hello welcome to the modern lady I'm
Debra Walton if you're new to the
channel please subscribe I would love
for you to get a new update every time
I've got a video to share and if you're
one of the amazing women already in
support of this community thank you so
much for your subscriptions I really
appreciate and love you all so today I
have a very highly requested video and
I've been so excited to share this with
you I am talking about how to be classy
now if you are familiar with my channel
you know that I typically start my
videos sharing the difference between a
woman and a lady when I am talking about
how to be classy or how to be a lady so
there is a difference between a woman
and a lady every female is a woman but
not every woman is a lady a lady is
defined as a woman who is polite refined
animal spoken in all encounters with
others so today I'm excited to share
with you how to be classy and how to be
a lady now the first tip is to always
use the three golden phrases and if
you've seen my one of my most popular
videos on the channel three words every
lady should know then you probably are
familiar with what I'm going to say but
on a daily basis using please thank you
and you're welcome is important and it's
a part of being classy so using the word
please is appropriate when you are
making a request to ask for something
using the phrase thank you is
appropriate when you are thanking
someone for doing something for you and
using the phrase you're welcome
is appropriate for in response to
someone saying thank you a lot of people
commonly don't use these phrases or
words sometimes will use sounds instead
like
or there's no sound there's just a shrug
so if you want to be classy you will say
please thank you and you're welcome
every day when appropriate the second
tip for how to be classy is to mind your
mouth
a classy lady always thinks before she
speaks so when you are speaking you want
to use proper pronunciation and grammar
when you're writing communication
whether it's in a text message or an
email or even on social media using
proper spelling and grammar is always
important and let's talk about foul
language for a moment I realize a lot of
ladies do want to curse but it's not a
good taste so minding your mouth does
include using other vocabulary words
instead of cursing on a regular basis
and this is going to come up as really
almost like a test if you will in
situations when you get really angry or
really caught off guard and those are
the moments when your true character
will truly shine so that's your
opportunity to use other words in your
vocabulary
instead of foul language the third way
to be classy is offering to help others
and it could be the smallest of gestures
for example if you are walking out of a
store and you see an elderly person
loading a lot of bags or trying to push
a cart you can hold the door open for
them but very small gestures go a long
way and it makes a really big difference
in how you are living your life as a
classy lady
so offering to help others when you can
when you see they need it and when
you're available is definitely a way to
be classy another way to be classy is to
always make every impression a positive
one that doesn't mean that you have to
always be happy and always be higher
energy and cheerful but you can smile
and be cheerful with other people when
you're interacting with them you can be
pleasant and make every impression a
positive one the next way to be classy
is to mind your phone usage now when you
are maybe at a coffee shop at lunch or
even at dinner you are around other
people so if you've had a specific
appointment a schedule a time and date
to meet with a friend or to meet with a
family member or even your husband or
boyfriend you do want to be respectful
of them and actually be in the moment
rather than being on your phone this is
something that's very very common a lot
of people love to live through their
phones live on their phones which is
great
but when you are in the company in the
presence of others you really want to be
respectful and give them your attention
because the text messages and the posts
on social media and the emails can wait
until after you have that quality time
the last way to be classy I will mention
in this video is to dress appropriately
for every occasion most occasions do
have a dress code whether its formal or
informally known and it's important to
dress appropriately so that you can show
up in good taste so for the office
whatever the dress code policies are at
your place of employment you will want
to pay attention to that and dress
appropriately for work likewise if you
are attending a social gathering or an
event such as a gala or a black-tie
affair you do want to show up
appropriately so just paying attention
to the dress codes for different events
that you're attending helps you to show
up and look your best so that you can
really make a positive impression and
always be appropriate for the occasion
now one thing I do want to mention here
is
even if there is no dress code for a
daily activity like going to the grocery
store you do still want to be classy
which means you're not going to leave
their home wearing pajamas or a hair
bonnet or hair scarf you want to look
presentable every time you leave your
home so that doesn't necessarily mean
you have to get dolled up with makeup
and look like you're going to be in a
photoshoot and super glamorous but you
do want to at least be appropriate so
being classy is not about just certain
events or certain times but being classy
is truly about the lifestyle so being
appropriate for all the different
occasions that you have in your club is
ultimately how you can be classy now I
