Could you do winter travel outfits? Staying warm but stylish?
Yes, I am traveling to Europe this winter and would love some advice on wardrobe.
She made a video already
th-cam.com/video/q5W89i6xzjw/w-d-xo.html
There is a video,just scroll down in her list
Yes please
Yes please, Anna! My husband and I have an Italian/Greek holiday planned for this winter, and I would love some outfit inspiration 💕
Ladies, wear modest clothes and do not be afraid of the heat. The more you cover the body, the more it will be protected from the direct heat of the sun. And she's right, the choice of material is the most important. This is a sincere advice of a veiled girl from a country where the temperature in the summer rises to 45 degrees. Your speech is very wonderful and sane Anna.
And be vitamin d deficient? No thanks.
This is what people fail to understand! They think exposing more will keep them cool but in reality it is actually the exact opposite. The reason why the locals of dessert always cover up from head to toe.
So true. As a pale redhead, I can't expose much skin without getting sun poisoning anyway. The few times I tried to "get a tan" -- can we say "lobster girl?!" -- I was so much hotter than when I cover up.
I particularly liked that you stressed 4 and 5 -visiting religious sites and respecting them. I live in a tourist destination and I feel strongly that people should dress modestly for church visits.
Agree
It’s such a myth that wearing less clothing in the heat makes you cooler! Recently amidst the NYC heat wave I began to wear longer sleeves, pants, and maxi skirts in breathable fabrics (for modesty & sun/ pollution protection)- I’ve actually been more comfortable and cooler than I ever was wearing shorts and tanks.
Its also antiaging as sun damage is the biggest cause of collagen loss the skin's framework. Once fried and damaged who wants to spend more money correcting problems that could be avoided like skin cancer! Most people in hot countries take a siesta for good reason
True! What does the people in always hot countries like Africa wear? Long cotton Kaftans! The skin is protected from the sun and every step fans them air! They know whats best!
I agree! I come from a tropical country and I swear by wearing pants on humid or scorching hot days. And as someone has alreqdy pointed out in the above comment, “extra fabric” also helps block sunlight from directly hitting the skin.
I do agree with you on this one, I rather wear long sleeves, maxi in summer, the heat of the sun protects me especially sunburn in my arms.
I agree!
I have Lupus and other autoimmune illnesses which makes me extremely sensitive to the sun.
☀️
I wear long sleeves cooling UPF 50 tops, pretty hats and Maxy skirts or pants.
If I have to deal with this condition I try to make it look elegant.
Anna, thank you for educating me on linen years ago. The majority of my summer wardrobe is linen and it is fantastic for keeping me cool and looking a bit elevated (much classier than a cotton t-shirt). I also find it very disrespectful when tourists wear inappropriate attire in places of worship. We should think of ourselves as representatives of the country, city or town we are from when traveling, so dress well.
I also agree. Ive been in churches were people have not dressed modestly with lots of decolletage/leg showing and I find it disrespectful as well
It's more inappropriate not dressing properly at a church service on a Sunday! Most ppl want comfort when they're travelling.
I'm all for linen and dress well, actually Anna gave tips on linen before and I must say it really helped my look in Lisbon, Venice and the costa del sol the last couple of years however I'm Catholic not Muslim and as Christians we are supposed to see past dress as its superficial ie some leg, some cleavage doesnt offend me even in church. But I do agree hot pants or worse cycle shorts look bad on most people
Very true
I was in Santa María del Mar in Barcelona, with a dress AND a pashmina to cover, the guards let me in, but the next girls were wearing shorts and spaghetti straps and they told them “It is closed!”.
My go to is always carry a scarf. You can cover your head if hats are not for you (when entering a cathedral) and a scarf will be a quick fix if you have a little spill on your blouse. Tie the scarf to your bag or tuck it in your bag.
