Tools to Take You to the Top

"From one of the country's most beloved authorities on etiquette, with help from her world-famous granddaughter, Liv Tyler, this is a colorful guide to 21st-century manners for the millions of young professionals who want to be their best in every setting, from business meetings to casual events or when using technology."

"Etiquette means knowing how to behave in any situation. The reason that's important? Because it puts everyone at ease, including the person practicing it. Dorothea Johnson, founder of the Protocol School of Washington, proves that learning the rules can actually be fun. Her keenly observed advice addresses modern quandaries of cellphone and email etiquette as well as the traditional conundrums of making introductions and identifying a four-course place setting. Throughout, her granddaughter, actress Liv Tyler, shares lively memories of learning good manners with her grandmother's help, and stories of how those lessons benefit her today."

How to Live with Elegance and Flair

The glamorous star of Bravo's hit show The Real Housewives of New York Citymakes it easy to be elegant, with contemporary etiquette tips and a complete course in the art of sophisticated living.

Countess LuAnn de Lesseps knows firsthand that class is a state of mind, not a birthright. Raised in Connecticut-half French Canadian, half Native American-she worked as a nurse before she started modeling. On her first trip to Europe, she was awed by the lifestyle of the Italians and stayed, eventually becoming a television personality. At a dinner party in Gstaad, she began a fairytale romance with Alexandre Count de Lesseps, a French aristocrat of the Suez Canal dynasty, who made her a countess.

Through all of her experiences, she learned that class comes from within - and that elegance and taste can be acquired. Now she shares her savvy advice and her inspiring story in Class with the Countess, featuring:

*The Art of Being Yourself (In Any Situation): with tips for making a stellar first impression, exuding self-confidence, and dressing with style
*The Art of Making Other People Comfortable: covering dazzling opening lines, table manners, and how to entertain with ease and grace
*The Art of Seduction: brimming with ways to make yourself alluring to everyone you meet, including how to make a man feel good about himself
The twenty-first century's answer to Emily Post, the Countess gives a new generation of women a lively and incomparable guide to modern social graces.

The Art of Living with Style, Class, and Grace

Jordan Christy shares advice on how to be the most confident version of yourself, in this fully revised and updated edition derived from How to Be a Hepburn in a Hilton World.

Though fashions may change, certain things never go out of style -- like your favorite little black dress that can take you from a business meeting to a dinner party to a night on the town. But what makes it work is not the dress, it's how you present yourself while wearing it. A woman who is polite, well spoken, gracious, charming, and thoughtful is always welcome-though such women appear to be in short supply these days! Despite the headline-grabbing antics of certain flashy celebutantes, most of us would rather have respect -- for ourselves and from our family, friends, and colleagues.

In this fully revised and updated edition, you will learn how to:

- Appear polished without sacrificing your personal style,
- Develop skills and discover interests to boost your self-confidence,
- Find your true friendships and make them stronger,
- Date Mr. Right instead of hooking up with Mr. Right Now,
- Land the perfect internship and your first job
- Have a fun night without the risk of a social media faux pas.

With this insightful guide you'll be loving life with style, class, and grace in no time!
