I’ve literally been researching this myself over the last week 😂 my conclusion is only one necklace at a time and not more than 2 bracelets on each wrist and only one ring on each hand ONLY on the ring finger. Chunky rings look kinda masculine. Huge stones are almost as bad as huge logos, and watches often look masculine, you don’t need one imo. Also: pearls 😍

Finally someone says it (❤️ from italy) . Style Is about lines and the harmony of It all. Clothing is a rich culture that some brands try to make it their own, you don't have to be rich to be stylish. Elegance Is in the culture, if you can have clean clothes and take care of your hygiene you can walk proudly and with elegance. :-* I've seen rich people looking terrible with their expensive clothes. Clothing is a form of respect towards others and the situation you are in, in Europe we could never go to the supermarket or in university (!!!) in pijama not because we are pretentious but because we find it disrespectful.

Anna, thank you for giving an honest appraisal of your feet. Often people refuse us our own realistic view of our bodies - as if it's a sin to be straightforward, honest and accepting of "non-perfection"! You reviewed your own feet but didn't reject them. Your acceptance of your features as they are helps you to choose items that are flattering to you. It's the best lesson for all of us. Wear what feels good. Try an item that you're attracted to but are "too shy" or "too _____" once in awhile for fun - and if that feels good then take another risk. Our clothes ought to be enjoyed. Cheers!

[@htstyle]

[@argusfleibeit1165]

She seems awfully uptight about having "big feet" or "big calves" or looking short by having her legs "cut off" by different styles. So not really self-acceptance. I'm glad I wasn't very old before I decided I could use my own judgement and need for comfort and practicality over some "styling expert" to tell me what to wear. She didn't show one shoe to me that I would wear.

[@bitrudder3792]

@@argusfleibeit1165 - Just curious. Do you consider yourself to be “elegant?” That isn't everyone's goal, or main goal, or daily goal. It's a choice, and she occasionally mentions that items that look elegant one one person doesn't look as good on the next (like how she didn't look as good in some of Kate Middleton's elegant items). People can choose to look focus on looking natural, edgy, chic/nonchalant, on trend, dramatic, etc. Comfort needs can trump style preferences. It's all a choice. Anna advises on her interpretation of elegance within her world, and she has grown in her understanding (like how using the colors most compatible with your innate coloring and contrast adds elegance). I expect to see her expand on and refine her advice over time, as she values ongoing education. She makes a solid point in this video, one to notice if you haven't done so before: visual horizontal lines, like those created by ankle straps (Especially in a contrasting color or value), literally changes how long your vertical line looks. Some people have never thought of looking for that. They can see in the video exactly what that looks like. So they can take that lesson When they go shopping and see whether or not an outfit or a shoe appears to do that to them. They can expand it, maybe picking a dark shoe and dark sunglasses to balance contrast without interrupting a light colored outfit between them, for example. Or, they can do the simple thing and find nude shoes to wear with other kinds of outfits. Now, if you want to look spunky and playful, that might not be a strategy you want to employ. And that’s fine. You understand the principal and you might choose to break up your line horizontally a lot to achieve that.

Thank heavens for someone else seeing that the latest shoe fashions are wild. I have to admit that I love my gladiator sandals. I get away with it because I have long legs and am tall, also because I fall in to the flamboyant elegance class. So I do feel that there are nuances here. I think the trick here is that you wear these type of shoes if you are tall with long legs and that you were them as the statement element of your outfit. I am always sure to wear them with a plain dress and very minimal jewellery so that the shoes are the only striking part of the outfit.

[@mcgulliksen2021]

I can completely relate to all of this. I have been wearing a US Size 11 / Euro 41 or 42 since I was 11 years old. I also have a narrow foot so it is hard to find my size. When I do, I tend to get them all (I also went to private school for 12 years & wore a uniform & I pretty much dress this way ever since to the office or out). Shoes have always been a painful subject for me. I never want to get anything that will make my foot look bigger or longer than it already is. I laughed at the "shark shoe" because my mother took me to an orthopedic shoe store when I was 11 & got almost this same shoe in the mid 1970s. All that said, pick the best quality you can afford even if not designer or luxury - you have to be kind to your feet. I am very lucky in a way that my mother worked when most women did not (she was "Depression Era" & had me later in life), she worked in New York City, she knew what to wear, what not to wear, what not to wear on your feet especially. I may not have grown up with money but she never skimped on my shoes & stressed this when I started working to save for the purse but buy the GOOD SHOES now. If you take good care of them (use a shoe cobbler to fix at end of season) & not follow trends, you will have them for many years. Thank you for sharing this important information, Anna.

