Product Description
In The Right Address, Carrie Karasyov and Jill Kargman seared through the upper crust of New York’s glitterati with wicked glee. In their delicious new novel, Wolves in Chic Clothing, they train their merciless spotlight on the young princes and princesses poised to inherit Park Avenue.
Julia, a hip, downtown salesgirl at Pelham’s jewelry store, finds her social life turned on its head when she is asked to deliver a necklace to the store’s young heiress, Lell Pelham, on Lell’s wedding day. Beguiled by Julia’s earnest cluelessness and her vintage-chic vibe, Lell and her gang adopt Julia, and “Eliza Doolittle” her into passing as the heiress to a family fortune, just for a laugh. Dazed by the whirlwind of trust funds, pedigrees, Cosmopolitans, and penthouses in her new world, Julia is unprepared for the ardent advances of Lell’s husband—or the vicious claws her new “friends” develop when they decide Julia is an ingrate, and demote her from society goddess to penniless cling-on with one well-timed editorial. Suddenly, she must return the borrowed couture clothes and try to remember who she was before the body snatching took place. Hilarious and completely addictive, Wolves in Chic Clothing is a modern-day rags-to-riches-and-back-again fairy tale that will leave fans stamping their Manolo Blahniks for more.

 Loved It, 2008-07-17
I am obsessed with this book! I couldn't put it down. I hope they write another book about these characters. These are the girls you loathe yet secretly wouldn't mind being friends with.

Wonderful Cinderella story, 2007-12-05
The best of funny New York Chick Lit. This Cinderella story has all you need when you curl up with a box of ice cream on a Friday evening.

 The Right Address? Not, 2007-10-16
Book was only ok. I liked the first novel better. This one reminded me too much of Eliza Doolittle and Professor Higgins. If I didn't know better, I'd swear that is where their inspiration came from. It's worth the read but I'd borrow it from the library instead of buying it.

 Wolves In Chic Clothing, 2007-04-03
Flat, pedestrian cliche parody of Sexy in the City, Devil Wears Prada, Nanny Diaries. Clearly living on the fumes and riding the coat tails of the stories listed above, Wolves In Chic Clothing is just one glass of cheap champagne.
The story centers on a group od NY society womens who adopt a young and stylish girl to be their project (hello My Fair Lady). And yawn, all the clumsy descriptive curly-ques. Talk of "well heeled" Manolo wearing, Prada toting bitchy inner intrigue of a bunch of characters who are as boring as predictable.
The story line boils down to some tired and dated message of "Rich people are bad people", "Poor people are real people".
Don't waste your time. Buy yourself a DVD of Sex In The City, Or Devil Wears Prada for the real thing.
Wolves In Chic clothing is the Designer Imposter of books.

Makes you wonder if socialites are like this..., 2007-01-25
I was thrown into this book and got out 2 days later. It's a very easy read, under 300 pages. You will fall in love with the main character and this book will make you go "Awww!" at the end! Haven't read any other book by these authors but am off to get The Right Address!
