#13 The equestrian style Not only it’s fashionable but it’s also very elegant and certainly classy. It suits every single woman and every shape. The main garments to achieve this style are the beige trousers, the white shirt (or a polo), the blazer and the scarf. And of course let’s not forget the riding boots.

#11 Trench Coats Unfortunately spring hasn’t arrived yet, therefore I still have to wear my trench coat.  Every lady has to have a trench coat, not only it’s practical to wear for those particularly rainy days, but it also is a symbol of elegance, feminism and above all it’s classy. Tips: You can either wear it over a dress or a white shirt and a pair of jeans. With high heels, ballerinas or boots. -IL

Oh May… Well May is finally here which means spring is finally here and summer is almost here! Well at least for some us. I haven’t been posting much lately, because finals are approaching and Law School is driving me insane, but I’ll try to make it up to you. I would also like to thank you for following my blog. Well spring is a time for renewal. Flowers blossom, trees come to life, birds are singing, the sun is shining again and temperature is rising. It means it’s the perfect time to clean out your closet, decorate your room, find new books to read, listen to happy songs, travel… Change your attitude: smile and whatever you do keep it classy! What’s your spring attitude? -IL

#10 Scent... Perfume is your own signature mark, you may never forget to wear some. I would rather forget to wear my pearls… A scent is a distinctive smell that defines you, that is why many women only wear one kind of perfume throughout their whole life, it’s their signature.  Tips: You have to be careful with perfume, first of all you should wear a perfume that suits your age, there are some scents that are very mature (as for Chanel n°5). Strong scents are more appropriated to more mature women. You should always try some on your wrists before you buy it. The scent may be different from one to another, since it reacts differently with each one’s skin.  How to apply? The perfect way to apply for it to last longer is to apply on each side of the neck, on your wrists and right below your ears. You may also apply on your hair ends. I’m a very classical woman, therefore I wear on a usual basis: J’adore de Dior, Coco Mademoiselle (eau de toilette) de Chanel and for the summer I like to wear Bronze Goddess from Estée Lauder.  What’s your favorite? -IL