[@SilSolo]

I can relate lol my feet expanded to a size 10N and I hope they don’t get longer(I run a lot). Otoh I feel like I can pull off half the things that make feet look wider like thongs if they’re slim. Gladiator sandals with lots of adjustable parks yes please

Ana, can you please make a video in how to dress when you have dr appointments...My family makes fun of me because they think I over dress...But I know I don't...these days , people think wearing jogging cloths and open thong sandals are great to go every where...I hope this topic interests you in making a video..Hugs from FL.

[@solidcatink]

Excellent topic suggestion. I get made fun of, as well, because I dress like a proper lady when going to medical appointments.

[@MarieTheOstrich]

actually a great idea

[@tawnyeyes368]

Hi, I am a Med student! I would actually suggest everything you easily slide in and out so that you can be ready for examination fast, I would suggest an "airy", not too tight, blouse, tailored trousers instead of a skirt and instead of thights and loafers, minimal to no jewelry and minimal to no makeup (so that it doesn't smudge when you get dressed quickly after examination) Honestly, I think a doc wouldn't mind how you are dressed, in my personal opinion I would appreciate it if my patients dress well and appear polished, it's a sign they take good care of themselves 😊 don't really mind what your family says 🤣🤣

[@hotbitch13]

Elegant ladies dont go to doctors. They are in perfect health.

[@tawnyeyes368]

@@hotbitch13 I do recommend a check up every two years (gynecologist once a year) though, to recognize malignant diseases in advance. Pregnancy is also a time of a lady's life in which she is subject to more medical attention

[@maryam.m]

Ohh nooo, Anna, the pair of derbys were actually so nice! I think the styling is what determines if they look elegant or not. Sure, they may not be "sexy" but having a slight masculine edge to your footwear can actually work really well in an otherwise feminine wardrobe. A contrasting element can bring a lot of interest to your outfit! Instead of the dainty pair of ballet flats, I would have demonstrated a pair of loafers to get the same effect in perhaps more flattering way.

[@mariakern6793]

it depends often on your work demands and your body statute and medical issues, whether you can wear this or that , and I also find Birkenstock bulky but they have adjusted foot bed and no any other replacement got it yet, only if some sneakers, but with some medical foot issues it is not possible to wear closed shoe, only if 2-3 sizes bigger as your usual size...

[@Redwhiteblue-gr5em]

This video is about shoes that look elegant and is not about shoes that help if you have foot problems.

[@Gypsypriestess]

Thank you so much for making this video. I’m about to go through my entire closet and get rid of stuff that is outdated or no longer suits me. I have three whole bins full of sandals, boots and pumps. I’m 4’ foot 10”, I never would even think that some of my shoes might be making me look a lot shorter. I just went shopping online. I bought a really nice pair I espadrilles that were on sale. I can wear in the summertime as they go with a few really pretty maxi dresses I already have.This video is definitely going to help me simplify my wardrobe.. Thank you Anna..

[@tiffanysperez9365]

Anna could we get an elegant winter shoe video? I live in a place that gets a lot of show and while I completely agree with you on shoes that are thick and clunky it’s hard not to for thick snowy winters

[@flower48212]

Yes, I live in northern Michigan, it's always icy, snowy and slippery outside wintertime. That's why everyone wears those thick chunky boots

[@Adrianablue2]

I know I ve wore the same horrible boots all winter

[@tayh.6235]

Even though my own style is more casual most of the time, I still like videos like this that can help me know how to achieve a more elegant look when that's what I want.

[@simonescott8972]

It all comes down to what works for you.

[@elizabethudoekong7327]

This is why not everything you see on social media or people wearing and you feel it will fit into you Some ladies should probably know what fit them

[@TheAmyG]

Loving the warmer hair colour, Anna; it suits you well. Thank you for making this video; I was shocked whilst shopping on the NM website recently; who is purchasing these shoes? I’d love to know 🤣

[@KG-le3ss]

You saved my day, I couldn't stop laughing at every shoe performance. Anna, you are great! Thank you so much!

