"She may be a mob wife, but she still drinks from a Stanley cup" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I died at this 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s such a perfect insult
👏👏👏👏👏👏
BEST! 😂🖤
Best quote!!!
Mafia/mob bosses are also romanticized in Gen Z literature. The mafia dissolves people in acid. It's NOT cute.
More so than in any other mafia literature stretching back to The Godfather?
Mamma mia!
Whether or not The Godfather has romanticised the mafia is debatable. Yes, the power of gangsters has always facinated people but when you actually watch the movie (or read the book) the lifestyle is actually showing how the characters not only lose themselves the deeper they get into business, but they also lose everyone they love (or have to push them away, either for protection or for liability reasons). Of course, reality is way worse than fiction when it comes to the mafia.
What is GenZ literature?.. do you have your own books that no one else can read or something?... 😂
@GMW.artist id assume "gen z literature" is just current New Adult fiction (aimed at like 18-25 year olds).. and yes, the mafia dark romance trope seems to be pretty popular.
They could have just called it "Jersey girl aesthetic" or "Bold girl aesthetic" there was no need to romanticis someone else's pain.
People from Jersey would definitely be offended if they called this the jersey girl esthetic (and they would probably have more validity to it than the supposed real "mobs wives" on tiktok.
@@undetestable1 I'm not saying the people copping to it aren't faking, but mob wives do exist, and their lives were perhaps glamorous looking, but it was a terrifying way to live
Oh yeah, born and raised in Jersey and there is no way you'll see any of us okay with it being called "Jersey girl aesthetic" 💀 absolutely not
Ummm the shows jerseylicious, jersey shore!!! Obviously you don't know what jersey girls looked like right over the bridge from us new Yorkers
@@undetestable1 we're all pissed they didn't call the Jersey Girl look, because that if what it is.
It means raising your kids alone , taking care of the house alone , sitting at home alone because your hubby is in prison , or in another woman's bed , ir on vacay with his other family !!!!!!
It's also not putting make up on at all, nor wearing flashy clothes, or you get beaten up for "trying to get other males attention"
Don't marry into crime and be suprised that your life is tough and then cry oppression over it
That just sounds like being a woman
True 👍🏽 ✔️ 👍🏽
My Ex is Sicillian American, his dad was a "business man" in NJ and we side eye and cackle at this trend. Ive met the families and seen the women they are emulating. Most women are flashy and always in glam because they had no choice, they were expected to look beautiful and successful as they are a direct reflection of her husband and HIS success. Alot of this trend is rooted in misogyny and violence and its not great to minimize it into a micro trend. Just my 2 pennies.
You could say that about a lot of Black fashion seen in hip hop and rap. I wouldn't assume just because someone dresses that way doesn't mean that they partake in a certain problematic lifestyle or want to actually join a gang. I like wearing 50s fashion, but that doesn't mean I want to be a woman in the 50s that was littered with misogyny and racism. We have a saying in the vintage community, "Vintage style, not vintage values" for this exact reason.
@@loreniacupcake🙏🏽 it’s kinda like how I don’t excuse older people from being rude and mean just because they’ve reached a great age, nah, to me that just means they should dang well know better than to treat people like that
@@loreniacupcakepeople take things too seriously these days. It's about having fun recreating these eras!
@@loreniacupcake you're completely missing the point. They arent dressing vintage, these women dressed according to the Era in which they lived; where in most mob homes they were required to dress and act a certain way. This has nothing to do with any of what you just said.
@@buffyfan666 Yup, and so are black people who dress a certain way. They too are living in the same era. Stop profiling people.
