4 years ago, I've made a comment saying this video was a joke. Now I think much differently. I don't know what had triggered me so much about this video. Now I think this video is perfect and has an important message and very useful tips. My taste, my style and my perspective have evolved so much over the years, much of it is thanks to the intelligent and kind people on KZbin, like Aly.

[@هُناعبير]

I don't understand the hate in the comments. I think they miss her point. She is showing the lines between looking attractive and elegant and looking let's say "cheap" maybe! She is not being judgmental what so ever. She is just explaining some facts people.

[@jamiecone9151]

Don't worry it's just third wave wanna be feminists missing the entire point of the video and when they don't agree with something that goes against their cult following they attack with such viciousness because they themselves feel demoralized. Ironic though , when they lack morals themselves 🤣

Well, that depends on und what you mean by modern society. 2 examples are the 80s and the early til mid 2000s. The fashion was very flashy in both, and in the 2000s it was also very "open", as Aly would say 😉 And women started wearing very very shorts in the 60s, much shorter than Julia Roberts shorts were, in pretty woman.

I used to cake masses of makeup on my face everyday. I couldn't go on a night out without fake eyelashes. At one point as a teenager I would wear two padded bras. I spent years with low self esteem, and social anxiety hiding behind a mask. Then in my 30s, I stopped wearing padded bars (I am very flat), stopped wearing makeup- even mascara, and stopped dying my hair which has a fair amount of grey in it. I had to literally get to know myself again! I then went through a phase of looking like a bit of a feral hippy- long straggly hair and baggy clothes. I just wanted to feel as natural as possible whilst I found myself again. Recently, age 35, I learned about what clothes suit my shape and I cut my hair. I exercise and eat well and look quite healthy. I am beginning to have confidence in my authenticity. I am loving that my ancestors have shaped how I look and that my interesting looking face with my high forehead is individual and beautiful. There is nothing wrong with my body even if I am angular and slim.

[@Indiegirl007]

People getting triggered over nothing. Did you guys not even listen to the video? Jesus. She was teaching a course about style, and you guys saw the title and instantly pulled out the picket signs. She did not say women can not look sexy. Infact, she produced examples of some of these trends, done the RIGHT way She said if we wear ALL OF THESE trends at once, the skimpy clothes with the differen textures, the over done makeup, the heels that don't go with the outfit, the 'unkept' hair and makeup, ALL OF THESE TOGETHER make you look CHEAP. Like a prostitute. A porn star. A homeless woman. And for all of your 'leave porn stars alone!' soap boxing, you guys do know that porn stars don't look the same when they're not performing, right? They scale back the makeup, sometimes by 100%. They don't dress skimpy either. They look like regular women. Which, they are. I actually find it offensive that all of you women who are objecting to this video are ASSUMING that Pornstars WANT to look like the type of women that they are depicting in their films. These are characters. They are acting. How dare you guys assume that looking cheap is something that they enjoy.

[@ambercotrone]

Alicia J I don’t agree with all aspects of the video, but I agree that it’s almost as if you don’t exploit your sexuality nowadays, you’re not going to have success. The pressure is real. However, I don’t judge that kind of behavior cause it’s become so widespread that it is almost expected, not to mention it’s hard to know where to draw the line. I don’t agree with the whole choker and hoop earring thing and some of her other points cause that isn’t a sexual style choice to me.

That speech you gave in the end really resonated with me. This is a very important message for young girls and women. Great job!

[@alejandrabruzual]

Aly explains that there are many elements that must be taken into account according to the time and the occasion. When a girl is dressed in full attire, she should evaluate whether it is exaggerated according to the occasion or not. She is not judging negatively anyone. She explains that by combining the elements, in some way, they will make you look cheap or out of context. Aly explains it perfectly. The environment, the context and the occasion are fundamental when we choose our outfit, accessories and other things such as makeup, etc. It also makes a very interesting reference and it is knowing how to choose the hair color and how to combine it to give a message. Unfortunately, people tag you when they see you. Regardless of whether they know you or not, they tag you according to your appearance. Their first visual impression, even if you do not want it, will tag you at first glance. Aly I agree with you and your comments seem very useful to point out important aspects when combining the elements in our personal presentation. Aly You have my support. Receive a hug from me and thanks for your videos!

