Love your hair, Anna. You were absolutely right when you said that elegant ladies do exercise daily. I'm one of best sportperson of school . And I always need alone time to improve and perform my hobbies. How much skin can elegant lady show? Can you tell me, Anna
You are looking so gorgeous since the past year Anna. What have you been doing differently besides applying eyeshadow that looks great on you. Also, how are you doing your eyebrows? They look perfect.
I came across your channel about a year ago. My first impression was that your content was regressive, taking women back by years. However, I continued watching your videos and soon realized that what you share is valuable. I do not necessarily aspire to be affluent, but I want to be an intelligent, independent, and elegant woman. You have made it easier for me to be that woman. Lots of love from India!
I think this is a common first impression. I was exactly the same. And now I appreciate 99% of what she shares. The remaining 1% isn’t relevant for me.
I think the reason Anna may sometimes come across as aggressive is because she's direct. That's becoming quite rare in this world where too many are becoming overly politically correct. Also, women are so obsessed with being liked. We're brought up to please people and when someone is not ticking that box, sometimes it creates an icky feeling inside of us 😊
@@IevaKambarovaite absolutely correct about women being brought upto please people! we are also often encouraged to dislike women that are different than us rather than to just respect that other people have other goals and ways of living. I've grown so much as a person from annas videos even though my lifestyle hasn't necessarily changed all that much.
@@Sarah.g.carter very true. We don't have to agree 100% with everything someone says, but we can still respect that person. That's a sign of maturity and elegance👑
Same here. My first impression wasn't good and I actually stopped watching her for a while but she's so knowledgeable and has helped me in my personal life. I now love her and her videos!
I don’t garden fresh flowers but I do fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs and I love the energy it brings. Eating fresh foods also brings that energy from the inside out
@@felicialally5703 That's a great idea! I think of buying cut flowers as a huge waste while investing in potted flowers that can last for years is a lot more sensible. And the fresh fruit is a good idea, it's beautiful and healthy at the sime time.
Flowers are beautiful, but it's such a waste of our scarce land that we need to feed people from. I find it a pretty egocentric habit to be frank. But having potted plants or fruits and vegetables are great. Solutions.
it's actually about bone structure and overall look (flamboyant vs classic). If someone with heavier joints and more striking features wears delicate jewelry it won't look right with their proportions. I have strong looking cheekbones and bigger features (ie. Big shoulders and wide hips) so when I wear delicate jewelry it looks worse on me. But I can understand that figuring out what looks better on different body types is harder for some people 🙂 @@sarahmoon9857
I believe there's an eighth elegant habit - to do something nice for someone each day (even in the smallest way). This habit keeps us balanced and thinking of how we can bring light to the world. Thank you notes are so rare, but only take 5 minutes to write and put a stamp on them. It can also just be helping someone with their arms full opening a door. It can be making a special dinner for a spouse, or maybe just calling to say that we are proud of them or love them. Positive action for someone each day!
That’s so beautiful! Thanks for the comment!! I always say that we should start first searching a change in ourselves first before looking at other people to blame them. Be the change you which for the world :) little by little one drop lifts the ocean ❤️🙏🏼
Anna I started buying the flowers and it changed everything for me internally.. then I started gardening and now I'm changing all my house.. it's really inspiring!
When I was single, I would buy myself fresh flowers every month but now my man does it 💖. I also learned to choose my battles and use my energy for more productive actions. Never stop learning and growing, and stay open to the world and what life brings you 💐🥂
When you've got a habit of buying yourself fresh flowers you'll only attract a man who'll get you flowers not just on bdays and Valentine's. You set the standard ✨💐 Absolutely love having fresh flowers at my place
Even if someone purchased me flowers regularly, I would still purchase flowers for myself. There is something very satisfying about choosing and purchasing flowers, creating an ambience in a room and it's a very feminine feeling overall.
@@Tica232 Choosing battles, means..you don't waste time and energy battling something small, something that is not important. Save your energy for a battle that is really worthy and important.
This was an excellent video, Anna! I was taught to do most of them since I was a child (50 now) and was raised in a lower middle class family in a small rural town. I am an example that elegance can be achieved by anyone - wealth has nothing to do with it. My mom: “we may not have money but we will always have class.”
I haven't watched you for 2 months and I can see a lot of changes. In a way you feel more approachable, you smile and laugh more and I love itttttttttt
Dear Anna, do you think you could do a video on the elegance of swimming for example; elegant bikinis, how to act around the pool, how to not look sloppy in the pool etc? Thanks!!!