I appreciated the point you made: "showing respect to others feelings, culture and tradition" - so important! Thanks for the suggestions
I try not to dress up or look “expensive” as a tourist. I try to blend in with the locals as much as possible. Many places I visit are impoverished (but very beautiful) countries. As such, the people are poor and need only an excuse to mug you or worse. Leave jewellery at home and don’t look “expensive” unless you want to be a target. PS pants and leggings are harder to remove if someone attacks or attempts to r*pe you. Function over fashion unless you’re vacationing on a private yacht! Please
She mentioned she focused on Europe.
@@renatac4856 yeah, because NO crime against tourists ever occurs in Europe 🙄
@@fluffytail6355 Nobody said that, but you don’t have to be underdressed just because a crime may occur. Crimes occur anytime, anywhere. Better stay home according to that logic. And I’m from Rio, Brazil, so I know what I’m talking about. I was never mugged in Rio de Janeiro in my life and I dress like “an European tourist” daily. Btw, we wear bikinis in shopping malls. Of course you can’t do that in India, for example, but Europe? Common sense, please. Anna isn’t saying “wear all your expensive jewellery”; she’s saying “wear this hat, wear that midi dress”… in Europe! I did a road trip in Italy for a whole month and, honestly, pretty much every Italian woman would wear the most expensive items walking the streets. Fancier stuff than what Anna suggests.
@@fluffytail6355 these crimes happen in America too just from going from state to state
Yes!
Love the point about churches, unfortunately this common sense and courtesy is not so common! It's also important to note that in many of the bigger cathedrals in Europe, the staff will not let you enter if you are wearing inappropriate clothing and they may ask you to buy a covering for the duration of your visit - i've seen this many times. So it's better to be respectful and prepared rather than be embarrassed at the entrance!
Especially in more conservative countries, for example orthodox Christian, I always carry a light scarf with me that can serve as a cover up or skirt (some orthodox churches will not allow a woman in pants), but also be useful inside if the air conditioning is too strong, to sit on, etc
Not only temples, in Bali even immigration offices provide sarung that you can borrow to cover you up before you enter the building and get the service. First timers sometimes see that as annoying but just because you're in holiday, doesn't mean you can ignore courtesy and manners
@@riehafsah4469 yes.....courtesy and manners, as well as the customs of the country you are visiting.
I love, LOVE this hair on you. In my opinion, it suits you so much better than the bleach blonde you had before. It looks way more natural and balanced with your skin tone and undertone. 😊
I thought the same! ❤️
Hello Andrea How are you doing today How's everything going?
Yes its perfect
Perfectly agree with you and if I may add, my dear friend, I find that Anna looks also particularly well in a soft, low chignon, and in any case, when the hair is gathered behind the nape of the neck.
I think linen is seen differently in different cultures, because I was raving about how posh linen looks to my friend from Indonesia and she said in her culture linen is mostly worn by the servants and help staff of rich families. I was a little bit surprised, but it makes sense as it's a hardy, rough and cooling material that's perfect for work attires in the tropics.
so what do the upper class wear there ? silk or cotton?
@@ah5721 I’m from Indonesia most of the upper class here mostly wear silk or blended silk
I think because its always summer here in indonesia 😀
Leather shoes cant be worn as well if youre touristing in bali 🙃
@@theindobabe7425 what kind of shoes are recommended then?
I pack golf and Eddie Bauer travel collection type high performance wrinkle free tailored clothes (skirt or dress, 2 pants 5 tops) a big silk scarf and a cashmere cardigan. To sleep -a slip. Polished leather loafers and hotel room slides/slippers. A paperback book. Can look put together for a couple of weeks with just one carry on bag. In my cosmetics bag is an 1” square of laundry bar soap. My travel wear core, is mostly a dedicated collection. Handbag = tote with VIP stuff pinned in. Often hear, ‘that’s all you brought?’ Organized simplicity beats chaos! Besides most destinations do have stores.
