Do you want to highlight your femininity? If you really want to be a lady, you need to think more traditionally, try to be more sophisticated and polite, and behave accordingly. To become a true embodiment of femininity, follow our tips.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Look Feminine

1. 1 Wear the right clothes. Choose beautiful, not too revealing clothing that suits you and fits your figure. Give preference to skirts over trousers or jeans - this will immediately make you more feminine. For example, a skirt and blouse ensemble complemented by a matching belt and ballerinas will suit you. Don't wear a super short mini. The best length is slightly above the knee: this is modest and appropriate in most situations. Don't get hung up on girly colors like pink or light blue if black, navy or brown suits you. A pencil skirt is an incomparable classic, while a pleated skirt is comfortable and cute. If you are accustomed to walking in jeans for years, in a skirt you will feel like a completely different person, stylish and elegant, especially if you find yourself the only girl in a skirt among colleagues or girlfriends dressed in jeans.
   • Dresses (tight or with a full skirt and belt) look wonderful.
   • Do not walk with bare feet if you are not on vacation; wear tights. Go for classic sheer tights without patterns. Black or tan is also a great choice. You can show off the beauty of your legs with a skirt, so don't wear tight, opaque tights.
   • If you don't like heels, wear low heels. The main thing is to find a simple and elegant model.
   • You don't have to look like you just got out of bed. Don't wear shapeless, baggy items that hide your figure. Whatever you wear, it should be clear from you that you thought about your image, and did not put on the first thing that came across in a hurry.

   Balance your look with feminine pieces. Tannya Bernadette, professional stylist, says: “For me, femininity is defined by color and cut. I can wear a loose top, but to balance it and make it more feminine, I need heels, a colored accent, or lots of embellishments. Femininity can also mean prints and floral designs or pointed low-heeled shoes. It really depends on how you combine things with each other. "

   
   
2. 2 Do light makeup. This step is optional, but it will help you look a little more feminine. Red or pink lipstick and neutral eyeshadow can help create a feminine look. But remember, you can do without makeup. Use makeup only if you want to. If not, so be it.
   • If you are totally against makeup, use a moisturizing lip balm to keep them soft.
3. 3 Accessories. In addition to clothing and makeup, you also need to find the right accessories.You don't have to buy too many different accessories - just a few key pieces can help tie your look together and make you more feminine. Here's what you can use:
   • beautiful silk scarf;
   • pearl earrings or other stud earrings;
   • beautiful bezel;
   • hair clips-buckles;
   • several thin silver bracelets;
   • rings, but they should not be too thick or coarse;
   • simple and cute necklace;
   • and, of course, do not forget about the smile - it will give you confidence and uniqueness!
4. 4 Love every inch of your body. The body is what makes you feminine, so how can you be feminine if you are not taking on your feminine form? The female body naturally has a higher percentage of adipose tissue than the male body, so do not give up your forms. On the other hand, loving your body means taking care of it, so watch your diet and health. Luckily, you don't have to look like a model to be healthy.
   • Loving every inch of your body does not mean flaunting it at every opportunity. It means loving your appearance and feeling comfortable in your own skin.
   • Don't feel like you can't exercise because it's not for a lady. On the contrary, doing yoga, dancing, running or swimming will bring you closer to your feminine side and love your body even more.
5. 5 Take some time to look after your appearance. You don't have to shower for two hours every day or do your hair for an hour, just try to keep you looking and feeling clean and smelling fresh. If you go somewhere without taking a shower after your workout, it won't be very feminine.
   • You should never look like you were going in a hurry. Never dye or comb your hair in front of your friends because you ran out of time to do it beforehand.
6. 6 Use perfume or scented lotion. If you want to look like a lady, then you need to smell like a lady. Apply some perfume to your neck area, or rub some scented lotion into your neck or hands. Remember that a light touch is enough - you don't want to torture anyone with a strong scent.

