About the author

Derek Blasberg was born in St. Louis, Missouri.

Equal parts Midwestern good boy, Manhattan man-about town and international enthusiast of style, Blasberg has a unique perspective on some of the world's chicest ladies--and biggest tramps!

One sentence review: A good starter read for a younger sister (age 16-19), but may have to read in multiple sittings.

I'd recomend if you want a book that you can just dip in from time to time, with tips and advice on all sorts of stuff, from dress codes at parties, to what shape eyebrows suits you. And it's funny.
Sich in der High Society New Yorks bewegend und auf vielen Partys feiernd, lässt Blasberg all die jungen verwirrten und ahnungslosen Frauen der westlichen Welt nicht im Stich, ihren Weg zur Eleganz zu finden. Trotz Blasbergs Leben in oberen Kreisen (die vielen Fotos mit Berühmtheiten zeugen davon) finde ich seine Tipps äußerst praktisch auch für uns weniger bzw. gar nicht betuchten. Vieles kann man auf sein Leben übertragen. Vergnüglich geschrieben, ist „Classy“ ein ernstzunehmender Ratgeber. Auch ein Hoch auf Byrdie Bell, die Modell stand für die eleganten Lady- und amüsanten Trampfotos. Also Mädels, legt Eure Smartphones weg, hört auf mit den Selfies, Blasbergs „Classy“ zur Hand und lernt eine Lady des 21. Jahrhundert zu werden, die die Klasse der Alten und die Coolness der Neuen Welt in sich verbindet und lebt.
