[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a Pakistani thirtysomething raised in McLean and moved here when I was 10. I am, as you can imagine, pretty thoroughly assimilated in the UMC NOVA culture. I notice that over the years I have subconsciously adopted the style and aesthetics of white women. What is considered elegant and sophisticated are the looks and styles of rich white women. As I get older I am trying to re-claim my "brown girl beauty" but it is challenging as everyone I know is white and preppy! So, how does a non-white woman aim to look elegant and beautiful while embracing her unique looks and body?[/quote] If you actually look at OPs post, it sounds like she is trying to embrace her multicultural identity. Best not to scold her, but rather support. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything all. OP elegant women come in all colors, vultures etc. The tools that you see an elegant Asian woman use Vs a white woman are interchangeable and universal. OP, with your melanin richer complexion you'll age much better than the standard white woman. 🙂. At least in terms of wrinkles.[/quote] Perhaps..but that does not make you elegant.[/quote]