People changing personalities based on trends is 😵💫 disturbing
That’s because they base their entire personality on shallow aesthetics and don’t really have an actual sense of identity
character trait acquisition, it's a narcissism thing
@@seabreeze4559but it’s also just an unhealed human thing as well. over half the population currently cant have NPD or true narcissistic traits
idk maybe i’m just not getting it but I feel like that’s just not a true representation of narcissistic behaviors (coming from having a mom with NPD and an ex with it)
I agree 😂 and these are people’s parents 😂
to call this "a narcissism thing" is such a lazy (and ableist) cop out... young people learn to define themselves through their surroundings. Back in the day we had subcultures, for example. Today's society is not only more fast paced, there's also a lot of things going on at the same time and constant exposure to all sorts of media that's easily accessible and replaces regular conversation. It's a systemic problem and instead of shaming them maybe we should be helping kids ground themselves and model adequate behaviour for them so they don't get so lost while navigating this.
Fran Fine didn‘t want to be a mob wife, so I don‘t wanna be one either.
Exactly! This needs to be remembered 🥰

@@whispersoftheafterlife1017 beautiful Italian
100 percent Italian here
"She's a Mob Wife but She still Drinks From a Stanley Cup" Robert's Shade is so sneaky yet BAM 💥 its in your face lmao 😭
I remember this story (I'm Italian) that made it to the news. This mod guy was a mafia kid, he fell in love with a normal girl, he harassed her DAILY and eventually proposed to her but she didn't want to be in a relationship with this guy (obvously) since she was also in love with another man.
Because in italy at the time we had the law of the "matrimonio riparatore" (=the repair marriage) he r@ped this woman and proposed to her. Because of this law, after SA, a woman was forced to marry the guy who r@ped her in order to save face in front of the society of the time and her own family.
She absolutely refused and took things to court (what. a. absolute. QUEEN.) and eventually this court case made the law of the "matrimonio riparatore" illegal.
I don't remember the name of the girl but she's an absolute italian legend and made history.
I wanted to tell this story because maybe another girl went through all of this and became a mob wife against her will. It's absolutely NOT all glitz and glam. This is a serious topic and deserves to be treated seriously.
I heard that story like a week ago. That girl is AMAZING and so strong for not giving in to the creep.
Franca Viola!!!
Casefile did a phenomenal podcast episode on this!
So this is the culture that they are pretending that these people are offended by, because they dress similar to those women? I’m sorry but if these fakes make it look bad then isn’t that a good thing? I really don’t get why some were offended by this, personally. It’s such a shame that women who have no idea what any of this shit is who just happen to like to dress like this will be lumped together with people pretending to be something they aren’t on tiktok because people also can’t see the difference between just dressing a certain way and also acting a persona.
Love her! What a horrible law.😮
I’ve been a fan of the glamour aesthetic, even during that time when everyone wanted to be a “clean girl”. But TikTokers calling it “mob wife aesthetic” is super weird to me. Like you can embrace the big hair, bold makeup, big jewelry, and fur coats without romanticizing the mafia.
Exactly! I just made a post that this is a throwback to the 80's dressy girl look that I've been wearing for decades. Nothing to do with the mafia.
I agree so much. I have this whole look in my closet and have had the vibe since I was in middle/highschool but with some variations with influence(I'm Mexican American) from Mexican & Spanish glamour & show girls. Dark feminine/Pinup was always my look and I feel like now I'm just looking silly because the clean girls have all turned on this character because they lack their own identity. Anything to "run" to get to the trend the fastest. I honestly can't believe the places that this trend is coming up, like daytime shows and local news segments. I get second hand embarrassment.
@@DB-xo6xhI don’t think it’s fair to assume “clean girls” lack their own identities :/
It is just as strange as the cappuccino/coffee/strawberry/fruit look😂
Agreed. Call it Socialite Aesthetic? Idk, I'm not in fashion circles but surely there's a better term for it. Romanticizing the mafia, ew.
I love not having tiktok. I've never had tiktok. I get all the tiktok news I need from Robert. He encourages me to stay well clear
Me too ❤
"hailey bieber kit kat eyebrows" LMFAOOOOOOOO
reminds me of people romanticising serial killers. it shows a lack of understanding of how serious organised crime is. equating it to italian-american cultural touchpoints is just bizarre.
