Which item do you think is stereotypical & belongs on today's list? P.S There's still time left to join me in my FREE workshop "How I Went From Broke & Awkward To A Million-Dollar Life" by visiting www.levelupsecret.com
Hello Anna, thankyou for your videos! Can you talk about an big orchestra event, how to dress up, how to behave but most importantly how to meet a new person at this kind of event. Thanks
Hi Anna, could you re do the video about things that don't make you look classy (owning rickety car, phone etc ). You did it before but took it down, that video was really good. Re make it please with different wording if at all. Thanks in advance ☺
Dear Anna, I must say I have a point to make regarding the fur topic. Of course we should stop producing fur products. I am very much against buying new fur. However, in my opinion it's important to think further about how we treat animals in general. If a fur coat is passed down from let's say my grandmother to me, it would be more unethical and wasteful to not wear the coat. I think it we can show our respect to the animals who already died for the coat (sometimes not even) in a greater way and wear the garments. Instead of letting them rot on clothing racks, we should wear them proudly. Get them tailored to fit better even. In these ways we really respect the animals we so much love.
"Focus on developing your own style instead of relying on designer items to give you style" Very much said 👏🏻. Some celebrities aren't really fashionable, they just wear luxury brands to look "fashionable".
I so agree. My grandmother used to say “A little bit of what you fancy does you good but too much is greedy.” She was talking about food but I think it works with fashion too. Too many obvious logos splashed all over you and you may as well be walking around with a sign saying, “nouveau rich,” written on your forehead.
Thrifting is my absolute go to. I've found timeless pieces I've worn 10 years past for less than 5 dollars. plus, I feel awesome knowing that I can fix something, remake it into something new, while helping save mother earth in my own little way ^_^
Or buy something something secondhand for $5 and have it tailored to your body shape for $15. Then you've only spent $20 but you're wearing something impeccable!
I bought a second hand orange silk j Crew Blouse with mother of pearl buttons 10 years ago . I wear it everytime I go to interview for a job. Its my good luck charm . My second Lauren Ralph Lauren pieces last very well and aregreat on my thin frame. All my purses are second hand Dooney and Burke I get complements on them all the time. I also manages to get a Burberry scarf for 8$ ! When you know how to shop and where to shop and have a specific style cut color and fit in mind when buying second hand -you will always look put together
Growing up in a very comfortable family household, we couldn't give two licks about high end fashion. We are more interested in investing our money, compound interest is our two favorite words!!! Please don't go into debt to look rich, in the end it doesn't work and you have a mountain of bills to pay for. Save your money, invest what you can and live within your means! There's pride in being your best self, respect for your fellow person, kindness , politeness and a work ethic is what l was taught as a child.
I totally agree with this, I am all for re investing. I dont care about high end fashion for the sake of living the lifestyle but I do appreciate good style
We really need more TH-camrs to promote the concept of being a luxury minimalist. Some TH-camrs’ unboxing videos are perfect examples of human greed. They have nothing to do with style or taste.
Take a look at Bree Van de Kamp from "Desperate Housewives" for instance. I never really noticed her owning designer items and walking with everything designer from head to toe. Yet, she was THEE classiest out of the whole friend group. It was about the way she walked, talked and presented herself that made her look elegant. *You really don't need millions to look elegant. Less truly is more!*
I never understood why people are wearing things with logos. They are transforming themselves in walking adds, and even paid a lot of money for it. I definitely agree with you Lady!
Omg Anna I completely agree with you I am so glad I have never followed the designer trend, I always found it tacky and overrated! And as an influencer I am glad I never went astray haha xxx
Anna can you do a video on how to dress casually yet elegantly for occasions like going to the gym/yoga, walking the dog, running a quick errand, in the car all day long etc? I feel like that’s where I really struggle. You’ve given great lounge ware tips and can’t wait to see what you come up with!
I am 50 and retired so I understand the younger crowd wanting to dress to impress. As for me - Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Ann Taylor, Banana Republic, DKNY - maybe that's too old lady for some women here. I just want to emphasize Anna's point in finding your own style. Shop the designers who work for you. Quit being so trendy. Think in terms of looking your best which means - classic not "classy"
Only speaking for myself personally here, but I love the "if you know, you know" sort of items. Handbags from Aspinal of London, Bvlgari and the suchlike. I keep my clothes (and generally my shoes) as logo free as I can but that is genuinely just personal taste. I love that other people have the confidence to rock logo items but I am just too conservative in my tastes for that!
