About a month ago, I started doing a 5-minute set of stomach exercises that can be done on your bed. Just having more control and muscle in my stomach area has made me feel more confident wearing the styles that focus on
That's a really great tip! So good for your posture too! ❤️❤️
hi, let us know what it is, im super interested 🙂
Would love a link
I want to know too!
Me too
Right size sandals: no toes trying to "escape" 😉 Classic shoes, not too high. Kind of no-makeup makeup, neutral shades on eyes and lips
Those are excellent tips! No toe hang! 🤣❤️❤️❤️
@@ANNAREID29 No tortured feet of any kind, period! Hammer toes and a bunion squeezed and almost bisected by strappy heels make people cringe in sympathetic pain. Also, it looks stupid.
Whenever I see people's toes hanging out of their shoes I wonder how those shoes feel comfortable...
I recently invested in a laundry kit. I purchased a steamer, cashmere comb, sweater stone, and other items to take care of my fabrics. It has made a world of difference.
I’m updating my comment because my replies keep getting deleted so I will type in code.
All items I purchased from Uncle Jeff 😉
- The Laundress Cashmere Comb
- The Laundress Sweater Stone
- The Laundress Wool & Cashmere Spray
- The Laundress Wash & Stain Bar
- The Laundress Stain Brush
- Conair Steamer
- Conair Steamer Mitt (helps protect your hand from the heat)
- Woolite Dryer Cleaner Kit (This was FABULOUS! I used it for wool blazers I purchased from the thrift store and cashmere sweaters).
- June Tailor Pressing Cloth (use on delicate fabrics when ironing and steaming)
- Sitake Mesh Sweater Hanging Rack (great for items that need to dry flat)
- Woodlore Cedar Shoe Trees for women
I also purchased basic white towels to roll my sweaters and other items in hand wash that can’t be wrung out. I either press the water out or roll it in the towel and then lay them flat on the hanging mesh rack to air dry.
This helps to cut costs for my dry clean only items. I hope this helps someone.
I didn't know that existed! Googling that now! 😃❤️
@@ANNAREID29 The Laundress has a lot of items for delicate fabric needs. I feel like you may have done this already, but I think about video idea is caring for clothes, shoes, accessories, etc.
I have some nice shoes that have gotten worn out because I didn’t use shoe trees when storing them, or shoe horns to put the shoes on. Also using things to stuff in your boots and hand bags to keep their shape when not in use.
I think this ties into looking out best, because we’ve taken care of our items.
Oh wow, me too, never. Heard of it. Can you post a link? TIA!
Do you have a link to what you bought?^^
@@Artzenflowers My comment keeps getting deleted by the powers that be (not Anna). The cashmere comb and sweater stone are from The Laundress. The steamer is from Conair. You can get them from Uncle Jeff 😉
The skin care prior to an event is a good point. Also good under garments help as well!! Not just spanx but also good support (bras, etc) and seamless no vpl undergarments!
YES!! That is a huge one! How did I forget that 🤣 Thank you!
you always look great, and you are cute and funny, but most of all authentic.
I share your option advise and values.
Thank you for taking the time to put them out there.
The pants spillage is my no-go and it’s so easy to fix! The right size is not always your standard size for clothing!
Yes, confidence...its the best thing you can wear. A friend of mine once said he saw a girl come to a party in a purple jumpsuit. He said she didn't have the "best" body (we were in our 20's though, so I bet she did) but her confidence was captivating.
Confidence always trumps everything! ❤️❤️❤️
It’s really fun at the beginning of the season to pair up with a friend and try on all your outfits and take pics , let your friend pair things up you’d never think of - then go to their house and closet and do the same ✌🏽😆 print the pics and create your own look book 📕
I love this idea! My bestie and I do the "fashion show" and I have started an outfit book.
