| Summary |
"A late bloomer who came to her career later in life, humorist Wendi Aarons shares the joys, stumbles, and outfit mishaps she's experienced on her road to no longer giving a f***. It's a journey from chunky heels and bad choices from the juniors department to the panache of a comfortable linen tunic (metaphorically, but also literally), enjoying her second act and unapologetically chasing her dreams. With relatable personal anecdotes, an irresistible comedic voice, and inspirational takeaways---you, too, can find self-acceptance and also age-appropriate fashion pajamas---I'm Wearing Tunics Now is a comic memoir with humor and heart" -- Provided by publisher. |