Mob Wife Aesthetic is more a Jersey New York thing than Italian. I'm a Jersey white girl and there's lots of mob wife aesthetic from all kinds of Jersey girls.
Oh yeah, I'm also from NJ, this is very Jersey, Long Island Italian American. Like if you've seen The Real Housewives of NJ, this is them. Especially the early seasons.
Very much this.
Exactly , it’s how you used to tell who wasn’t from Manhattan
🙋🏻♀️ Jersey Italian and you nailed it!
Definitely.. I live in Italy and it's not an Italian thing
I used to watch Mob Wives, and the stress and pain those women go through is insane!
I don't see anything aspirational about being a mob wife I think they should just rename it looking like a Italian American from the tri state area lol
Nothing compared to the stress and pain the victims of organized crime and their families go through!
There is a distinct difference between Italian culture and Italian American culture. As someone who is Italian American and grew up in Queens and Long Island, “mob” and “mob wives” aesthetic is just the norm. We’ve all been donning big hair, heavy makeup, spray tans, leather, black, and leopard for our whole lives. It’s gaudy, it’s fun, it’s kind of tacky but in the best glamorous way possible. I now live in Florida, and I always stick out like a sore thumb because I took my “mob wife” aesthetic that I’ve been doing my whole life with me. But I wouldn’t change a thing about it.
My momma is Italian American and I would specify that your “aesthetic” is particular to a region, not a culture.
"Your husband does crime stuff and you look rich"
HILARIOUS! 💀 XX
I hate TikTok… it’s completely ruined originality and turned life into permanent high school. It’s like everyone holds their breath to see what the next big trend is going to be by the famous influencer so we can all run out and over spend to fit in. It’s like everyone obsessing with the mean popular girl.
This is hardly a new thing. Happened before the internet with magazines and movie stars, and even before then it was royalty who set the trends, not only for clothing and fashion but for food, lifestyle and even religion. Humans always want to conform to what the culture deems beautiful or desirable, it's just that tik tok and the internet can make those trends happen in a few hours rather than once a decade.
@@elizabethannemillar3013 Great points. It may be nothing new, but the breakneck speed of changing trends combined with extreme consumerism is what makes TikTok stand out as the worst iteration of trendsetting to date.
Same, F**k ticktok
It's why I'm not on TikTok, in my opinion it is so pathetic and people need to get off it.
@@elizabethannemillar3013dude it may not be new but it’s worse than it’s ever been. no excuses.
When my family lived in Sicily while I was growing up my Dad had to deal with the mob bosses outside of the air station. It was scary and it’s nothing to be glamorized.
I grew up outside of Dallas, Texas . That big hair, over the top, pageant Queen aesthetic was just a regular Tuesday at the Piggly Wiggly here.
People need to find their own style. Everyone looks the same! Its giving Regina George from mean girls. "She wore army pants and flip flops so i wore army pants and flip flops". EW.
THIS 💯💯
I mean it been like this forever haha in the 2000s everyone or most people dressed the same so it’s not differens hah 😅
I’m 42 & honestly glad I’m finally too old to care much about trends lol Unfortunately this kinda thing has been around forever, probably since ancient times, and it’s just that human urge to fit in, I’m guessing🤷🏼♀️ I did it back in the 90s-to-early 2010s, but now I’m finally outta f**ks to give.
@lolala865 i guess, maybe its because im a millennial haha 🙈 and i grew up when everyone dressed different. I feel like i don't see goths, punk kids or anything nowadays 😕
@@brittanyking9902 might be where you live, I see alt kids all the time here. Especially at Saver's
So the aesthetic of Mob Wives is basically New Jersey fashion mostly popularized by Italian American descendants in the 2000s. Basically animal print, leather, fur coat, sunglasses, and big hair.
