A Modern Woman's Guide to Elegance

I once read a book by Kathleen Tessaro called Elegance. It became one of my favorite books, and it got me started thinking; What is elegance to a woman?  It is many things encompassed in one word.  But certainly most of all, elegance is that sacred 'something' every woman wishes she had.  We look at pictures of Angelina Jolie, and Cameron Diaz, and we wonder what gives them that knowing little smile.  They look so sure of themselves, and elegant, seemingly without even trying.  How does one achieve that, especially if you can't afford a personal trainer, a therapist, and three nannies?  Different women have different routes to finding their elegance, and some of us get stalled along the way, by life-kids, work, and catching up on sleep.  To some of us elegance may mean a certain air; a way we'd like to carry ourselves, or the way we'd like to be viewed by others.  To others it can mean a feeling of serenity with our bodies, our pride in ourselves.  For all the definitions of elegance, there's no doubt some women know they have it, and some women don't.  For all the single mothers, the working wives, and every woman in between, here are some basic ideas to uncover your elegance.