"Ownership of what we say" I love this. I have had a very bad habit of saying things that has hurt others and I regret every single one of them. I also love the "Is it really necessary to validate myself and my ego" this is so important for me because I also wasted so much time always trying to validate myself. Thank you Anna!
I learned the hard way about not being constantly available. Long story short, I was left emotionally and physically drained from just one client. Very glad I watched this video as a reminder to treat my time as valuable. I will focus on exercising more and flowers going forward! Thanks for another great collection of tips.
I’m not sure what you did differently with your hair, but it looks absolutely STUNNING in this video! I think the extra layer or two around your face really helps to frame it beautifully! And parting your hair in the middle REALLY suits you well!
Rule number 5: Not being so available! I totally agree! And from an experience, this is really life changing, you'll win more peace and energy in your life as soon as you make this one of your habits. Thank you Anna, this video is very useful, and finding out that I already have some of these habits makes me feel like I did my homework!💖😀
hi I dont really understand what is meant by not being so available. can you explain it in a simple way or give a simple example for me if you are able to?
@nimatchoudhury hi I'm sorry for replying late, for some reason I didn't receive a notification for your reply. Not being so available for me means to set a clear and solid boundaries, to not be afraid to say No, when you say Yes to something it is because you want it, not because you want to please someone else or because you are afraid of some certain reactions or judgements. I hope I was able to answer you🙏
No one will see it but today, instead of being lazy this Sunday morning I spent an hour organizing my house. I need to do more after I log off. I feel more elegant in less of a mess.
Anna, I agree with these 7 points and I am working on several such as having fresh flowers in my home. Definitely level up. Something that I am also working on is having undergarments that enhances what I am wearing, but also makes me fell awesome on the inside. And no this does not mean I am focused on the man. No! I am focused on enjoying being a beautiful woman.
Maybe someone need to hear this, instead of watching realities shows watch documentaries and listen to educational podcasts. This habbit has changed my life, maybe it will help you too.
@@Pocketrose3 see we should follow 80/20 rule for our mental diet too, that I believe. Watch fun things too but don't just watch fun stuffs. We are in era where knowledge is easily available, so why not learn too. Hope I'm making sense.
Truly great tips. Every single one❤. Younger women... don't waste your 20's and early 30's ignoring these tips... I just turned 36 and agree with Anna... you don't need to waste decades learning this Anna is saving you priceless time, like an older sister would. I wish I had a mentor like Anna in my early 20's... I would have saved a lot of time and suffering. ❤
@@uwu4695 exactly❤. Some lessons are only learned through experience, and once we reach certain age, we have lived so much to reflect and acknowledge the beliefs that held us back for so many years. We don't have to kiss many frogs to find our prince, we just need to know better and listen to the experience of people who have been there, done that and now are in a much better place.❤
Hi, I'll be 18 in a years time so I guess I'm technically still "young". what elegant tips from Anna can I realistically implement into my life right now? I'm not sure where to start as no one I know is doing this so I kind of feel alone on this journey
@@pinknicho I am also of same age and are going to be 18 next year 😁. It's nice to see another young lady here!⚘ I have been watching anna for a while and i recommend starting on these videos! She has helped me realize so much about being part of the devine feminine. 😊 1. 7 Things elegant ladies never share. 2. 5 Feminine habits of a high value woman. 3. 10 Things elegant ladies NEVER do at a restuarant. 4. 7 Signs that tell you're not elegant. 5. How to stay classy in an argument. 6. 10 Types of female friends you MUST avoid. 7. The toxic side to elegance.
i am a teenager and i started watching your videos quite a while before and yeah i have improved a lot regarding my speaking my mom said i was way too talkative so i read some self help books and now i am not persieved as stupid i also got to improve my manners and now i am more confident when i got the right stuff done maybe i am improving
Anna I think we are all enjoying that you have started to explore humor and the use of graphics and B-roll in your videos, the improvements in video quality has been through the roof this past year. Thank you for another great video ❤
Anna, your advice is life changing! I started last year...improving my attitude, home environment and appearance. I am so much happier for it! I will definitely be adding sport to my routine.
