Hello Anna. Can you please guide thoes who are sun sensetive and should avoid sunbeam directly, how they should wear in summer, and what kind of gloves and hats. Thank you.
I like to think I’m classic elegant but probably I’m a bit flamboyant 😂💕💕
Anna, you need to credit the instagram people whose photos you are “borrowing”
👍💐🥰
Please Anna , focus on elegant feminine seductive style .
"I treat myself with respect. I expect to be treated with respect." A powerful message of dressing elegantly! Let's take note everyone 😊
The thing is you shouldn't have to dress a certain way to earn respect which is why this video confuses me. She is a feminist and that kind of contradicts her whole point. why would she teach people mainly women how to dress in order to gain respect when shes saying women should already be respected. Shes contradicting herself.
@@crazyhorse3384 I disagree. You see, feminism challenges the inequalities that women face on a daily basis. If you read between the lines, it is all about women having the freedom of choice without the disdain of being looked down or judged, it's all about empowerment. Feminism arose from the restricted rights of women. Although today, there are a lot of varying ideologies of the movement, it boils down to one point- and that is choice. Why choice? It's because when there is freedom of choice in women, it means there is equality to the rights of men. Men have it better, men and women will never be equal, because they were not made to be equal, both are different. And with Feminism- which is the freedom to choose what you want to do (as long as law/morals permit), you can do practically anything you want that "men" are stereotypically the ones deemed valid to do.
I don't think Anna's message contradicts that at all. You see, she teaches modern elegance, that's the main idea of her channel. She doesn't teach women to dress this and that to earn respect from others. Respect starts from within. She is just providing help when you want to elevate how you feel with yourself, to strive to be more confident and in order for you to feel that way so people will feel that way about you because that's the message you want to deliver. But here, it's okay if you don't agree with her, because that's also your choice and I respect that. I'm just trying to give my two cents. 😊
Btw, she has podcast that actually tackles a similar issue/ contradiction on her beliefs which I believe really helps if you want to understand her stance 😃
@@crazyhorse3384 For the part of "women should already be respected" yes that is true. She advocates for it. AND she always follows up with the fact that being respected also comes with the work you put in. It comes in all ways, i.e. politeness, respect for others. She says that women should be respected because she believes that they must be respected (and they must be). Now, for women to work on being respected is another story. You can't just act rashly and barabaric, then demand to be respected. That doesn't work right? Again, respect comes hand in hand with the work you put in to achieve that. If you want to be respected more, then respect yourself more and the others around you. You need to act like someone who deserves to be respected at the utmost level if you want to be respected at the utmost level. The respect you give out, and the respect you show you give yourself will always come back, if you do it the right way.
@@crazyhorse3384 Your interpretation lacks nuance. Firstly, be mindful not to refer to feminism as though it were a 'hive mind' as it most certainly is not. There are a *significant* number of feminists who vehemently oppose many of the values taught on this channel. In fact, many of the teachings here are in direct opposition of 3rd wave feminism.
Secondly, do people deserve respect, regardless of attire? Absolutely. From a humanity standpoint, that is a given of standard morality. But that is not what is being referred to and this is why your ideology, in it's literal form, is flawed.
If a woman goes into a corporate job interview wearing a belt width, tight skirt, visible, riding-up thong underwear, and breasts near popping out of a torn, stained, t-shirt. I assure you, her appearance is judged negatively and it unquestionably impacts the interviewer's impression and consideration.
It would be unwise to take things in a literal sense, when the subject itself requires critical thought and a consideration of intended nuance.
That's your opinion because you believe that people owe you certain behaviors for just being which is not at all a reflection of real life. The truth is, people will treat you the way you treat yourself and those who don't get a rude awakening.
I liked the use of the word “alluring” instead of “sexy.” I just feel that “alluring” is sexy but hints at it instead.
