How To Look Like A
Millionaire |
|
|
|
Anyone can sport a
ritzy, Elle Macpherson style jet-set look. Here are a few
secrets on how to look like a million bucks – without
spending a fortune! |
 |
ADJUST YOUR ATTITUDE.
Think good taste, confidence and elegance: None of these costs a
penny, but they project the "wealthy look" in spades. Be sure to
follow these three steps: Project self-confidence, mind your
manners and hold your head high.
STEER CLEAR.
Avoid buying anything with a highly visible logo, or a
knock-off. (If you buy it in a dingy alley, it’s guaranteed to
look fake.)
FLATTER YOUR FIGURE.
If it doesn’t suit
your silhouette, leave it on the rack. Millionaires don’t wear
things that don’t fit well. If it’s a piece you just can’t live
without, have it tailored to fit you perfectly!
SELECT YOUR STORES.
If you love high quality fashions but your pocketbook doesn’t,
shopping at higher end consignment shops will provide the great
styles and fits at a fraction of the price.
KNOW YOUR FABRICS.
Take advantage of the season to treat yourself to exquisite,
natural fabrics like cashmere and silk. These materials look and
feel really luxurious.
FOCUS ON FOOTWEAR.
Shoes really do make a look. A pair of black pumps is a staple.
Fashions boots are also a "must have" for this fall and winter
season.
PLAY THE PART.
Try a jet-setting superstar outfit: jeans, a faux-fur jacket and
heels. Accessorize with a pair of pretty earrings, bracelets,
extra-large sunglasses or a chunky belt. Don’t go overboard with
the bling, though: One or two pieces of jewellery are enough.
INVEST WISELY.
If you treat
yourself to an expensive piece, go for a classic: designer
shoes, a Vuitton bag, Chanel sunglasses . . . Whatever your
pick, wear it with panache!