I just love how her videos changed from (how to attract a rich man) to (how to be elegant/better ladies for ourselves and consequently, affecting our quality of life),,, I kind of feel proud after seeing her glow up ✨✨
The habit that has transformed my life has been “not being so available.” This has brought and aura of mystery around me, as good friends have pointed out. Today you have put this in perspective for me. Thank you, Anna Bey! You are amazing. 🌷
As a form of exercise, I would so much recommend to do yoga or take yoga classes. First of all, everyone can benefit from it in so many different ways, and it can be done with any body issue (just needs to be adapted). It fixes so many things ! Posture, musculation, endorphins, breathing, mindfulness, lower anxiety etc.! An amazing form of exercise and relaxation depending on what you seek.
Auntie Anna 😂😂😂. I buy fresh flowers every 10 days. I do so for myself and also I keep my house ready for my friends and family who walk in at all times. Another good video from you, Anna. Thank you ❤️
I love how you pointed out the sport aspect. I started jogging daily and it turned me into a peaceful calm person. Could we maybe get some great affluent sports looks from you Anna, for jogging, Tennis and the likes? I saw you in a video horse riding and the outfits you had on were so great.
This video came at the perfect time. I’ve been so down lately because my close friend’s mum passed away🥺😓 this video has distracted me and made me happier a bit
I certainly struggle with number 1. I am a no filter, no nonsense person and very outspoken, however in the past couple of years I have been trying to be more aware of how to express my opinions and whether or not it is appropriate to say something or not. Also, I have been raised to take the high road always and I am very thankful to my parents for that, especially my mother such a classy woman. ❤ however, the past 14 months have been very difficult for me health wise and I find myself ready to snap, which I try not to do. Also, all the clothes I have bought are almost exclusively linnen 🤣 I never realized how much I love this fabric.
@fo735 Yes, but at least a person always knows where they stand with you. I despise people who talk out of both sides of their mouth and you end up pulling a dagger out of you back. Say it as it is, be truthful. It's not your fault others can't take the truth.
You can be direct and passionate without being offensive. I learned to ask 3 questions: Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? 2 of 3 need to be yes.
@@sweetyetunrefined9335 i believe in saying things that are not necessarily kind. Perhaps it is difficult and painful to hear but one must hear the hard truths in the most gentle way possible. I believe this is kinder in the long term.
You have really teached me to set boundaries. Before your videos my man tought sometimes that he don’t have to keep elevating himself. Now he knows he have to keep me happy because if his company doesn’t satisfy me, what are we doing together. Life is too short to be miserable.
You are SO wise for such a young woman and you are BRAVE; you tell the truth even though people will criticise. Those who are sensible enough to really listen to what you say WILL achieve the success they seek.
Anna, I want to share something with you and to everyone here. I come from a traditional family from my father's lineage. The education standards in my household were so high, that I would never even think about a bad word in my mind to say to anyone, because I have never learned that. However, after living alone for several years in the USA, I came across very bad people, with very bad language and I started to think that was normal. Hip hop culture and rap culture is not only music, but it is a lifestyle. And unfortunately, I accepted this lifestyle to become my life. I believe nothing can be more depreciative then hip hop and rap culture to somebody's life. The way we communicate is very important and once you allow hip hip and rap to enter your life, you start communicating like a low-class. I am slowly trying to exterminate hip-hop/rap from my life after spending years listening to that.
YES! I grew up opposite- poor in and incredibly low socioeconomic/educated environment and hip hop was the de facto culture. My (now) husband grew up educated and affluent. He told me that one of his greatest turn offs was women who listen to hip hop because he automatically files them into the low-class category. I completely cut out this genre despite growing up to it, and my life has since evolved and upgraded significantly! Remember- everything we allow into our environment through sight, sound, etc, seeps into our subconscious, which is how we communicate with the universe. Keep everything in your environment as elevated as possible and your life will begin to elevate as well.
I agree, and I believe it connects with the point about drama. Much of that culture is about a permanent disposition towards conflict and demeaning other people.
I've never even cared much for hip hop and rap. Especially rap, to me it's not singing, it's rhythmic talking. Now I'm not trying to downplay the talent and skill it takes to do it, I definitely can't, and bravo to those who can. But it's not the same as actually singing
Your videos are really great. I sometimes find myself in situations and ask “how would an elegant woman handle/behave in this situation? You have made me so aware of how I present myself. Simple things posture, no sun glasses on my head, table manners……thank you, thank you, thank you!
