In \u003ci\u003eLet's Just Say It Wasn't Pretty\u003c\/i\u003e, she shares the wisdom she accumulated through the years as a mother, daughter, actress, artist, and international style icon. This is a book only Diane Keaton could have written--a smart and funny chronicle of the ups and downs of living and working in a world obsessed with beauty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn her one-of-a-kind voice, Keaton offers a message of empowerment for anyone who's ever dreamed of kicking back against the \"should\"s and \"supposed to\"s that undermine our pursuit of beauty in all its forms. From a mortifying encounter with a makeup artist who tells her she needs to get her eyes fixed to an awkward excursion to Victoria's Secret with her teenage daughter, Keaton recounts funny and not-so-funny moments from her life in and out of the public eye. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor Diane Keaton, being beautiful started with being true to who you are, and in this book she also offers self-knowing commentary on the bold personal choices she made through the years: the wide-brimmed hats, outrageous shoes, and all-weather turtlenecks that made her an inspiration to anyone who cherishes truly individual style. She recounts her experiences with the many men in her life--including Warren Beatty, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, and Sam Shepard--and shows how our ideals of beauty change as we age, and explains why a life well lived may be the most beautiful thing of all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWryly observant and as fiercely original as Diane Keaton was herself, \u003ci\u003eLet's Just Say It Wasn't Pretty\u003c\/i\u003e holds up a mirror to our beauty obsessions--and encourages us to like what we see.","brand":"Random House Trade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51947866587367,"sku":"9780812984767","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0449\/4075\/5096\/files\/imageloader_66dd53c1-64cf-4372-bb73-e34ac93cefae.jpg?v=1775502609","url":"https:\/\/arvidabookco.com\/products\/lets-just-say-it-wasnt-pretty","provider":"Arvida Book Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
