Overview

Read Pamela Keogh's blogs and other content on the Penguin Community. An irresistible guide to modern-retro style, celebrating the legacies of two iconic women. The hit TV show ""Mad Men"" recently featured an ad campaign with two images of a model in her underwear. As a brunette, she sips from a china teacup. As a blonde, she swirls a cocktail. Debutante or bombshell? Sometimes women want to be both. On the surface, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Marilyn Monroe could not be more different, but they had more in common than just JFK. ""Are You a Jackie or a Marilyn?"" is a fun way to explore the classic madonna/ whore conundrum while becoming fabulous in all aspects of life. Readers start by taking the definitive quiz to determine where they fall on the Jackie/ Marilyn spectrum, and then it's on to customized advice on beauty and style, sex and marriage, power and career, decorating and entertaining, and more. Any woman who has aspired to Marilyn's sultry allure or Jackie's unstoppable elegance (or who wants to balance sexy and serious) will love these entertaining lessons on channeling your inner Jackie or Marilyn in any situation, from throwing a dinner party to penning a love note. Sidebars compare Jackie's and Marilyn's dating tips, lists of favorite books and music, diet plans, and even makeup know-how. Packed with charming two-color illustrations, this is the book that gives every woman her own star power. Watch a Video

Reviews

The life and style of Marilyn Monroe and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis are at the centerpiece of Keogh's whimsical book. Harper's Bazaar I love this book! Jackie and Marilyn's timeless fashion aesthetic extends beyond generations - the fact that their style inspires us is a testament to their originality. Jason Wu Figuring out whether you are a Jackie or a Marilyn will revolutionize your closet and transform your love life. Okay, so I'm exaggerating a bit...but it's still a fantastic read!!!