Someone should tell these girls it's giving Snooki.
or idk black women or Hollywood actresses when it’s cold
Also New York I grew up partially in the North Bronx which was 70% Italian and Hispanic and I saw a lot of women dressing like that
@@Model_Roe i have heard there is a huge amount of traffic between NY, NJ, and Staten Island. Specifically family of Italian Americans since they have large communities and businesses together
Basically Snooki
That coat look AMAZING and perfect for this video, also the Makeup!! The Brow!! Love it!! 🙌
I have slowly noticed fur coats, french tips, animal prints coming back for women over 45, I know people just label everything on TikTok but the women I know that are doing this ‘trend’ have no idea they are doing this ‘trend’ but I just think people are having fun with makeup that they know (2016 makeup is coming back too) and clothes that they hadn’t worn for a long time because of covid, I think the ‘clean girl’ look worked because we actually wanted to ‘be clean’ because of covid but with covid mindset gone people want to express themselves!
love your point of view. 🤍🩵
I always just assumed that the mob wife aesthetic built on the Russian mob wives not the Italian, as the fur coats are widely popular as a status symbol especially in russia where you you actually need them to stay warm and look good. Same with the red lipstick specifically the good old soviet red shade.
The carb thing also applies
Like my Baba worked really hard making all of these dumplings
Red lipstick is also part of the parisian chic/ french woman style.
Oh that’s a good point
I’d call it also the European red because it’s true that it’s popular in those places.
@@sapphire8644 oh how interesting!
Words: blood money
Also: Most mob wives cannot choose not to be a mob wife.
I’m 61 years old. I guess I have been doing “Mob Wife” since my mid 20’s. Yep, vintage leather jacket, mid length skirt or slacks, high heels, big sunglasses, Texas big hair, full face makeup, big chunky gold jewelry. Who knew I had been in style all this time. Lol
LOL...I just made the same comment...I'm an 80's girl & been wearing this look for decades!!! Wear a look long enough, & it all comes around again. In fact this is atleast the 2nd time this has been a fad since the 80's.
@@RMBlake007same! 80s gal here!
I bet next they'll call Dolly a Mob wife 😂😂
@@_Julie_Bee :)
50 here and same!
Painting your scar is everything to me. Taking something I already think is beautiful (scars) and putting it out there like bam bitch! I LOVE IT!
My Aunt’s husbands family were hit men for the mob. It was the family business. My Uncle didn’t want to follow the family business yet had to work for the mob. He ran a limousine service and the mob would use the limos whenever they wanted. His only rule was they had to return them in the same shape they were in when they borrowed them. The limos would be returned with all brand new interiors and new paint jobs because they had executed someone in the car 😂 Truth is stranger than fiction y’all and this was the truth. Mob life in New York and New Jersey was the real deal
"They killed someone 😂" wtf man
@@gaia7240 yep. Truth is stranger than fiction or at least matches up to fiction sometimes (Godfather) 😂
I'm dying over the eye look, the highlighted scar, and the jacket!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤
“mafia aesthetics” are so disgusting to me. i’ve had relatives get mixed up in that kind of stuff and tragically they’ve lost their lives due to it, and then to go to a store and seeing books about “mafia boyfriends”?? it’s repulsive honestly. the mafia isn’t something to romanticize, it’s not glamorous, it’s not fun, it just causes pain for every poor person involved
It’s like folks who have narco/buchana aesthetic 🤦🏻♀️
I have had a friend who read books like this, and I have always hated that trope. It makes me really uncomfortable, the way mafia culture is being romanticised.
It's not that deep . Those are some delulu with no style who try everything new each month😅
Yeh that trope in books gives me the ick. I know its fiction but when its rooted in something real and harmful and made 'sexy'...nahh
@@arianegagnon7650we fully get it isn’t that deep, honey, that is part of the point.
i was just talking to my friend about mob wife and how I dont agree with it because alot of women of criminals end up getting killed by their own husbands, getting beaten up, abused emotionally and physically.. its glamorizing something so truamatic
“They only eat foods in season” girl that’s how fruit/vegetables work
You can get any fruit any time it's 2024. She meant they eat seasonal and care for their environment.