I look my best when I plan for extra time to get ready, especially if it's an important event. I get the mani/pedi the day before to help free up time on the Big Day. I also try to exercise hard - sweating and muscle pumping required - if I have time to do so at least 4-5 hours before the event. Well-flushed skin, time to thoroughly cool down, outfit and accessories laid out before getting in the shower, a nice glass of wine while getting ready, with uplifting music playing. That all brings an inner and outer glow that makes everyone look and feel their best.
I think you did show us how to dress the best at your greeting in this video by wearing red lips going well ( matching ) with your red satin top. Well done.
Thank you so much, Julie! ❤️
I love this video and agree that wardrobe care is so important. I have everything ready to wear (ironed, polished, etc.), in my closet and it simplifies getting dressed so much.
I have started doing that too and it makes life so much easier!
Great vid & love your sense of humor! Years ago I was in a Macy’s shoe department. A woman asked my opinion of 2 different (2 inch & 3inch) heels she was considering for NYE. I asked her if she wore heels regularly. She didn’t. My advice, go with the more comfortable pair, you will be comfortable & people can see your dazzling smile instead of a woman gritting through pain.
Great advice!
I just bought an antique dark gold color bias cut midi skirt done in thick drapey satin that is not shiny. I love it to bits! I pair it with a knit vest as a top or a blazer over cami. I can wear a hoodie with a puffer vest with it, too. And it looks fab with Stan Smith or Chuck 70. The juxtaposition of a lux piece mixed with athleisure is so my thing. I don’t feel over dressed or underdressed.
I'm in love with you beautiful ruby red silk blouse. You look amazing. Ty for sharing.
Thank you so much! I'm loving this color this fall! ❤️
You are very fun to watch and listen to. Thanks for the tips and I do like monochrome style.
Great advice! What I'd like to add: make sure you feel comfortable in whatever you're wearing. High heels may look fabulous but if your feet are hurting ... just saying 😂
That is SUCH great advice! Tell my 20-something self that! 🤣❤️
I love all of your videos, you have the greatest advice and I just love your personality! 💖
This color looks amazing on you! ♥️
Thank you so much for your consideration of examples that use diverse models. I really enjoy your videos ❤
The red silk shirt looks amazing on you. Thanks the good content.
Wonderful points. I would add don't go overboard with perfume because some people might be sensitive to smell and especially if it's a strong perfume and like you said weddings or someplace where you're indoors especially with the colder weather indoors possibly what the heater running just keep the perfume deodorant any sense to a minimum. And I would say that goes double for guys as well
Thank you gorgeous for sharing on how ro dressed well.
Looking forward for the next video♥️
Fantastic video!! I have to remind myself to plan ahead, preview my look, and not scramble at the last minute….
I found my lug loafers today that are NOT over the top chunky and I will wear for years. I think keeping it simple when I wear statement pieces.
Great vlog Anna👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️
Great ideas for looking your best!
GREAT VIDEOS !!!!! just found and totally binging out now
I love the way you intersperse all sizes of women to show one can be well-dressed at any size as well as age. I remember pix of Amy Vanderbilt (tells MY age, doesn't it?) when she put out her book on manners, and she was on the plump side, but beautifully dressed and coiffed!
🤣 time 10:37 is me! Introvert with poor social skills. Very few friends, so no parties.
Thank you! Excellent info for every day!
Be comfortable. That’s number one. If you don’t feel good in what you’re wearing it doesn’t matter what you wear.
Love this color on you!
I love and appreciate your honesty,
Being comfortable in your clothes and confident
Yes definitely! ❤️❤️
You look so beautiful! I adore your style! Keep up the good work. Sending lots of love 💗
this topic was covered in perfect timing!
I like the French Clay paint background.
Live long and prosper! 😁💗
Your videos are so enjoyable and informative!😀
Thanks Anna, as ever, great info…I do love my mailman. Live long and prosper for realz!
Haha yes! 🙌🙌❤️❤️
Great tips and advice. Thank you!
