Bergdorf Blondes

Plum Sykes's outrageous and funny debut novel features a bevy of tanned, gorgeous, and wealthy New York beauties who are out to find husbands and have a great time in the process. Gussied up in their Manolo Blahniks, Chloe jeans, and Chanel frocks, the narrator and her friends live the limo life, eating at the latest fad restaurants, popping into trendy bars for a Cosmo or a Bellini, hitting the posh boutiques, and getting the proper bikini wax. The course of true love, of course, doesn't run smooth, even for these pampered princesses, but, in the end, life's rewards continue to fall into their laps--albeit from some unexpected sources.
