The Secret to Elegance

Everyone likes an elegant person. Do you think it's hard to be elegant? It's not at all! Let me tell you some simple tips to be elegant.

First, you want to look elegant. Be clean and tidy, use pleasant perfume, but not too much! Most important, stand tall and look confident. Good posture and a nice smile will show people you are friendly and polite.

Next, dress elegantly. You don't have to buy expensive or trendy clothes; in fact, classic styles are the most elegant. Keep your outfits simple – solid colors, a few pieces of tasteful jewelry, and appropriate for the occasion. Even if you are just going to the grocery store, you should still dress nicely. An elegant person would never go out in sloppy clothes.

Last, you should behave elegantly. Be polite and have good manners. For example, listen to others and treat everyone with respect. Even if someone is rude to you, an elegant person will be courteous no matter what. As my mother always said “If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.”

An elegant person is a good conversationalist. She makes other people feel comfortable, interesting and valued. Ask polite questions, listen attentively, and offer intelligent comments in a conversation and people will love to be around such an elegant person as you!