Thank you for mentioning the Aspinal brand. I took a look at their site and there are quite a few very nice handbags. I never heard of this brand (US) but I'm glad I found it. Thanks again.
@@ferrero_rocher_ well we gotta eat,I came from a long line of farmers and hunters, we would have starved if didn't have it cause we were poor. I guess we had a good reason to eat it.
@@lindahollander3588 there is a good reason. Fur is warm and better for the environment than other materials. They also last for many years if taken care of properly. I love fur.
I totally agree, I am not free ad material. Even when I was much younger, I didn’t want the logo to be the star. The cut, the fit, the material, the style, and feeling beautiful and confident is what matters. The logo has to be discreet or I will not buy the item 🤷♀️
I've never understood that logo business splashed on the front of s shirt! About 30 years ago, Guess was the big thing. Certain family members were/are slaves to the brand names. They would even advertise for Old Navy! That's not the highest end brand to brag about. The purse thing is crazy these days
I don't wear ANYTHING that is designer but I am complimented all of the time on my style. It's really about developing your own personal look!!! Pay attention to style, develop a passion and figure out what works for you and makes you look best. There are many looks that I appreciate on others (eg. baggy, shapeless items) that do nothing for me, so I avoid them. Also, avoid those looks everyone else is wearing (dainty layered necklaces!) if you want to avoid looking basic.
From my understanding, Anna is not saying don’t wear your logo brands, simply wear them as a single item, with class and style. Love from Greece soon to be UK. X
I got a Sac De Jour because of one of your videos. I get so many compliments on it, it's a classic without being too showy and you rarely see people wearing it.
I had to leave yet another comment my dear Anna! I look forward toy our content every Sunday and I find that every video has a take away message for someone who is learning to level up in life. Thank you so much for your advice and insight. Sincerely, Maitri
All together designer makes you a walking target for muggers too. My brother found this out in Paris, where I like the metro, but understated is safer.
This! If they can recognize something is valuable, there is always a person who will want to take it from you. People have been murdered here in Florida for their flashy designer items.
I enjoy your videos, even though I don’t aspire to be an “elegant lady”. Wearing all that stuff makes you a target for criminals as well as others who have bad intentions such as some false “friends”. I live in Los Angeles and you can check the news about all the people in fancy places like Beverly Hills who have been robbed at gunpoint of their expensive watches, etc. The the lesson of Anna, as I see it is, don’t be flashy or show off. Be quietly elegant.
When buying luxury, avoid trends. There are piece that become tacky. The general idea is stop following influencers and start curating your own personal style. When you are making a point of trying to show people your financial status or for some people poor spending habits it looks cringy. The clothes should never wear you. I recommend vintage rather than trends and pieces that are classic. I would rather someone ask me wear that piece is from, luxury houses make enough money from us already.
Dear Anna, would you please consider doing a do or don't regarding interior design? After all, our home should be a reflection of who we are, right? Lot of love from Belgium.
Anna, you are awesome. I'm a Saudi girl who wears an Abaya out, and your videos help me choose the right Abaya with the right cut, color, and fabric for every occasion. Now, I've said my goodbyes to the fansy glamour Abaya that I wore to work and college. Thank you very much.
The weird (and hopefully on its way out) world of influencers have completely ruined all of these items. That’s a fact. I don’t want my son growing up in a world where young people aspire to have this as their “career”. Walking human advertisements for brands for free loading, excess and greed. These things would normally only be worn by people who could actually afford it, plus it wouldn’t be plastered all over Instagram for young people to believe this is normal and how people should be living?! Great video Anna, classy as always x
Everything you say, I agree so so so much! Welth is welth and most times people who suddently become rich can't handle beeing humble and not showing all that welth! Only someone who works with his inner self can find the balance! Admire you Anna!!!
