`Ultra-smart and classily edgy, this is the glitz novel brought up to date" SUNDAY TIMES

"This debut novel is the perfect summer read – as delightfully fruity as a glass of Pimm's and with a similar kick, one that catches you unawares." DAILY MAIL

`funny, charming and a certain bestseller.` IN STYLE

'a perfect pick-me-up' COSMOPOLITAN

`This is a book all women will identify with, and you’ll adore Louise, who’s every bit as charmingly neurotic and nutty as Bridget Jones.’ GLAMOUR

`A brilliant read with fashion advice thrown in!’ NEW WOMAN

`an irresistible love story and self-help manual rolled into one.’ ELLE

"It's surprising that this is Kathleen Tessaro's first novel as her style shows the confidence and ease of a more seasoned writer… A charming, entertaining novel." PUNCH

`a fantastic book… funny, moving and most importantly its tongue is firmly planted in its cheek regarding fashion. Enjoy!’ Cat Deeley

Born in Pittsburgh, Kathleen Tessaro studied drama at Carnegie-Mellon University before emigrating to London. After ten years working as an actress in films, television, and theatre, she left the profession and spent several years working for the English National Opera, while training in the evenings as a drama teacher and voice coach.

During this time, she began to write. Working on short stories during her lunch hour, she soon became a regular member of the Wimpole Street Writers Workshop, a collection of women authors who meet every week.

She is married and lives in North London. Elegance is her first novel.