Method 2 of 3: Act like a lady

1. 1 Be graceful. It is believed that women are naturally more graceful than men. Of course, there are always exceptions, and it's up to you whether you use your gracefulness to express your femininity or not. However, many women feel more feminine when they make smooth movements rather than sharp movements. And of course you have to look at the situation. You can be tough on the volleyball court or at the shooting range and suave in the bar or bedroom. There is no rule that you have to be graceful (feminine) all the time.
   • To be graceful, wear nice shoes that are comfortable for you to walk in. If you want to wear heels but don't know how to wear them, practice first at home in front of the mirror before showing the world your new look.
2. 2 Learn to dance. Dance is about developing the body, and through dance you can always find ways to highlight your femininity. Belly dancing, for example, emphasizes the natural curves of a woman's body. A pair dance (such as salsa or waltz) will make you feel more feminine, because such dances are built on the traditional differences between men and women - the man leads, and the woman follows and makes smooth, extravagant movements.
   • Being feminine means feeling comfortable enough in your body to rock out on the dance floor. You don't have to be a professional to be able to feel the music and enjoy what you do.
3. 3 Be fun. Let's get rid of the thought that to be feminine is to be perfect and divine.In those moments when grace is lacking and you fall flat in the middle of the room, the real test of your femininity is your ability not to take everything seriously! It is believed that taking life too seriously is not very feminine and generally unhealthy. So more often smile, flirt, tease others and be naughty. Have fun! After all, being feminine is about feeling at ease. You cannot feel relaxed if you are too tough, sullen, and serious, so be light-hearted and fun.
   • Flirting is an integral part of a woman. Don't feel like you shouldn't flirt just because you're trying to be feminine.
4. 4 Be confident in yourself. This is another important step towards femininity. Anyone would agree that it is very important to learn to love yourself. Having confidence will not only make you more feminine intellectually and physically, but it will also help you become more independent. Never lose faith in yourself.
   • To become confident, you need to master the sign language of a confident person. Walk with your head held high, smile and look straight ahead, not at the floor.
   • Being confident doesn't mean being arrogant. You don't need to brag about your accomplishments in order for people to understand that you are confident in yourself.
5. 5 Walk more femininely. If you want your gait to be more feminine, then when you walk, you need to move your hips more than your shoulders, take light steps instead of stomping, and move gently from place to place. To be truly feminine, you need to move smoothly, not rush headlong. If you need to rush, then try to look calm when you take quicker short steps to get to the right place.
6. 6 Show concern. If you want to be feminine, then you need to know how to care for someone - whether your boyfriend is sick, your dog hurt, or your best friend needs a vest to cry. Be prepared to serve chicken broth, take someone's temperature, or make them feel comfortable and cared for. A feminine woman does not stand passively when there is someone nearby who needs help, and she immediately gets down to business when someone needs to be courted.
   • This does not mean that you need to focus all your energy on caring for other people. The point is that you have to be ready to show concern at the right time.
7. 7 Take good care of your manners. If you want to be feminine, then you must be able to behave at the table and in society. This means that while eating, you cannot put your elbows on the table, you need to talk affably with others, even if you have a bad day, do not slouch, when sneezing, cover your mouth not with your hand, but with a handkerchief, and you need to behave in such a way that this serves as an example for the rest. Here are some more important points to be aware of:
   • If you are having lunch with someone, be sure to say: "Please pass the chicken", and do not stretch yourself across the table, violating the personal space of the other person.
   • Find a good way to express something negative. Instead of saying: "Shut up already!" - say: "Could you lower your voice?"
   • Try not to burp in public. When you reach a certain age, burping in public will no longer be funny. If this happens by accident, just say “Sorry,” or “Excuse me,” but don’t try to do this if you want to impress your friends or just make them laugh. Ladies don't do that.
   • Don't roll your eyes or be rude when someone says something you don't want to listen to.

Method 3 of 3: Use the Right Words

1. 1 Talk like a lady. To be feminine, you don't have to swear like a shoemaker, yell to get what you want, and talk so loudly that everyone around you can hear you.A feminine woman knows how to get her message across while remaining polite, cool, delicate and benevolent. Speak quietly, draw on words, and express your thoughts as eloquently as possible. Say "It's a little chilly today" instead of "My butt is freezing!" To sound more feminine when you express your thoughts.
   • You don't have to change your thoughts or topics of conversation to be feminine. You just need to reconsider the way they are expressed.
2. 2 Give genuine compliments. You don't have to give people fake compliments to be feminine. At the same time, you should be able to say something sweet and pleasant to the person so that he feels special and important. You can say something as simple as, “I like your dress. It fits your eyes beautifully, "or," You play the piano so well. How long have you been playing? " Show a genuine interest in the person and find a way to show them that you are really paying attention.
   • No need to go out of your way. Just compliment when you're in a good mood.
3. 3 Try not to brag. If you want to be feminine, then you shouldn't brag about your accomplishments, talk about how beautiful you look, or show off at all. A truly feminine girl is confident enough in her looks and abilities to be humble and let the people around her notice how wonderful she is. But you don't have to be so humble that you can't accept a compliment or talk about your accomplishments. Just try not to do anything that might sound like bragging.
   • A truly feminine girl doesn't need to show off to receive a compliment.
4. 4 Be polite. A feminine girl is not rude, sweet and benevolent to the people around her. Even if the person you don't like is next to you, don't show your hostility. Just smile, be polite, and limit your interactions with him as much as possible. A feminine girl says please and thank you when needed.
   • Being polite also means speaking on polite topics. Do not talk about anything too vulgar, do not swear too much, and do not bring up irrelevant topics in a motley company.
5. 5 Be responsive. A feminine woman has compassion for other people, knows how to empathize and say good things when she tries to help someone. Learn to say, "I'm sorry you feel this way," "I can't imagine how difficult it is for you," or "Please let me know if you need my help." A feminine woman understands when someone is upset, be it her dear friend or a small child. She knows what needs to be done to make a person better.
   • The moment you speak comforting words, you should behave accordingly. Don't be afraid to hug someone or use sign language to show empathy if the situation calls for it.

Tips

• Femininity is strong, and it has always been. Show the world how strong you can be while remaining feminine!
• Each has masculine and feminine traits. You can be effeminate in one, for example, you enjoy getting nails or makeup, but masculine in another, because you enjoy playing sports or watching sports. But for most people, one thing usually predominates.
• Always wear loose or styled hair.
• Behaving somewhat girly is completely normal.
• Don't overdo it with makeup. Many people actually like the more natural look.
• Change your hairstyles. Today you can braid your hair, tomorrow you can pin your hair into a bun, the day after tomorrow you can make soft curls, and so on.
• Being feminine doesn't mean acting like a princess. This means presenting yourself in the best possible light and not being overly effete.
• Make eye contact and don't be shy, especially when talking. However, it is not worth staring and gazing continuously. A natural, relaxed gaze helps heighten romantic feelings between people in relationships, and between friends and family members, feelings of intimacy and security. But you shouldn't show despair with your eyes.
• When you're nervous, take a few deep breaths and start over if you get confused. Some people find it difficult to talk to others without getting lost in thought. If you notice this in someone you are talking to, advise the person to do breathing exercises to calm them down, and be sure to note that you are not judging it.

Warnings

• All of these tips are more appropriate for Western cultures. There are other cultures in the world that recognize more than two genders.
• Different places have different ideas about female and male traits. Some cultures even have a "third" gender.