I recently watched your “this Morning” interview of 3 years ago. It’s pretty clear to me that the woman that interviewed you did not understand your message at all. I also think she might of been a little jealous. Take note of how she also ignored the gentleman that stated that she also improved her looks and that she didn’t look like that when they met. I think she ignored him because she was basically discouraging you for changing your appearance for men. Which we both know is not the case. Keep up the great work you are doing you are an inspiration to many. Keep changing lives ❤️
I used to love to show logos on what I am wearing, because it made me feel like I had more "value".... following you for the last few years really helped me reinvent my look and find ways to look expensive without looking like "im trying too hard". I ve gotten so many compliments on my outfits thanks to.your advice! Thank you for the great content!
Well done lovely Anna for reminding us to be classy by not wearing something which is the result of the cruelty and torture of animals. The knowledge and information about the horrific treatment of beautiful, sentient beings is freely available to us as intelligent compassionate humans, if we want to hear/see/learn. Don’t forget about the use of leathers though. As in handbags, belts etc. Can you offer us beautiful quality, elegant alternatives?Xx
Hello, dear Anna! Thank you for noting the "walking billboard". Finally somebody to understands me and how I see this showing off and put in the face "style", which according to me is more like lack of style. Well said. All of these examples were examples for stereotype and mediocrity. Pity that most of the people do not realize it. I think that more people need to watch your videos. Thank you for this video and giving voice to this point of view.
Very true. Sometimes I find myself admiring a beautiful item that has no logo on it, but discover it is a very particular and sophisticated brand that costs more than the popular ones! Class is much more than a logo.....
Dear Anna, thank you for pointing out the cruelty behind Fur-Fashion. It means a lot to me that you, whom I look up to, strongly advices on ethical right decisions. Thank you. God bless your heart. Greetings from germany.
Vintage fur is cool. If you worried about animals ... stop wearing leather, stop eating certain foods, and stop wearing makeup ... seriously I hate hearing this comment yet folks rocking other stuff or eating stuff made from animals. I don't care what people wear ... it's their choice.
i do find it a little bit funny that leather is okay but not fur….it is essentially the same thing. maybe it is different if it is a cow or lamb because we also consume all of the animal.
I'm very grateful for this as I am graduating with my bachelor degree and stepping into the working world. I would love to have your confidence! Thank you for everything.
Love #2 - wearing that clothing logo out front. I would like to say that, when this "fad" first came into being, it was big simultaneously to when a fabulous comic strip captured my heart, "Calvin and Hobbes" - in one strip, Calvin sits with Hobbes, watching the sunset and pondering, "Why on earth would I PAY a manufacturer to wear an item of clothing that was only free advertising for them?" I agreed then, and I agree now. My body is not an advertising billboard and I avoid them. (I'm also a little uncomfortable wearing a 'destination' tee shirt as well, but I'm also over 40, and one that prefers solid colors, so there's that.) Thank you.
Great advice! I like to just pick one statement piece or logo item per outfit & keep the rest neutral. In my opinion it’s a little too clash-y to have your Gucci belt competing with your CC logo sandals & your LV tote!
I am usually not even that into style and fashion but after watching intelligent content like this I think I’m going to start to get into it more. You gained a subscriber :)
Another great video which I completely agree with. Anna, I would love to see an updated skin care and makeup routine. Also what are your favorite perfumes.
Anna: Please start a hashtag or meme "NO MORE LOGO'S". You have a very large audience and it will catch on, maybe designers will finally realize we are not their billboards. I look at logo's the same way I do price tags. People don't walk around with price tags hanging off of their clothes and that's what I think of when I see logo's: "Look at me, I paid $500 for this tee shirt " . So tacky!
I think a cute logo piece can be very nice and very classy.. if worn correctly. I don’t like mixing multiple logos or showing more than one at a time but certain pieces look just beautiful with the logos!