Yes, alluring sounds better
I think it is because sexy is overdone it almost cheapens the word. Alluring is rarely used so it has a higher value in a sentence
I like her use of "feminine" there
@@Briae I agree- it’s sophisticated.
@Harshit Kapoor us
There’s something about Anna’s videos that just makes me love being a woman😻.
Femininity is power. There's nothing wrong with being feminine. I think woman have failed to believe they're strong by behaving like man :( no judge on those girls, but there's nothing wrong with embracing your feminine side and girls have to stop shaming woman just because they embrace this feminine side
@@marte1376 i totally agree with you!
Yeah
Yeah
Yes
She has changed my life from growing up in the hood to learning to be an elegant lady so much work still needs to be done and 💴 well spent tho
I would like to see how a person can change to be elegant, I'm on track too and i want some inspiration
Same! I grew up in a small farming town in the middle of next to nowhere in New Zealand. Elegance isn’t an everyday thing but I’m trying 😂
Yessss girl I feel you
Agreed! My issue is consistency. I might have a couple of nice outfits but most of my clothes are very casual and I find it hard to look elegant allll the time.
@Harshit Kapoor New Zealand
I'm a very masculine woman. Ever since I was a kid, I was always surrounded by my male friends and lost my feminine side along the way. But at times I really wanna be feminine and elegant. So here am I. 💃🏻
And I was the one who loved flowy skirts , dresses but always being told to wear those jeans , sneakers , keep short hair etc and to be trendy by everyone😢. Hence kinda lost my feminine fashion sense out there. But now I want to look elegant and feminine again so here I am.
I have similar experience. I was never feminine or trendy... Fraze - "Gray mouse" describes me well. I really wanna do something about it, because you know... I am absolutely not happy with what kind of men I am attracting looking this way. And also it does no longer reflect who am I. I was gray mouse inside out as a teenage girl and in my twentis, but getting close to 30 I feel more secure within myself and I want to show it through my cloths
That's happened to me too. Grew up with brother's, no sisters, lots of male cousin, only one female cousin. Plus more stepbrothers. I have to surround myself with more female energy.
@@subratanandy2142 same girl, I love to wear dresses and skirts but my mom(she is very masculine woman) alwys demotivates me for wearing such things ...
I work in male-dominated IT. It's very easy to lose your feminine side there.
anna chooses her words carefully. and that is true elegance!
"Make a woman feel like a bargain." I've never heard it phrased this way, but that's exactly how I think it can look.
So well put.
*"Elegance and femininity go hand in hand."*
💃👌💥
what does elegance have anything to do with feminism? I'm being serious i don't see how you're connecting the two
Imagine being 19 and dressing elegantly...everyone thinks im crazy😅but i love it andit makes me more confident
I'm 15 but like to dress elegant because I feel elegance can never go wrong 😄
23 and they call me I'm not spontaneous and something since I don't wear sporty clothes.. 😉 who cares especially my really friends appreciate it and understand that's who I am and importantly I 'm totally confident and comfortable with it
That's actually really great & most important. It dosen't really matter what other's think more than what our close one's feel. And dressing sporty or anything like that is just not my type😊
@@priimiily mine neither,i just feel so good when im well dressed.Also don't care about others opinion,its just funny how im always asked "where are you going dressed like this?"
@@abidemna4950 soo happy for you💕 I'm so glad that us("the youth" idk how to say it😅) are getting more and more into elegance and femininity
Sending lovee🤗
The intro is everything. About world full of Kardashians. Let's be ourselves not someone else or Instagram "models"
so true⚡️✨🌟
One of my fav intro's thus far,
L❤️VE'D IT! 😂🤣
💯
Exactly 👌🏻
I think it’s more classy to avoid putting down other styles of dress and just focus on your own image.
I remember when I was out of work and took classes at the unemployment office. I dressed up to attend the classes since I was looking for administrative work. It was amazing the compliments I received. I dressed just as I would if I was going to an interview even though it was only a class. Definitely stood out!
