Overview

Kelly Cutrone has long been mentoring women on how to make it in one of the most competitive industries in the world. In her trademark, no-bullshit style, she combines personal and professional stories to share her secrets for success without selling out. Raw, hilarious, shocking, but always the honest truth, If You Have to Cry, Go Outside calls upon you to gather up your courage like an armful of clothes at a McQueen sample sale and follow your soul where it takes you. Whether you're just starting out in the world or looking to reinvent yourself, this book will be the spark you need to figure out what you have to say to the world—and how you're going to say it.

Editorial Reviews

The Sunday Times
“If anything, the word that should be used to describe Cutrone is ‘feminist’ - it’s just that her version of female empowerment involves acknowledging that ‘you’re no different from anyone else and deserve no special treatment’. Unless, of course, you’ve earned it.”
The Village Voice
“Part memoir and part career guide, geared toward young women breaking into the workforce.”
Aol Career Blog
“In her new book, If You Have to Cry, Go Outside: And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You, Cutrone shares personal stories and offers practical advice to encourage readers to figure out what they really want to do and to go out there and do it.”
Bay Area Reporter
“Intelligent and witty works of wonder...literary bitch-slaps of unfettered straightfoward speech....an honest, instructional pseudo-memoir targeting a new generation of “young girls and gay boys” who want to break into the fashion industry but are unsure they have the chops for it. ”
Columbus Ledger-Enquirer
“Some necessary tough-love truths.”
CupcakeMag.com
“In her trademark, no bull-shit style Kelly gives us the raw honest truth in If You Have To Cry, Go Outside. It is an easy fun read book you most likely will read over and over and continue to laugh out loud.”
Daily News
“Thank God for Kelly Cutrone. [She] is like a breath of fresh air in a world of stale arguments over rumored sex tapes. ”
Dallas Morning News
“[The] powerhouse fashion PR maven we-love-to-hate-but-really-love...”
Elle Magazine
“What everyone loves about Kelly Cutrone, owner of fashion PR firm People’s Revolution and The City’s official BS barometer, is that she isn’t afraid to tell it how it is.”
Los Angeles Times
“She’s also publishing a memoir/guide, turning her take-no-prisoners approach to the fashion business into a message of girl power...entertaining for all.”
New York Magazine
“Part memoir, part self-improvement sermon (and conspicuously published by HarperOne, the spirituality imprint behind some of Marianne Williamson’s and Deepak Chopra’s books), it recounts Cutrone’s own fitful journey.”
New York Post
“Cutrone gives blunt, how-to advice on how to be a “power bitch”... It’s an old-fashioned guide to succeeding in both life and work (phone, not e-mail, you Gen Y-ers!), with a dash of self-styled spirituality and, of course, all dressed up in Balenciaga.”
Out Magazine
“Cutrone’s new book If you have to Cry, Go Outside: And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You is a raw, no bullshit, drama and drug–filled autobiographical joy ride that preaches spiritual self-empowerment over self-sabotage..”
People.com
“Kelly’s book is full of anecdotes from her personal and professional life as well as motivational tips.”
Slate.com
“Though on her TV show Cutrone’s outer bitch is ascendant, in her book, we’re introduced to the softer side of Kelly. Prone to New Age platitudes like, “Celebrate the magic inside of yourself.” This hippie affect is a delightful surprise coming from a woman who also swears like a sailor.”
Star Magazine
“A must-read for career-minded gals entering the workforce – or those who just want to reinvent themselves.”
The Daily Beast
“[A] memoir-ish book of offbeat advice for budding ‘power girls’...”
The Harvard Crimson
“The book outlines [Cutrone’s] tumultuous rise from homelessness to the fashion elite and serves as a guide for navigating an alternative career path.”
The L
“One of the few movers-and shakers who seems to have an enlightened grip on both the dark and light side of the business she navigates with such self-possession.… Clear, concise, to the point, and abrasively, wonderfully honest.”
USA Today
“Cutrone, 44, is infamous to the MTV generation for her untimely eruptions and cutting commentaries. Her hellish take on the fashion world is her ticket to stardom....If You Have to Cry, Go Outside (HarperOne), reads as a gritty guide for young women entering the fashion world.”
WSJ.com
“Choice career and style advice from New York’s most outspoken PR woman.”

    Kelly has soft side!

    I was glad to see that this successful, hard as nails women has a soft side and was willing to let us see it. The book is a memoir of sorts. I wish Kelly was my friend. We all need a friend to sit us down and tell us how it is. I'm still not sure if I could handle her as a boss. I might need to "go outside to cry" now and then. :)

    I Also Recommend:

    Kelly Cutrone is my hero

    My latest read was the newly released "If You Have to Cry, Go Outside" self-help book by legendary PR powerhouse Kelly Cutrone (of The Hills and The City fame).

