7 things that are making you look lower class, including a common beauty trend – but you can fix in seconds
Plus, three easy expert-approved tips to look chic on a budget DRAB TO FAB 7 things that are making you look lower class, including a common beauty trend – but you can fix in seconds MANY may wrongly assume you need to fork out a fortune to look chic and elegant. But that's not necessarily the case - and sometimes, you can actually achieve the very opposite, an elegance coach recently warned. 2 According to the whizz, even a hefty price tag of the mini dress won't help achieving a chic impression Credit: Tiktok/@ladyblue_official 2 As well as urging to steer clear of tattoos and bling jewellery, the elegance coach advised to give popular designer bags a miss Credit: Tiktok/@ladyblue_official From skimpy dresses and a common beauty trend, there are seven style faux pas that don't do you any favours if you want to appear classy, elegance whizz Lady Blue revealed. According to the style pro, who boasts a whopping 1million followers on her page, rocking a tight mini dress will make you look lower class - and even the price tag won't help achieving a chic impression. ''It can be a very expensive designer dress - but it looks very low class. ''All these ladies in Monaco and Palm Beach wearing short dresses and high heels look like they work there just to be able to afford those bags and dresses,'' she shared her brutal verdict in the now-viral clip. According to the elegance pro, there are also three popular beauty trends you should be avoid unless you want to appear lower class. One of them, Lady Blue warned, was rocking mega long nail extensions with lots of bling. Sure, the intricate design may have set you back loads - but in her eyes, ''it looks so incredibly tacky''. Another trend that's loved by many across the world but will give you a ''cheap'' vibe are huge eyelash extensions, the whizz went on in the video. ''So much money, time and discomfort just to look worse. All these ladies are so much prettier without those lashes.'' Is your body covered in ink? It's bad news, as the TikTok-famous guru also savaged body art. Woman shocks with outfit that shows 'zero class' as she walks down the beach promenade with one butt cheek fully out Lady Blue said: ''It's definitely not cheap to get it done in reputable places and from good artists. ''But it still overall downgrades the look.'' Meanwhile, there are also a few things you may wish to declutter from your wardrobe, including mainstream designer bags and wallets - and big brands like YSL are also a no-go. According to the expert, these ''really show the lack of personal taste and style if you need to rely on logos to look upscale''. How to look chic on a budget Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger, and beauty journalist Samantha Silver revealed how you can make your outfits elevated without spending hundreds of pounds. Don't ever spend on designer denim: River Island ''always has such a great selection of fashion-forward jeans that follow the current trends''. The high street retailer offers a great range of sizes to fit UK 6 - UK 18, and three leg lengths - and prices start from an affordable £25. There are no rules for jewels: ''Pick up something at a car boot sale, or charity shop, scroll on Vinted & eBay, snap up something from the clothing section in your local supermarket when doing the food shop or check out high street clothing stores.'' Don't forget the pre-loved sites: With a rising number of second-hand sites, such as Vinted and Depop, there's no excuse for not buying - or selling - pre-loved garments. Gemma, for instance, has managed to get her hands on chic Chanel sunnies for a mere £17. As well as carefully re-thinking your choice of bags, the guru also urged to ditch mega sparkly watches and ''any jewellery that is big and shiny''. Whatever you've spent on these accessories will end up looking like you've ordered it from the China-based marketplace Shein, she warned. Instead, Lady Blue advised to stick to more dainty items that look ''a lot more chic''. Last but certainly not least, you may wish to donate any T-shirts with brand logo on them - as you're essentially just advertising them ''for free''. ''I am all for the things that look chic and elevated but don't cost an obscene amount of money. ''I don't mind paying extra for the quality, the materials, for the pay for the workers. ''I will never overpay for the logos and the illusion of luxury.'' 'HUGE difference between old & new money' Since being uploaded on the platform under the username @ladyblue_official, the video has taken the internet by storm, winning the whizz more than 2million views. As over 108k people gave it a like, a further 651 flooded to comments to share their thoughts. One said: ''Ughh- the nails and the eyelashes!! YES!!'' Someone else chimed in: ''There's a HUGE difference between old and new money. ''I used to work in a luxury jewellers and the one thing I was always told was people with real wealth never feel like they have to be a walking billboard for brands.'' A third shared their brutal opinion on another viral trend, writing: ''Labubu on bags looks cheap too! Very classless.''

