The eyes are a window to your soul—and mind and character. If you want to make a classy first impression, Dreizen suggests focusing on your gaze."Maintaining soft but steady eye contact lets people know you are actively engaged in conversation with them," she says. "They will feel seen and heard and not like you are more interested in that conversation over there."
2. Confident posture
Classy people are like the human equivalent of summer breezes."Try to remember your goal is for people to feel at ease around you," Dreizen states. "Relax your mouth, observe the world and try to let the tension drop from your eyes. You want to look pleasant without having to plaster on a smile."
4. Intentional, confident walking
Stay connected to the people you're actually with. Ironically, this cue involves a bit of disconnecting from your devices."Making others feel warm and welcome means focusing on them when you are together," Dreizen explains. "Do not check your phone constantly. Do not sit scrolling."Sometimes, you may need to be plugged into your phone, such as if you're waiting for a loved one to come out of surgery. That's OK."If you need to check your phone, mention you need to check it, check it and then put it away," she says. "Being involved in your phone when in community with others can indicate to them you are bored or uninterested."
6. Breathing
7. Comfort with stillness and silence
Maybe after taking that breath, you decide to stay still and silent. That's so classy. In fact, you can even embrace a prolonged pause in moments when things are calm."Part of being an inviting person is learning to get comfortable in the quiet moments, both alone and with others," Dreizen points out. "Do not feel like you have to fill every quiet beat— it can be an overwhelming experience for both yourself and others."Related: Psychologists Say These 9 Habits Make You Seem Insecure Without Realizing It
The No. 1 Thing To Avoid if You Want To Look Classy
That doesn't mean you have to lie or go heavy on toxic positivity."While we want to be authentic with others, we also have to be mindful of processing our own judgements in our own mind rather than spewing them all around the conversation," Dreizen warns.That includes the judgments you communicate without words through expressions and other forms of body language.
