How to be Glamorous!

Part II

HOW TO WALK WITH CONFIDENCE:

The best way to make people think you're brimming with self assurance and poise is to strut like a star. Follow these steps to get the best out of your stride:

• Imagine that someone is pulling your head up with a long piece of string, push your shoulders back, and smile.

• Think of a fast paced, lively song that you love and sing that tune on your head, or out loud if you prefer.

• Gently start swinging your arms and walk along to the rhythm of your song, bouncing a little at the knees.

• Remember to smile and wave when heads turn to look your way.

HOW TO DESCEND A STAIRCASE GRACEFULLY:

An important part of the glamour is impressing people, and there's no better way to do that than with a grand entrance. Whether you're arriving at a ball or just trying to wow your friend at school, descending a staircase with style and grace can make a great impression. 

Here are some pointers for making the best entrance ever - and avoiding any embarrassing slips, trips. or falls:

• Pause at the top of the stairs and gaze confidently around the room for a few seconds until everyone turns to look at you.

• Discreetly check the staircase for any obvious hazards or obstacles before you take a step.

• If you are in a long ball gown, make sure you lift up the bottom of your dress so you don't trip.

• Lift up your chin, smile, and then lightly grip the handrail to help you keep your balance.

• Step gracefully down onto the first step, keep smiling, and remember not to look at your feet.

• Walk carefully and steadily down the stairs until you reach the bottom.
