new day, new you

Reinvent Yourself: Become the Most Feminine + Elegant Version of You

 

First of all, I’m going to make a quick assumption.  I’m assuming because you’ve clicked on this post you’re currently feeling in a bit of a lull and you’re wanting to reinvent yourself and become the best version of yourself – a feminine and elegant lady living a luxurious lifestyle. 

 

Am I right?

 

I know exactly how you feel.  I too have always lusted after a luxurious lifestyle, living on my own terms and being the most feminine, elegant and classy version of myself.   

 

However, this has not always been the case.  In the past few years I have made many attempts to reinvent myself and become the woman I wanted to be and live my dream life.  But, it wasn’t until earlier this year when a sudden change in circumstances forced me to re-evaluate where I currently was (unemployed and wishing for change) and where I wanted to go (living life on my own terms). 

 

Being placed in a position where I had no option but to stop dreaming and start taking action really was the kick I needed!  From that moment, I began to get really serious about creating and living the life I had always dreamed of.

 

Now, it’s Tuesday morning and I’m sat on the sofa writing this post to you with the intention to help and inspire you to reinvent yourself and start living your dream life. 

 

Of course, I wouldn’t recommend doing anything drastic and putting yourself under unnecessary stress like quitting your job, but if you’re serious about wanting change, sometimes you just have to take massive action. 

 

So, if you’re looking to reinvent yourself and become more classy, elegant and feminine all whilst living a luxurious lifestyle, then I am here to help!

Why and How?

This first step is so important to really understand why you want to reinvent yourself and what changes you are looking to make.  It will set the foundation for all the later steps and will give you guidance when you actually start to implement the changes you want to see. 



 

With that being said, I’d encourage you to spend some time, preferably alone and in quiet, to ask yourself why you are seeking change and to write this down either on your phone or in your journal. 

 

Write down as many reasons as you can for why you are wanting to reinvent yourself.  Try to really dig deep with this exercise.  The best way to really get to the heart of your ‘why’ is for each reason you write down, ask yourself ‘why’ again. 

 

For example, I wanted to change so I could be happier. Whilst happiness is one of the best reasons to do something, from asking myself “why?” again and diving deeper, the real reason is because I want to lead a fulfilling life on my own terms. 

 

Perhaps you want; to become the best version of yourself, to live a fulfilled and happy life, to spend more time with your family, to attract a partner etc.

 

Next, consider how these changes will affect your life.  How will reinventing yourself improve your current situation? How will you feel once you’ve implemented these changes?  

Forgive yourself and move on

It’s really important to acknowledge that up to now, your personality and the woman you have become has all been influenced by your experience of life so far.  

 

Perhaps in the past, you haven’t acted or handled yourself in the same way as you would do now and that’s totally fine.  It’s important to forgive your past self and move on. Acknowledge you’re no longer that person and this is the start of the new you.  Don’t feel guilty for letting go of the old you if it no longer serves you.

 

Pink journal

Define your new life

Now, you know why you want to reinvent yourself, you should consider what these changes will actually look like for you. 

 

In the same journal, or notes section on your phone, describe in as much detail as you can how your new life will look.  

 

Start by asking yourself, “If I was living my best life, what would it look like?”  For a complete description, you may way want to include these areas:

  • Daily routines
  • Career / business
  • Family and personal life 
  • Relationships with friends, colleagues etc
  • Spiritually 
  • Finances 
  • Your physical appearance 
  • Your personality traits 
  • Health and fitness 
  • Hobbies and past times (including what TV shows you watch, music you listen to and who you follow on social media)
  • And anything else you can think of! 

 

I also found it helpful to keep my journal close by over a couple of days so whenever I thought of something else I could quickly add it to my description.   

 

You’ll be surprised by how much you can miss, even if you spend an hour on just this exercise alone. So, please don’t feel the need to rush just for the sake of completion. 



 

Reinvent your new life

Now you’re clear on why you want to reinvent yourself, and what your new life will look like, it’s time to put the prep work into place! 

 

Before I actually made any changes, I created a vision board and mission statement so I could review them on a daily basis and keep aligned with my goals.  

 

You can create a vision board in Pinterest and set the board to secret so you’re the only one who sees it.  Mine is filled with my goals, inspirational quotes and images of the type of clothes and makeup the new me would wear. 

 

Your mission statement is pretty much a summary of your above description but written as if it’s your current reality, rather than a plan to change.  They’re super simple to create but are so powerful when done correctly.  

 

Your statement might start:

 

I am so happy now I’m living my dream life.  I am elegant, classy and feminine and this shows through my style and personality. 

 

I’d suggest you read through your statement and review your vision board at least twice a day to make sure you’re always taking at least a baby step in the right direction and to inspire you to keep going.  

 

After all, it’s easy to slump back into your bad habits rather than to keep up change, especially, if you wan to lose weight or eat healthier as a part of your new life description. 

Take action! 

Plan how you’re going to show up as an elegant and feminine lady, starting today!

 

Start by reviewing your dream life description and making a list of any changes you need to make or any steps which will help you live your dream life.  

 

Try not to feel discouraged if this is a longer list than you had initially thought.  Be positive that you now have a super clear idea of the steps you need to take to achieve your dream life. 

Do something today!

Is there anything you can do right now to bring about change? If so, go do it! 

 

Perhaps you can change into your luxurious and elegant loungewear, cook yourself a healthy meal with all fresh ingredients or have a quick tidy up around your home. 

 

The key here is, don’t waste time.  You’re more likely to achieve your goals, if you just get going.

 

Next, what are the adjustments or changes you can make to your daily routine to achieve your goal?  If the new, feminine you wears natural makeup, extend your morning routine so you can do your makeup. 

 

Lastly, don’t forget to add in time for self-care and personal development so you can really get to know the new you.  I found it helpful to read and listen to audio books about femininity and creating your own luxurious lifestyle for some added inspiration and motivation.

Conclusion

Don’t forget, any type of change does take time and know that it’s unlikely you’re going to come up with a plan today that will define the rest of your life.  It’s actually more likely that it’ll change slightly as life around you changes too. 

 

Hopefully, now you’re much more clearer on how you can reinvent yourself to become an elegant and feminine woman living a luxurious lifestyle.