I love that Anna uses woman of different skin color in her examples. It really does give people of color some ideas too
This. 👍🏽
I just finished the quiz and I am an ‘elegant feminine classic’ which I think is spot on!
How did you take the quiz? It will not come up for me
Go to the Facebook messenger app
@@victoriagidiagba524 How does it work? :/
I can’t find the quiz either, any help?
@@MB-xx1jb i just found out! Tap it on google :) then the messenger will pop up
I love that Anna does not shame / call out anyone when she talks about the silly celebrity trends or cheap looking clothes. I know she made a cheeky Kardashian joke but generally she shows images for the positive examples and doesn’t show negative examples
I dress in a 1940s style every single day. I have found so many styles of clothing that look elegant, feminine, and luxurious. One of my favorites is the look created by Dorothy O’Hara - she was the queen of draping and “glorifying” the feminine figure. It just goes to show how you can absolutely be seductive and elegant without needing to show much skin at all.
Even if we aren’t necessarily the most elegant in everyday life, these videos are really helpful for different formal events and for workwear! I have a feeling these habits will eventually take over my entire wardrobe though!
Omg Anna what a glow up after the Austria staycation!!❤️❤️❤️😱😱
I tought the same!!!❤️
Does it show that much? 😃
@@AnnaBeyOfficial yeeeeeees ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@AnnaBeyOfficial yes! You have a total wonderful new light! You are literally glowing!❤️🔝😍
LOL, I did not know Anna was/had been staying in Austria. I kept staring at her yellow top and thinking it looked like some traditionally inspired Austrian shirt/dress. I was trying to imagine what the whole outfit looked like, and I'm most certain it was purchased there. As an American, I lived in Austria in 2001, so perhaps that is why I was thinking that.
When you said “looking tacky & looking cheap” my first thought was fashion nova & pretty little thing clothes... 😬
Pretty little things are the worst...🤦♀️
🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧
@@szepatel6468 Agreed! And the quality of their clothes is terrible too!
I heard girls at my work talking about fashion nova and how much they love it and I am over here like🙄
Who else loves the introduction: “my dear elegant ladies”? 🤩
Ladies if you havent checked out Annas podcast please give it a try. She digs much deeper into her philosophy on elegance but its presented in a more 'lets have a chat' kind of way. I, myself very much enjoy it 😊
Curating a wardrobe takes a lot of time and thinking. It's a slow process regardless of financial means. It should not be rushed. Trial and error every time we add a piece. Personally I spend a lot of time on Instagram and Google looking for outfits or simply combinations that can work for me or I may search for inspiration on how to combine pieces that I already have.
Anna, I'm starting to love and respect you more and more. Thank you so much for being mentor for so many women to find how valuable they are.❤
I needed this video ! Could you make a video about what to wear and what to avoid on various occasions such as : meeting in laws, to a lunch/ diner date, running errands... And videos about each different elegant style more in depth with exemples, what to avoid, what to wear in order to fit in the specific elegant style presented. If there are any grammatical mistakes please feel free to correct me English is not my first language ❤️✨
examples not exemples, small mistake
I think there is another style you've missed: The Classic Elegant Minimal style. The woman who exhibit this style are Angelina Jolie, The Duchess of Sussex and Katie Holmes. I'm very attracted to this style.
That is traditional classic
Anna, u changed my life. After being hurt and I want to level up myself, I found your channel and I learnt many things here. Really thank you
OOh I'm elegant classic! Thank you however at 62 I don't feel old, I believe what you wear underneath your clothes
and the perfume you wear, helps you hold yourself well as well as feeling more feminine. 🙏🌹
How did you take the quiz I tried so many times and it didn't go throw
@@celiacl3844 I just entered the address she gave and it went through to messenger where an auto reply appeared then had the test.
