Through reading other people's blog posts, I came across some rules on how to achieve a timeless, classy look. "Chic", if you will. Here they are:
1. The 2 color rule - I'm still not 100% sure what this is, but French women follow this rule when dressing. Sure, no more than 2 colors, but does this include neutrals and toenail polish? If anyone knows about his rule, please enlighten me!
2. Either wear a necklace OR earrings. Not both.
3. Either make-up your eyes OR your lips. Not both.
Audrey Hepburn followed these rules and, as we all know, she was the epitome of class. People still try to emulate her simple grace.
Recently, I went to a reunion of sorts and I used these rules. Here I am, trying to look classy:
I think I followed the 2 color rule by wearing only blue and black, but I did have pink nail polish. Also, there is more than one shade of blue in the necklace. Maybe I didn't follow this rule after all! Can someone PLEASE explain this rule?
I chose to wear a necklace and no earrings.
I chose to make up my lips by wearing red lipstick (something I never do), and no eye make-up.
What do you think? Any other ideas on how to be classy out there?
