time with her children and husband.  Emily Charlton who is now based in L.A. hears about her number one client pop star Rizzo Benz wearing a very inappropriate costume to a party at 1 Oak in New York.  Emily receives the call from his manager and hops on a plane even though it is New Year's Eve going on New Year's Day.   Once she arrives, she learns that Rizzo wants to go in a different direction and hires Emily's nemisis Olivia Belle.  Emily is livid and takes an Uber to Miriam in Connecticut, because god forbid she is seen taking a train.

She enters Miriam's world of stretchy workout pants and Athleta jackets as the daytime attire in her town.  Miriam introduces Emily to the gorgeous Karolina and after sometime Emily decides that Karolina will be the perfect way to get her groove back.  If she helps Karolina with this horrific scandal she will be back on top.

The story continues with vodka soaked tampons, Frette bath sheets and Eres bikinis.  New York Senator Graham Hartwell has no idea what he is in for, and Emily will be the one to give to him and someone else too!

When Life Gives You Lululemons has a fantastic ending, my only question is, who is Alex?  Please Lauren Weisberger do tell!  You'll know who i'm talking about it once you read the book.

It's the perfect summer read and would be great reading at the beach or pool.  It would be fun to read with a group of girls to just chat about it after, the laughing will ensue and perhaps the champagne too.

I loved this book and you will too.  You can pre-order now on Amazon here:
