A French friend came to my house for the weekend and asked me why our women looked older than their age.

Speaking about the appearance of women, it is impossible not to mention fashion and style. Whatever it is, but clothes, makeup and physical characteristics play a role and play quite a lot. Of course, current global trends are telling us what is most important. beauty. That you can be overweight, do not use cosmetics, even some hygiene products and at the same time remain beautiful. But the reality is that few people (of course, ordinary people) pay attention to this.



What if we compare the post-Soviet space, Europe and America? It seems that the standards are approximately the same, but in fact it is quite a noticeable difference. But why is that? The Internet is the same for everyone. There are advertisements for the same brands on TV. And people themselves have long been relatively free to move around the world. But there is a gap. What do you think this has to do with it?

Of course, the beauty of the world of women is very extensive and multifaceted. Take Chinese women, for example. They are very much appreciated light, even white skin color, so they can be found on various beaches of the planet in swimsuits and even masks that completely cover the skin. Is it convenient? Hardly. But what wouldn’t you do for a presentable appearance?

Indians are known for their love of gold jewelry. According to official information, these women carry more gold than the World Bank currently holds! And in combination with traditional sari clothing, which is a piece of fabric up to 9 meters, all this splendor looks just amazing!



African fashionistas love to use native motifs in their wardrobe. The most popular materials are cotton, silk and satin. Dresses can be a variety of cuts. Let’s not forget that Africa is a continent. But the emphasis, to a greater extent, goes on colorful drawings and imitation of local fauna: zebras, leopards, giraffes. On beautiful dark skin it looks very impressive.

But today we would like to talk about the difference in the appearance of women from the post-Soviet space, Europe and America. How they are similar to each other, and how they differ and why. As we mentioned above, information accessibility in these areas is very developed. And it would be logical to assume that the views, at least for the most part, on some things would have to coincide. But, alas. Practice shows otherwise.

For some reason, some people still think that Britney Spears is still fashionable in the United States. Low waist pants, skirts, blonde hair, shortened sweatshirts and T-shirts. But in fact, of course, this fashion has long sunk into oblivion. And what is really fashionable there, if you look at it? The fact is that for the United States now is not the easiest time, in terms of appearance. To put it simply, who is so proud. Freedom of opinion, opinion and political religion.

Women fight for their rights and can wear whatever they want. You need to understand that in this country, few people walk just like that. Most of them use cars, as public transport is relatively poor. So no one is surprised by the picture when a sleeping miss comes out of a luxury car, with a bunch of hair on her head and in pajama pants. Or, on the contrary, with a bright hairstyle, home slippers, leather pants and an extra centner of weight. What's wrong, I have a right. And it's really her business.



Of course, the situation can vary from state to state. More traditional choose ordinary, classic clothes or something similar to the style of the 80s: extended pants, sneakers and blouses, T-shirts. But the further into the woods... But on the other hand, it's fashion. In a few years, things may turn upside down, but the world will continue to spin at the same rate.

It is interesting in our region that for a foreigner, our women can also fall, so to speak, into two extremes. Either one or the other.

For example, it is wild for them that local beauties will not go to take out the garbage if they do not make up beforehand. Yes, it is, of course, exaggerated (because removing garbage is a man's job). But we all know that women in our country really prep for a trip to the supermarket, located in a 5-minute walk. What will the neighbors say when they see it? For foreign visitors, this is a mystery. At home, they can relax and look more American-style. A robe, stretched sweatpants or something. Why, does my husband love what to do?



But there is another type of woman. Those who mentally begin to age by the age of thirty. They, instead of enjoying their youth, do not depart from the stove, washing machine, dirty dishes. All supermarket prices, discount days, good and bad brands of products are known by heart. Their favorite appearance: practicality. Pants, a sweatshirt, even a tracksuit will do. The main thing is to be quick and convenient. You have to do a lot of things today so you don’t have time to do them tomorrow. Internally, they have an opinion on everything, but they do not often share it. Because there's no time.

Europeans have managed to take a little bit of everything from some and from others. And I have to say, they did a great job of that. They chose to remain as feminine as possible, not allowing themselves such liberties as do American women. But they also gave up excess makeup for and without. Young Europeans now, most often, dress quite casually, although with taste, it is impossible to hide.



At the same time, women over 40 and even 50 do not deny themselves open dresses, blouses and skirts. Combining all this with good makeup and enviable dentistry. And having good teeth, as we all know, is more expensive than any Chanel or Dior. Especially in European dental clinics.

Why is that? Probably because of the inner peace of the Europeans in general. They're not too overwhelmed by losses in World War II. They don’t have the kind of ambiguous reforms that are happening in the United States. It’s time to relax, smile and taste another croissant with a cup of fragrant coffee. There is no rush: neither to the store for sale, nor to the rally, to protect another endangered species of bumblebees. You can relax and just live beautifully.



Of course, counter-examples are also enough. Because to cut everyone under one comb is simply stupid. However, if you look deeper into the issue, the results will be exactly this. No matter how bad or good it sounds. And nice women who still do not understand what style suits them most, do not be upset. After all, at any moment you can look at yourself in the mirror, notice your weaknesses and strengths and simply change beyond recognition. It's never too late to grow up.

What do you think is more important than the inner beauty of a person or appearance? Share your thoughts in the comments!