Your advice is always so refreshing! Do you have any advice for younger ladies? Say between the ages of 14-18? It’s so hard to be classy as a teenager while retaining that youthful teenage look. How do I find that balance? As an 18 year old I do find myself dressing in a manner that ages me which is a shame because I would like to look young while I am young if that makes sense
For fashion, you can look into the preppy/academia style!
@@a.b.2405 I did try that for a while! It was cute but not really my style, at the end of the day I do tend towards a more classic, timeless look but it can be hard to dress in such a way with some of the things I do with friends and whatnot. For example today I am going bowling and will probably end up wearing a pair of paper bag denim shorts and and a cropped linen top. Would I like to wear something a little different? Absolutely but I have no clue how to balance it out like that in these kinds of situations
May I suggest that you begin with the simple rule of showing only one body part? For example.; shorts or a cropped top, not both.
Hi, I'm 17 myself and splitting my wardrobe between classic and youthful attire works fine. For example: white shorts/skirt, white/black/brown leather sneakers (+ matching bag), white button-up and a trendy top
classic prep look
Linen blend garments have the appearance and feeling of linen but less wrinkly.
Major key because pure linen looks so untidy after a few hours
I tend to always keep a light scarf with me just in case I come across a beautiful church that I would like to visit. You just pull it out and wrap it around to keep your shoulders covered.
Same!! And a lot of times, it’s really cold in museums and places of worship. I carry one nice neutral large scarf on all my trips
These are all great tips, Anna. I have "touristed" a lot in Europe in summer and usually manage to look so much like a local that tourists ask me for directions and locals speak in their own language to me.
Looking "expensive" is not the goal though. There are many expensive clothes and accessories that look less than ideal. We want to look classy, elegant, timeless, at-ease, quality, elevated.
Same for me! Obviously, I have a sign on my back that says "Ask me for directions" (in all languages). Which is funny, because I am one of those people with zero sense of direction!
Expensive clothes and looking expensive in classy elegant timeless at ease quality elevated clothes is not the same thing. So expensive looking is perfectly appropriate 👍🏻
Hello kas how are you doing today How's everything going?
Wearing clothes and accessories that advertise “expensive” is a dangerous choice because it makes you a target of thieves who, unfortunately, gather near tourist destinations.
Exactly!
For shoes, I always opt for espadrilles for style and comfort.
Agreed
When I’m in Europe I love wearing linen palazzo pants with a wide band sleeveless linen top in the same color. I always have a long scarf in my bag and when I go into churches that scarf turns into a shawl to cover my shoulders! If I go out to a nice dinner, that scarf is around my neck and ups my outfit tremendously!
Hello Margot how are you doing today How's everything going?
Ballet flats are elegant & comfortable in my opinion
I don’t wear sneakers unless I’m at the gym. I prefer sandals. When my man and I travel, or are in Boston on the weekends, I always wear my linen, summer, or maxi dresses with sandals and I feel so comfortable. I also love admiring other ladies’ outfits while we walk-so many different styles-classy, simple, comfortable, and beautiful all at once.
Thank you for this video and that you mentioned to respect churches/temples. I've always felt so outdated when I paid attention to my clothes while going to churches and it means a lot to me to hear it from someone else and on the TH-cam video of all places. So thank you again ❤️
Wow, me too
There are some churches that don't even allow people in who are not dressed appropriately (Milan cathedral for example)
Thank you Anna for pointing out the disrespectful attire at churches. When I was a kid, most churches did not allow tourists or anyone for that matter, who was wearing sleeveless shirt. We had to put a jacket or shawl over us. Now time has changed. I would say that okay, sleeveless is maybe okay, but still, some outfits these tourists wear are so appalling and too bad that church no longer refuses them.
yes, I remember those times too. Now its probably considered discrimination or something ridiculous :D
Ironic that anyone is worried about being modest in churches when they themselves are responsible for so much evil.
@@SydneyDiva True, every human being is sinful. That's why Jesus died on the cross so that we could be reconciled with God when we genuinely ask for forgiveness and repent our sins.
