Practically Posh is the budget babe's guide to the good life. Filled with thrifty tips and delivered with style and humor, this do-it-yourself handbook is designed for glam girls on the go who want to live large on their little paychecks. Packed with brilliantly simple advice, Robyn Moreno teaches that it's about more than just finding deals--it's about finding pleasure in your present life. It is about being resourceful--working with what you have, then working what you have. Practically Posh is your bible for living as a bon vivant on a budget. From how to score a seat at the trendiest restaurant and tips for being arty without being affected, to easy cheats for staying beautiful and advice on how to book your dream vacation now, the book includes anecdotes, sidebars, quotes, quizzes, and gorgeous photos to punctuate the information from Moreno and her team of experts. So for anyone who refuses to be slowed down by life's practicalities, let ingenuity and attitude be your currency and Practically Posh be your guide.
I am a single woman in my late-thirties. I wish I had this book in my late twenties and early thirties. It contains tons of information that I had to learn by trial and error as well as other tips that I did not know about then but sound like a great idea now. The book is fun & entertaining but also practical and should be kept as a reference book. It's a nice starting point to building your "grown-up" life.

This book has practical, modern tips for being posh without lots of bling. It exudes class. All the tips are ingenious and helpful. It's kept short and sweet, and is a very easy read. The layout is robust with art and pictures. The writer knows style. This book is enough to go from frumpy to Glamorous Posh.
What a great read!

The book has plenty of visuals and is so well put together that you can pick it up and read 5-10 pages without even realizing. This is the pefect book for busy women on the go who want to uncover the secrets of living a posh life, practically - a feat not easily accomplished, but with Moreno's help - a possibility for all of us glam girls. This will be on my "give list" for Christmas this year!