@@parisjoy7875 haha that would probably help, there are studies that show that the presence of flowers in hospital rooms even help patients heal faster, or feel less pain! But in my interviews people told me that they just mindfully interacted with flowers - certain flowers have very specific meanings across cultures. Maybe you can choose your next bouquet with that in mind! E.g. you want to feel more joy when walking in to your living room so you fill it with sunflowers. Or you have a specific memory connected to peonies or your wedding flowers so you buy them when you feel like being reminded of that etc.. and giving flowers is a great thing! Everyone loves it, even men. So gifting flowers will be a great way to make others feel better, its a classy present and you will be happy you made someone else smile. It can be very personal :) Biologically we all love flowers because their presence once meant fruits and thus food would follow
My best advise, which I learned later in life, before you speak, think; ‘Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary or helpful?” If it doesn’t meet all three, you probably should keep you mouth closed. ❤️
You’ve been looking so beautiful lately. This hair really looks nice on you. And this video is great! So many good points. Needed this today. Thank you! ❤️
I have bought my first fresh flowers and a vase on my 30th birthday and I feel elevated. I thought of buying fresh flowers frequently from now on and learn how to arrange them. I think I didn't do the flower arrangement well but it still looks presentable.
I have flowering plants in my balcony and when I see a flower bloom it brightens my day.. It makes me feel. like I have achieved something.. Bringing a part of nature into my home..
Dear Anna, I just finished listening to your latest podcast. What a refreshing presence you have! There are aspects in which we diverge, yet I deeply respect your opinions. I couldn't agree more, the most elegant habit is accepting graciously other points of view and not getting offended needlessly. We basically agree on the most important things. I look forward to your next podcast.
Today i won't be saying that how much i liked the video as it was being very informative. But today i would love to appreciate your efforts you put for all of us selflessly and altruistically which means a lot. Anna you're absolutely an institution while being inspiration at the same time for all of us. And i love you for being so raw genuine and caring. Lot's of love and prayers
I agree with Anna when she mentioned the "Fresh Flowers" ! I've been doing my own flower arranging and displaying them at home ( it since my mid 20s, ), and have recieved complements for it from everyone, saying that it made the dining room and living room fresh and very elegant. Also because of this, people (house visitors/ acquaintance/ extended family / friends told me that I gave the impression of someone 'refined' and 'cultured'. (P.S. I'm not showing off. My apologies if it came out that way. It's their words, not mine) I'm just saying Anna's advice do make a lot of sense!! 👍👍
Running got me through COVID. It was so easy to hide out during quarantine and eat and drink, but I got outside and ran 3-4 days a week. Not only did I lose weight, my mental health improved greatly!
As a saggitarus woman with leo moon and Gemini rising it used to be very hard for me to shut up and think before I speak bt I'm glad in the past 3 years I've gotten really better. I'm trying to be more calm and composed ..... and to my surprise it actually has made a huge difference in my life ( in a good way ofcourse ) .
Miss Anna....I was going to express that, about the Good Energy of the fresh flowers , they bring positive Energies to your space, as well as being good Feng Shui ,...Even in myv20's and 30's when I was single, living alone, I splurged on fresh flowers every few weeks. ...It just makes your space feel lovely. Elegant. Like " home " However, .......the only places you don't want to place flowers is in the Boudoir ( except when one is ill/ not well and recovering) and in the Bathroom. Great topic, and you look fabulous in that colour !
Good to know I'm on the right track. I do 6 of the 7 already. I wish I would have learned #5 much earlier in life! Unfortunately #7 my Dr has said I can not do. Now I just need to find the quality partner I deserve. Thank You Anna!
I love most of the tips except 7, absolutely Anna you’re right Botox is not for everyone. And yes, I’m not of it and at my age not even thinking of it. I’m 45 but I feel lucky to look less 10 years old without going to go any beauty salon or spa. Inner beauty really matters and it’s automatically reflect in the outside feature.😊
I love that you mentioned fitness! I run competitively and cross train in the weight room. I’d love advice on staying feminine and classy whilst drenched in sweat and surrounded by grunting men twice my size… and how to handle unwanted attention from men when we are in those male dominated spaces.
hey! i’m not sure if you’ve made a video reviewing Old Navy’s line of women’s clothing already, but if you haven’t you should totally look into it! i work at my local Old Navy store, many people don’t know but they’ve stepped up their game recently and I honestly think you would find some of the woman’s clothing to be elegant and/or affluent! i’d love to hear your thoughts. also, i’ve been a fan of your channel for a minute now and i love your fashion content!

Hi Anna, thanks for sharing this high energy & high elegance episode! Great one!
