etre vs. avoir l'air

The first time I did this exercise, I wrote "Je vais etre beau et elegant !" Then, I changed it to: "Je vais avoir l'air beau et elegant !", which was marked wrong. Wouldn't the use of the phrase, "avoir l'air" also be correct in this situation?

Merci beaucoup et bonne continuation !
