because many times we think that

something fits perfectly but we go to

sit down and we realize that it's tight

in kind of all of the wrong places

another trick is that you can cut your

hello everyone welcome back to the

channel I am ecstatic that you are here

again for another video with me if you

are a returning subscriber you like my

videos you comment you engage with me

special person going out of your way to

just send somebody love I keep saying

this over and over again but it just

baffles me at how kind you all are if

you like my content please make sure to

share it with a friend it is actually

one of the ways that helps us as a small

youtube channel grow if you are new here

I wanted to introduce myself my name is

Cynthia I'm 25 years old I always say

the same spiel I am married and I have a

three dogs children to come so subscribe

and then find out all that lovely stuff

when it happens I make videos on a

femininity homemaking

living has a high value woman and I

sprinkle in some etiquette for every

season a fall and a good video like I

said in my past video is coming up

shortly and I also share some coffee

with you and we talked about some rather

controversial issues that define women

and our roles in society today so we

talked about before the importance of

posture having good posture in order to

communicate elegance and femininity I

also talked about how you can walk like

a model in a feminine and classy

ladylike way so today we're gonna put

all the pieces of the puzzle together

and I'm so excited to share with you how

to properly sit because many of us don't

realize that we spend most of our days

of sitting so sitting in a way to exude

class and femininity is a way that you

can really level up in terms of your

general aesthetic I guess so without

further ado let's get in to the

easy-peasy

yet very important principles on how to

sit in a ladylike and a feminine way the

first thing I want to comment to you

about is to keep in mind where you are

going and what you are going in to be

wearing so try to avoid skin tight

fabrics that are short or shorts that

are going to ride up as you sit down and

do a sitting test in the change room

when you are at the store buying set

item because a many times

think that something's fix perfectly but

we go to sit down and we realize that

it's tight in kind of all of the wrong

places another trick is that you ten put

your hand this sounds weird but my mom

always told me to do this and I was

always embarrassed as a child to do this

put your hands down your garment that

you're about to purchase to ensure that

there's enough space for your hand to

get there if there's enough space for

your hand to fit there usually you know

that it is not too tight now let's

proceed into how you are going to

descend into sitting in your chair you

always want to make sure that your chest

is elevated you don't want to look

towards the floor and is sit like so you

want to make sure that you are keeping

your shoulders and your chest up and you

are reaching a slightly back to make

sure that you are not going to fall on

the floor as you are squatting it down

gently to sit in your chair another

trick that I learned through the hatch

injury because people are very nervous

when they come in for the interview in

front of the panel and they have just

one chair you want to always make sure

before you're sitting down then your

calves are touching the chair this is an

easy way to not look back like this

before and you are going a to a sit down

it is an elegant way to exude confidence

by knowing and reassuring yourself that

you are not going to flop on the floor

my dog is joining us for this video so I

apologize he really just likes the

spotlight and he's very tired

so I'm going to reach back keep my chest

elevated I have touched my calves to the

chair so I know it's behind me I'm going

to gently reach back and sit down now

let's talk about your knees you want to

always make sure if you want to sit with

in a ladylike way that your knees are

together you also want to make sure that

your calves are together basically the

two V's are always together you don't

want to sit with your legs open simply

because we do not want to expose our

private parts enough said about that and

let's get in to showing you the

different ways that you can sit make

sure always that your legs are at a

rather 90 or 80 degree angle a

misconception is that you can put your

feet underneath your chair like this but

as you can tell by the video this really

degrades my feminine or while I'm

sitting really it doesn't look that put

together so make sure that you have a 90

slash base if we had 90 to 80 degree

angle with your legs out in front of you

one of the easiest ways to sit is to

have of course your legs stuck together

tilt your legs to one side or the other

and of course maintain your posture as

you're sitting you always want to try

not to slouch in your chair you want to

make sure that there is at least a fist

length between your back and the chair

if you want to know more of that posture

you can visit my posture video on how

you can apply these principles while you

are sitting I will link that video above

and down below the next thing that I

want to bring up is how you can cross

your legs if you choose not to sit in

this manner with your legs to one side

or the other and you really want to take

it up a notch by crossing your legs you

can cross your legs at your ankles like

so one ankle behind the other remaining

in that type of tilted position and same

thing from the other side now this might

be the easiest way actually to sit for

us Americans which we see everywhere and

we tend to sit with their legs across

like this but this really isn't proper

etiquette nor is it very ladylike

actually because the proper way to cross

your legs one me over the other if

actually to do that same leg stuck

together motion from one side to the

other by bringing your legs over like

this one side

other side you pick the side that is

most comfortable for you when getting up

of course you want to uncross your legs

would like to keep them rather together

and all you have to do if you also need

this

you can push off of your chair a little

bit keep your chest elevated and then

stand up I would love to know if you

have some extra tips on how you can sit

in a feminine and ladylike way leave

your comments down below don't forget to

like this video and stay tuned for next

week because I am working on some

amazing videos that I think that you

will elect because they are requested in

one form of thing or the other and I am

just so overjoyed to be able to have

this opportunity to connect with you on

this wonderful platform I hope to see

you in Monday's video and wishing you

the best weekend ever