And also what about having a talk show channel where you invite high quality women for sharing their journeys on the road to success and elegance 🙏
Love your hair, Anna.
You were absolutely right when you said that elegant ladies do exercise daily.
I'm one of best sportperson of school .
And I always need alone time to improve and perform my hobbies.
How much skin can elegant lady show?
Can you tell me, Anna
Tidying up before going to bed, always bringing a little something to a dinner invitation to a friends house. Not being shady!! (Tough one for me)
You are looking so gorgeous since the past year Anna. What have you been doing differently besides applying eyeshadow that looks great on you. Also, how are you doing your eyebrows? They look perfect.

Please share where it's from!
Please share what brand ❤️
Wanted to say the same, she looks even more stunning as usually 😱
I look at them all the time
This is her best colour
This hair looks really nice on you
Yes she looks younger and modern
I was going to mention it myself. Change of colour? Style? Both? It looks gorgeous and her makeup s well.
Reminds me of the blonde ABBA lady plus the kids makeup
It really does look lovely! I think she grew it out a little?
I agree
Anna you are not an aunty you are like a big sister 🥰

Something that I am also working on is having undergarments that enhances what I am wearing, but also makes me fell awesome on the inside. And no this does not mean I am focused on the man. No! I am focused on enjoying being a beautiful woman.
Maybe someone need to hear this, instead of watching realities shows watch documentaries and listen to educational podcasts. This habbit has changed my life, maybe it will help you too.
Good one!
Me too Anu🎀❤️
I don’t watch reality shows however I do watch adult cartoons. What’s your opinion on adult cartoons? Just curious.
@@Pocketrose3 see we should follow 80/20 rule for our mental diet too, that I believe. Watch fun things too but don't just watch fun stuffs. We are in era where knowledge is easily available, so why not learn too. Hope I'm making sense.
@@gabrielar9611 that's a great advice, thankyou 😄
Anna! Im so proud of you! remember when I found you at 250K...now you are almost a million! Blessings to you! Much love from Canada : )
Truly great tips. Every single one❤. Younger women... don't waste your 20's and early 30's ignoring these tips... I just turned 36 and agree with Anna... you don't need to waste decades learning this Anna is saving you priceless time, like an older sister would. I wish I had a mentor like Anna in my early 20's... I would have saved a lot of time and suffering. ❤
Thank you lady
@@uwu4695 exactly❤. Some lessons are only learned through experience, and once we reach certain age, we have lived so much to reflect and acknowledge the beliefs that held us back for so many years. We don't have to kiss many frogs to find our prince, we just need to know better and listen to the experience of people who have been there, done that and now are in a much better place.❤

Hi, I'll be 18 in a years time so I guess I'm technically still "young". what elegant tips from Anna can I realistically implement into my life right now? I'm not sure where to start as no one I know is doing this so I kind of feel alone on this journey
@@pinknicho I am also of same age and are going to be 18 next year 😁. It's nice to see another young lady here!⚘ I have been watching anna for a while and i recommend starting on these videos! She has helped me realize so much about being part of the devine feminine. 😊

"Your personal brand should never be desperate, it should be exclusive..." YES...
and great sweater on you.
You look so clean, fresh, polished, elegant and simpel.
i am a teenager and i started watching your videos quite a while before and yeah i have improved a lot regarding my speaking my mom said i was way too talkative so i read some self help books and now i am not persieved as stupid i also got to improve my manners and now i am more confident when i got the right stuff done maybe i am improving
My rule of thumb is: if I can't say it in front of my parents and my pastor, it should remain private.
Wow 👌
Quoted and noted.
Very wise.
However there are somethings you can say with close friends you can't say in front of a pastor or family..
Woooah🌸🌸🌸👀✍✍
Anna I think we are all enjoying that you have started to explore humor and the use of graphics and B-roll in your videos, the improvements in video quality has been through the roof this past year. Thank you for another great video ❤
This shade of blue really complements your eyes.
Anna, your advice is life changing! I started last year...improving my attitude, home environment and appearance. I am so much happier for it! I will definitely be adding sport to my routine.
Anna , please show us your affluent wardrobe, shoe collection and perfume collection too... Maybe just a glimpse.. PLEASE...
I would like to see it too!