Red looks great on you 🤩
Being best dressed is subjective so there really is no way to tell who best dressed is. I think feeling your best is a better way to approach events. Wear whatever you want but be respectful of the events dress code. If you show up with full confidence and feel your best then that is what matters. Tips to feel good in your outfit are; making sure your outfit fits, grooming is important, having your outfit pressed and laundered before an event does wonders. I love loud fun outfits and every time I show up I get complimented. Some people think it’s best dressed others think it’s too much. Always subjective.
Good points! ❤️
Be nice to your mailman! Yes!
Always important to watch through to the end. Great tips! 🤗👍
Thank you so much! ❤️
One tip I have is to bring a lovely gift and help clean up. That leaves an impression.
I love all your videos!!😊🤗
Omg! I was laughing so hard with this video. Great points. Yes! Yes! Make sur you smell clean 🥰
Lol yay! And yes please smell clean! ❤️🤣
Great video!! Proper fitting and necessary under garments can make or brake a look. If you don’t want to wear the Spanx type undergarment for that seamless look, then make sure that your outfit is loose enough not to show any unattractive rolls. Which can often reduce our confidence. Keeping in mind that women’s bodies are often changing even week to week at times and to be aware of your sizing to compliment and flatter. 😊
Loved the suggestions
Another great video Anna, I love watching your content and especially liked your witty and anecdotal sign-off today...buy a plant was my fave 😂.
Lol glad you liked that 🤣🤣🤣
You look beautiful in this makeup and the top, ❤
I've written down a number of items that I feel would be nice to wear over December & the festive period. Then dates and any events we have invites to. I think of a couple of outfits that may be appropriate for each date & what shoes,bag,jewellery etc that would go. Well beforehand I take each outfit out of the wardrobe, make sure it's all in good order, pressed etc & try it on...does it fit? , is the top too long? Button loose?, I may change my mind on the day but I'll always have an alternative ready to throw on if I do. I know ..o c.d . Shame I hardly ever go out lol 😆
Anna, great post as always. Nothing to add. One thing I've noticed though. People are very predicrable with colors. At any given party there are a lot of women wearing black which is great, but if some lady wants to be noticed, in a good way, try dark blue, or dark brown, or whatever looks good on you. The same with winter clothing- dark, black. You gave great advice on trying beige, if white is too risky.
That's such a great point! Love the color suggestion! ❤️❤️❤️
My two year old son acts like Gollum every time he gets hold of my expensive lipsticks 😂🤣😂 So this was hilarious as usual but oh so informative ❤
Hey! Do our sons know each other?! 🤣🤣 Also why do they always choose the most expensive / newest oness 🤣
I love your videos and your personality- always end up laughing, now I’m gonna get a plant 😂
Love it. Thanks.
Nice insights and examples!!
Thank you, Linda! ❤️
Love your videos, you always make me laugh.
Thank you glad you like them!! ❤️❤️❤️
I liked it so much I subscribed.😊
Will you please share the Bobbi Brown moisturizer? BTW i love your channel!
Ur so helpful as always
Yes! Be nice to the mail person! I work mine to death with all of my on-line shopping.
When it comes to Lilysilk blouses, I really think they need darts sewn in them. I took an inexpensive polyester blouse into my seamstress and added darts for a nicer fit. What a difference.
You look fabulous in red.
Thank you, Lauren! ❤️❤️❤️
White looks classy
Example your soft looking couch perfect back drop Anna
Thank you, Grace!
(Proof 🌿🖖) My contribution I refer to as quiet dressing. Which includes SUBTLE fragrance. If you arrive prior to being seen, it matters not how well your clothes fit. If a big event, I do cardio on the day. The natural flush my skin shows really makes a difference. Bright eyes through drops or compress is as important as my accessories. PS. Annareid, I would truly look MY best in that blouse you are wearing. May I borrow? Just once? 🤭
Yes girl you got it! ❤️❤️🤣
I just bought a honey love undergarment for my sweater dresses. It is so comfortable and makes me look great. If you haven’t tried them you’ve got to. I’ve tried spanks and they’re always too small and uncomfortable.