[@naturevsgrace]

So thankful to see I’m not going (too) crazy, ha. The wide square shoe reminds me of a platypus and I simply cannot un-see it + clear shoes start to quickly resemble sweat tinted saran/cling wrap😣 Also- your evolution is POWERFUL! You’ve softened even more deeply to a compassionate, ultra feminine woman.

[@marijalepiceva6551]

Hi Anna. This was the first video I watched from you. I have a question. What to wear, if: - I g=have pretty wide feet; - My feef was broken and i have restrictions to wear heals on daily basis; - if there is no stripe around anckle i can't wear heal; and as per surgeon shoes have to be comfortable, supporting feet and not pressing on bone that was broken. thank you in advance! Maria

[@candym8639]

this video is silly everybody has different taste. It has nothing to do with whether or not you have “class”!

I agree with the last shoes, flats with a pointy toe looks awful on anyone and it makes your feet look super long and clownish.

I love this video! I wanted to shout multiple times “SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK” lol

[@bellad1063]

😂 the first shoe I failed -i would have come out just like that - tahdahhh!! I have pearl colored Birkenstock Myra I believe 😂 it’s cute.. helppp!!

[@bekihodgson4]

I've recently bought a pair of tan leather flip flops they're elegant and comfy and in a skin tone. I think you'd approve Anna.

[@TH-eb5ro]

The shoe comparison needs to be comparable; Birkenstocks are worn for their support so your recommendation would need to feature the reason those shoes are chosen. Many women, men do not appreciate shoes which are not based on comfort even if fashionable. Loafers and other flats are good options. Chunky heal/not depends on your foot health, body physiology and long-term health goals. Foot, posture health is more important than fashion. Good basic pumps are the best and some with a bit more elevated look also useful. The subtitles cover your feet.

[@toniodejimi3905]

Agreed with the chunky loafers. They can been worn in a way that’s still classy and elegant. They’re ridiculously comfortable and make a look cohesive without sacrificing comfort.

[@samanthasavarese7631]

She not even knows the meaning of the word comfort…. This is people who dresses to attract men… the annihilation of 120 years of women emancipation is here on this channel 😂

[@taniaquiroz19]

I love the fact that you don't make those long intros! Thank you Anna you are the best!!

[@cee1970]

These are great points! As someone who has thicker short legs and big ankles certain shoes can make you look shorter and fatter. It’s important to try to look the best with what you’ve got no matter your size.

[@franciscacorcelles636]

How u describe those off shoes parallels w/ mine😅.. u perfectly described it.. I don't need to be trendy if it looks awful in my legs or will ruin my overall appearance.. thank u.. it affirms my notion about those kind of footwear.

[@stephaniemoura9325]

Im not usually looking for a elegant or very feminine look, I’m more on the cute and edgy side of things but I watched the video to the end and I’ve understood why despite wanting to be trendy I never liked most of the trendy shoes you showed us as not elegant haha, guess I might have some of an elegant part in my personal style then. Thank you for the video

[@meshell7987]

Anna, this is your best video recently! I really like the idea that you share what to wear instead and give the positive examples. I would love to see in future this kind of videos - what not to wear and what to wear instead :))

[@milamila5621]

[@Mouse73]

I love your videos. They show me I am not an elegant woman at all. I mean, I wear safety boots all the time because they are comfortable and durable. They work best with my lifestyle. However, if I ever need to go to a formal function, I know what kinds of shoes to look for to elongate my leg and look classy.

[@alcudiababe1]

I have to have shoes with an ankle strap I don't feel safe in any form of high heeled shoes otherwise but it is interesting that you picked a natural neutral tone with your legs - I recently bought some in a neutral style to go with a certain type of dress and they are very comfortable but I love your explanation about how they make your legs look longer than they really are - thanks Anna ❤️

[@mountain85]

What I think is elegant is not judging women or girls based on what shoes they can AFFORD to buy. Buying expensive brands and leather , doesn't automatically make you elegant!

[@Redwhiteblue-gr5em]

But it certainly helps. And the video is about fashion elegance, not behavior