Yes
Me too
@@adrianavargova not in a single video !! in parts ofcourse
Keep watching her videos she has made some
I just love how her videos changed from (how to attract a rich man) to (how to be elegant/better ladies for ourselves and consequently, affecting our quality of life),,, I kind of feel proud after seeing her glow up ✨✨
The habit that has transformed my life has been “not being so available.” This has brought and aura of mystery around me, as good friends have pointed out. Today you have put this in perspective for me. Thank you, Anna Bey! You are amazing. 🌷
What do you tell a friend who literally asks you what are you doing every hour of the day? 😅
As a form of exercise, I would so much recommend to do yoga or take yoga classes. First of all, everyone can benefit from it in so many different ways, and it can be done with any body issue (just needs to be adapted). It fixes so many things ! Posture, musculation, endorphins, breathing, mindfulness, lower anxiety etc.! An amazing form of exercise and relaxation depending on what you seek.
It also helps with core strength and balance. I LOVE yoga!!!
Not everyone loves yoga…..
Yoga is demonic
So true! I gained half an inch doing yoga. Must have had really bad posture
Auntie Anna 😂😂😂. I buy fresh flowers every 10 days. I do so for myself and also I keep my house ready for my friends and family who walk in at all times. Another good video from you, Anna. Thank you ❤️
I love number 2- Fresh flower. I started looking and enjoy my dad’s garden everday anytime im free after watching your this video.
Good Morning Anna 🌞 - You look very beautiful & elegant today. Blue is an excellent color for you 🌼.
Straight hair and that color of blue is meant for you!!😍gorg
I love how you pointed out the sport aspect. I started jogging daily and it turned me into a peaceful calm person. Could we maybe get some great affluent sports looks from you Anna, for jogging, Tennis and the likes? I saw you in a video horse riding and the outfits you had on were so great.
This is a great request! 👍👍
When you mentioned HIIT I paused the video, went running and bought a small bouquet of flowers ... My mood was so much better! Thank you anna!
Flowers are great advice! I grow 3 colors of roses on my balcony and lilies in the summer. They do have energy!
I needed your tips, especially not to be always available for everybody... And exercise.... Thank you 💖..
I 100% agree with all of these....I practice all these habits and they are truly life changing!!!!
Anna i did a 10 minute hiit workout ... its amazing ... ur amazing influence
This video came at the perfect time. I’ve been so down lately because my close friend’s mum passed away🥺😓 this video has distracted me and made me happier a bit
Sorry about your loss. It is well
@@Abenahh thank you ❤️
@@Rachel_Ad ❤️
@TheElegantWomen thank you so much❤️❤️
🌷
Anna this hairstyle suits you so well, it makes ou look 10 years younger. You should wear it more often :)
I also took notice of this new hair style and makes her look very stylish and young!!!
@@chessc.3407 yess
I certainly struggle with number 1. I am a no filter, no nonsense person and very outspoken, however in the past couple of years I have been trying to be more aware of how to express my opinions and whether or not it is appropriate to say something or not. Also, I have been raised to take the high road always and I am very thankful to my parents for that, especially my mother such a classy woman. ❤ however, the past 14 months have been very difficult for me health wise and I find myself ready to snap, which I try not to do.
Also, all the clothes I have bought are almost exclusively linnen 🤣 I never realized how much I love this fabric.
@fo735
Yes, but at least a person always knows where they stand with you. I despise people who talk out of both sides of their mouth and you end up pulling a dagger out of you back. Say it as it is, be truthful. It's not your fault others can't take the truth.
You can be direct and passionate without being offensive. I learned to ask 3 questions: Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? 2 of 3 need to be yes.
@@sweetyetunrefined9335 i believe in saying things that are not necessarily kind. Perhaps it is difficult and painful to hear but one must hear the hard truths in the most gentle way possible. I believe this is kinder in the long term.
@@sweetyetunrefined9335 I love this! I’m going to begin applying it to my thought process
Same with me. But I am learning to stop and think before I open my mouth.
Totally agree with the fresh flowers point.
Your top really brings out your eyes. And the colour makes your skin glowy♥️
I have studied psychology at master level and the point Anna made related to this is 100% accurate.
You have really teached me to set boundaries. Before your videos my man tought sometimes that he don’t have to keep elevating himself. Now he knows he have to keep me happy because if his company doesn’t satisfy me, what are we doing together. Life is too short to be miserable.
I agree with you completely. When we’re enjoying little things, the big joy is coming after us.
EVERYONE needs to learn number 1!!!
Yes
You are SO wise for such a young woman and you are BRAVE; you tell the truth even though people will criticise. Those who are sensible enough to really listen to what you say WILL achieve the success they seek.
