Fashion Flash Book Review: What Do You Say When by Florence Isaacs

After more than a year of social distancing, I found myself at a loss for words at a recent outdoor event. The next day, almost like karma, I spotted this small book at a thrift store.  “What  Do I say When” provides genuinely useful strategies for talking comfortably in a wide range of situations– from parties to conventions, the book offers  easy to follow tips.

I find the first moments  of a conversion the hardest and loved the critical path  of openers including ” what brings you here” and  “tell me about your ( company, job, home, baby).  Follow-up questions  should be open ended  eg “what are you focusing on now?” The ten rules of conversation are especially helpful  which include  building a compliment library eg what a beautiful tie, what a great idea or I admire your style.

This small  but mighty book drills down into specific situations like charity events, gallery openings school reunions, and bridal showers. I love to  get dressed up for events but as the date approaches, I develop social anxiety.  What Do You Say When  has made me excited and eager to try out my new social skills.
