Also standing perpendicular to a mirror, putting your arms out to the sides parallel with your shoulders and pulling them back as far as possible four times for fifteen seconds per day helps, too (tuck your buttox under while you're doing this). A prima ballerina once told me that she would walk around like she had a huge diamond being displayed on her upper chest. Don't hide it: show it off by pulling your head up and arching your back a little!<BR/><BR/>Elizabeth Elliott is perhaps more important, though. I used to hate my mother for saying 'beauty is as beauty does', but I really do appreciate a sweet, able-bodied homely person more than I appreciate an uppity, beautiful model who cannot tie her own shoes (or carry on a decent conversation about things deeper than Ferragano shoes--actually these girls are amusing for a short amount of time). "You can't be truly beautiful on the outside if you're dirty on the inside." (I changed a few words from Mrs. Pearce.)<BR/><BR/>Look up the rivalry of Annie Oakley and Lillian Smith--it could go back to manners and modesty: Annie had them; Lillian allegedly did not (I had to look up Lillian's name: yet I remembered Annie's).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476714640362674936.post-81315205845750418552008-09-23T19:30:00.000-04:002008-09-23T19:30:00.000-04:00I landed here looking for pictures of Grace Kelly'...I landed here looking for pictures of Grace Kelly's hair, and love the picture. I credit my good posture to years of ballet - it's never too late to start, and it's great exercise, especially for those lower body "problem areas".Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118844224601780956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476714640362674936.post-38810912213512496172008-05-08T08:53:00.000-04:002008-05-08T08:53:00.000-04:00I love that picture also!

Hepburn held such a captivating audience and she always looked so modest doing it. I need to have a better posture also. I know that working out makes you stand up straighter because all your muscles are being toned...but who has time for that ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476714640362674936.post-12702507869104960702008-05-06T13:28:00.000-04:002008-05-06T13:28:00.000-04:00I took a charm class in high school...did it work?...I took a charm class in high school...did it work? Well, we read a great book called "Let Me <BR/>A Woman" by Elizabeth Elliot. It is a compilation of letters to her daughter for her wedding day on what it means to not only be a woman, but to be a Godly woman. Being a lady is so much more than make up, finger nail polish, and shopping! I love that picture of Audrey Hepburn! What class! If I could go back in time I would go back to yesteryear! Look forward to your next blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476714640362674936.post-56177808509037977392008-05-05T22:24:00.000-04:002008-05-05T22:24:00.000-04:00I probably shouldn't be giving advice since my pos...I probably shouldn't be giving advice since my posture is terrible, but the best thing that ever happened to me was when I wore a skirt to work. All of a sudden my feet weren't propped up on the desk and I sat up straight.<BR/><BR/>Also, just remembering that you're a daughter of God.Diannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09517246579704472278noreply@blogger.com