River Island's stylish Taylor Swift-inspired dress can be worn on a budget
Taylor Swift fans have been buzzing this week as the chart-topping singer revealed her 12th studio album is on its way. Speaking on her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason's popular podcast, New Heights, on Wednesday night, Taylor announced her new record is titled The Life Of A Showgirl. We know this forthcoming 'Showgirl' era will feature a vibrant orange and green theme, and the official Taylor Swift shop is already whetting fans' appetites with pre-orders, showcasing an aesthetic of a warm, autumnal orange glow sprinkled with glitter. In celebration of her impending album, several fashion retailers have slashed prices on their orange and green attire. For example, River Island has marked down a range of orange shirts, tops, dresses and shoes. The sequin orange dress looks the same as the TS12 padlock (Image: River Island) One particular garment that perfectly mirrors Swift's sparkly orange padlock has seen a significant price drop. The high-street retailer's Orange Sequin Embellished Slip Midi Dress was originally priced at €115, but it can now be snapped up for just €42, reports the Mirror. The dress is adorned with sequins throughout, creating a glittery effect reminiscent of the promotional art for 'TS12'. Its bright shade of orange is also a perfect match. The slip dress ends just above the ankles and features a cowl neckline. Sizes range from a UK size six to a 16. The model sporting the Orange Sequin Embellished Slip Midi Dress in the online images pairs the frock with black strappy heels, a chunky gold bracelet and gold earrings. If you're hoping to mirror Taylor Swift's newest album aesthetic, there are loads of other orange and green pieces to explore beyond River Island, including this Never Fully Dressed sequin tank top co-ord that's on offer at ASOS for €114.99. New Look is stocking this AX Paris Green Printed Slit Hem Maxi Dress for £48 (€55.80). If you fancy River Island's €42 Orange Sequin Embellished Slip Midi Dress, it can be purchased online and posted to your home for an additional €4.99. Though, postage is complimentary on purchases over €75. The Orange Sequin Embellished Slip Midi Dress was €115 but is now €42 (Image: River Island) There aren't any customer reviews for the dress on River Island's site, but for those eager for shopper opinions, browsing through feedback on Trustpilot might prove useful. On the platform, one customer who gave a five-star rating commented: "Love River Island staff members and managers are so helpful and friendly l love their clothing and accessories brillant store hope the survive as the best shop on high street for great quality clothing shop nowhere else." Another commented: "River island shoes and clothes are true to size and I only shop from River Island. I shop from River island at least twice a month." A third added: "Great range of quality clothing. Sizing is accurate and store staff are always helpful. Love shopping here!". Nevertheless, some disappointed customers voiced their concerns. One penned: "Sizing is awful! ! ! I'm a size 10 normally so I ordered some high waisted shorts in a 10. Couldn't get them to do up at all! ! Ordered a 12 and the exact same thing! ! Went straight back." The dress is adorned with sequins throughout, creating a sparkly effect reminiscent of the promotional art for 'TS12' A second noted: "Products arrived in good order but I paid for a specific delivery day and this was not honoured." A third alleged: "I used to like River Island but the last couple of times I've ordered clothes they have been sent stuffed into bags that are too small for the items and have had strong smells." Yet not all reviews are negative. Another satisfied customer remarked: "Overall, I'm loving shopping at River Island this season-great style, great service, great vibe." One more mentioned: "I always have a positive experience in-store but have recently also used their online service and ordered to collect in store. The items arrived promptly and you can return easily to the store. Really pleased." Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest news from the Irish Mirror direct to your inbox: Sign up here.