Not Robert still peeved by those Stanley Cups 😂😂😂
Something similar happens with cartel wives and the way they show off on social media. They glamorize a lifestyle given to them by their husbands crimes.
TikTok is real shallow on another level. I’ve never had it and never will.
So many people suffered from the mob in Italy, were killed. This trend is offending.
She may be a mob wife but she still drinks from a Stanley cup 💀
This made me giggle
I think people are much confusing Italian culture, Italian-American culture, the 1950s, the 1980s, and television presenting all these things
Edit: and the 1800s as well
It’s so horribly 1980😭
Its like that time when in 2021-22 alt fashion was all around and suddenly everyone switched in 2023 to the "clean girl" aesthetic
Lots of ppl didn't switch but were then made fun of :(
@bisexualantigone This is the most chiIdish thing I've ever read. The internet being free for all ages is the worst thing ever.
Totally unrelated to the trend, but I love how your eyeshadow is giving "subtle lesbian flag" and now I wanna try something similar with other flags at home! ty for sharing your art with us!
I think people should get off tiktok, get their own style and minds and stop giving a hoot about what next big company or media or rich person deems trending, viral or important.
LoL 🤣 these are obviously bored rich white girls from the suburbs with no identity of their own so they have to culturally appropriate other cultures to look in their minds what they think is cool they did the same with Black and Afro Latino culture remember the Kardashians were queens of doing that this is no different
Exactly.
I agree, unfortunately people have become addicted to that app
🖤💜🖤 Serving us “sexy villain realness” today (also ‘KitKat eyebrows’ took me out ‘cos some people do be looking like they drew them on with a bar of chocolate)
😂
I was craving a KitKat after that comment! 😂
In Serbia, we have the mob wife, Ceca…she is the wife of the killed gangster called Arkan, she lives in a huge mansion…she is a popular singer, and her style is still insanely popular among the girls 🤣
I always love it when Robert uses liner on his scar. It looks so cool. I am mad that my scar isn't prominent enough to pull this off 😭
i relate to the girl who spoke about her sicilian experience. my polish grandma made sure all her kids and grandkids, male and female, knew how to cook and bake. basic care of yourself wasnt gendered. my grandpa died when i was young so i dont remember much about him. i remember playing with him. i remember waiting as he got ready so we could go for walks and pick up my sister from school. girls worked on farms and in factories. my grandpa did fiber crafts. you did what was needed to feed, cloth, shelter your family. it wasnt gendered.
My new trend is watching every video Robert does. 😂❤
😅 👍 right !
Felt lol
Now this is a trend I can get behind ❤😂
All of them except the ones on TikTok, because I don’t have the app anywhere. What I know about it is what I watch here and Facebook.
@@nmv33 noted … I have tick-tock but don’t really use / watch it x
This is honestly why I won't get a tiktok. It's so saturated with children being "influencers" even though they know next to nothing about what they're talking about. It's so obnoxious.
"Hailey Bieber Kit kat eyebrows" I'M WEAK 🤣🤣🤣🤣
it's funny they specify faux fur bc most mob spouses i know/have seen if they wear a fur coat you better believe it's not faux 😀 and not caring about animal lives is nothing compared to what mobs do to humans. it's not faux fur ethically sourced garments and tiktokking stanley cups 😂 i'm glad i got off TT, And thank you Robert for keeping us non-tiktokkers in the loop. Good video and good commentary👏
I just wanted to comment the same about the fur thing. You‘re so correct 😂
I've heard some people encourage wearing vintage real fur, since the animal's been dead for 10+ years and faux fur is just synthetic.