I love how you did your makeup today the eyeliner subtly contrasts with your eyes. Thank you dear for continuing to contribute to our community! 🌸
This shade of blue that you're wearing is wonderfully flattering! Rock it! :-)
These things are true. Energy is so important.
Anna, I want to share something with you and to everyone here. I come from a traditional family from my father's lineage. The education standards in my household were so high, that I would never even think about a bad word in my mind to say to anyone, because I have never learned that. However, after living alone for several years in the USA, I came across very bad people, with very bad language and I started to think that was normal. Hip hop culture and rap culture is not only music, but it is a lifestyle. And unfortunately, I accepted this lifestyle to become my life. I believe nothing can be more depreciative then hip hop and rap culture to somebody's life. The way we communicate is very important and once you allow hip hip and rap to enter your life, you start communicating like a low-class. I am slowly trying to exterminate hip-hop/rap from my life after spending years listening to that.
Yes entertainment in general can take away from class and elegance!!
YES! I grew up opposite- poor in and incredibly low socioeconomic/educated environment and hip hop was the de facto culture. My (now) husband grew up educated and affluent. He told me that one of his greatest turn offs was women who listen to hip hop because he automatically files them into the low-class category. I completely cut out this genre despite growing up to it, and my life has since evolved and upgraded significantly! Remember- everything we allow into our environment through sight, sound, etc, seeps into our subconscious, which is how we communicate with the universe. Keep everything in your environment as elevated as possible and your life will begin to elevate as well.
I agree, and I believe it connects with the point about drama. Much of that culture is about a permanent disposition towards conflict and demeaning other people.
I've never even cared much for hip hop and rap. Especially rap, to me it's not singing, it's rhythmic talking. Now I'm not trying to downplay the talent and skill it takes to do it, I definitely can't, and bravo to those who can. But it's not the same as actually singing
This hairstyle makes you look younger and extraa pretty 💗💗💗💗
Your videos are really great. I sometimes find myself in situations and ask “how would an elegant woman handle/behave in this situation? You have made me so aware of how I present myself. Simple things posture, no sun glasses on my head, table manners……thank you, thank you, thank you!
Yess❤
That’s true about fresh flowers 🌸. It’s related to the vibrations of affluence.
It really is! I wrote my masters dissertation on the human flower connection and they’re sooo good for us
@@ciiiwaaa But fresh flowers are dead. So how can this be a good thing?
@@ciiiwaaa but what can I do with fresh flowers 🌸 other than put some on my dining room table?
Like plaster my home with them?
@@parisjoy7875 haha that would probably help, there are studies that show that the presence of flowers in hospital rooms even help patients heal faster, or feel less pain! But in my interviews people told me that they just mindfully interacted with flowers - certain flowers have very specific meanings across cultures. Maybe you can choose your next bouquet with that in mind! E.g. you want to feel more joy when walking in to your living room so you fill it with sunflowers. Or you have a specific memory connected to peonies or your wedding flowers so you buy them when you feel like being reminded of that etc.. and giving flowers is a great thing! Everyone loves it, even men. So gifting flowers will be a great way to make others feel better, its a classy present and you will be happy you made someone else smile. It can be very personal :) Biologically we all love flowers because their presence once meant fruits and thus food would follow
My best advise, which I learned later in life, before you speak, think; ‘Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary or helpful?” If it doesn’t meet all three, you probably should keep you mouth closed. ❤️
You’ve been looking so beautiful lately. This hair really looks nice on you. And this video is great! So many good points. Needed this today. Thank you! ❤️
Anna has so clearly figured out her colors! She is glowing.
I have bought my first fresh flowers and a vase on my 30th birthday and I feel elevated. I thought of buying fresh flowers frequently from now on and learn how to arrange them. I think I didn't do the flower arrangement well but it still looks presentable.
Anna speaks so true about fresh flowers, thank you for pointing it out.!
I really liked that how Anna said " Auntie Anna" With full of confidence 👏🏻
I’m glad to have you back I’m lost without you until a grow confidence
I love to buy myself flowers. We need to normalize women buying flowers for themselves.
I love it too! Or going around the neighborhood and picking flowers is such a nice way to get exercise, and bring home a whole bouquet 😂
I have flowering plants in my balcony and when I see a flower bloom it brightens my day.. It makes me feel. like I have achieved something.. Bringing a part of nature into my home..