Wow! I'm shocked to see what a negative backlash this got. This comment is probably going to get buried, but I think people are too quick to jump to the guns without understanding what she really means. Nobody said it's wrong or bad to look or to be a porn star. All she is saying that combining too many of those elements makes for an exaggerated and overly sexualized look. If that's what you're going for, good for you. Otherwise, it's better knowing how to dosage those elements, so you can still be sexy, without it being "too much" - hence, this guide was made. Probably Aly should've treated the subject like walking on eggshells, but it's sad how overly offended people get on the internet.

the comment section makes me kinda sad ): there's so many people getting triggered without even bothering to understand the message Aly is trying to convey. she never judge anyone for wearing this item or liking that style--she even showed the example of the elements she mentioned being worn in a classy and elegant way. i think it's great that she encourage young women not to get influenced and pressured by what society or media think is beautiful, because everyone has their own charming points that they need to embrace.

[@thedocument9541]

I agree with this video 100%. I don't understand the backlash, do people actually think Kim Kardashian and Insta baddies are classy ? Do you think you're classy when you copy them? It's very obviously cheap BUT if that's what you like it's okay, you will attract similar people to you.There's a reason why Kim Kardashian isn't dating David Gandy, Jon Hamm or Idris Elba or why Kylie Jenner isn't friends with Elle Fanning, Lily Collins , Zendaya or Emma Watson. And it's their CHOICE.

[@nimedhel09]

I think the biggest problem with the look and the story behind the "porn" look is that it objectifies women even more as sexual objects, and not as individuals. There's nothing wrong with adding one or even a few of the elements talked about here, but, if your look exacerbates your womanly sensuality soooo much, it does kind of lead to that image of a sexual object more than a human being. I'm not saying it is the woman's fault, because it is certainly not, it's society's fault, as women are usually pushed in that direction of being sensual and pleasing to the masculine eye. That's what the patriarchy is about, it's not about what a woman is, but how a man perceives a woman. Women should be sexy, but not too much or too little. If they are, you can criticize and disrespect them, because they don't respect themselves. That's how society thinks. The big problem, however, is that girls feel pressured to look a certain way, to please the eyes of men from a young age, and one of their sources are celebrities and porn stars ,as many boys will fantasize about them. A girl that has that look will, of course, attract attention, and will be popular to boys, but she won't be respected, because there's also the stigma surrounding porn stars, there's the stigma of looking too sexy.

​@@agynes8827 Exact!!! The truth is that many times the same women criticize others for not seeing themselves "in a sensual way" and the problem is that turning yourself into a sexual object reflects how empty you are inside, and it is terrible that both men and women are bombarded by these things, because none of this will make you happy.

[@kiwigirljacks]

Enjoyed this video. Especially the message at the end. It’s so true that seeking that type of attention never makes you happy, satisfied or contented long term. It’s so hollow in the end. Because what you are seeking can only be gotten from within. No one else can give that self worth to you, you have to find it within. I’ve been down that path before of seeking attention in the wrong ways and it’s a lonely endeavour. Until I truly found contentment within myself. It truly has become a virus these days and it’s very sad.

Candy Kane I’m not just talking about ‘influencers’... I’m talking about, for example, those people we all know in our friends list who post hundreds if not thousands of selfies looking for self worth... or those who are extremely insecure and are looking for people to constantly boost their self esteem. Or those women who, as Aly states, don’t feel alive unless they are getting constant attention from men (or women). Who feel depressed without that constant attention, it’s like a drug to them. Sadly, that is not the way to find contentment or happiness long term. I’m talking about the extreme cases of this.

The saddest part of this look is that it projects a belief that a womans highest life priority should be to cater themselves the flavors of the other gender. To work long and hard hours to render themselves palatable to the attention of men. By doing so, we implicitly ascert that the validity and importance of their desires is above ours. But why?? We are both equals. Every human being has so much more to live and offer than a purpose of catering to the taste of someone else. Our lives have other profound objectives and forms of value. Let's live and act for ourselves now, our life minutes pass us by! Lets form experiences and memories that indulge in US, not restlessly aimed to indulge someone else.

