She firstly explained that one the key features that takes away from a person’s elegance is ‘bad hair’.

‘I’m aware you might not have the time to do a blow dry,’ said Anna. ‘You might just have to do something quickly at home and you have to have a go-to hairstyle.

‘For me, that is just putting my hair up in a classy bun like elegantly behind my head. My hair can be greasy for that, I just add a little bit of dry shampoo and cover that up and voila, elegance in just one minute.’

She continued: ‘I would say definitely just putting your hair up in some form of bun or easy up-do is a perfect solution when you are in a rush for most of us. Just remember that your hair is going to be more important than your makeup.’

Next, the elegance coach suggested those wanting to strive for class while also in a hurry should always stick to wrinkle-free fabrics.  

Anna said: ‘When you are in a rush you’re not going to have time to steam your clothes.

‘What I want you to do when you are standing there panicking in your wardrobe, do not even look at your cottons, do not even look at your linens, do not look at those fabrics like silk that you know wrinkle.

‘Just have tunnel vision on those fabrics in your closet that do not wrinkle and are already hanging there wrinkle free.’

Anna also suggested that everyone needs to have an outfit or two in their closest that they know they can always rely.

She then explained how there are certain clothing items that are ‘going to instantly lift your elegance so that you look put together even if you’re wearing something really boring’. 

The elegance coach revealed: ‘Those items are hats and heels. Now you don’t have to do both of them but you can pick one or the other and this works all year round.

‘Whenever you can try and have a little bit of heel going on for yourself, even if that means just having a little small block heel, as soon as your flat foot is elevated a tiny bit, it elongates your body.

‘It also makes your outfit look so much better. We all know that when you wear a pair of sneakers it’s not really the most kind of sophisticated type of shoe. 

‘But when you have to wear flats maybe try and spice yourself up by wearing a hat because a hat is always going to lift your outfit whether we’re talking about a summer hat, a fall or a winter hat.

‘A glamorous hat is going to transform your outfit instantly and the bonus point with that is that you can have a really bad hair day underneath.’

The elegance coach then recommended adding a blazer to add some style to a simple ensemble.