I definitely agreed, too many logos scream that you are trying to fit in as a rich person and the more discreet the better for me. Animal products are not ethical and we all should choose kinder options. Thanks for the video Ana
Perfectly said. I can say from personal experience that many T-shirts with logos on the front are usually the "cheap" items that you can get from a designer, other times it's just a brand signature to have a loud logo in any item they make. Good taste will always make a good image rather than a collection of brand names. Just because something is expensive and from a big brand doesn't mean it's beautiful or even tasteful
That red shirt of yours is magnificent 😻 in my country, stereotypically wealthy people wear those tights/tracksuits with the brand names written in white up the leg. They are just everywhere. High end sports attire is also very commonly associated with the wealthy in my area. One particular favourite is the excersise attire from burnt studios
Walking through NYC, all the fake purses are very logo forward, including the YSL Kate bag with tassel. Loud logos are for poor people who want to look rich and are probably wearing fakes.
Hey, I love your videos. I’m a teenager and I would love for you to do a video for makeup on what elegant women would wear and what to avoid so I don’t attract cheap men. I’m looking to become more polished day to day and when I go out but not sure what ground rules I should have. Again love your videos keep it up❤️
I’ve bought so many items I’ve seen you wear, but I agree.. there are 2 types of people: those who wear Burberry print on the inside and those who wear Burberry on the outside 😂
I thrift unashamedly and people often ask where I get my clothes and when I tell them they look very surprised. Most of the clothes we get in South Africa come from abroad which I must say are of great quality.
Thank you for mentioning that fur is not okay. Even without fur being unethical, it’s never been chic, and makes one look like they’re trying too hard. Totally agree as well with the overuse of logos.
I don’t actually like any of these, I prefer buying good quality items which are not from a popular brand. Like I would rather have a nice minimalistic leather bag from a small company, than an of the big brand bags with logos. Thank you for the informative video.
Anna, I agree so much with every point - so well noticed & stated by you. Thank you! I have recently sold my LV bag, scarf and bag with visible logo and feel so good about it. You are very right on FOCUSING ON YOUR PERSONAL STYLE instead of brands.🙌🏻
I do have a couple of designer bags- Chanel WoC and LV Alma BB (in DE, not mono) which were gifts and I love them. But, I only wear them with very low-key, almost dressed-down outfits. I don't own any designer clothing (nor do I want any) and prefer good quality, unbranded classics or vintage. I don't want anyone knowing where I bought something 😄
I was also thinking about buying the alma bb in damier eben. I have many clothes in brown and camel, and they would look great with that bag. Now I'm hesitating a lot because of what she said...

Agree. You can look elegant and stylish without brand names and be a classy lady with classy manners.
Yup. My dad always says “you can’t buy class” (meaning manners and how you act and treat people, not like social “class”)
I concur 💕

Nothing beats class!

Don’t forget about the use of leathers though. As in handbags, belts etc. Can you offer us beautiful quality, elegant alternatives?Xx
Hi Anna. Pat from RI. Great video, I always learn something from you !!
I love the Anna smiles more in her videos. Been a casual watcher for years but now I'm subbed because I learn a great deal.
I started watching you just to have a good laugh but I’m starting to actually enjoy your videos, it’s crazy!
Thanks Anna! I absolutely love the sac de jour bag as well! I gifted one myself on my birthday. Such a classy bag!
I definitely agree with you... To focus on developing your own personal style
Hello, dear Anna! Thank you for noting the "walking billboard". Finally somebody to understands me and how I see this showing off and put in the face "style", which according to me is more like lack of style. Well said. All of these examples were examples for stereotype and mediocrity. Pity that most of the people do not realize it. I think that more people need to watch your videos. Thank you for this video and giving voice to this point of view.
Confident people can wear a logo. I’m sorry you can’t. Lol
@@katemiller7874 confident or not confident, it would be still an walking billboard, which I refuse to be :)
The balmain style blazers are really classy and timeless if you know how to wear it :)
Yes but the padded shoulders have had their day.
Very true. Sometimes I find myself admiring a beautiful item that has no logo on it, but discover it is a very particular and sophisticated brand that costs more than the popular ones! Class is much more than a logo.....
Dear Anna, thank you for pointing out the cruelty behind Fur-Fashion. It means a lot to me that you, whom I look up to, strongly advices on ethical right decisions.
Thank you. God bless your heart.
Greetings from germany.