Girl, you’re so innocent. I’ve honestly been doing a lot of research on the internet about this topic because of how disgusted I am with porn culture and it turns out that all men watch porn. Or at least all men who watch porn want me to believe that all other men watch it regularly too. It makes me sick to my stomach that society (including a lot of women) wants to normalize it so desperately as if it’s completely normal. When I display my disapproval of it, men on the internet go nuts and are sooo defensive about it and tell me that I’m a “prude” or “sexually repressed” which I’m absolutely not. They also say that I will never be able to find a life partner who doesn’t watch porn and that watching it multiple times a week is totally normal for any healthy person with a sex drive (which is again utter bullshit). I don’t know what to believe honestly. All I know is that the way porn displays sex is so disgusting, vulgar and filthy. It cheapens the relationship between a man and woman and is so degrading. There’s no way I want the father of my children to be a porn viewer because such a man would look at everything from the lens of perversion !

I love this video and hiw frank you were, I adore how you pointed out all the weak points of our today's society/trends going around and I really did feel like the "girl" that you were talking in the end of the video that feels obligated to follow something that doesn't feel in sink with herself, unorganic, it is funny that I find myself in a crazy similar situation to the one you described if not the very same one, it truly felt like a wake up call, that I felt very strongly towards, but didn't know how to reach, I felt cornered to be that for a while and you really helped me free that doubt of going back to what I know and love. I think you are one of the last channels on this surface that produces any moral driven content, I admire your integrity and your courage to point out the issues, to break the problem down, as well as I love the fact that you bluntly speak your mind unlike most influencers that hold back in fear of negative feedback. You are one of a kind.

[@mervaa7467]

you’re a really great communicator. I love the message! Anyone that distorts the message is clearly part of the problem. In the end, doesn’t matter how good of a communicator you are, people will only understand what they WANT to understand. It’s very sad to see so many negative people here. Moderation should always be encouraged with every aspect of our lives, not just fashion. There clearly aren’t many KZbinrs out there brave enough to talk about this so 👏👏👏👏 bravo to you.

[@GrayWolfWRX]

The video has an unexpected message that really isn’t harsh for anyone whether you’re in agreement or not.

[@lira274]

i love all the effort and information you put in your videos ♡

[@Jooney91]

After reading the comments I would like to write one more thing: it is very, very interesting that girls who actually look like pornstars feel offended by your video... Because these girls are putting their photos every day on social media to actually BE JUDGED by likes and dislikes... :D

[@anfisakiryanova4552]

Kitty Seven Just like you tubers are putting their content out there to be JUDGED by likes and dislikes :D. You can judge other women and be an ass, but don’t be surprised when you get judged back :)

[@Jooney91]

Anfisa Kiryanova Nobody says you are not right, but it still sounds like bullshit to me since Aly was not trying to bash or offend anybody while some girls are writing really hurtful comments to her. Of course if you are putting anything on the internet you should expect people judging you and also disagreeing with you. However it is very sad that girls trying hard to look sexy, showing off their skin and catching wrong attention cannot understand what is wrong with this behaviour and type of look.

[@lilguyonhiswaytothemall]

Hey, my dude, I personally don't really like the Kardashian/modern look, especially on myself, I'm more in favour of purely 'cute' clothing, but I also disagree with the core message of this video. Though I found the whole video was mainly backpedaling after every statement. But her main message at the end of the video was basically "You're all beautiful, except those hoes who dress the the Kardashians who get all the male attention." (obviously I'm being more blunt than she is, but that's the main point). Personally I think everyone should have the right to wear whatever the hell they want, with no/little judgement (within the laws of that country of course). I get judged for what I wear, it's never pleasant. I've been called a whore or prostitute by some girls in some on my most modest outfits (Oversized jumper, jeans, and hair tied up), and I never want to do that to another girl. I don't have to like an outfit to think the girl wearing shouldn't be called a porn star.

