I'm a glamour girl all the way around so here are my fav things to make me feel glamorous...
1. EAU DE PARFUM
On making an entrance: Cleopatra
On sleeping: Marilyn Monroe
"What do I wear in bed? Why Chanel No. 5 of course”.
On a future: Coco Chanel
"A woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future."
On revealing yourself: Christian Dior
"A woman's perfume tells more about her than her handwriting."
On happiness: Anon
"Happiness is like perfume: You can't give it away without getting a little on yourself."
On glamour: Taj Acosta ;)
A little perfume behind the knees, behind the neck...these are sensual places you least expect, but oh do they ever leave a trace of your allure! I never go to bed or leave home without a spritz of perfume, it's like being naked!
2. CHAMPAGNE
I used to think champage was bitter, until I had a fabulous glass one night that changed my relationship with it forever. It's sophisticated and crisp, with seductive bubbles that make every glass a true luxury. Try a glass of brut the next time your out, and it doesn't have to be Perrier-Jouët!
3. LINGERIE
(warning: if you are a man, i.e. my husband you may want to skip this part! For girls eyes only, we need our secrets!!)
Dearest dolls, I don't care what field your are in, what attire you are required to wear on a daily basis, everyone one of you should have something you can wear underneath those clothes that is mind blowing. I'm not saying every day you should wear something amazingly lacey, but 3 out of 7 is a good place to start! Trust me, you'll feel like a pinup. Now get out those gorgeous pieces you've been saving in the back of your drawer and start using them now!! I digress.
4. LIPSTICK
I love a good lipgloss don't get me wrong. But a gorgeous tube of lipstick like this one, taken out of your purse and applied is beyond glamorous!
5. LOUBOUTIN
6. WINGED EYELINER
You've got this down right? I don't need to do a tutorial?
7. JEWELS
Take something off, blah blah blah. More is more, be different and unique. Wear what you like and rock it.
8. TOUCH MY HAIR WHY DON'T CHA
Soft hair will make you feel glamorous in no time. Apply some shine serum and a fabulous smelling mousse or frizz creme and you're in business.
9. THE QUEEN HERSELF: LBD
Every girl should have one.
10.SWEET CONFIDENCE
Confidence is very glamorous. It's appealing and provacative. When you have confidence in your appearance, style, makeup, body, smile, etc., you can't help but attract people to you. Keep it glam!
I pass the Happy 101 Award to:

Love your list. You're absolutely right about all of it, especially the lingerie :)
Reading this was such fun - I enjoyed every bit of it - LOL - Love your humour on all things beautiful and sublime. Here's sending you a cup of sunshine sprinkled with champagne;-)
why thank you mon freir! you are one of the nicest bloggers i know!
i love winged eyeliner but i need to practice my liquid eyeliner application skills. lol they are lacking.
and i agree i love a good perfume, it can make someone infinitely more attractive! 9or unattractive if its bad!)
i do like my new blog layout. i felt like everyone else had all this room to organize things and mine was all crowded. so now a new row! and some new posting fonts etc. i dont think ill change for awhile :)
thank god its already tuesday!
Taj! You are one GLAMOROUS chica. Love your post and list to got with it.
Thanks again darling for your sweet recognition. I will soon post and brag about in my blog.
Viva La Glam, that is YOU!!!
oxox
Congratz on the awards, darling. You certainly deserve it and a lot more! And thank you for passing it to me. Such an honor :)
Thanks a lot for sharing the award with me... you are fabulous.
Looking at your list, one can easily conclude that the writer and the owner of that list is an ultra glamorous lady. The choice of perfume, shoes and jewels speak for itself. The preference for champagne instead of beer and other cocktail drinks is a mark of real elegance. And sweet confidence, yes, that will seal the deal.
PS... I never tried dabbing perfume behind my knees. Hahaha! I'm just so ancient. xoxo
Great tag!!!! Thank you so much for tagging me! Perfumes are one of my loves as well!
Muahz!

Isabel @ Walk of Fashion
My Love-
I agree in every point :-)
The woman today don´t value all these things, and that´s so sad!
All those wonderful, magic things makes you a woman. I love being a woman, and I think, you can see that...
Perfume- the right lingerie- the perfect lipstick ( I agree- lipglosses are great- but they look small beside a beautiful lipstick)- sometimes a glass of champage in the rightmoment... and I love tights!!!
I´d wish, to have such a wonderful friend here beside me, to share all these things- but I am lucky- I have a wonderful daughter, and she shares all the love to those wonderful things with me :-)
Enjoy your day, my glamorous friend-
Love and kisses- Ines
Just delightful! A true glamour girl’s list.
(The book editing is getting seriously tedious so I’m taking a little break. I can’t be a good girl all the time! Plus it’s getting so hard to tell what’s good and what’s not. I’m just too close to it.)
Congrats on the award!
Nice quotes and lovely images!
Thanks for your opinion about my dress!
Still thinking about what to do, might not take the sleeves of at all. Will get it tailored soon!
I totally agree with every single one! Especially the jewels! ;)
Great list!
xoxo

I think I'll have number 5 and 7 :)
Kisses.

Oh thank you thank you honey!!! Very honored!
You are such a Glamazon Goddess Taj! Love your list!
I'm so with you on 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 10!!
...with perfume... I love perfume, was such a connoisseur in my twenties but in my thirties, my body chemistry changed... the only fragrance that 'sticks' to me is vanilla so that is my signature scent now.
Plain vanilla, either oil or EDT... makes me feel delicious!... but I do miss variety, fragrance according to mood and dress.
Loving the looks

I agree, everyone should have a little black dress, and a little white dress even for the summer! and lol at "A woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future." omg i guess some days i got no future! hahaha!