Churches are pointless anyway. Go to a therapist.
Suveran Lady: Even though I totally get you And I think the rule itself Is a little bit sexist, it Is not just the church itself you disrespect, these places means a lot to big amount of ppl. And especially as tourists And guests in foreign countries And cultures, we should Always be respectful.
I have photos of my grandmother as a young woman in the 1940s looking very elegant traveling wearing A-line dresses with tennis shoes. Her tennis shoes were the ones that didn’t have more than 2 lace crossovers.
As a Muslim girl who always need to wear modest clothes your advice is very appreciate because when I travel to Europe I don't feel myself keeping up with people there.. but you showed me how i can be with simple great tips
Dear Anna, excellent advice, classy and chick. Thank you. I truly wish more women in this world would understand certain basic rules for dressing. Too often the answer is: " Elegant? Why? I want to feel comfortable." One can be comfy in any outfit as long as it is the right size and the right material. Have a wonderful summer.
True that! Finding the elegent&comfortable clothes at the same time is difficult though - just as the example with leather sneakers. But it is doable, we just have to walk that extra mile. And this does wonders, my boyfriend even told me that I look so comfy in my elegant clothes.
So very true.
Lately, in NYC , many dress like they are in yesterday's laundry.
What bothers me that her perception of elegant is very outdated. And I agree that wearing nicer outfits even while traveling is nice, it’s just that it can be variety of different styles. For example in Paris or Berlin her outfits would look very touristy. It’s not how people dress there. So you also have to consider where you are going to maybe fit in the general vibe better.
I love watching Anna as everything she says is exactly what my mom taught me when growing up. And now that I follow my moms tips, I feel really awkward and out of place as ...most people don´t dress like this. So it´s really nice to see her talking about these things as I´m not alone anymore, others do wear things like this too!
if you dont have a huge budget, go to a thrift shop and try on dresses and you will find one that is very comfortable.
I just spent 40 bucks at the thrift store for vacation dresses. All brand new!
@@Jakilyn That is so cool, I hope you have a blast
Oh Anna, you look absolutely STUNNING in this yellow dress! I could barely focus on what you were saying in the video because I couldn‘t stop marvelling over how beautifully this dress and color suits you 🤭
I appreciate your respect for touring places like churches and museums, etc. I agree 💯 and will add more linen pieces to my summer wardrobe. I clearly don't have enough. 😊
Anna, I have been watching your videos for around four years now and you always have great advice. I love your modest take on elegant dressing as there is a misconception that you cannot look good unless you are showing a lot of skin. I was able to understand my body type and style personality and also was able to narrow down my style (for me it’s vintage inspired while still looking modern and classic) and I have never felt so confident in my clothes. I absolutely love my wardrobe! Thank you!
I love this! I try to have a balance only because I sometimes want to be cute but not look to touristy. Depending on the location and if there is a risk for getting robbed or getting overcharged!
White sneakers do look great while sightseeing, but I just can't put down my wedges, even if I have to walk the whole day. Linnen dresses and 10 cm wedges are my go-to haha
Anna always has the best tips! Comfort and style can go hand-in-hand wherever you go
Love this! We don't have to wear athletic clothes to be comfortable! Spot on!
You've helped me so much Anna with my style and on my insta whenever some ladies ask me where do you get inspo I often mention you ♥️ been taking notes for years and fully agree with each & every point!!
About respecting part, I agree 1000%. People who have a "I don't give a f*ck" attitude are then surprised why others stop respecting them. I think most people mistake the concept of that mentality where that is beneficial to apply and where it is not a good idea.
This right here!
I agree with your tips. I think it’s about time travelers start dressing like adults and not overgrown children. People need to stop saying they will be hot and uncomfortable if one dresses with dignity. Thank you for the plug about the shorts and tanks in places of worship. It’s totally inappropriate. 💕💕
Thank you! I am so tired of women wearing work out gear literally everywhere! I agree, wearing revealing clothes in churches and cathedrals just make you look ignorant!
