I'm glad to hear that you enjoy the blog. <br /><br />I agree with you, I admire girls who know how to be beautiful and keep it simple. I cannot say that I've mastered that, but it is something I strive for. There's something about keeping an outfit simple, but being immaculately groomed that I find very elegant. <br /><br />I love a statement piece- especially a necklace.<br /><br />There is nothing more elegant than having a piece that you treasure and enjoy wearing again and again.Lindsay Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08756634487046300517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-66472676750533950292011-03-24T09:25:36.576-04:002011-03-24T09:25:36.576-04:00I just discovered your blog, and actually I should...I just discovered your blog, and actually I shouldn't read it now because I am at work but I can't stop!<br /><br />I think it's very elegant (oh, it's also in topic :D), chic and simple. Also relaxing, very pleasant to read...<br /><br />For me elegance... mmmh I have many ideas of elegance. <br />I really admire the girls that know how to look beautiful with very simple outfits, because they mastered the art of being glamorous just thanks to their attitude and to just a little particular detail. They are my role models.<br /><br />I find elegant to have healthy and well-brushed hair, simple but spotless make-up and good looking nails. You can also wear just a black t-shirt and jeans then but you'll be looking very good the same.<br /><br />I find elegant to dress simply and add just a statement piece (for example I like statement rings or necklaces)<br /><br />I find elegant to be gentle, polite and wear a sincere smile.<br /><br />I find totally non elegant the compulsive shopping and wearing different things every day, and IT- (-bag, -shoes...) concept. I find elegant who can fall in love with a very good accessory, a handbag or a piece of clothing (maybe buying only that in 6 months)and create their own style around it. It reminds me of my very elegant and stylish grandmother :-)<br /><br />...OK I could go on for ages so better I stop here :D<br /><br />Have a nice day :-)<br /><br />Al<br /><br />-The Red Dot-Alhttp://the-reddot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-13910009339621160352011-03-10T21:35:17.713-05:002011-03-10T21:35:17.713-05:00Fleurette- Thank you for the wonderful suggestions...Fleurette- Thank you for the wonderful suggestions.

I love how you describe elegance, and I fully believe that elegance is something one acquires with time. <br /><br />As for what I find elegant: A woman's need to be alone and be with only herself.Fleurettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06005450822288905796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-46642541900178511702011-03-09T12:55:49.786-05:002011-03-09T12:55:49.786-05:00Ammu- Thank you for your comment!

Agree with you that elegance is very personal. I don't think I look like what people consider elegant but even in my jeans it's something I strive for. <br /><br />Things I find elegant:<br />- Patience<br />- A good meal with friends<br />- A plain silk shirt <br />- Confidenceyanqinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466658131536796827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726508674329469614.post-79317372979778170652011-03-09T05:36:33.731-05:002011-03-09T05:36:33.731-05:00Good manners are always elegant :) As is simplicit...Good manners are always elegant :) As is simplicity.Ammuhttp://somecrazycliff.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.com