[@user-yt5dg8nf6y]

Amen

[@lilguyonhiswaytothemall]

Muffy Chao What grace, what beauty, what a mature and adult response. 10/10

[@rileypotter1673]

I think a better title would be: how to look more classy and less cheap. It's not an easy topic. but it's a truth.

[@AlyArt]

Guys! When I added the pictures - I tried to show the element, and I didn't say that they looked like a porn star. Of course I found some pictures of real porn stars, but at the same time I chose some random pictures of the girls in internet where I could see that element. Sorry that it wasn't clear. I should probably have used only real porn stars pictures.

[@pearltheliar3761]

Aly Art why are you deleting comments you piece of trash

[@pearltheliar3761]

Aly Art “should’ve only used porn star pictures” YOU ARE A JOKE. Porn stars aren’t women? They’re less then women according to you and deserve to be shamed? Lmao girl get your life

[@aprilparker6446]

Or not use any pictures and leave people the fuck alone? Snotty bitch

[@pearltheliar3761]

Porn stars and “prostitutes” aren’t the same thing lmao you’re so ignorant.

[@Disfigurines]

Aly Art in a world where women are not only raised to compete and shame each other by a male dominated society I can’t believe we still have women like you making disgusting videos targeting sex workers and other women who’s appearance you don’t find “appropriate” . This comment only proves you’re antiquated and disrespectful toward women that don’t fit your perfect little mold of what should be “appropriate” Your video is nothing more than an over illustration of the misogynistic impulse to control and police female sexuality. YOU ARE TRASH. Using strangers pictures isn’t the only thing wrong with your video your message is utter garbage. Just because you have other pathetic insecure women singing your praises doesn’t mean you’re right. You’re not.

[@Vicki1951]

I think you are very brave. It needed to be said. Thank you. What color and brand of lipstick do you have on in this video, if you can remember.

[@jjgffhvfe]

I'm waiting for Aly to create a nice community on the KZbin that would understand the content better. I know everyone is free to express their opinion on the internet if they don't like something but I know more youtubers out there who don't go for this kind of look (like, Wayne Goss), criticise it and don't get that so many negative comments. (And, by the way, all the people who don't like the video: you have a right not to like it just like Aly has a right not to like some of the looks shown in the video!)

[@rubyrydinghood2600]

K Budzisz Yes, Wayne has classic taste. Very good, easy to follow tips. And he's so sweet.

[@dearmore3862]

I really love Aly attitude. We need this kind of advice especially today.

[@SoftTangerineDreams]

Right?! It's so honest and yet so polite. She puts it in a nice way and doesn't bash anyone. We all need to hear this!

[@omg27ful]

Excellent video filled with nuance and truth. Loved the message at the end! So prevalent even today.

[@mariahcooke5157]

Such a great video and a great message that is well needed in this day and age! I love your insight into fashion and beauty. The sad thing about everyone trying to look like the Kardashians or porn stars is that they lose their individuality and their unique beauty - they just all end up looking like barbie dolls cut from a cookie cutter. Embrace who you are and enhance your natural beauty with classiness - you can never go wrong! Keep up the good work Aly x

[@paulettekoj983]

OMG!! I'm so in love with this. You're so smart, and spoke all i wanna say. I live in Africa and most off girls really need to see this.

[@raisadiamantabingei8460]

Please don't delete this video. I needed this video more than I thought I did

[@nevertooold6498]

Excellent video and message. The ending is so true; it's too bad that we don't realize this when we are young - and usually not until we're much older and it makes sense. Thanks Aly!

