Hope you are having a fantastic weekend! Today I am bringing you my review for this fabulous book filled with Snark and laughs.💕
When Life Gives You Lululemons by Lauren Weisberger
4 Sassy Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Synopsis
New York Times bestselling author Lauren Weisberger returns with a novel starring one of her favorite characters from The Devil Wears Prada—Emily Charlton, first assistant to Miranda Priestly, now a highly successful image consultant who’s just landed the client of a lifetime.
Welcome to Greenwich, CT, where the lawns and the women are perfectly manicured, the Tito’s and sodas are extra strong, and everyone has something to say about the infamous new neighbor.
Let’s be clear: Emily Charlton, Miranda Priestly’s ex-assistant, does not do the suburbs. She’s working in Hollywood as an image consultant to the stars, but recently, Emily’s lost a few clients. She’s hopeless with social media. The new guard is nipping at her heels. She needs a big opportunity, and she needs it now.
Karolina Hartwell is as A-list as they come. She’s the former face of L’Oreal. A mega-supermodel recognized the world over. And now, the gorgeous wife of the newly elected senator from New York, Graham, who also has his eye on the presidency. It’s all very Kennedy-esque, right down to the public philandering and Karolina’s arrest for a DUI—with a Suburban full of other people’s children.
Miriam is the link between them. Until recently she was a partner at one of Manhattan’s most prestigious law firms. But when Miriam moves to Greenwich and takes time off to spend with her children, she never could have predicted that being stay-at-home mom in an uber-wealthy town could have more pitfalls than a stressful legal career.
Emily, Karolina, and Miriam make an unlikely trio, but they desperately need each other. Together, they’ll navigate the social landmines of life in America’s favorite suburb on steroids, revealing the truths—and the lies—that simmer just below the glittering surface. With her signature biting style, Lauren Weisberger offers a dazzling look into another sexy, over-the-top world, where nothing is as it appears.

She’s baaack… Love when I get to revisit a favorite character and Emily definitely tops my list of all-time favorite characters… “The Devil Wears Prada” is a favorite of mine! Loved all the Snark, laugh out loud moments, and of course the fashion…. oh and I mustn’t forget Maranda, who makes an appearance in this book and is still as vapid as ever….”that’s all…”
Emily is now an image consultant to the stars, living in California… but when supermodel Carolina gets her self in some trouble Emily heads to Greenwich, Connecticut…. greenwich is filled with beautiful mansions and Lululemon wearing mommies… Carolina has been charged with a DUI with kids in the car…. Emily, Carolina, and Miriam, lawyer turned stay at home mom, bond together to fight the charges and the other mothers of Greenwich…
The story is told from all three points of view… I loved all three of these ladies, they were all so much fun and I loved the bond they formed… nothing better than strong female friendships in a book…. if you are a fan of the previous book this is a must-read… filled with all the Snark, fun,and laugh out loud moments of the first book….
Absolutely recommend as a fun beach read or an escape from reality during the heat of summer☀️
