“WWKD” – What Would Kelly Do? As cliché as that sounds, it is the best way of living life when this world seems to be overflowing with cookie cutter people desperately swimming to keep their heads above water.

“Why try so hard to be normal?” asks Kelly. “Where is the fun in that?”

Most of you will scoff and say, easy for you to say. Kelly Cutrone is, after all, one of the biggest names in the fashion world who is known for her confidence and “I don’t give a shit what you think” attitude. If you were thinking along the same lines, then you really do need to read this book because it will give you all the secrets to how she became who she is now, and how she gets away with head-to-toe black outfits and makeup-free face everyday in a field full of Barbies and Kens.

After her first book, If You Have to Cry, Go Outside: And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You, became a huge success and the talk of the town, Cutrone made the brilliant choice of writing another masterpiece that you can’t even compare to those trashy reads by self-absorbed reality stars. As an avid Cutrone fan who owns the entire season of her show “Kell on Earth,” I can guarantee you that her words will inspire you in a way that no one else can.

Yeah, yeah, you have your girlfriends for relationship advice, older sister for fashion advice, and your mom to comfort you when you come home with a broken heart. But who can do all three, plus many more tips on career, friendship and living life the way you should be living, all in a hilariously witty and addictive language? Our one and only Kelly Cutrone, and no one else. By the time you put down this book, you will feel like you just made a new friend, an aunt and a mom.
