[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half white, half Asian.

Elegance to me means aging gracefully (no fillers or botox), dressing cleanly and simply, without heavy makeup or jewelry. Elegance is more about mannerisms and tone (kind, listen before you speak, make eye contact, etc) and how you present yourself. [/quote]

I like this. Im Indian American and honestly not very elegant. My mom looked beautiful in sari, but i don't know how to  put one on myself. She wore simple not expensive clothes and shoes as an everyday uniform and wore her hair in the same way in a clip at the nape of her neck. Despite thinning hair, bad teeth, and wrinkles, she was beautiful to me and everyone who came to know her would call her elegant. I think she simply didn't care too much for frivolous things and aged gracefully. She smiled and laughed and didnt take herself too seriously. She wore huge diamond earrings and lots of gold:) definitely a south asian thing, and not something many White women can pull off (or maybe its just not their style).  [/quote]
