I dress more on the classy side.. But I will say it's for a more mature crowd. Like 30+ because it's definitely boring dressing like you're an old lady going to a business meeting all the time. If you're a young woman, experiment with your style. Have fun and don't be ashamed about it.

I think it's more about class and class is not something that a person gets with age. Even in hs there were just some girls just embodied class and femininity. Then you look at their mothers and u can see the same style and mannerisms. I think it's just a style thing some ppl are more trendy, like there's 50+ fashion designers who are on trend; I think it's whatever ur going for. I do agree that you don't have to wear a business suit to achieve a certain classic/classy look, I've literally seen woman wear tennis attire or sun dresses and still pull off the classic style.

Is it masculine sweet. I wear a lot of men's colognes. Givenchy pi is one of my ultimate favorites. The Paco rabanne millionaire. Armani code it's the black bottle with the gold top.

They were before all of the horrible trends of fake tan, BBL, caterpillar lashes, crazy looking wigs/weaves, underwear for clothes, tons of facial piercings and body tattoos, cake face makeup, 10 inch long nails, etc...And yet, they were so simple and aesthetically pleasing. I don't agree with these women claiming they are "dressing how they want" because would these awful beauty trends really be their true style without the influence of social media, instabaddies, tiktok, and fast fashion websites??

Okay I thought it was me. Calling them “cheap” is not even a positive construction. It’s literally just her opinion of what looks “classy”. She’s should have titled this things I believe to be tacky. She’s saying these like it’s law and no its not lol. She doesn’t fit in the genre. Just because you can’t rock it or you don’t like it doesn’t mean its “Trashy,Cheap,or Tacky”.

@@jesusmywholehaschanged a good example would be the concept of the "clean girl aesthetic", the point of it is to look "soft, simple, and feminine", almost reminiscent of the "no makeup look" of models when going out on a casual day. This, however, may not be easily replicated by some people, this is because some people are more prone to acne breakouts or different skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis, that would therefore require these people to spend more money on facial care products just to achieve a societally "attractive" face, not to mention the concealer needed to cover up such blemishes in order to maintain a "simple" yet "good looking" face. There are subtle things in a "soft/natural feminine appearance" that can make a huge impact if you're trying to look "simple" or "effortlessly pretty" such as the acne example I just mentioned. Another good example is maintaining groomed eyebrows; there are the rare women who have naturally bushy but mostly neat brows that require minimal grooming, however, most women would still need to groom and fill in their brows, which means, well, more money to spend on two products when there are some women who are lucky to not need those products anyways. We can also use this example for eyebags that are caused by certain health conditions, or those who's teeth grew incorrectly (thus requiring these people to need braces when some people just have naturally "pretty" teeth). By now, you can just tell me that "it isn't necessary to spend that much", but like I just said, it's the little things in one's appearance that can make or break their "soft attractive feminine appearance", especially if they don't have naturally "attractive" facial features (and I say this sOLELY in a societal sense). Surely, there are the lucky women who can rely on solely a facial wash, moisturizer, and a bit of blush, lipstick, and mascara to look "attractive", but if these people set the standard of what an "attractive yet natural looking woman" looks like (unintentionally), then that would make it difficult for other women to achieve that standard too without having to spend more than these "fortunate" women. You can also argue that "to be soft/naturally attractive means that we should go au naturel and not use much products anyways", but like I say, this is unintentional for MOST people (not all, i made the distinction) to notice the minor flaws in someone's face. If your face isn't "conventionally attractive" already and all these little "imperfections" add up, it's gonna be more difficult to just walk around outside in a completely bare/natural appearance (and yes I meant "natural" in a way where we also give up shaving, using perfumes to enhance out smells, etc. bc body hair is, by all definitions, "natural" and humans don't "naturally" smell like perfume, etc). If you're fine not doing any of those efforts to make yourself look better, that's great and all, but then this video wouldn't be of any help to you, and I'm already guessing that most women still follow conventional beauty standards if they have to watch this video to decide whether or not they're "naturally feminine" in a good way or not.

@@jesusmywholehaschanged and yes my explanation is lengthy because i prefer to ramble my thoughts to make sure that I'm not forgetting as many points as I can, you said you didn't understand something, therefore I'm giving you as much of an explanation as possible. Plus, "i have soft, feminine appearance without spending a lot" is partially ruled by genetics and health conditions, something I pointed out in my previous comment, which is a privilege not all women can rock naturally.

It depends how good the hair stylist is. Nicki Minaj's stylist does that style for a lot of the celebrity women and you can't even tell it's a frontal.