That's good. That app is like poison for the human mind
And the jewelry. You know real mob wives did not buy that jewelry on sale or discounted. Those mob wives either received it as a very expensive gift from someone in the mob or someone trying to make business with the mob or they paid cold hard (probably blood stained) cash. With no remorse.
A lot of people say the men in the mobs are cold/hard but from what I have seen & from seeing the cartels in Mexico it is usually the woman who runs the show….they’re the scary powerful ones.
@@chibiktsn3 I'm honestly down for that, especially buying it second hand from a local consignment or vintage clothing store, it's not supporting the business that actually made the fur garment so you're not giving your money to that industry and it's still a high quality piece and you can support a local business
"SHE MAY BE A MOB WIFE, BUT SHE STILL DRINKS FROM A STANLEY CUP" 🗣🗣🗣
Hey Robert, I absolutely love watching your videos and I just watched an older one where you're doing a tutorial and how much you like making them but nobody watches. I LOVE,LOVE watching tutorials and I'm not the only one. Please,please,please do more. I love your makeup style!! Thanks, love your videos ❤
What they are calling “Mob Wives” aesthetic…. Is kinda just how we mostly dress in New Jersey 🤷♀️
"She may be a mob wife but she still drinks from a Stanley Cup" I'm dead! you're too funny Robert!
My fiance was the one who told me about this trend lol he said "look, it's you with the animal print jackets and hair". Anyaays, I'm about over these niche trends. They contribute to unoriginalality and having to buy a whole new wardrobe, and basically change yourself for what's popular. I guess it's always been that way but i feel like social media has turned it into, as you mentioned, cosplay in a way. Over it!
My look is 'I don't buy anything new until something old goes out the door'
It rotates with 'I'm getting older, skin care doesn't fight aging, and hate my winkles',
'oh look, I'm still fat but ooo, chips and cocktails', and
'I might be poor, and I need a haircut and a full body wax, but I'm not shopping at Temu'
Honestly it’s just rich, glamorous socialite with a fancy name slapped on top, and people decided to take that name and run with it
It's giving "unhealthy escapism". I love changing my hair to change my vibe, but I'm not adopting a whole new personality for funsies while stepping all over actual lived experiences, donning it as a costume.
Omg I’m obsessed with your eye makeup! The pink eyebrow is giving!
I am SO GLAD you brought up the Pink Honey drama. Would love for you to talk more about this!!
This is hysterical! I actually grew up with real mobsters as my neighbors back in the 80's. In fact, i had a couple of friends whose fathers owned,"Cement Trucking Companies." Yeah, we all knew it was a cover. 😂 But these were legit mobsters. These trends are insane.
Same, except it was used cars business. My bf would have to drive cars to Texas from CA. Uh, sure Dude, it’s “not a drug run.” Scary times.
Ask Adrianna from the Sopranos if being a mob wife was fun 💁🏻♀️
Nah fr. Chrissy was not playing with her 😂😂
Lol
Yeah well she screwed up!!! She's knew the deal and she broke the rules!!!
I’m sure being a stripper forced to do certain things because you have no other means to isn’t fun either yet many women dress like them for fun every day. Many women even dress Victorian era like even though the women back didn’t have much rights. Personally I think this is ridiculous to get offended by. Acting like this is a part of their content. I’d understand if it were a certain hate group imagery but this? Come on. I wonder if it’s actually Italians who are offended, or “Italian American”
it’s a show
I just took this as people emulating Sofia Vegara's new mob wife character in the same way that everyone dressed in pink for Barbie. I'm surprised the show wasn't mentioned because I feel like it's what kicked off this trend
I used to watch the actual show ‘Mob Wives’ and that shit is crazy. People need to stop with romanticizing criminals and criminal activities and copying things they know nothing about. Same thing with the whole Gypsy Rose thing. People are embarrassing…
As an American with an Italian background, and a Chicago resident who after all these years we still hear about Al Capone, which is nothing to boast about, I find it to be insulting to American/Italians and TIKTOK Influencers who like this look are stupid and don’t live in reality.