Your advice about elevated warm weather looks was spot on. To a summer festival I recently attended, I wore a sleeveless white blouse (tip: wear it buttoned lower than the right button, use a small 🧷 safety pin to secure the low cut look) and high wasted skirt in a beautiful red and gold print fabric…giving leg, carrying a fabulous bag and well chosen jewelry, and my big shades. I stood out from the booty shorts, tank top wearing women. My upscale look pulled a fine looking well-heeled Man. We had a great afternoon listening to the live performances and talking. We have been spending time ever since. First impressions! 😉
This is one of the best videos you’ve done. I appreciate them all, but especially like the idea of respect.
Thank you for this video! I've always been a "jeans" person, but this summer I've started wearing more linen, and linen DEFINITELY elevates the look when worn right. Plus I didn't realize how COOLING linen can be when it's hot outside!
Thank you. This video is exactly what I've been waiting for years from you Anna. Living in Bali where it's "summer" everyday and moving around on two wheels everywhere.. I don't have any problem with dresses to wear to stay neat & classy around Bali. Besides the culture prefers anyone to dress modestly anyway, so I'm comfortable with that. Footwear; now that's tricky for me. Riding scooter, walking on uneven pavement, going to somebody's house which only access is the dirt road, buying groceries in pasar (local market).. Heels sometimes won't do
It took over 20 years but I literally cleared out all my clothes and bought more things that fit a capsule wardrobe. So more high-end pieces that mix and match in more neutral colours, silks, satins, mohair for Winter and all Linen for Summer! I avoid fast fashion now if possible just as it clogs up my wardrobe and I only usual get a few wears before it starts to fade and fall apart! YES it took time to get a good wardrobe, swapping that £40 H&M dress for a £130 one from Ghost, but now I have invested in it, I rarely need anything else. I swear by the brand Ghost London!
About the handbag thing, what if you are someone who wants to carry water in your bag or juice as you'll be walking for long. To be honest that bag is not practical for doing a whole day walk
For an evening dinner, I pack a small chain strap crossbody. It doesn't have to be a fancy brand. I save my money for other accessories.
On Amazon, they have very nice water bottle/purse combos, they have a space for your cards/cash and a strap to wear it crossed body style… and if someone else want you to carry their stuff (except for a child of course) then say NO
Men need to start carrying man-bags if they want to carry a bunch of stuff😁
The linen A line dress is now my ultimate favorite! I recently went on a trip to the beautiful island in the Philippines and I am so comfortable! And we all know how hot south east Asian summer could be!
I have a lot of lovely linen blouses. They all came from second hand stores and are name brands. I look great on a budget! I agree with your views on classic, respectful clothes while traveling.
Finally! I think you are the only one that ever tackle this .Do not wear clothes like you are going to a club when you go sight seeing and respect cathedrals, churches, holy and sacred places, chances are you won't be allowed to come in anyway or you will be ask to wear skirts just like in Thailand when you visit the temples and those that are provided are not the best when you do picture and selfies. You are the best!!
Linen, straw hats/bags and stylish flat sandals are always my go-to. Love this video 💃🏻
Anna, thank you, I so agree with no to leggings and athletic gear in public. I don't even own a pair of leggings, nor yoga pants. I love your modest approach to dressing feminine and classy. 😎
I hate leggings, I agree with you I don’t even own a pair. And I don’t wear long tops either. I’m a petite woman and that overwhelms me
Haha ladies we should make an anti-yoga pants club
However I do yoga, but I wear loose pants or cotton shorts instead
Anna, this video came at the perfect time! I'm traveling to Europe this summer and I want to make sure I look classy for every occasion. Thank you!
Thank you for yet more wonderful advice, Anna! I especially loved how your emphasize wearing appropriate clothes for places of worship.
