DESCRIPTION:
Freakin' Fabulous is freakin' fabulous! Mom to 2 boys Clinton Kelly is hilarious and makes fabulousness accessible to everyone. Broken into 7 sections representing 7 areas of life, Clinton writes like he's in your living room chatting over his favorite gin and tonic. My favorite section is "How to Dress." Major body types of both women and men are given advice on how to dress to flatter your figure. "How to Speak" is wildly entertaining. If I could only teach my English classes like this, my students would learn proper grammar so much easier! He gives these hilarious situations and addresses the most important grammar rules and/or biggest grammar sli. Freakin' Fun Read I read the reviews before I bought the book and now I'm re-reading them. I have to give this full stars because it was just so much fun to read. And not only fun, but full of spot-on good advice. One of you mentioned putting it your guest room. What a great idea. This book is like what I image spending a weekend with Clinton would be like: Fun, fast paced, chatty and gossiping the entire time. For those of you who got all stuffy about some of the pictures. Come on, this book is by an adult who lives in the real world, written for adults who do the same. Lighten UP. Enjoy the book. Be prepared to l. "Fun, fun book" according to Secondhalfer. Clinton has a manner of writing that matches his personality. What a fun book to read! He feels like your gay best friend, as he gives his fabulous opinion on absolutely everything. I've used many of his pointers already. I DO have to disagree with him concerning his opinion about shoes. He says fashion outrules comfort. I wish I could wear all those fashionable shoes to match my fashionable wardrobe. In reality, a bad back makes it not so. But I forgive Clinton for that. A minor detail. I would definitely give this book as a gift to a girlfriend. 5 Stars.
But fabulousness doesn’t stop with style. Don’t worry; Clinton’s here to help.- How do you make a flat butt look big and a big butt look flat?- What’s the one trick that will slim down your entire silhouette and make your ta-tas look va-va-voom?- How do you eat an oyster without getting kicked out of the best restaurant in town?- What’s the grammatically correct form of “lay” to use when propositioning someone?He’ll teach you how to look your best, sound your smartest, use the manners your momma taught you, poach an egg, fix a perfect gin and tonic, throw the most popular parties (and top the guest list at other soirees), make your home the envy of your neighbors, and generally be the fabulous person you always knew you could be. Let’s face it: you might look good, but if you’re chomping on that crudité with your mouth wide open, nobody at the party will talk to you—even if you can explain to them what
