Elegant Self Confidence
How To Be Elegant
Secrets of Elegant Self Confidence, Poise and Gracefulness
Let me start by sharing this wonderful quote by Genevieve Antoine Dariaux,
"To be elegant is first of all to know oneself, and to know oneself well requires a certain amount of reflection and intelligence."
 
There are two stages of becoming elegant, starting first from the workings of inner elegance, because true elegance starts from within.
Everyone knows somebody elegant.
She could be a celebrity. That girl who seems to have it all together. The one with all the designer clothes and bags. The soft spoken girl who speaks eloquently.
I've been trying to define the elegant woman for as long as I can remember. Dictionary.com defines an elegant woman is one who is pleasingly graceful and stylish in appearance and manner.
Kindness Rules & Be Yourself
An elegant woman is a gracious woman.
She is gracious till the end. She will never shove others out of her way in a crowded train. It doesn't matter if she looks elegant, speaks the part but fails terribly in her everyday life. The truth eventually finds its way out.
The way to be gracious?
Love others, value and esteem others. Treat everyone the same, regardless of social status, looks, speech, education. Do not save your best manners for certain people only. Genuinely care and put others first. Instead of telling people about yourself, listen to others and let them talk about themselves.