    I finished this 200-or-so-page book in about 2 hours, on and off during my latest airport trip, and I wished it had been twice as long! I ate up (mostly) everything Kelly had to say and I really enjoyed her honesty and sense of humor.

    For those of you that now watch her new show on Bravo, "Kell on Earth" I think you would be highly surprised by her strong spirituality and peace of mind...yes, peace! Kelly believes in something called the Mother, and her main message when it comes to spirituality is to do what YOU want to do...learn about all religions, then create your own. While I'm not sure this would work for everyone, I applaud her point of view of total and complete open-mindedness.

    Kelly's beginnings ranged in everything from drug addict to a signed singing artist with a contract so to see where she is now is truly uplifting.

    During this New York Fashion Week I have been following Kelly on twitter (@peoplesrev) and she is just balls-out about everything she does...from explaining how fun it is to eat pizza with her interns to noticing who is attending her shows.

    I highly recommend this quick-read for women specifically, and also for those with an interest in PR, fashion, or just living the life of a busy working woman. I HIGHLY recommend her chapter on child birth -- I was crying with laughter! Well done, Kelly!

    Namaste

    I ended up being really shocked how inspiring this book was. I love fashion and respected her on the City, however what is portrayed on T.V isn't always accurate. So, finding out that she is a yogi and has a spiritual side of her makes this book even better. It explains her thought process, which makes complete sense.

    Loved!!

    This book made me feel so empowered with how I need to make changed and take control of my life the entire time I was reading it. Kelly becomes a amzing woman with so much power and drive instead of just being that "PR lady who wears black all of the time" that we all know. I love her story and the way she told it. Offical classic in my book shelf.

    LOVED THIS BOOK!

    I love how this book gives you a different perspective on life besides the "common" way of being successful. I definately didn't want to put this book down and finished reading it the same day I started. Im honestly not into the fashion industy, but I feel that it can help anyone who wants to be successful at their trade, fashion or not. I feel that the people who gave this book a bad review, are oppose to being open minded and thinking outside their comfortable box. Definately a MUST read.

    Kelly is clear and to the point! A must read!

    I'd recommend this book to anyone who wants to hear how things really are and bluntly. Kelly does give some great advice in this book that could benefit someone who needs some motivation to do something with their life.

    If You Love To Read, Buy This Book

    I love this book so much I brought a copy for my daughter. It is a great book. I'd also suggest that you buy another book called "When God Stopped Keeping Score." It's an intimate look at the power of God and forgiveness. Given the chance, it too will change your life.

    It had some good advice

    I was honestly expecting more. It did have some good advice but a lot of what she wrote was far out. I'd say, read it if you have time to wade through her nonsense, you may come out with a few pearls of wisdom.

    Boring!

    I'm was not impressed with this 45 year olds secrets to following your dreams. How sad that women of her generation have her as a guide to self discovery. Pitiful really!

    True To the Game!

    This read is everything you would expect from Kelly Cutrone. She reminds me that the most important thing is to stay true to who you are. If you do that your hopes and dreams can happen just the way you want it. This is such a wise read.

    easy read

    I am 20 years old and will soon graduate college. This book is motivating on how to dream up what you want and follow it through to the end. It does not sugarcoat anything and tells you like it is. Kelly's journey of ups and downs is very inspiring and easy to relate to, even if you were not in the same exact situations as she was. I think everyone can get something out of reading this book. It's not very long, and I could not put it down because it left me wanting to find out more. There were moments that were pretty funny and it talked a lot about the importance of your inner self. I've recommended it to all my friends.

    I Love This Book!

    I love a book that can take no prisoners and offer practical advice that anyone can use. When a book gives the reader a chance to laugh and nod their head, you know you have a winner on your hands. I love this book.

    I also recommend "When God Stopped Keeping Score." I thought that the book was just about forgiveness, I soon learned, it was about so much more. Having read it, I feel like a better person. Maybe because this book spoke to me and not down to me. I have read a lot of books that was written like I didn't know anything. What the author of "When God Stopped Keeping Score" does is talk to you like a friend. I needed that.

    A Straight Up Tale of How To Navigate Life & How To Do It Successfully!

    Shes a great writer! Though at times the story seems a little hard to believe, the story is extremely entertaining and lessons are absolutley valuable. She gives a really straight up account of women in the business world and what is needed to achieve success. Her "no nonsense" style makes this book an easy, fun read. I couldnt put it down. Cant wait to see what she does next!

    Perfect gift for a college grad!

    I recently graduated college and have soon found out that the real world is tough and crushing! This book helped me remember what I love and regain control of my own dreams. She is a spectacular woman from whom you can definitely learn a lot. I would recommend this book to anyone who knows where they are going but are struggling to get there... this book will give you the inspiration needed to get where you want to go!
