In Pretty in Plaid, Jen Lancaster reveals how she developed the hubris that perpetually gets her into trouble. Using fashion icons of her youth to tell her hilarious and insightful stories, readers will meet the girl she used to be.

Think Jen Lancaster was always “like David Sedaris with pearls and a super-cute handbag?” (Jennifer Coburn) Think again. She was a badge-hungry Junior Girl Scout with a knack for extortion, an aspiring sorority girl who didn’t know her Coach from her Louis Vuitton, and a budding executive who found herself bewildered by her first encounter with a fax machine. In this humorous and touching memoir, Jen Lancaster looks back on her life—and wardrobe—before bitter was the new black and shows us a young woman not so very different than the rest of us.

The author who showed us what it was like to wait in line at the unemployment office with a Prada bag, how living in the city can actually suck, and that losing weight can be fun with a trainer named Barbie and enough Ambien is ready to take you on a hilarious and heartwarming trip down memory lane in her shoes (and very pretty ones at that).]]> 5093760 5 5160502 book 5 5 2009 Pretty in Plaid: A Life, a Witch, and a Wardrobe, or, the Wonder Years Before the Condescending, Egomanical, Self-Centered Smart-Ass Phase total:1413|5:380|4:550|3:382|2:80|1:18| 1413 5437 3021 344 14577 3.98 15100 3534 55547187 126125 5093760 0451226801 9780451226808 344 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255616055m/5093760.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255616055s/5093760.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5093760.Pretty_in_Plaid_A_Life_a_Witch_and_a_Wardrobe_or_the_Wonder_Years_Before_the_Condescending_Egomanical_Self_Centered_Smart_Ass_Phase 3.85 1401 The hardcover debut from the New York Times bestselling author- the prequel to Bitter is the New Black.
