Fly Girl Etiquette: A Modern Guide to Manners and A Properly Fabulous Life

Fly Girl Etiquette is about loving yourself, having high standards, and being the best person you can be in today's world. You can be a lady and dance a striptease in your bedroom for your man. You can balance your checking account and splurge on a pair of Gucci shoes. You can also choose to never marry and take advantage of being the single Fly Girl in town. Our grandmothers could never fathom what today's world would be like, so why would we live by their old standards. It is the age of reality television where being outrageous or releasing a sex tape can make you famous. In today's world, the majority of women go to college, they manage their own finances, spend much of their time at work and with friends, have casual sexual encounters (online or in person), purchase their own homes, party all night, and will defend their right to do so. The old rules do not apply anymore. We have it all!I can imagine your eyes rolling, and you might think, "If I have it all, why do I need this book?" Frankly, we do have it all, but our manners and etiquette are in the toilet, along with the 1897 etiquette rules. Even if we look back 30 or 40 years ago to Diana Ross and Eartha Kitt, walking in a room was a presentation of elegance. Have we ever seen any footage of Cicely Tyson or Jackie Kennedy throwing a drink in a person's face, often aired on reality show cat fights? NO! I work in Hollywood every day and I ask myself, "why be a self-respecting lady when we see people making money and getting attention by selling their intimate stories with celebrities, releasing a sex tape, or fighting in the street?" Our personal well-being has slipped out of our grasp, putting unworthy men and work before our own needs and causing us to forget about our own value. We have the extra task of monitoring our lives and the people around us in a way that our mothers never had to. We struggle to keep our private lives private as our social media involvement explodes on Facebook, Instagram, and networking sites soon to come. We are losing jobs, losing great boyfriends, and forsaking friends because of our behavior.I'm here to help you have it all without losing self-respect and lowering your standards. A fly girl with etiquette knows she has it all and improves her life with her skills. I've included tried and tested lifestyle etiquette, manners, and helpful tips on looking great, feeling great, and always thinking in progressive and insightful ways. Fly girls like Angela Basset, Lupita Nyong'o, and Kerry Washington appear to live by these etiquette rules and techniques on television and in everyday life.
