The "Elle Woods Mindset"👡✨

 If we look at the iconic Elle Woods from Legally Blonde, we want that. We want that mindset of hers, to not care, wear whatever and most of all, just be.

This is the guide to just that mindset.

Find your inner Elle Woods

Breaking out of your shell

Elle wasn't always confident. In the new series of Elle Woods, she came to a "poolparty" in a bikini and was the only one. Her friend didn't come with the t-shirt emergency kit to cover up like all of the the others already were. She helped Elle break out of her shell. The thing about Elle's mindset is that she is confident and even she had to start

What is it that makes Elle so likeable (except her physical appearance)? 

She is confident and kind. By being kind and confident you need to socialise even if you preferably sit at home with a cup of tea reading blogs in your room. Socialise with random people to gain confidence.

Don't care

To simply stop caring is not easy. Elle Woods doesn't care. She wore a pink sequin bikini in her application video for Harvard Law School. She didn't let the other students judgement change her appearance or actions.

Mission possible

"What, like it's hard?" Is the mindset shift you need. Everything you want is possible. Here are some practises for you angel🪽. Tell someone on the street what you like about them. If you just silently tell your friend how amazing that lady's shoes look, then she'll never know how much you liked them. A compliment is worth so much, a bad day can be saved with one. Tell someone random something genuinely nice, not in front of your friend to laugh about it later. Just do it. Elle (according to the series) beat the anxiety with doing karaoke in a bikini, not caring what she wore or how she sounded. Try some :)

• Compliment someone
• Share your interests with someone nice
• Try out a new hobby

Trying out a new hobby like yoga, a sport, an art course, anything is good for socialising and improving confidence 🌴☀️

Find your style - and adapt to it

In Legally Blonde, Elle always managed to adapt her outfits to the Pink. She always had a pink piece on. 

Think of yourself. What is a signature of yours. Is it that perfume scent or is it your large jewellery pieces, it's maybe always a denim clothing on you? Find out and buy more of what's really you. 

If it helps you can ask your friends and family what they think define you.

Never tone down

Elle never toned down her feminine style in the original 00s film. A random person from your school said that your shirt was really ugly, so? Why should you listen to what they said about you? The important thing is that you know it's pretty and feels good on.

Now you're ready to become your own version of your inner Elle Woods
