HOW TO STOP BEING A GIRLY GIRL

You've been a girly girl in the past, but now you've grown up and decided that this style and attitude does no longer represent you. So, if you want your immature, ditzy side to convert into a more sophisticated type of feminine, or just want to stop being conceited and ditzy, this article can help you. Read on to find out how to stop being a girly girl.

Steps

  1. Stop dressing like Barbie. Get rid of most of your pink stuff, clothes with prints like hearts and flowers, butterfly-shaped hair clips, and half of your mini skirts. Add some black clothes; they're easy to combine with almost everything.
  2. Reorganize your makeup kit. Use lipstick instead of lip gloss, and go for eyeshadow in natural colors rather than pink, purple, blue, green or orange eyeshadow. Don't cake on makeup.
  3. Talk normally. Stop using "OMG", "like" when it's not needed, "totally", "duh" and such. Example of a typical girly girl talk: "OMG, like, those shoes are, like, sooo cute! I totally need a pair like that! Like, duh, they're awesome!". Avoid talking like that.
  4. Don't smile all the time, especially when you don't mean it. For example, when you argue with somebody, don't smile at them while being mean to them. A smile is nice and welcome in 85% of cases, but that's one of the 15% when it's not appropriate.
  5. Make friends with guys. As a girly girl, you probably had only female pals and the guys were just for flirting. You've got a lot to learn from guys, for example how to take things less seriously, be more relaxed and joke more. Friendships between girls are filled with jealousy, gossip, catfights, betrayal, lies and secrets. Friendships between guys are different.
  6. Avoid shopping at typical preppy stores, like Abercrombie or Hollister. These shops are mostly inclined towards a girly girl style.
  7. Talk in a lower pitch. It's more mature and boys like it more. Guaranteed.
  8. Don't play dumb or ditzy. Just be yourself. You'll have a lot more to earn from behaving like an intelligent person. First of all, people (including parents) will take you more seriously. You will impress guys by acting mature, and you will gain the appreciation of adults too, not only teens.
  9. Start practicing a sport. Other than cheerleading, mind; it's the typical girly girl sport (if it can be called a sport). Play a team sport like basketball, soccer, volleyball or baseball. A sport teaches you how to be part of a team and collaborate with people to attain a certain goal. It also teaches you discipline, solidarity and strategical thinking, plus it's a great way to lose weight.
