Chapter 19. Lady's Accessories
One of the main components in the image of a True Woman is her accessories. Accessories are little things that are not a direct decoration of our appearance, but, despite the fact that we do not wear them like earrings in our ears or like beads on our necks, they nevertheless characterize us much stronger and more powerful than those decorations that what we have on our wrists, fingers, neck, etc.
Such things as a pen, a lighter, or a frame of glasses very accurately indicate our monetary relationship with the world of chosen things. They decorate our aura of well-being, not our body. Although, by the way, the body is the same... Be sure to take this into account.
Make sure that your individual items are never what is usually called “third grade for mass consumption.” It is unacceptable!
If you have golden hands and you can knit yourself a beautiful sweater or sew yourself a wonderful suit - that’s wonderful! This is cool! Wear it for your health! But if at the same time you want to be a Woman with a capital W, then you cannot use cheap perfume or smoke cheap cigarettes with an impossible smell.
Perhaps you don't smoke at all - that's just wonderful! Remarkable from three points of view. First, you certainly maintain your health and appearance better. Secondly, you don’t think about the fact that you constantly smell of cigarette smoke. And the third thing is that you save your money without turning it into smoke, into the air.
As you can see, there is a triple benefit from one fact.
But if you still smoke, choose women's, light cigarettes with a pleasant smell. And be sure to make sure that your lighter looks like an expensive, well-made thing.
Don’t spare money on a bag that accompanies you to “feast, peace and good people” and which you can’t hide from prying eyes. The bag immediately reveals your taste and your attitude towards the value of things. Don’t lose sight of the automatic pen, which you use every day and which should also be with you, always in your bag. Let it also be something not for thirty-five kopecks, but expensive and original.
Pay attention to the frames of your glasses if you wear glasses. It’s better to pay more once, but then all your life the glasses will serve as decoration for you, and not as a reason for your complex. And of course, an extremely necessary item is your cosmetics bag. As well as what is in this bag itself...
Perhaps your life will turn out in such a way that you will never have the means to buy a chinchilla fur coat or a suit from Pierre Cardin (I mean a real suit, from the real Pierre Cardin), but every winter you are somehow forced to wear gloves and your gloves should be “your” gloves. They should not be more expensive than everything else in your wardrobe, but it is better if it is good, high-quality leather, matched to the tone of your coat, your hat, your bag, etc.
There is no point in repeating that these small, secondary things at first glance are necessary for you in your habits; they are the ones who complete your image - a “stylish” Woman, a Woman who is not “simple”. Women different from others.
You can be dressed to the level of the means that you have, it’s a matter of taste, but a good bag, a beautiful, expensive lighter, cigarettes with a pleasant smell, an expensive frame for glasses, an elegant cosmetic bag, good perfume - this is the definition of tone. It is your tone that will create around you the aura of a stylish, carefully groomed woman.
You always have the right to define your own style. Romantic, classic, business, sporty - it doesn’t matter. Which one is nicer to you, more to your taste. And you can choose all your lovely little things in one favorite style.
I don’t argue that this will take time, you will need to solve the financial problem, but there is nowhere to go: you will not be able to give yourself true feminine charm by neglecting stylish little things.