Dear Ms Anna, you always give wonderful ideas/guidance!
I really enjoy it when you mention that...when you are put together, it is a manner of respect for...others!
I remember you stating this charming idea: keep a little...mystery! = not to show too much...clavage (or legs! laughter) at the same time; to keep it balanced. I always find it elegant when a lady knows that if...the shoulders are shown, the rest is...not. (or vice versa). If you think it relevant, I am pleased I added a tip to your lovely video!! Thank you Ms Anna!! helene :))
Yes love this! Excellent tips for sure! ❤️❤️❤️
Hope you will answer me (as you always do!) can I wear black beaded dress midi length to a Nov 19th evening wedding in “north Fl” appreciate your response. Your advice and style helps.
Woohooo! Anna has uploaded 🥳 Have a Happy Thursday everyone!
LOL thank you! ❤️❤️
@@ANNAREID29 🤗🤗
What jewelry would you wear with monochromatic white pants and white shirt?
You are so funny and I love all of your tips. I love seeing your outfits that you put together also. For reference how tall are you? Thanks and keep up the great videos!
Thank you so glad you enjoyed it! I am 5'6! ❤️❤️
If I wear my red sequin dress I will be sure to not wear anything to compete with it. Red is my standout color that everyone loves when I wear it. I sometimes wear a vintage inspired 40s or 50s era type dress which is definitely not what everyone is wearing but can look nice.
Love the sound of that!!! Yes let that beautiful red dress do all the talking… hope you get to wear that often ❤️
The French style is essentially effortless my French girlfriend always messes her hair up a bit before she goes out so she doesn't look like she tried too hard:)
Excellent advice. Fair and objective. Thank you. New Sub here.
When I saw your shirt, I immediately thought this video would be sponsored by LilySilk! 🤣
Fit is sooooo important. Make a tailor your best friend because we do not have mass produced bodies.
Gollum 😂😂😂😂😂 thx for the tips!
I have a similar blouse
So where did you get your mirror? I always stare at it because it is ridiculously beautiful.
Hi Anna, I absolutely love the color of your shirt, I could never find that, thus, never wear red lol.
I’m all about the monochrome, so feel free to mention it haha.
You know I use to accessorize much more, these day not so much. I’m into simpler jewelry now.
I do prefer oversized , but totally agree with a better fit.
Still not giving up my boyfriend jeans 😎 you absolutely have to groom, mani pedi, hair, teeth whitening deodorant lmao you know really important stuff !!! Hehehe
Awesome video young lady, always look forward to them 💕
Glad you liked this one! ❤️❤️❤️
@@ANNAREID29 I love them all , I’m Cuban Red and black to us significantly is acceptable for communism , I never wear that combination.
Your shirt is an absolutely beautiful color, May I ask where to purchase it? Have no idea what other color I would wear it with, maybe army green? Suggestion?
Always great videos and so happy your doing more. Maybe you could find a little time to do a styling section, im in, remember that. You never know what could come of it. Just saying! The person who has been wanting to do TH-cam videos forever! I would love to to have your confidence and humor
Oh, well timed. Things to think about as I face my wardrobe this morning, heading to work where for most of the day I'm going to a luncheon event at a Local Ritzy Hotel where I will be representing the community college that employs me. Hmm...I'm thinking black silk blouse, black midi skirt, black wool overcoat, black wool tights, black ankle boots or black-on-black cowboy boots, depending on which looks best...it's a rainy 39-degree-day here...
That sounds fancy! Love all those options!
Love monochrome!
