Title: Une femme française
Description: "All American women aspire to have the nonchalant style and grace of French women, that je ne sais quoi that makes all of their habits seem natural and effortless. In Une Femme française, fashion designer Catherine Malandrino, a Frenchwoman who has lived and worked in the US for thirty years, reveals French women's secrets for an American audience. Readers who loved Ines de la Fressange's Parisian chic and our own Entre nous will grab a café and learn: why you are your own creation, not a slave to the latest fashion; why a touch of risqué masculine/outrè makes a woman memorable, the secrets of Jacqueline Kennedy, the avatar for American women who admire the French; hair and skincare tricks from Paris it-girls; that nonchalance, more than perfume, is sexy; how to seduce anyone; why red is a necessity; the real reason French women don't get fat: food is family"--