@@TheHighPriestessStudio you used the link? Or types it on Google because it didn't work wither way for me
@@celiacl3844 she said it so l just typed it out on Google and it took me straight to messenger. Sorry l can’t help you any further.
@Harshit Kapoor Australia
I really like how you broke down these style personalities. My professional style is different from my personal style and these categories are helpful for me when I am creating my closet.
Btw....you looked stunning ☺️
This was so refreshing. I'm so glad you became more inclusive about color, pattern and a more artistic look.
I just love you and everything about you! You're like a girlfriend who gives honest and valuable advice. I play your videos while I'm cleaning and organizing or just having some personal time... And listening to your content just mages me so happy. Thank you so much! Can't wait until you start your school again! ❤️
Thanks to you I’ve finally discovered I’m a elegant fashionista. I’ve always admired Victoria Beckham style even since she was the posh spice
Imagine being only 15 and you have found Anna she is so amazing I have learnt a lot manners and etiquettes following her videos
Wish i had her advice when i was young, would have helped with my self confidence.
I was so concerned when I first saw your videos because I thought it would make feel non femininine women like myself feel out of place but you truly empowered me into accepting my femininity and being proud of it. Being around guys so long made me lose that part of me and it’s been hard to get it back but your videos are the greatest help I could get.
I am classic feminine, so I own some neutral pieces and some colorful and a few patterned pieces in my wardrobe. It keeps my style fresh and up to date. I tried some more seductive pieces over the years, but never felt comfortable and confident wearing them so I simply donated those pieces. I’m confident and outgoing, and I feel that my personality shines through wearing the classic feminine style. You are so right Anna, being elegant makes others instantly look at you with a different eye, and treat you with more respect. That is, if you are yourself respectful of others 😊
It's Sunday here in Nigeria, I look forward to Sundays because of your videos 😊
Same here
Same here too
Ana it's amazing how you cover a wide personality. Seeing Lupita made me sooooo excited... flamboyant!!!
My elegance idol is Dita Von Teese.❤☺
Me too
Yes She will be feminine seductive . I love her too as well as monica Bellucci
She is THE seductive woman. How cool she is
I love the way you greet us with a sunny smile and also thank you for acknowledging that we all have our own type of energy!
I’m 22 and I felt the “dressing up like the Kardashian’s.” Every time I go out or go for a drink at the bars, everyone my age dresses up with leggings and tight crop tops while I wear my fashionista feminine clothing... I feel too young (and even embarrassed) to dress up and wear a pair of heels because my casual is not everyone else’s casual 😅🤦🏻♀️
you will stand out from the crowd in a really nice and admirable way!
Try going to more upscale places as well x then you're also likely to meet women who are similar to you. (I'm 21 and I dress well, I avoid venues and events with anyone under 30 because I refuse to follow trends)
Be yourself wherever you go. You will stand out from all of the others that look the same as all the others.
Sounds like you’re on a different level...so get a new crowd that is up to YOUR standards!
Anna, you are so gorgeous here🤩⭐️⭐️Thanks for another empowerment 🌷In a world, where it is quite hard to thrive as an independent woman, you are my guiding light💫
I feel like the best rule for sensuality in the outfit it's to think beforehand about one feature of your outfit that says sexy. It can be showing legs or a little bit of cleavage or maybe extenuating your waist. It can be adding those high heels to a midi dress to elongate your lines or even styling your hair into the main piece that will bring focus to you. This way even if you cover everything else you still exude all that feminine energy ❤️
..Thank the heavens you mentioned the Kardashians .I was looking at Instagram 2 days ago .All I could was semi naked celebrities !! Blac Chyna,Kim K ,Nikki
Love that you mentioned there’s no “one size fits all” for elegance. That should be said!
Sincerely, an elegant classic fashionista
I am so distracted by your top!!! Such pretty color and style. I like how you styled your hair too. Femininity is Sexy. 💛
I love the way she says 'laydies'
".....all those elements that make a woman 👏🏾 feel 👏🏾 like 👏🏾 a 👏🏾 bargain." I felt those words....that's it EXACTLY!