Thrift store furs are ok in bitter cold
Vintage fur is cool. If you worried about animals ... stop wearing leather, stop eating certain foods, and stop wearing makeup ... seriously I hate hearing this comment yet folks rocking other stuff or eating stuff made from animals. I don't care what people wear ... it's their choice.
i do find it a little bit funny that leather is okay but not fur….it is essentially the same thing. maybe it is different if it is a cow or lamb because we also consume all of the animal.
I agree with you, it is very try hard. How many of your viewers are able to afford all of these items to put together?????
I'm very grateful for this as I am graduating with my bachelor degree and stepping into the working world. I would love to have your confidence! Thank you for everything.
Anna, I am so over Louis Vuitton. I don’t know why. I cringe but still haven’t sold my Berkeley.
Love #2 - wearing that clothing logo out front. I would like to say that, when this "fad" first came into being, it was big simultaneously to when a fabulous comic strip captured my heart, "Calvin and Hobbes" - in one strip, Calvin sits with Hobbes, watching the sunset and pondering, "Why on earth would I PAY a manufacturer to wear an item of clothing that was only free advertising for them?" I agreed then, and I agree now. My body is not an advertising billboard and I avoid them. (I'm also a little uncomfortable wearing a 'destination' tee shirt as well, but I'm also over 40, and one that prefers solid colors, so there's that.) Thank you.
Great advice! I like to just pick one statement piece or logo item per outfit & keep the rest neutral. In my opinion it’s a little too clash-y to have your Gucci belt competing with your CC logo sandals & your LV tote!
I am usually not even that into style and fashion but after watching intelligent content like this I think I’m going to start to get into it more. You gained a subscriber :)
Bravo! I'm late to your site, but I'm here for it!
Nah… the Balmain blazer is cut to perfection. It can’t be topped. The rest I mostly agree with.
All my clothes are plain and minimal. I want my handbag to make a statement. I have the LV monogram neverfull mm and Speedy B 30 in the DE print.
Another great video which I completely agree with. Anna, I would love to see an updated skin care and makeup routine. Also what are your favorite perfumes.
Thank your for the video! Could you please make a video of your everyday makeup look it's beautiful
Anna: Please start a hashtag or meme "NO MORE LOGO'S". You have a very large audience and it will catch on, maybe designers will finally realize we are not their billboards. I look at logo's the same way I do price tags. People don't walk around with price tags hanging off of their clothes and that's what I think of when I see logo's: "Look at me, I paid $500 for this tee shirt " . So tacky!
Maybe without the grammar mistake 😂
I think a cute logo piece can be very nice and very classy.. if worn correctly. I don’t like mixing multiple logos or showing more than one at a time but certain pieces look just beautiful with the logos!
"Logos"
I'm surprised at how gentle you were in this video, there was a lot of tack I'd avoid all together
Watching Anna Bey on a Sunday while enjoying my macron and coffee makes me feel like a dear elegant lady 💅🏻 #selfcare
A dear, elegant and fabulous lady!! Enjoy😘💋❤
same
@@oliviaknight1123 🥰💕
Thanks for making this video! People need to watch this.
I definitely agreed, too many logos scream that you are trying to fit in as a rich person and the more discreet the better for me.
Animal products are not ethical and we all should choose kinder options.
Thanks for the video Ana
Perfectly said. I can say from personal experience that many T-shirts with logos on the front are usually the "cheap" items that you can get from a designer, other times it's just a brand signature to have a loud logo in any item they make. Good taste will always make a good image rather than a collection of brand names. Just because something is expensive and from a big brand doesn't mean it's beautiful or even tasteful
Haven’t even seen the video but anything LV falls into this category 😂
LV monogram, yes. But they have so many nice pieces without big logo too😊
Anna always wears her beautiful LV cream scarf
I will never understand why people are queueing in front of LV to buy overpriced tacky bags with a logo that you can see on every fake market...
@@lenadavid3456 well i love it 🇬🇧❤️
Anna Bey wears everything she later says is vulgar. Cheap marketing tactic. Only thing I agree with if LV = vulgar
I totally agree with your megaphone comment. And I think this is true with all recognizable things.
I’d also love to add the Salvatore Ferragamo gancini belt to the elegant belt list! The smaller gold horse bit buckle is timeless and understated.