I'm sorry but the audacity you have to look so amazing. The makeup, the COAT! 10/10
I am OBSESSED with your eyeshadow look. It is stunning!
First I heard the term “mob wife look” (the video wasn’t subtitles) I genuinely thought they said “mogwai look”. And it didn’t surprise me in the least that people were apparently starting to dress up as Gremlins.
The pink scar is serving looks!!!! 🔥 love you so much!!
LMAO "this video will be irrelevant soon" 🤣
Just had to rewatch this as when I first watched it I was in hospital still coming round from general anaesthetic (nothing worrying lol just a small surgery) so I barely remembered it. Glad I rewatched, loving this new channel.
Those of us who are of a particular age and were in our 30's and 40's wore all of these outfits and jewelry including fur. It was chic and classy. In this day and age to some it may look tacky or garish. It never was frowned upon it was what mini skirts and neru was in the 60's. Lot's of women who had no dealings with the mob rocked it.
“She maybe a mob wife, but she still drinks from a Stanley cup” is WILD😂
As someone who briefly dated a guy who was mafia it's NOT fun and should NEVER be romanticised.
Not me walking about with faux fur coats, big hair and lots of make up and big earring seeing this thinking ah well now the young team might think I’m cool now 😂 x
I dont do trends at 52...i am just me...i wear minimal natural make up and have all one length hair that is waist length.idc who does what but im going to ALWAYS just be me...thats my old and new trend...and you Robert are a whole vibe and trend❤❤❤
54 here and I totally approve this comment !!!! 😂😂😂😂 have an awesome day 😊😊😊
@@Shadele1969thanks❤
Same here. I’m an 80s kid so I’ve been in the big hair trend since I was a teen. I like it just because I like it. 😂😂😂😂
80s teen here….I will now and forever rock my Bob hairstyle, I have MY style and damn it I rock it …..😂
I’m 22 and never do trends either ( it’s giving I spend my life on the internet)
I also find it funny how Americans who have heritage from Italy but have grown up with an Americanized bastardization of Italian culture from 50+ years ago is trying to tell others what is Italian and not. Plus, it's quite insulting to Italians to call "mobs" Italian culture. Anyone in Italy or with actual ties to Italians knows that they despise the mobs and that they're the cause for a lot of hardships and insecurity in the country.
This is the most confusing part to me. Imagine trying to gatekeep the mob lol.
@HeathenDivine some people like being "other" and an outlaw type. Those types always exist.
Absolutely true. They have 0.01% of whatever blood and claim it. It's always "I'm of italian/irish/scottish/german descent"...No Ashley, you're american. Nothing special. Like all the rest of us.
Thank you!! My god every Italien-american I’ve ever met doesn’t even speak Italien! Also fun fact, a monster was the one who started the Las Vegas strip
@flimsyenthusiasm5769 we don't speak Italian because most of our Italian family came over in the late 1800s and early 1900s and at that time, immigrants wanted to be "American " and didn't teach their kids their mother tongue and didn't pass down a lot of the traditions of the motherland. It's quite sad and a persistent problem, especially amongst various Caucasian groups. I became obsessed with connecting to my roots. It heals the soul.
Thank you so much for touching on the real issues here. Love you for it.
I'm so glad I'm not on TikTok, but I do appreciate Robert filling me in on what's going on!
Not me washing a knock off Stanley cup as you mention Kirsty next door 🙈😂
So they finally moved on from the Chicanas and cholas? People can do their makeup and blah blah blah however they want but they don't want to recognize or respect the hardships that go along with the lifestyles they're mimicking. And that's the issue here. It's offensive because people will hop on trends that imitate people and cultures that are otherwise mocked. We've seen this recently with "Hot Cheeto Girls" "Cholas" "Chongas" and "Guidettes" and I'm sure more but I've been off social media for a while.
