Becoming a classier woman requires a combination of inner qualities and external behaviors. Here are ten steps you can take to become a classier woman:
Practice good manners: Being polite and courteous in social interactions is an important aspect of being classy. Use “please” and “thank you” liberally, and be mindful of others’ feelings and needs.
Cultivate a sophisticated personal style: Dress in a way that is timeless and elegant, rather than following fleeting fashion trends. Invest in high-quality pieces that will last for years and flatter your body type.
Learn to speak well: Speak clearly, confidently, and eloquently. Use correct grammar and avoid slang or vulgar language.
Develop your emotional intelligence: Emotional intelligence involves understanding and managing your own emotions, as well as empathizing with others. Develop this skill by practicing self-awareness, active listening, and empathy.
Be well-read: Reading widely will expand your knowledge and vocabulary, and help you become a more interesting and informed conversationalist.
Prioritize self-care: Taking care of yourself physically and mentally is important for your overall well-being, and will also help you radiate confidence and grace.
Practice good posture: Stand up straight, with your shoulders back and head held high. Good posture not only looks better, but also improves your breathing and circulation.
Be punctual: Arriving on time shows respect for other people’s schedules and demonstrates that you value their time.
Learn to handle conflict with grace: Conflict is a natural part of human relationships, but it’s important to approach it with maturity and diplomacy. Listen to the other person’s perspective, and express your own views calmly and respectfully.
Treat others with kindness and respect: Above all, being classy involves treating others with kindness and respect, regardless of their background, status, or opinions. Treat others the way you would like to be treated.
2. Folding clothes
- Sweaters: Sweaters should be kept folded in your dresser. You can fold sweaters and put them on a shelf if you have more room in your closet. Hanging them can cause the fabric to stretch out, resulting in tiny bumps in the shoulders that can ruin the shape of your sweater.
- Activewear and jeans: Anything you wear to the gym, such as yoga pants, workout tops, or activewear, should be folded. Keyser warns that when hanged, these can become wavy and stretched out.
3. Stacking clothes
- Knitwear: Shelves at the top of closets are a great way to make use of space that would otherwise be wasted above clothes rails. Use shelves instead when storing bulky items like chunky knitwear and sweaters that could get snagged or stretched if hung on a hanger. When stacked in a pile, thicker items fold easily, do not crease or lose their shape, and are easier to access than when tucked away in drawers.
