The Art Of Being A Woman: A Simple Guide To Everyday Love And Laughter

From the author of "The Art of Doing Nothing" comes a practical approach to discovering joy in the things of everyday life. "The Art of Being a Woman" is designed to infuse women's lives with the one thing that they have been missing: unabashed "joie de vivre."

It takes a great woman to spot greatness in other women. Have a good laugh at your own expense.
Discover how completely happy you are in your own skin.
Such experiences, says Veronique Vienne, are expressions of the art of being a woman.
In this gem of a book, Vienne gently guides women of all ages and cultures through the practical- and a few rather more whimsical- lessons in the art of womanhood and in the joy of loving life as only a woman can. Along the way, she imparts unique gifts of wisdom such as:
- An alert mind is the most eye-catching feature of a face.
- Smart compliments can improve the way you look as much as beauty products.
- Paying more to eat less is counterintuitive, yet it is the best diet around.
- Fashion is a nonsurgical nip-and-tuck technique.
- Female camaraderie keeps you healthy.
- Men should be given the benefit of the doubt (because they truly need it).
With its spirited prose and witty illustrations, "The Art of Being a Woman" informs and celebrates the many ways we all can release our insecurities, count our blessings, and experience what the French call "joie de vivre," a lively tryst between heart and mind.