I'm kind of shy person and I've always love neutral colors and simple style so people often think that I'm elder or boring . I'm 20 and they think that I should show more skin and I used to feel a bit insecure about it but thanks to your videos that insecure has gone.
You won't believe, but I watched The devil wears Prada just yesterday (again)!!! And now I see some fotos in your video. Incredible.
By the way, you look radiant!
😊
By the way***
@@totochanel2251 yes, of course 🤦♀️ I changed it, thanks.
@La Fa The foto you see before she beguins to talk.
I enjoy being situational and thus incorporate all the styles depending on where and what I am doing. Thank you for your beautiful videos Anna.
Im 61 yrs and asian living in Scandinavia.I like your style inspiring videos.
That top is STUNNING on you.
The points you made are clear and flexible with a wide range of ideas that are all encompassing to any woman. This is definitely a choice video.👌🏻 Beautiful, Anna 💜
I love the longer videos Anna, thank you for the high-quality content once again.
I am elegant fashionista 😌
Yeah I love this word " MY DEAR ELEGANT LADIES" Sounds so elegant 😌 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
In a world full of Kardashians, sense and fashion.... I love this
Love that you are bringing out your personality more and more in videos!
This is so true. Standing out in a good way. 💕💕
Thanks for being my guide to elegance. My own mother's mom took off and she missed out on the guidance of feminity and possibility of elegance, it couldn't be passed to me. Learning from her is liking going to a girl's prepatory school and getting those things I missed. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for making this content! You truly inspired me to become the best version of myself and start my TH-cam channel in Spanish because this type of messages need to be spread! Greetings from Mexico 🖤🖤🖤
I think that as long as someone embraces elegance and has a deep understanding of its meaning then things tend to come to a balanced level almost naturally... What I saw from my personal experience is that although I used to dress too provocatively and tacky, when I learned what elegance and femininity is my style took the "elegant seductive way" with a little effort and time! Now my taste is changed so it just happens! My point is, girls create your personal style depending on what makes you feel like yourself but in a higher stage from what you used to be at! Anna thank you so much for helping us women!!!!
I just love this!! ❤ You are such a delightful lady! I enjoyed this video and content. I always thought of elegant in one specific way. Thank you for opening my eyes and educating me on this!! Keep inspiring g us and have a blessed day!😊
You make things easier to be understood, I do appreciate everything and I love your introduction. Thanks
Here in Brazil we like colors
I was just thinking about this yesterday!! 😍
Hitting likes so TH-cam algorithm can pickup on the suggestion and more women can benefit ❤️
Elegant classic. Took the test ❤😊
Hi Anna!
Anna u look amazing the new diet worked wonders💯
I'm a girl on the bike with boy type of cloths and still watch this.... Maybe one day I could be like a lady even if for a shor time.
Just learn manners and dress up nicely. It's not hard.
There is a time and a place for everything.
Look elegant on you bike. People will think "who is THAT?!?!" as you glide by🚲
You can be a biker gal and still be elegant. Just find your kind of elegant.
@@bigboi6338
Totally👍
That yellow top/dress on you is just WOW
Oh my god Anna! You look stunning ❤️❤️
I'm glad she mentioned your natural energies because I follow energy profiling and Dressing Your Truth with Carol Tuttle (I'm not affiliated, just a fan.) In DYT you dress according to your energy type as a way to honor it. Someone with a quieter energy is not going to feel comfortable dressing flamboyantly. You can dress to your energy type in a way that isn't boring. You can add color that's not too over the top for your type. Or if you have a higher energy, you are not going to look your best in a softer, dull color. It's all about honoring who you are and it actually makes you look younger, not older. It's all in how you do it.