I agree that linen and A-line dresses are a fabulous summer choice. I'm not so keen on sneakers with dresses--flats or canvas shoes with foot support tend to be a more flattering and upscale combination, especially for those of us who are not long-legged.
Thank you again for helping to make the world a more graceful place!
Anna is looking like a princess all the time. 👸🏼❤❤❤
What a refreshing outlook! Feminine , classy appropriate for occasions, quality fabrics, respectful of other cultures and the way they live, worship, etc...AND you always look beautiful! It's funny, but today I was looking at backpacks and fanny packs for future travel, and I immediately thought "Would Anna term these as classy?" the answer was NO, and I kept on walking ,LOL. Besides they were far from being attractive. Although young moms do carry them when they have little ones because it leaves both their arms free, understandable. I am always thinking, wallet, phone, comb, lipstick, compact, and wonder if it all fits in the small bags? I love the look of linen. The blue linen dress looked stunning on you. Thank You Anna. And please keep expounding on NO leggings and athletic and athleisure wear, and running, shoes, It looks boring, everyone and their aunt is wearing them, looks unoriginal, all look the same, and plain, NO one, dressed like that stands out for looking beautiful and classy in a sea of leggings. I am thankful for young women like yourself who care about themselves!
Hello Victoria how are you doing today How's everything going?
Respect for others and dressing and behaving in appropriate ways are so forgotten nowadays. Thank you for bringing this up!
Hello Gloria how are you doing today How's everything going?
I thank God for let me found Elegant Lady like you and modest, I have recovered my dignity and value as a Lady.
Never appreciate linen before but now I am starting to collect them🥰
This definitely needed to be said shorts and tanks are DEFINITELY not appropriate to go into temples or sight seeing yet backpacks are always childish to me unless it's a amusement park or picnic day.
Cut off denims shorts give me farmer vibes 😆
When I was younger and visited churches in Europe and forgot a wrap for my shoulders I took out two baby wipes and put them under my straps and worked and I got inside !!
Well said ,carry something is your bag when going to a temple or any religious site .
@@lolitalolipops4154 hahahh
It’s so refreshing hearing this. Way less pressure when planning for a trip. Thank you Anna Bey.
ballet flats when travelling- ARE SO GOOD- SOO COMFY
In summer, for me the perfect shoes to go around are espadrilles, with a medium wedge, around 4 or 6cm. Or also sandals with a modest wedge too, it's so confortable without giving up the feeling of nice footwear. That's my advice. And it goes with everything!
Thank you, Anna, for mentioning modest/respectful clothing when going to churches 🙌
Actually, people in Europe often go on Christian pilgrimages routes, so they wear very comfortable sportswear, because of long walks....:)
@@vaidamockeviciene8799 yeah 🙂 you can wear comfortable and modest clothes at the same time I think
Hey - Another advantage of wearing regular close is that you will look better in your photos too. You’ll have a better outfit for photos and a hat, some fun stuff like that.!
Anna, you are always so put together with minimal pieces. I am learning many great ideas for looking more feminine without showing a lot of skin! Thank you very much 🥰
It is so nice that you build so many personal photos or clips in your videos. I love it when you underscore your message so authentically and it shows your variety wonderfully and also inspires our creativity ❤️
Hello Lisa how are you doing today How's everything going?
You are the best. Please never stop to teach me how to be more elegant!!! THANK YOU ANNA!!! 😌
I love you, Anne. So much you are right about the right fabric do you know? Last few months I had started changing my dress's fabric and I've been feeling so happy and comfortable. Thank you so much, my favorite Elegant Lady.
"Anna Bey approved"...! You are delightfully witty, dear friend. Most of the time I watch and listen without commenting - sometimes I approve, sometimes less. I must say, however, that I've been following you (from time to time) for let's say 2 or 3 years, now, and despite your young age you give common sense, practical advice and I can see that you've been constantly trying to improve your appearance, your manners etc. Of course: you have a brain that works, a lot of stubbornness and you know very well what you want. Bravo Anna: keep it up. Love from Rome/Italy
As a Greek, if you'd like to come to Greece, I'd recommend you to explore around islands other than mykonos. Please, it's SO overpriced there. But, wherever you go in Greece, wear linen as it can go to 40°C on a normal Wednesday, be prepared to get hot lol.
