Fashion designer, socialite, and self-proclaimed "girly girl" Tinsley Mortimer will be promoting her debut novel in Louisville this Friday [Books]

You may have seen Manhattan socialite Tinsley Mortimer in the pages of fashion magazines or on the red carpet, but this Friday, this Southerner-New Yorker hybrid and glamorous icon will take up the role of debut novelist to promote her very first work of fiction at the Galt House Hotel.

To those familiar with the arc of Tinsley Mortimer's life, the plot of her debut novel, Southern Charm, may sound a little familiar: the heroine, Minty Davenport, is a frilly Southern belle who moves from her small hometown in South Carolina to the Big Apple in search of glamor and glitz, only to become the new "It Girl" after she is photographed for a fashion magazine. Mortimer, it seems, who is known for her line of fashion handbags and socialite lifestyle, has written an autobiography of sorts.
