Well first off a description of me. I'm loud, can get very annoying, immature, outgoing, thrill seeker/dare devil, spontaneous, short-shorts wearing girl with a horrible sense of style. But i really want to be more conservative...you know, like reserved, well styled, lady-like, mysterious, effortless, classy, %26quot;less is more%26quot; and not all in your face kinda girl. I know that you can't change your personality but....i don't know, i get embarrassed by the way i act. And i'm 16 by the way :] so you could imagine. Please, someone must have advice for me!
Girls: How can i be more conservative and lady-like?
I think you'd do well by watching Pretty Woman and My Fair Lady, as both of these movies are about young, boisterous women who face changing their appearance and personality to become more sophisticated. They show a positive way to mix your natural exuberance with etiquette.
Beyond that, changing your clothes is easy. Look for clothing that isn't too revealing or tight. Consider taking a class that will teach you some kind of discipline, whether it's a class in etiquette, ballroom dancing, jazz dance, or horseback riding. All of these things require disciplining your mind and body to succeed which will teach you how to control yourself in other aspects of your life.
Don't forget, a lady is also confident and loves herself. If you're the crazy girl amongst your friends then be proud and learn to harness your naturally fun persona.

lil b - violate that *****_
You can get many books at stores like Barnes and Noble about etiquette and class, or look it up on the internet. Or, just ask yourself %26quot;what would Audrey Hepburn do?%26quot; or Carla Bruni, or any classy lady. Watch some old movies, where women acted more classy and learn from them. Like Breakfast at Tiffanys. As for style, avoid stores like Love Culture and Wet Seal, and get books from the library about Givenchy, and designers, and then when shopping look for clean cut items that resemble those of high fashion.
i was kind of the same way back in middle school.
i would recommend changing your wardrobe slightly. maybe try wearing more skirts and blouses with necklaces and flats. check out places like forever 21 and charlotte rousse next time you're at the mall. they're both very lady-like and still very fashionable. also try toneing down make-up. i'm not sure how much you wear but maybe only wear alittle maskara and blush. that way you can still be outgoing but it's seen more in a %26quot;cute/girly%26quot; kind of way.
everything you say you are , be opposite ? lol but only change yourself if you really really want to change . don't do it because you feel like you have to or should . if you're unhappy the way you are now , then change until you feel like you're perfect . if you want to change your style , pick a few celebrity role models , look at how they dress , then start dressing similar to that . being classy takes practice , you won't just be good at it over night . if you have something obnoxious to say , try keeping it in your head . don't be in everyone's faces . well , good luck ! (:
study ingrid bergman and audrey hepburn
It really sets you apart to have class these days as a woman
most girls speak trashy dress trashy and dance trashy
don't gossip be kind but it's important to not become a snob
just add some of those characteristics to yourself and dismiss the ones you dont like
but dont try to become someone else because originality is much more lady like then being a carbon copy of someone else
