20 details that will make a woman look more elegant
COLLECTIVE CULTURE
Vivian enters a boutique store in Los Angeles, where she seeks to be served by a local employee to buy some dresses and outfits that Edward Lewis would like to give her in an effort to make her feel more comfortable walking through the streets of the city, especially which she walks around in a skimpy jean skirt, a tattered top and attractive but unruly curly hair.
These garments even cause problems for her to access the hotel, where the future love of her life is staying, showing that Miss Vivian, more than a guest, is a prostitute who accompanies the millionaire Edward during that and the following nights.
And although life is not like a scene from the movie shot by Richard Gere and Julia Roberts, we could go through a situation as uncomfortable as that of this girl, who was recognized as a "classless" woman because of her clothing; Despite this, the protagonist managed to conquer her prince charming, who does not pick her up on a white horse, but in a limousine. "Pretty Woman" is a romantic comedy from which we can extract many ideas to look distinguished.
Well, although elegance is not about wasting money, it does lie in good taste, which is reflected in the choice of garments and accessories that will be combined to create a masterpiece. Julia Roberts is the example on which we can base ourselves to make our style a portrait of elegance that will always focus on the balance of our outfit.
That is, if you wear a sequined dress, reduce the accessories, if you use neutral colors all the time, opt for showy and/or shiny jewelry or if you love ornate makeup, do not wear many necklines on top. You can see all this in the classic and blockbuster «Pretty Woman», but since we like to pamper you, so you don't have to pause and play one of your favorite films ten thousand times, we give you 20 details in which you should put attention so that your second name is "elegance".
20. Balance
ALWAYS choose a protagonist for your outfit.
NEVER mix psychedelic prints with glitter or leather, you'll look like the clown at the party.
19. Height
ALWAYS wear skirts, dresses, shorts or capris that benefit the length of your legs so as not to shorten them if you are not very tall.
NEVER wear something that looks like, more than a dress, a blouse that you stretched before going out, you will fall into the vulgar.
18. Color
ALWAYS try new combinations so your style doesn't become monotonous, boring and bland.
NEVER use more than three colors in clothes, prints, accessories or shoes do not count, it is worth getting out of the mold but not looking like Crayola watercolors.
17. Cleaning
ALWAYS take care that your clothes, shoes, hair and skin are clean, it is useless to go out with the latest of the season if it brings a stain of coffee or makeup. Would you like to know where the red color of the lips and bleached skin come from?
NEVER forget to maintain your shoes, put your clothes in the washing machine and don't forget your shoes in the closet for months.
16. Discretion
ALWAYS use luxury brands, choose only one! Wearing your Michael Kors watch, a Coach bag, Tory Burch flats and the furriest Fendi keychain of all doesn't make you fancy.
NEVER leave the labels, protectors or certificates of authenticity on your bags, watches or clothes, bringing the written brand does not give you, it only takes away elegance.
15. Measurement
ALWAYS wear something you feel comfortable in, pulling up your pants ten times or adjusting the mini top you bought will ruin any look.
NEVER cling to sizes that are not for your body, absolutely all figures can look elegant if you dress them with the right clothes.
14. Basics
ALWAYS have a must in your closet, for example: a white shirt, a black blazer, white tennis shoes, a pair of jeans and your black heels.
NEVER think that the basics are not elegant, on the contrary, fashion is about making the ordinary extraordinary.

13. Season
ALWAYS check the weather before you leave the house, an amazing coat won't help you in spring.
NEVER buy clothes just because you like them, think about their function too, keep you warm, cool, comfortable, etc.
12. Versatility
ALWAYS choose things that you can combine with what you already have, so it will seem that your closet is huge.
NEVER buy just because it is fashionable, base it on what you like and combine it with something modern.
11. Bags
ALWAYS carry your things in a nice and neat bag, this accessory is one of the first that we all turn to see to rate an outfit.
NEVER downplay what your most important personal items keep, don't use diaper bags, but don't carry everything in the pockets of your jeans either.
10. Necklines
ALWAYS dress in what makes you feel comfortable and without risking others seeing more.
NEVER wear short garments or above the knee with pronounced necklines on the top, showing a lot of skin is the antonym of good taste.
9. Jewelry
ALWAYS accessorize, even if it's something small, discreet earrings, simple necklaces, whatever, but don't leave the house looking like you're still wearing your pajamas.
NEVER hang the whole jewelry box, remember, long earrings-simple necklace, large necklaces-discreet earrings, wide watches-no rings on the same hand, many bracelets-no watch on the same hand, use your logic.
8. Volume
ALWAYS balance the bottom with the top, if you wear a maxi skirt do not wear a loose blouse, you will look like a lady, yes, but not elegant.
NEVER choose to wear the tightest you have, what you want is to dress well, not dress up as Elasti-Girl.
7. Language
ALWAYS take care of the rudeness you spit or the way you ask for things, one thing is to be authoritarian and another rude.
NEVER make mistakes like conjugating a verb wrong or letting out an extra “s”.
8. Occasion
WHENEVER you have doubts about the etiquette with which you should dress for each social event, ask!
NEVER wear white dresses to a wedding, evening outfits to morning events and less provocative clothes to a funeral.
6. Posture
ALWAYS keep your back straight and avoid sticking out your belly.
NEVER walk as if you had a stone on your back, even if you wear a Balenciaga, a bad posture will make it look like any other bag.
5. Makeup
ALWAYS highlight your best attribute, let only your lips or eyes be the center of attention. NEVER wear too much makeup, elegance goes hand in hand with naturalness.
4. Nails
WHENEVER you use enamel, do not allow it to fade, a single nail can make a mess of your hands.
NEVER leave your false nails on if one falls off or breaks, in fact this is obsolete and therefore not very elegant.
3. Heels
ALWAYS wear heels make sure you know how to walk, even the red sole of the Louboutin will look common when it seems that at every step you are about to fall.
NEVER wear heels to places where the surface is impossible to cross without tripping, avoid bears and accidents.
*The type of shoes you wear defines your personality
2. Accessories
ALWAYS pay attention to the finishes of your accessory, no matter if it is from the market, from a shopping mall or from 5th Avenue, sometimes something chipped, a crooked closure or a bad seam ruin everything.
NEVER use old, broken or faded things, it is much worse than not using anything.
1. Get to know yourself
ALWAYS think about how you would look in that color, how much it would work to wear those leggings, etc.; Only then will you choose the best option.
NEVER go out without looking in the mirror, elegance is made of details that your reflection can tell you that you forgot.
Julia Roberts had the opportunity to claim her style and fill it with elegance and distinction, but you don't need anyone or have any excuse to take out everything in your closet and turn it upside down, combine it differently, tie it in another way, use it the least expected day, add some heels, change your bag, wear pastel makeup, do what you want, but always stay on the side of good taste, that thin line is easier to cross than you think.
