My dear elegant ladies, welcome back to another video.
Today, I want to share with you some instant elegant hacks anybody could do,
regardless of budget that will definitely elevate your look and make you look
more sophisticated. Instant glamour and anybody could do this.
It's very easy. All you do, just put on a hat.
Maybe this hat was not the best example.
So what do you think? Am I a little bit more glamorous now?
Okay. Quite frankly,
this hat is not the best example and not for this outfit,
but this was the only thing I had with me today.
So we have to use the props we have around us today,
but at least, you'll get the concept.
A hat really does add instantly elegance to a woman.
It is a little bit more old school,
a little bit more kind of 1920s sophistication style.
The whole purpose is that women these days,
they don't wear hats as much as they used to.
Which is why whenever we see a lady wearing a hat,
she comes across more elegant instantly. Okay,
let's take this thing off. Number two,
pointy and very sleek shoes that you wear under a pair of very long and nice
trousers that covers them.
That was a very long introduction.
Ladies, a pair of high heels but sharp pointy ones,
maybe black or maybe in another color,
but they should be matching your trousers.
And what you do is that you wear a long trouser that kind of covers them but
then only the pointy part is showing.
So this is such a good hack if you want elongate yourself,
if you want to appear taller and have a longer looking body.
The sharpness and the pointiness of the shoe helps with that elongation.
But also the heel and also when you're wearing a trouser that covers everything
and gives you that whole silhouette,
you just look like you have a model long legs and it looks really good.
Of course, if you are already on the taller side and the last thing you want to do is to
appear even taller, then just skip this step. But I can tell you ladies,
if you do apply this, you will feel a little bit like a goddess walking around.
Because you will feel like you are this model on the catwalk with this really
long legs and you will feel just really good about yourself. Number three,
boatneck. Although, I'm not really wearing a boatneck,
I'm wearing a v-neck. But it's almost like a borderline boatneck, actually,
well not really because boatnecks, they never go really down.
Boatneck really goes round. They're very rounded.
And before I continue talking about boatneck,
anybody who is an inverted triangle should avoid wearing boatneck.
Because oftentimes,
your shoulders is the widest part of your body already and you will just make
your shoulders appear even wider if you wear a boatneck. So skip this step.
But for the rest of my ladies, I can tell you that the boatneck,
it is such an elegant cut of a dress or a top.
It is really very classic. So it's also very timeless.
You can think a little bit about Hollywood old-school glamour when you see
a lady wear boatneck.
But what I really like about the boatneck is that it really adds the femininity
without having to show off the usual cleavage and going that direction.
Because actually, men love the boatneck a lot, I've noticed.
They see the collarbones.
It kind of adds a little bit of a different sex appeal to an outfit.
So if you are a lady who are very conservative,
yet you want to appear more feminine, the boatneck is definitely a good option.
Before I continue ladies,
I have created a cheat sheet for all my elegant ladies who want to dress
themselves on the budget, yet appear more expensive looking.

is where you will download this free cheat sheet.
I have really gathered some of my best tips and tricks that I actually don't
even mention in this video. So make sure you go to.

and get your cheat sheet. Number four ladies,
and this is one of my favorite fabrics or materials.
So I know you've already heard me talking about this in previous videos,
but ladies, the Cashmere. Of course,
you are going to be looking more elegant and expensive when you are wearing
a Cashmere top or a beautiful Cashmere scarf.
It's just something about that material.
It just looks very delicate and everything that looks more delicate looks
more sophisticated, it looks more affluent. And us high-quality ladies,
that's what we like.
So Cashmere is definitely a material that is worth investing in because it will
elevate your look. Skip the boring cotton tops, wear Cashmere instead.
And if it's spring, summer,
you can always find some thin Cashmere blends short sleeve that you can still
wear, without having to sweat too much.
Number five,
and this one I haven't really spoken about to my students in my elite finishing school,
School Of Affluence.
Join us if you also want to start your transformation journey.
But ladies,
I'm talking about the classic piece every lady should have in their wardrobe.
I'm talking about the high-heel leather boots. However,
it has to be a bit of a thinner heel,
has to be more for outings rather than to run around and do your errands in type of boot.
This is a boot that will require you to take taxi or drive.
It's not really a shoe for long distance walking.
But it is a boot that is so attractive and men love it because it's very sexy.
