I started thinking I must be doing something wrong. What is it that I am doing wrong to attract the type of man who doesn't have a job and doesn't have a car?
— Vessa Rinehart, make-over client

Author and motivational speaker Ginie Sayles grew up poor but ended up marrying a millionaire. Vessa Rinehart, her eager student, has tired of dating men without cars or gas money and has come to Sayles to learn the ways of moving with the rich and powerful. From how close to stand to people (16 - 19 inches is the preferred distance) to which colors to wear (a woman of "pedigree vintage" always chooses bright colors), Sayles has developed a precise formula for how to mix confidently with the upper classes. On the agenda is a makeover and shopping spree on Rodeo Drive and attending an upscale art auction, where the subtleties of class are on full display as Vessa mills around putting her newly learned skills into practice. Will she meet the rich man of her dreams? And can we learn to change classes, or are we forever trapped in the one we grew up in?