wow
Our lovely and elegant Anna, You always look chic and elegant but in this video I must say You shine like a ray of sunshine 🤩
And of course Thank You for the video as always very helpful and on point
Ooooh love it already and haven’t even been 30 sec
I enjoy your videos and they have made a difference in my life and how I dress now. Thank you Anna Bey. 🤗❤️☺️
Our girl is uploading!!!! YES!!!! 💗🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Yes! Energy is such and important concept, I am so happy and with a girly voice, that when I wear traditional elegant clothing I am taken more seriously and respected like I deserve, without looking older but rather my age because otherwise I look way younger
@Harshit Kapoor Mexico :) why?
Ma'am lots of love from India 🤗🤗🤗
Wow Anna, thanks for this kind of videos, with them I feel like I fit in. In my case. I received a higher education and I always had an eye on clothes, so I like to look elegant in my own terms, but sometimes society doesn’t like this and have a lot of prejudices about it.
Great video! Thank you for your work Anna, its fantastic how you wake up the best in women!
What are your favourite shops from each style?? I really need to update my style. I haven't worn heels since my spine injury, but I don't like flats. I need to find some great, classy pumps.
Try Mules by Charles and Keith !
I love Olivia Palermo’s style and she has such style and class when I met her in nyc at a store I worked it !
Thank you ! This helps 💛
I really prefer your 15 minute videos over the short 6' ones 🥰 I loved this video and the very important topic
She is the most elegant and independent woman on social media I know❤
I loved the intro. You are right as always
Good to acknowledge different cultural preferences bc honestly, I find "some" styles to be boring, unflattering and pointless.
I have color so I need color in my
Life.
Also,I think that femininity is key, not euro fashion beliefs. European beauty standards are definitely not for everyone but was forced onto people.
This video is more realistic.
Yes! Elegance must be culturally inclusive ✨
I am just starting to develop my style so I think I will start with traditional and in a few years with more fashion experience I will add in trends. Thank you for the tips!
Anna looks elegant , sexy & classy. Basically , she looks & is Awesome !
Anna Bey, thanks you for sharing everything to look, respectable and looking good 😊🥰
Your hair is definitely is definitely getting more volume. 👍
"My dear elegant ladies......" ---this continues to be such a refreshing empowering greeting to keep us going on our journey to go against the tsunami of Kar-trash-ianism! Thank you Anna...please keep up the wonderful work you're doing!
Anna, everything about you is so elegantly sweet beautiful... i loved and enjoyed watching this video over and over again...it also makes me feel looking good and beautiful applying some tips you had shared❤️
Finally a bit longer video!!!!
“Like a grey mouse” hilarious! Love it
I'm an elegant classic, and I started to add prints. It really wakes up my wardrobe and attracts attention in a good way. I have added florals, polka dot, stripes and plaid
I love your video Anna.I love your style.I love the fact that elegance comes in different styles.I took a style quiz years ago,I am a traditional style.I love floral patterns and pastel colors.Thank you for your inspiring video.❤
I would love to see a video about elegant music! For example, tips to create a lovely playlist on different occasions like date night, etc., and your personal preference 🖤 🎶
I think Melania Trump looks so beautiful and elegant! Ivanka also does of course.
Yes! She *always* looks so put together. Definitely a fashion role model!
I feel like it isn’t the real style of Melania. I don’t know why but it always feels so staged. But Ivanka on the other hand feels genuine
@@epicafan123 I love them both, it has to be a little staged bc she is the first lady! but you can tell that they both have very fine and refined elegant taste in luxury designer clothing that they choose themselves. I love her extremely high heels too!
jamie Jamie so true I love ivankas clothes
@@epicafan123 because she doesn’t look like it in her before photos not even back when she was dating/engaged to donald trump i would say it’s her stylists not hers probably.
Will go do the quiz!!! What a fabulous video. Super informative, fun also.
Your content never the same. On point!!
Thank You Ms Bey☀️💝