Thank you. I don't get why this is big deal. Why is this a feminist cause to stop? White women and others have dressed in gang life out fits. Most black women or men aren't thugs but we dress like that. Most Latinos aren't in gangs but dress like they are.
What can you do?...
Chicanas are beautiful to me for some reason, i love the look ❤
Your makeup is incredible here! Love the color in the eyebrow!!
you absolutely served with this look robert 💕
The mob "aesthetic" has actually been on tiktok for yearss, there were (or still are idk) even creators whose entire profile and content was based around acting, dressing, and walking (yes walking lol) like a "mob" boss. Some of these creators would even rent like a castle together to film aesthetic "mob" content together....
Jesus wept
I was looking for a comment about this! All I could think about was all the guys shown in Kurtis Conner's "TikTok Mafia" video
@@mirlambdasame the kurtis video is all i could think of. it was from like four years ago so people have sadly been doing this for a long time.
I am just happy that most likely, at least in the Northern hemisphere, it's gonna be over as soon as the weather starts getting warmer...hard to wear faux fur in 35 C degrees heat lol
Be who you want to be. Dress the way you want. Make yourself happy. Please yourself first.
OMG I'm so distracted (in the best way) with how you've done your eyebrow scar! It's glorious! 😍
I love your eyebrow make up! It reminds me of Kintsugi, where broken pottery is mended and the cracks are coated with gold!
If there's no Big Ang moment I'm going to riot! RIP Big Ang!
😭😭😭❤️🩹

Robert this makeup and outfit have me GAGGED omg its so good
Loving your fur coat. I remember the trend from months ago that was ‘can you survive as a rich girl friend/wife that fit the visual aesthetic of the mob wife trend
In regards to the trends being completely different from each other, I've noticed that too. When people were tired of the overly contoured glam looks from 2016, they moved onto more colorful looks with the heavy blush and thick eyeliner. Then they moved onto a pseudo-natural direction with the feather brows and clean girl aesthetic. And I guess people want bold make-up again.
Robert looks very fierce today! I love this entire look! Is THIS “mob wives?” 😂
Never gone on to TikTok, nor followed their trends. It’s too much…the changes, the desire for internet fame…
LOVE the fur coat ... and the eyebrow accent!!!🖤🖤🖤
We did this briefly back when Sopranos came out, and it is one trend that should never have returned.
WE didn't...they really weren't aspirational characters back then....or now!6_>
I'm so glad that I'm already an old and grumpy millennial and I can absolutely not give a quack about trends or any people telling me what biscuits I need in my pantry to claim a mob wife aesthetics. Like fr catching up with TikTok seems absolutely mentally exhausting, and all I need from social media is just another video from any Welsh twin and I'm good. Life is great 💜🖤
This is the best comment here❤
So true! That people genuinely think they need to change their entire look due to a trend have no personal style or identity. I understand it more from high schoolers or people in their early 20s who are still experimenting with style, but full grown adult women acting like they need to change their whole look because of a trend is embarrassing.
Fellow millennial here… yeah this obsession with TikTok trends is honestly embarrassing. They seem to be sapping any idea of developing your own personal style… why he a sheep when you can be a lone wolf, with your own distinctive style!?
OVE the way you've turned the little area on your eyebrow into a little bit of flash! Well done, Robert!
You couldn't pay me to follow trends or spend a second of my valuable time on Tiktok.
I think what they’re trying to achieve is a Femme Fatale aesthetic
Depends on the era of Femme Fatale
Nah that was like last year
It’s like Rockstar Girlfriend from last year but with less leather, more fur, and brighter red lipstick
Whatever it is, it sure looks kinda trashy
Why Italians think they are the only once who had mob wifes and this aesthetic?
They are not Italians they are Americans
Your makeup is beyond amazing!! 😍🤩🩷
