Is your style more shabby than chic? Or maybe you’re the opposite and couldn’t possibly leave the house without making sure you’ve filed, pruned, and dusted. Or are you an ex-career woman who’s trying to run your household like the stock exchange? Or perhaps a trophy wife, left to your own devices while your husband works long hours to pay for your diamonds? This book looks at four stereotypical housewives—Single Mom, Alpha Wife, Stressed-Out Wife, and Trophy Wife—and examines their personalities, homes, clothes, hobbies, and men. Then each wife is offered professional advice from fashion gurus, make-up artists, beauticians, and relationship therapists to help her avoid becoming a desperate housewife.
