    One of the things that makes a woman truly elegant: Books, self confidence, being musical, articulate, knowing social graces and being kind and generous. These are rules for elegance that people dont mention and should mention regularly!

    • @IvyRoad
      @IvyRoad 2 роки тому +101

      What you said. Elegance also involves naturalness and simplicity. Not trying too hard. There's a certain refinement that is subtle and understated. You can't quite figure out what it is about the woman that makes her so elegant because there's nothing obvious or flashy about her. Think Audrey Hepburn visiting impoverished parts of the world with Unicef. Or Michelle Obama facing rabid critics and haters with grace and intelligence. True elegance depends both on outer things like understanding the cut of a garment, and inner things like composure, grace and dignity. And it will all fall apart if the person is self absorbed, conniving, or unkind. ETA: I didn't actually see anything about "elegance" in the video.

      @@IvyRoad I agree with you! It reminds me of Belle (or really any of the disney princess cartoons) from beauty and the beast, how she handles the beast and the way she is so kind and loving to her father...she is extremely elegant in the kind of woman that she is even if shes just wearing a blue peasant dress. It's a lesson that elegance comes from the heart and soul. It is easy to spot but difficult to master.

      @@OpiumBride Yes, this influencer is very clear that her goal is to teach women how to land rich men. She's been interviewed about it and that's what this is all about. It's not about elegance at all, it's about dressing yourself to be the woman a rich man wants to have. I can respect her honesty, but let's face it, that is not the same thing as dressing or being elegant.

    For any ladies watching, "basic" is actually a style aesthetic (also mine) so definitely don't feel discouraged. It also depends on how old you are, where you live, what the "style culture" is like there, etc. For instance, the skinny jeans and Chelsea boot combo is my go-to church outfit; it's comfortable, casual yet classy, not crazy and not lazy, and it makes me happy, which is all that matters!

    It really depends on the area you are from that affects your style. For example, in the southern part of the US it is VERY hot during the spring, summer, and fall (especially the summer). That's why, if you go there during this time of the year, you will see a lot of people wearing not very "fashionable" clothing. We are literally MELTING from the heat! We tend to lean towards your basic styles, because they tend to be cooler and easier to wear in sweltering temperatures.

    about the plaid shirts: some people, including myself, like wearing them for a casual and comfy look. and we like how it’s a little more masculine. masculine isn’t the bad thing, it’s the expectation how women are expected to wear one thing and men another. clothes don’t have gender and a women looking more masculine isn’t a bad thing. people who don’t always try to look elegant like these plaid shirts because they are easy to throw on and can be dressed up a little :)

    I find I can make it look almost elegant if I pair it with my usual classic style. It’s all in the styling and colour.
    Unfortunately, wool/cashmere coats just don’t cut it in -40 degree weather for me, even with layering.
    P.s. North American ladies, if you’re looking at Max Mara (The Manuela is really quite elegant), try either buying it yourself in Europe or having a friend do so… excellent quality that lasts a lifetime for almost 3/4 of the NA retail price. 💕

Always add some pizazz if you don’t want to look basic. Plus if your hair, nails are done in an elegant way you are already not basic. It’s the whole vibe y’all you can bring elegance to any style it’s how you carry yourself. Have fun with your clothes just have elegance as the underlying theme.
