Fashion expert Evelina Khromtchenko managed to hold Tefi award twice. Channel One Russia “Fashion verdict” TV-show won the prestigious TV-award in the category “Entertainment program “Lifestyle” in 2008 and 2015. After all these years Evelina noticed that some of the simple rules have to be repeated again and again.
1. You shouldn’t worry about what people think about you. Most of them don’t really care.
2. People are not that attentive to notice your deep inner world. Everything will go faster if your appearance will give a hint at the delights of your soul.
3. You shouldn’t be ashamed of misunderstand something in fashion. Don’t be shy to ask your questions.
4. It is very annoying when people with no experience and no education in fashion begin to insist that their narrow views should be a guiding star for all humanity.
5. Don’t waste your nerves competing with the glossy pages it-girls – you will definitely lose the fight.
6. Don’t try to buy the same jeans or something else that some girl next door has. You are different person.
7. Stop adhering the principle “First I’ll lose some weight and then I’ll dress up”. Dress up today because there is a chance that you might never lose weight.
8. You shouldn’t’ be angry with top-models because they’re more beautiful than you are. Moreover, you shouldn’t leave a comment on Instagram – “OMG! She is so ugly!” or “Could somebody buy her food!”. That is an obvious demonstration of your jelousy.
9. If you’re 50 years old and your size is Russian 50-th, you can’t dress as 25 year old skinny girl does. It is weird that I have to repeat it again and again.
10. You should’t tell to chef how to cook, or to teacher how to teach and to fashion expert how to dress up.
11. If you go to bakery on the corner not bothering to change wrinkled clothes or to wash your hair there is a high risk that you will meet… everybody.
12. Beautiful and confident gait can save the most disastrous outfit.
13. Politeness gives you class.
14. If you’re saving money for someone by refusing buying new clothes for yourself, you can be sure that they will say: “No one asked you!”. Or they won’t appreciate your effort. The conclusion: live for yourself and others will catch up.
15. Stop buying clothes for the girl you were 25 years ago. Have courage to look into the mirror and to face the truth.
16. If you have some doubt about your dress, think what your grandmother would have said about it.
17. If you don’t have money for expensive face creams, you should sleep 8 hours a day. And if you have enough money – sleep 8 hours a day.
18. If it’s possible try not to cry because tears really spoil your skin around your eyes.
19. Stop buying dozens of cheap T-shirts with funny pictures and phrases. It’s only you who finds it funny.
20. It makes no sense to be jealous of those who have more money. Believe me, they have the same problems with the wardrobe that you have. And more effectively will solve the problems the person who is ready to deal with them and not the one who has more money.
21. The joy of a beautiful silhouette in the mirror is much more than joy of the pizza piece. If you have already bought a pizza – throw it away. If you have not bought it – don’t dare to spend money on it.
22. You should regularly eat healthy food to lose weight and you should regularly visit a good hairdresser to grow your hair.
23. Do you want to wear tight clothes but don’t want to let pizza down? Than don’t forget about shaping lingerie.
24. Princes on white horses don’t exist. And if they are they need young princess on white unicorns. Are you a princess on a white unicorn? No? Then why not to try finding a normal man and have a simple human happiness?
25. I agree with the statement: “There is no love, there is only proof of it.” I don’t like adult men who give their women cheap toys instead of jewelry made of precious metals.
26. Sometimes in the beginning of the show when I am going to the clothing rail I think that stylist won’t help to the hero of the show. But deodorant and washing powder certainly will help her.
27. Frequently, I see ladies who pretend to be girls and girls who try to look as ladies, as far as possible. Sometimes I want to introduce them to each other.
28. “Why do I need an evening dress – for what occasion I can wear it? I” Strange question … Of course, to the place where you have never been – and mainly because in jeans and sneakers you’re not allowed to come there.
29. Don’t wear tights color of a stale dead body. Just don’t wear it and that is it. And no explanations.
30. Beauty doesn’t fall from the sky – it’s a hard work. So work, damn it!
