Class Act.....

Hello my Glamorous ladies!I know its been a while! But here I am yet again to Glam up your lives just a teeny bit! Here in NY we've reached a record today 90 degrees in central park!! And I know as the weather heats up we tend to peel off the layers letting our inhibitions go! Honestly more power to ya! But ladies there's such a thing as doing it with class! I know I don't have to tell you this (you are all glamorous in your own right!) but we ALL have friends, or friends of friends who have forgotten what the word class even means and for them I want to pass along some words of wisdom on how to show some skin, loosen your inhibitions while still staying classy and Glamorous at the same time1. Please Please Please ladies keep the skin to a minimum. I like to live by the rule show one and not the other, ie: legs so no chest, Back so no Bust etc..., you get the point! This rule actually applies to ALL seasons....NO ONE (unless your lady Gaga of course!) in the winter should be wearing white spandex, let alone white spandex with slashes all along your stomach, hips, or back...this is NOT Miami this is NY get with it!  (And YES I've seen it in the middle of Feb on someone who ACTUALLY works in styling...sick!) Please keep the same ideas for spring and summer, yes there is such thing as TOO short and such a thing as TOO tight and even I may like to push this envelope (we all like to push buttons) but there's a time and a place for those buttons to be pushed. Which leads me to my next tip:2. KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE: Not every joke, not every outfit and not every topic is for everyone! Please think before dressing, AND speaking. I recently had to have this lesson  reiterated to me by my Grandmother; a former Fashion designer and a FOREVER Galmorologist and the most classy lady I've ever known. On Easter Sunday I really really wanted to wear my fabulous mini puffy skirt instead of my high waisted button down nautical skirt. When I tried on each one for her to see, her words were "the puffy one is beautiful but know your occasion...family Easter dinner is not the right place for it" SHE WAS SO RIGHT! now I'll think twice!! As should you! The same should go for certain topics. We should not be discussing our monthly visitors, or bodily functions during a cocktail party, or a dinner. Keep those topics for intimate phone calls with your bestest glamorettes.3. Yes tis the season to be drinking (spring/summer) But please keep yourselves hydrated and somewhat coherent. No one likes a sloppy drunk and no one likes a friend we have to drop off in bed before its even midnight. Not to say we aren't all victims of the clear devil (vodka) I know I have been! But lets all try to be aware of how much we're downing. And if nothing else think of the CALORIES!4. Stick some soap up that potty mouth!! One of my biggest faults is an extreme potty mouth. I have this awful habit of dropping four letter words in every few sentences. Problem is I HATE it when I hear other sexy divas doing the same! It's a disgusting habit and we ALL need to try to glam up our speaking habits. It's the complete opposite of class! No one ever heard Audrey Hepburn Throwing the F-bomb around! But then again those were the days before the Lindsay Lohans and Brittney Spears. (Those were the good ol' days). Either way it's still not acceptable. Lets vow to stop together.5. Finally, Summer is the time for us to embrace our natural beauty. So please can we chill with the spray tan, and self tanner! why do you want to look orange??? Unless you're doing a cameo on the second season of jersey shore please put your SPF 30 on (protect that unwrinkled ageless skin) and get a light natural tan. Loose the caked on plastic looking makeup and super rainbow bright eye shadow (props for even being able to achieve that level of blue!!) and let your real faces see the light!Ok Ladies I hope you all will pass along these tips to the less fortunate of souls. Theres a Classy Galmorette in all of us, some just need some extra help!xx - M