As you know, I advocate for feminine style. And actually,
if you are already very elegantly dressed and you add something that has
a little bit of sex appeal to it,
you will add this perfect little spice that you need some times in your recipe
to make everything just like blend perfectly well together. A woman,
however, who is already a little bit more in the provocative side,
somebody who may be dressed as a very provocatively or have this natural
provocative energy might want to reconsider this provocative boot.
Because it might just add too much spice to her recipe.
But for all of us, other ladies, definitely invest in a pair.
Because this type of boots, it is something that is a very timeless piece,
especially if you buy it in black,
especially if you buy it without any embellishments or decorations.
It will last you for year after year after year,
so you can really make sure to spend on this boot. Because actually,
a nice designer,
leather high-heel boots like Louboutin or Jimmy Choo might look really,
really good and can actually truly transform an outfit instantly.
Then you can wear your,
let's say H&M trousers underneath and some basic top and you will still look
really glamorous. Number six,
we have the scarf ladies.
So I haven't really spoken too much about scarves in my videos.
But of course,
the scarf is a very important staple piece in most women's wardrobe,
especially if you want to be elegant and you want to look expensive.
I suggest we do a scarf tying episode in another video,
but I just want you to understand the concept.
When you just add something to yourself,
you instantly look a little bit more sophisticated.
Surely I might look a little bit like a cabin crew lady right now,
but you understand what I mean. When you add this little details,
you can create a lot of interesting things with your outfit. That's one.
And number two,
you just add a little bit more sophistication to it
because scarfs are truly
a resemblance of a very elegant woman. All elegant women wear scarves.
So I really think it's important to invest in one and especially invest in
multiple colors.
Because scarves are used in a way when you're matching them with outfits that
you have, depending on color.
And you may be sometimes want to accentuate on certain colors or bring out
certain colors. It's truly a perfect way of accessorizing. So make sure,
you get a scarf if you can afford to invest in Hermes scarf because they're
truly one of the top ones. I personally like Emilio Pucci a lot.
They have a lot of interesting patterns and colors.
So that's my little tip for you today. Ladies,
we have reached the last point and it's number seven.
A very important hack to really think about is to really invest and upgrade
all your casual clothes. This may include outerwear,
sneakers and trousers you wear on a daily basis,
tops you're wearing on a daily basis, maybe even weekend wear.
If you are a woman,
you are in corporate clothes the entire week and then during the weekend,
you go more casual. Then your weekend clothes,
you really want to invest in.
And ladies, I'm not necessarily talking about the clothes you wear at your home,
which of course, feel free to upgrade them as well because that's also important.
But I'm really talking about the more casual clothes you would wear when you are
out running errands,
you're doing maybe some more everyday things in them
or maybe you go into your countryside,
or just with your family relaxing and you're wearing something much more relaxed.
And what happens when we are wearing much more relaxed clothes is that that
usually downgrades our appearance immediately.
We end up looking scruffy, less feminine,
less sophisticated, and we ended up looking extremely basic.
For instance,
a puffer jacket does not have to be some really boring and basic puffer jacket
that looks like it was bought for $50. Instead,
you can have a more sophisticated puffer jacket. Let's say,
you invest in a Max Mara one. Why not?
A puffer jacket as an example is something you will be wearing for many years.
It's something you will probably be wearing quite a lot as well.
So think about the return on the financial investment you make there.
Spending a little bit extra on like a puffer jacket from Max Mara,
it's going to really elevate you,
compared if you just buy a puffer jacket from H&M.
That's not going to do you any favor whatsoever. So that was just an example.
I could give you much more examples,
but I want you to understand that the whole principle is that
the clothes you wear the most, you should invest in the most financially.
Oh yes. Because when you also invest more in those clothes financially, ladies,
these clothes,
they tend to look a little bit more expensive than if you are cutting corners
and going for the cheapest possible H&M stuff.
Quality can be seen.
People do pick up on these small details and that really what does add elegance,
expensiveness to an outfit when you are dressed in finer materials,
more high quality materials, and the clothes simply fit you better.
And there's a last point on this subject.
Whenever you are being more casual and all of those things,
just make sure you make a little bit more effort with your outfit but also your grooming.
Grooming cannot be forgotten, ladies.
It's an instant elegant hack too, because with a perfectly blow dry hair,
any outfits containing jeans will look good in a woman. And you know,
I'm not a big jeans girl, so make an effort. It's really not that difficult.