Dear Anna, I just finished listening to your latest podcast. What a refreshing presence you have! There are aspects in which we diverge, yet I deeply respect your opinions. I couldn't agree more, the most elegant habit is accepting graciously other points of view and not getting offended needlessly. We basically agree on the most important things. I look forward to your next podcast.
Today i won't be saying that how much i liked the video as it was being very informative. But today i would love to appreciate your efforts you put for all of us selflessly and altruistically which means a lot. Anna you're absolutely an institution while being inspiration at the same time for all of us. And i love you for being so raw genuine and caring. Lot's of love and prayers
I was just in a training and a very useful acronym I learned is “WAIT Why Am I Talking?” Which is very good to think before you speak.
I agree with Anna when she mentioned the "Fresh Flowers" ! I've been doing my own flower arranging and displaying them at home ( it since my mid 20s, ), and have recieved complements for it from everyone, saying that it made the dining room and living room fresh and very elegant. Also because of this, people (house visitors/ acquaintance/ extended family / friends told me that I gave the impression of someone 'refined' and 'cultured'. (P.S. I'm not showing off. My apologies if it came out that way. It's their words, not mine) I'm just saying Anna's advice do make a lot of sense!! 👍👍
Running got me through COVID. It was so easy to hide out during quarantine and eat and drink, but I got outside and ran 3-4 days a week. Not only did I lose weight, my mental health improved greatly!
I am working on excercise often. I will also try the flowers point. Thanks Anna.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Started to think before answering, fresh flowers and stopped offering to pay on a date 👊🏼✨ definitely life changing!
Good reminders... I completely agree with the fresh flowers.
I just love when Anna is energetic and fun that makes me waiting for the upcoming videos, besides of course all the things I learn ❤️❤️❤️
I found this channel today,,i m watching videos back to back ...so happy
As a saggitarus woman with leo moon and Gemini rising it used to be very hard for me to shut up and think before I speak bt I'm glad in the past 3 years I've gotten really better. I'm trying to be more calm and composed ..... and to my surprise it actually has made a huge difference in my life ( in a good way ofcourse ) .
Love it.. so true.. every point Anna that makes in this Must-Watch clip.
Such an elegant lady
Miss Anna....I was going to express that, about the Good Energy of the fresh flowers , they bring positive Energies to your space, as well as being good Feng Shui ,...Even in myv20's and 30's when I was single, living alone, I splurged on fresh flowers every few weeks. ...It just makes your space feel lovely. Elegant. Like " home "
However, .......the only places you don't want to place flowers is in the Boudoir ( except when one is ill/ not well and recovering) and in the Bathroom.
Great topic, and you look fabulous in that colour !
Good to know I'm on the right track. I do 6 of the 7 already. I wish I would have learned #5 much earlier in life! Unfortunately #7 my Dr has said I can not do. Now I just need to find the quality partner I deserve. Thank You Anna!
Good luck. Me, too - the quality partner.
I like the humor you put in your videos. It's interesting and funny.
I love most of the tips except 7, absolutely Anna you’re right Botox is not for everyone. And yes, I’m not of it and at my age not even thinking of it. I’m 45 but I feel lucky to look less 10 years old without going to go any beauty salon or spa. Inner beauty really matters and it’s automatically reflect in the outside feature.😊
Dear Ana you are glowing!! You look gorgeous this color is really beautiful on you ❤️❤️
Love all the advice as well!!
That is definitely your color! You look good in everything, but that color blue just pops on you.
I totally agree about the exercise.
This channel provides so much value to young ladies
I love that you mentioned fitness! I run competitively and cross train in the weight room. I’d love advice on staying feminine and classy whilst drenched in sweat and surrounded by grunting men twice my size… and how to handle unwanted attention from men when we are in those male dominated spaces.
Exactly!
Agree with flowers 🙂 I feel happy everytime i have fresh flowers on the vase 😍
Getting flowers really help feeling good and positive… really great tip🥰
Good Day to You Anna.
Thank you for the important reminders.
You are lovely - and adorable in your presentation.
Anna could you do a makeup routine or perhaps a video about makeup mistakes to avoid, makeup etiquette etc.
hey! i’m not sure if you’ve made a video reviewing Old Navy’s line of women’s clothing already, but if you haven’t you should totally look into it! i work at my local Old Navy store, many people don’t know but they’ve stepped up their game recently and I honestly think you would find some of the woman’s clothing to be elegant and/or affluent! i’d love to hear your thoughts.
also, i’ve been a fan of your channel for a minute now and i love your fashion content!