Great video
I think the combination of the LOVE bracelet and the Van Cleef is very overused, everyone and their mother has it, same as the Hermes Oran sandals.
I do love the Oran sandal but people overdue it, so it has lost it's appeal. What do you suggest instead?
Thank you Anna
That red shirt of yours is magnificent 😻 in my country, stereotypically wealthy people wear those tights/tracksuits with the brand names written in white up the leg. They are just everywhere. High end sports attire is also very commonly associated with the wealthy in my area. One particular favourite is the excersise attire from burnt studios
Great video. Blessings
Walking through NYC, all the fake purses are very logo forward, including the YSL Kate bag with tassel.
Loud logos are for poor people who want to look rich and are probably wearing fakes.
I really like the abrupt way you end your videos! And also the humour in them. Best regards from Greece!
I just learned that I'm too poor to become a stereotype 😅
I have a simple Casio watch. I don't want to look rich. I just want to look better than most people. I don't buy the hot items. I shop for quality.
Hey, I love your videos. I’m a teenager and I would love for you to do a video for makeup on what elegant women would wear and what to avoid so I don’t attract cheap men. I’m looking to become more polished day to day and when I go out but not sure what ground rules I should have. Again love your videos keep it up❤️
Anna my dear you are such a wonderful sister! THanks for advising me all the time :)
I’ve bought so many items I’ve seen you wear, but I agree.. there are 2 types of people: those who wear Burberry print on the inside and those who wear Burberry on the outside 😂
I love your videos. All of them. I am like many of your viewers: I get the joke and the tips from you. A big elegant hug from me!
I thrift unashamedly and people often ask where I get my clothes and when I tell them they look very surprised. Most of the clothes we get in South Africa come from abroad which I must say are of great quality.
I love Anna how you are even bringing the aspect of ethical fashion to your videos. Keep them coming :)
Kate Blanchett in, "Blue Jasmine" portrays the rich stereotype.
Love it..especially Gucci belts and the LV one..thank u lady Anna ..please more content about this topic to avoid these common mistakes
Thank you for mentioning that fur is not okay. Even without fur being unethical, it’s never been chic, and makes one look like they’re trying too hard. Totally agree as well with the overuse of logos.
I love fur.
Fur looks gorgeous, but I don’t buy it.
Wear what you love. I have many Vintage Minks and Fur Collars and they are very Elegant. I would never buy new Fur but love all my Vintage items❤
All my furs are vintage. Love them.
I hate garments with massive labels on the front. It's so ugly in my opinion lol
You always hit the right spot in your videos,I so much admire you🥰
Fortunately, my “budget” budget doesn't allow for such items so I am safe. 😄
As soon as you said survey i stopped the video and answered everything, by the way you look gorgeous
I don’t actually like any of these, I prefer buying good quality items which are not from a popular brand. Like I would rather have a nice minimalistic leather bag from a small company, than an of the big brand bags with logos. Thank you for the informative video.
I go for functionality first
I will wear the furs I inherited from my grandmother, thank you very much.
Anna, I agree so much with every point - so well noticed & stated by you. Thank you! I have recently sold my LV bag, scarf and bag with visible logo and feel so good about it. You are very right on FOCUSING ON YOUR PERSONAL STYLE instead of brands.🙌🏻
Do you live in Japan?
@@Rwissam1987 no, actually in Eastern Europe.🙌🏻
Excellent fashion videos, Mrs. Anna Bey. Excellent tips. Happy holidays from our channel: Australian Parakeets Stars
I do have a couple of designer bags- Chanel WoC and LV Alma BB (in DE, not mono) which were gifts and I love them. But, I only wear them with very low-key, almost dressed-down outfits. I don't own any designer clothing (nor do I want any) and prefer good quality, unbranded classics or vintage. I don't want anyone knowing where I bought something 😄
I was also thinking about buying the alma bb in damier eben. I have many clothes in brown and camel, and they would look great with that bag. Now I'm hesitating a lot because of what she said...
Wear them whenever you want! This lady is expressing her opinion.. it’s not the law lol. Life is short wear what you like.
I love this I love fashion want to know thanks I do not want too go overboard Great advice Anna .
