What Exactly Is A Bond Girl?


What is a Bond girl? She is a woman that is smart, independent and brave. She has class and style. Even Tiffany Case, who could be a little on the wild side had a certain style that she made work for her. Bond girls don't follow trends. They find out what works for them, but they aren't afraid to try new things, whether it's clothes, food and drink or men. If you are reading this, chances are you've seen Bond girls in movies and wonder if that lifestyle is attainable. It is ! While we may not all look exactly like Halle Berry, we can change our lifestyle, our mindset, our attitude. For instance, being brave doesn't mean you're not afraid to do something. On the contrary, you will be afraid to do many things. Bravery is being afraid and doing it anyway. I'm not talking about taking unnecessary risks, I mean speaking up for yourself. Asking for what you want, politely but firmly and making sure you get it. Think like a Bond girl and you become one, it really is that simple.

Even though you may see a Bond girl in the movies whispering "Oh, James" in Bond's ear, Bond girls do not rely on men. Holly Goodhead is a scientist and Mary Goodnight, like Bond, is in intelligence. Bond girls may enjoy a man's company, but she never allows herself to become dependent on them. If you notice in the movies, Bond girls are fabulous before Bond comes along and they will be fabulous long after he's moved on to his next mission. He doesn't make them Bond girls, they were amazing before they met him. That was part of the attraction of them to Bond. They don't wait for calls or blow up his phone with texts. A bond girl lives her life and if her Bond happens to come around, that's great, but if he doesn't, that's all right too. She has her own life and interests, another factor that makes her attractive.

Find what makes your heart race, whether it's work or a hobby and learn all you can about it. Being interested in something makes you interesting to others.