It’s great hear @ Athemia, visited the islands , the museum. , where else before I go back on Wednesday?
Anna you may not know me or read my comment but I wanted to tell you that you are an amazing woman that turned me from rags to riches if you know what I mean , i elevated myself and i still am elevating , I'm quite young though , thanks you for making me realise the value of small efforts , if some day Im able to enroll in your course I'll consider that day to be the luckiest day of my life lv your videoes you personality and especially you , keep inspiring us!
I love this vlog. Such helpful and useful tips. It's perfect timing as I'm about to be a tourist at the end of this week for my week off 😀 Now I will look more chic
I really enjoy Anna Bey videos...she is never snooty or condescending, her advise is so helpful and fun!
Love love loooove this topic! Especially since we are in summer and many of us are visiting new cities :)
Loving the tighter curl on your hair 💚
I love your videos, Anna. I’ve been following you for years and taken a lot of your advice, I always get compliments as an elegant lady. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Anna thank you very much for speaking about “respect.” Now a days no style adviser addresses this issue and I am so happy you are advocating this .
Love this Anna - looking expensive can seem shallow to those that don't want to put in the effort, but it's SUCH a beautiful way of telling the world you are of high value and should be treated as such. These suggestions are perfect.
For elegant summer outfits, I like to look at Asian and Arabic countries. They have beautiful silk clothes. Silk is also cooling in summer.
I’m not going anywhere, but I loved this video for running around town on weekends doing errands. For me, part of “being comfortable” is dressing beautifully.
I agree with every point you're making here except the footwear. Many of us have bad feet and need supportive shoes. I will be bringing my linen, cotton, and modal clothing but also my Brooks running shoes on my next European vacation. If we are spending lots of money to go on vacation it's not worth it to have sore feet.
Beautiful dress Anna! I personally prefer wearing espadrilles over sneakers, I have impression shoelaces downgrade a look.
exactly unless you are playing tennis , wearing deck shoes sailing or doing track & field! LOL
Like Princess Leticia. 👸
Marie-Anne Lecoeur, a French chic style expert here on TH-cam, calls wrinkles in linen, "Smile lines for clothes." I love that.
xo~linda
I typically wear nice dresses during the summer. This way I am always appropriate to go anywhere. I can go someplace casual or nice. I never feel self conscious or out of place.
Hi. In europe we only use sport clothes doing sport. That and the straps and cap will give turist vibes. Your tips are really good
Anna my deaar ! I was waiting for this video for three weeks now. I came to turkey few days ago, couldn't do any major shopping untill i watch your video . Thank you veery much ! I actually got my leather sneakers and slightly oversized brown sunglasses for the summer ! I can say i am pretty much a good student of yours. Thank you again 💗 sending you loads of 💕😘
Another amazing video! Thank you Anna! 💞
That lemonaid yellow color looks amazing on you.
Anna, I have been watching your videos for a couple of years now and I truly value all the knowledge and advice you have shared with us. But I must say, in the past year your personality and fantastic sense of humor has indeed come through the videos and I enjoy them more and more each time. You always manage to make me laugh and keep me in check with my femininity. I admire how you are a confident woman who knows herself and is not afraid to express her opinion in a respectful manner. Something I believe we all should strive for. God bless you and your loved ones. Thank you for helping us become the best version of ourselves.
Kate Spade makes cute sneakers. Also I agree with wearing a crossbody instead of a waist bag but an expensive bag doesn’t work for me because I don’t want it to get dirty. I bought the Tumi Keene Water Bottle crossbody and it looks so much better. Great advice.
