Problem: Article: Dress and skirts are almost universal fashion signals for the feminine - wearing one defines you as a girl and throwing your jeans out is a femininity statement you make to yourself. Modern fashion has made it possible to find a dress or skirt for any occasion, from sleek black cocktail dresses to light, flowery summer skirts. The best way to pick a dress is a personal choice: do you feel comfortable, beautiful, and feminine? If so, chances are good other people will see similar traits. The softness of your natural curves is your feminine gift. Accentuate and embrace your female body to bring out the feminist aesthetic. This often means wearing clothes that highlight your chest and waist. Yet the easiest way to highlight your curves is to wear clothes that fit. You can try to wear somewhat tight clothing, or just enough to accentuate your beautiful figure. A woman's figure is markedly different from a man's, and calling(even a small amount) of attention to it will naturally look more feminine. If you feel comfortable and feminine in an outfit, then it makes you more feminine. You do not have to show skin to appear feminine. There are some fashions that, despite being worn by both men and women, are predominantly feminine. In general, delicate or softer fabrics and eye-catching patterns are considered feminine. Some things to incorporate into your wardrobe include: Lace, silk, or velvet Floral patterns Polka dots Again, though this is not strictly necessary, feminine looks typically rely on bright colors to bring out the vibrancy and fun of the feminine world. Try bolder color ideas, or spice up a simple outfit with a splash of colorful shoes or makeup. Accessories, like scarves, bags, and head wear are a great place to make your outfit more feminine. Typically worn by women, jewelry has become socially acceptable in many corners of the world for everyone. Having a little bling can make you feel confident, attractive, and worthwhile, and it will ramp up your feminine image. In general, jewelry with stones (diamonds, ruby, etc., fake or real) is considered more feminine than plain rings or chains. Wear pinky or thumb rings. Put on a nice necklace. Get your ears pierced. No one has to see what you're wearing underneath for it to make a difference. Remember that being more feminine starts from within, so if you feel it, others will feel it too. Try slipping on something a little risque and see if it makes you feel more feminine as a result. Ultimately, if you don't act feminine, your looks will only carry you so far. Feel at home in your own skin, love who you are, and enjoy life and you will radiate femininity whenever you want to. If you feel feminine, chances are good other people will see it in you too. Though there is no one right way to "be feminine," there are fashion cues that signal femininity. Looking feminine, however, does not mean you must submit to traditional gender roles. Rather, it is a stylistic choice that accentuates many classic examples of femininity such as grace, dignity, flirtiness, and sexuality. Anyone can bring feminine style into their wardrobe regardless of gender or sexual identity. Think about "classic" examples of feminine beauty, such as Halle Berry, Marilyn Monroe, and Nicole Kidman. What makes them feminine to you? Anyone -- male, female, transgender, etc. -- can look, dress, and be feminine. Feminine is not the same as "female," because it is a social, not biological, concept.
Summary: Wear dresses and skirts for simple feminine fashion. Highlight your curves and body shape. Try out traditionally feminine patterns and styles. Embrace color. Wear a little tasteful jewelry. Wear undergarments that make you feel sexy. Know that your confidence and attitude has as much to do with feminine looks as your fashion. Pay attention to the societal and cultural image of femininity.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Use your comment as an icebreaker to start the conversation. Look around and observe what is going on around you. Is there anything funny or interesting that you notice? For example, if it is lunch and the food truck hasn't arrived yet, you can say "Are they going to get us water for this wait, or do they want us to die?" If you are going to remark on something simple, try to make it playful. Even if you don't think of yourself as a funny person, you can still be playful. And playfulness is found to be very attractive to both guys and girls. This playfulness will make the conversation fun and will help keep the mood light. Don't worry, the first few comments you make to your crush are not going to make or break the conversation. Getting the conversation started is more important. So don't worry too much about being smooth, and focus instead on continuing conversation. Once you have broken in with an opening line, move on into something you can talk about more. Asking for an update is a good question to ask if you do already know the person a little bit or you are taking a class together, for example. It is a good idea to acknowledge your familiarity with one another by talking about the thing you have in common. This will make the conversation less awkward, and you will also get a better understanding of what is going on with the other person in your shared thing. For example, if you are taking a class together you can say, "So how is your midterm paper coming together?" You don't have to mention the fact that you are in a class together unless you aren't sure that he or she knows. If you want to remind him or her, do it without making a big deal out of it. Say "So in English class, how is your midterm paper coming together?" It is not weird that you know that you share a class. If he or she doesn't know, you mentioning the class first will tip him or her off and he or she will probably apologize for not recognizing you. Topics of conversation can go by pretty quickly, and so it can be good to have a couple of open ended and easy to answer questions lined up to ask your crush. You can start by telling him or her something that you do or know and then ask his or her opinion on it. This question can also be related to the context of where you are or what you are doing. For example, if you are eating an apple at lunch you could say "I personally know that Granny Smith apples are the best apples in the world, but out of curiosity, what kind of apple is your favorite?" Once again, being playful is a good way to make your conversation less awkward and more fun, especially when you are talking about simple topics and just getting your conversation going. You don't want to ask him or her something too controversial. Stay away from any hot button topics like politics or religion. You should try to make a unique connection based on your conversation and the particular person you are talking to. You can ask your crush something unusual but fun. For example, you could ask him or her something like "Is there a celebrity that people say, or you think, that you look like?". This kind of question could make him or her laugh. Once he or she tells you his or her celebrity look alike, you can say whether you agree or disagree, and you can tell him or her who your celebrity look alike is (and you can lie as a joke). Avoid small talk or getting to know you questions. You don't want to ask questions like "So where are you from?" because you will get an answer he or she has already used many times before. This kind of playful conversation helps you get more comfortable with one another. If you don't have many opportunities to talk to your crush and you see a good one, even if you don't have everything mapped out, you may want to seize the opportunity to talk to him or her by just going for it. Part of having a crush will always involve some amount of awkwardness and that can be part of the fun. So you don't have to overthink it- go for it. Going for it is good because it will help you get over the barrier of initial contact. And remember, it isn't very important how you start talking to him or her- the important part is continuing the conversation. Sometimes just going with your gut can bring out your most confident self.
Summary:
Make a funny or playful comment about the place you are at or thing you are doing. Get the update on something he or she has been doing, especially if you share something in common. Ask for his or her opinion on something easy to talk about. Ask him or her something unexpected but easy to answer. Go with an opening line that pops in your head.