But all white - I feel like everyone looks bigger in white. Thoughts?
my granddaughter's wedding is nov 12! my girls and oldest son were all under Nicole overnite and this morning!! originally it was a formal fall pallette--now, they just want everyone to show up and be counted and eat!!! so--i will bring the grandma long black skirt with the complement peplum top, and now i'm brinigng what would be a gunny sac on some, but it has a defined waist, ruching at neck and wrists midi length with POCKETS. had mother of bride laughing--cuz to this old girl everything goes with beautiful Dan Post boots--these in particular are my caramel studded--shaft is high enuf you dont see the sheath for my small dirk. it will be nice to put on mascara that is on me and not the cat's tail. i love little victories!! i'm five one, 123 lbs, silver hair, walk like im six feet tall (keeping up with older way taller brothers!) i should bring my own Guinness we shall see how this goes!!
Excellent tips/advice!!
Years ago I came across a book, How to Talk With Practically Anybody About Practically Anything by Barbara Walters. I required my kids to all read this. Whether you’re outgoing or shy, this will really help you be your best around people.
That’s such a great recommendation! I will have to check that out! ❤️
Start any conversation with a smile. Works wonders to break the ice.
Thanks for the tip.
I love wearing all white, or white with beige/taupe, it always looks elegant. I avoid black, especially near my too-pale face, it’s unflattering and done to death.
Black is a harder color than white, ironically! ❤️
I just finished watching people of Walmart eeeeek!
The thing that I do when going to a big event is to put on some good music, put on the outfits that I am thinking of wearing and walk in front of a full length mirror and watch how the outfit behaves. Plus put a chair in front of the mirror and sit down, that way you can see what is showing, and the best way to sit. That way you know that whatever you have on looks great…ie not showing your knickers lol. How to position your feet to look elegant too. Bend forward to see if you are showing too much cleavage. Plus, take note of current affairs so you don’t look dumb and have a topic to discuss with the person sitting next to you. Share your hobbies, and appreciation of nature, sports, art and culture, so you look informed and interesting …..love your videos! Xxxx
Super clean shoes are important in my eyes! Check the shoes before the event, do they need cleaning or even a visit at the cobbler?
100% agree with this! Great tip!
Agree!
❤️❤️❤️
Excellent ❤😊🥇
❤️❤️❤️
You look stunning 😍 love 💕 from India
Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
All good points. Can you please tell us where the striped camel and black turtleneck sweater is from?
Yes! Absolutely love this sweater bit.ly/3DzQ9cV I'm wearing a medium I also have a discount code REID12
You look lovely.
Thank you, Renee! ❤️❤️❤️
Hello Anna, I really like your channel! Can you please make a point about the women they have grey or white hair? Thanks, Nina xx
Thank you! What info are you looking for? I love grey / white hair on women ❤️❤️
@@ANNAREID29 Wow what a respond!!! Thank you Anna!!! Really I appreciate it. Anything that you choose as topic, I believe it will be perfect. I love your style and your way to share with us your suggestions.
Best regards from Thessaloniki, Greece!
You are a hoot. Lord of the Rings. Good video. Class reunions. Family party. Business Christmas Party. You just want to look great. Make sure your shoes are in good condition. And you can move well. Not moving like your feet are killing you or you can’t breath or you constantly are fixing something. A bow keeps getting undone or something rides up or slips down. Bra straps that don’t stay put. You want to look comfortable. I love high heals and can walk in them for quite a few hours without looking like I’m suffering. Actually, I’m not suffering. I can walk confidently and gracefully. If I can’t or if you cant, change shoes. I’ve chaperoned too many school dances and boy oh boy what I’ve seen. Lol.
Be interested and attentive of people around you...
So be clean and neat, dress simply in clothes that fit and are of classic styling, stand up straight and at least pretend you're socially comfortable. Check. As another comment says, wear good undergarments that fit! Check check!
Ha! That is an excellent way to put it 🤣 I often have to pretend I'm socially comfortable because most often I am not!
If I'm wearing a beautiful outfit but my hair is having a bad day (😝) I don't look good and don't feel good.
My hair is in charge of my look. 👑😉
So, if my hair has a great day, my clothes somehow also look well put together. 😘
My pyjamas, night gowns, night shirts, and underskirts are all silk. I feel like you are wearing pyjama top.