What bag is best if you want to carry a bottle of water? Many crossbody bags don't fit bottle of water
i agree with everything except choice of bag=s.. It will look good in pics. But when travelling its necessary to have a spacious bag. The bags that mention here cannot even hold a water bottle.. There are super cute medium size bag packs out there which hold travel essential. Chanel ,Fendi , prada backpacks are my favorite out of them all.. These bags are not so bulky as a school bags. perfect size
Even though it's summer, on rainy days, it tends to cool down a lot - sometimes by up to 20 degrees, such that another summer staple is the light weight shorter version of the trench coat. I love those summer mornings with a light rain!!
Sorry Anna, but the bag rule goes out the window when you're traveling with children.
That's when you learn to love the sophisticated backpack 😉
Anna, I am so happy that I found your channel! As a 16-year-old who loves dressing elegantly and just elegance in general, I really appreciate your tips.
Ever since I'm watching your videos, I pay even more attention to small details. Whenever I walk into a fast fashion store, I feel like I am a quality controller 😅 and most of the times I walk out of the store disappointed mainly because of the quality of the garments, but at least I'm not spending my money on something that's not worth it.
I feel very confident and refined in elegant clothes, however, I didn't really have the courage to wear them on regular school days because I felt like I would look so different from others.
I did it like twice though, (I was like: "I don't care, I don't need to fit in, I'm gonna put on an elegant outfit today because I'm in the mood for it and won't care about what others think") and guess what? I got quite a few compliments from my classmates (and even from some of my teachers) about my outfit and how much it suits me.
Also, once I was wearing an elegant outfit when I was shopping with my mom, and at some point she asked: Do you notice how many people take a look at you? I had no idea.
This does not mean though that I'm gonna give up on wearing regular everyday clothes, but I'm gonna dress elegantly if I feel like it. 🤍
This shows how outstanding elegant people are, so ladies, wear those clothes if you want because you'll shine in them!
(and I'm not saying this negatively, I don't want to be rude by any means, you can be outstanding in any outfit if you are being yourself, by outstanding I mean that nowadays not so many people dress this way, therefore it might stand out a little 🤍 + elegance is more about personality, being kind to others and handling every situation with class, but I really do like the way elegant people dress as well!)
greetings from Hungary 🤍
Young lady, continue being you.
@@kathydavies1760 thank you! 🤍
You didn’t come across negatively at all! ❤ Stay elegant! 😊
@@TheCJTok thank you! 🤗
It's so unreal how good you look. You hear this every day, and my comment will be just one of milion, but I had to say it. You are too perfect. 😍
Anna, I always love your advice on special occasion like this. I always wonder what to wear or what to do when travelling. And I really adore the way you have with words. Thank you.
I agree on everything except the backpack. Don't use your hiking backpack of course, get something like a clean and simple leather one that matches your outfit. But there is no way I am going to spend all day outside in the heat without carrying a big water bottle. If I can wear sneakers with a dress, I can wear a backpack ;-)
I would just buy small bottles of water at the small shops you find almost everywhere and put them in a bag
Backpacks are easier for pickpockets to access than cross body bags.
Perfect timing for me. I made a few of these mistakes in your lovely Switzerland and Italy but bought a hat and a linen dress is on order!
I will wear backpack when I take on Everest Base Camp Trek. I love your suggestions: bright colored small bags. Shorts are good for beach strolls. I think denim shorts are okay when you hike up Santorini or cruise on catamaran on Santorini caldera. When you take off your denim shorts, you still have your bikini swimsuit. So jump right off into the caldera.
I am a linen lover-so right about the crinkles, but the look and feel is fabulous.It definitely elevates your look. Loved your look in the Orans and Chanel💙
I loved my Nike shoes for roaming around whole day as a tourist. 😍
If you can’t be bothered to iron your linen clothing while traveling, add a few wrinkle resistant items (e.g. tencel, cupro, viscose, lyocell) to your suitcase. 👒