[@martinasakura7146]

I wish I had this video when I was a teenager, or at least someone gave me this point of view.. now I got older (in my 20's) and I learned to embrace what I'm comfortable with, I look back and saw that this bombshell trend really has a big influence to younger people (cause I was one of them lol).. thank you Aly for this video. I am still on my journey in finding my own true style with the help of your videos. I gotta admit when I saw this particular video there are still old mindsets that I hold on to.. but now it all makes sense. there should be balance, in moderation, some elements should be like an occasional accessory and not a daily necessity (unless you're really going for that kind of look everyday, but not for me).. Thank you. I hope you're doing well and may you be repaid goodness and prosperity because of this generosity you give through your videos

[@vj563]

People may roll their eyes at this, but giving my life to Christ, being born again and becoming a Christian has given me a great peace I can't explain. I don't have any desire to try to attract someone's attention and am content with who I am and who God made me to be. It's very freeing and I wish I was like this as a teen and young adult. I feel like I wasted a lot of my life wanting to be like someone else, comparing myself to other girls, wishing I was pretty like others instead of just being happy with who I am. I like how Aly teaches you how to be happy with your own strengths and weaknesses and what to do to compliment them instead of trying to change them like the beauty industry does.

[@Gengibrecookie]

I have a romantic/theatric romantic bodytype, very curvilinear and I have difficulty in dressing "respectfully" because my body jumps from the clothes and easily becomes vulgar. Could you make a video about this?

[@beebikinis]

Carolina Paiva If you dress in an outfit that every other woman can pull off without looking sexual and still think you look "too much", don't apologize for having an amazing, beautiful figure. I have the same "problem", but honestly at this point, I can't help my figure, in fact I've chosen to love it, if someone thinks my relatively modest outfit is sexual then that is their problem.

[@Gengibrecookie]

beebikinis thank you sweetie, now i feel better. But i can't help that my hips show up easily. I don't like this hahaha

[@johannak1983]

I don't see how natural curves can be a problem tbh, but how about oversized clothes or loose jumpers/shirts that cover your hips? Anything less tight on your waist should be just fine.

[@Gengibrecookie]

Loose or oversized clothes made me very round, very strange and without dimension. And wide pants leave my hips and thighs huge. This is basically the point. Tight clothes mark too much and wide clothes make me huge. For what i understood aly saying, romantic types should use "cute, feminine" clothes. May i am wrong.

[@johannak1983]

Yeah, I totally see what you're saying since we probably have similar figures. Personally I don't have a problem with tight or sexy clothes, but I tend to dress mostly in a "cute, girly" way. Floral skater or wrap dresses, for example, are my go to's (always paired with flat shoes). Something like the ones below: picture-cdn.wheretoget.it/9rp43e-l-610x610-dress-floral+dress-floral-flowers-skater+dress-skater-forever+21-long+sleeves-bodycon+dress-bodycon.jpg www.forever21.com/images/4_full_750/00257858-03.jpg www.kularfashion.com/images/ax-paris-floral-skater-dress-black-floral-p1672-4191_medium.jpg nafdress.com/assests/images/forever-21-on-pinterest-forever21-forever-21-dresses-and-skater.jpg

[@clowndiary6047]

the takeaway message is more about how the porn industry makes girls/women want to change themselves more than it is about bashing pornstars.

[@Jooney91]

I love all your videos anyway, but this one really made me happy! Many young girls are struggling to find their identity - that is actually what puberty is about and it is okay, but nowadays it is way too easy to think that "sexy" is the right path to happiness... However it is not at all. I also had to find out - that being a woman means being beautiful, being powerful, selfconfident. Living in harmony with myself, my body. It does not mean living for myself! But living for what is truly important - for truth, love and peace. This is what we were "made" for. Trying to be interesting for other people is just waisting your time, it can never make you happy. I am so glad you are speaking about it, because our society needs that... Anyway I think that nowadays women are feeling unbeareble pressure to be perfect in everything (perfect body and face, but also perfect education, perfect job, perfect kids, perfect relationships) - but it does not work like this...

[@tlee8600]

This video is so good, thanks for making this I am in the beauty industry and love natural beauty looks and enhancing our natural features to bring out the best in you instead of being a clone of all these celebrities. Thanks for voicing some of my major concerns about the way people think you need to present yourself to be beautiful.

[@Todays-tip]

I SO ADMIRE your well thought out, clearly conscious ability to communicate so many aspects of how our desire for "style" moves into areas that young people (and some older people) have No Idea are involved in how they put themselves together! Your careful consideration of terminology and feelings on these aspects of style, and there by Life! I see It as a GIFT!!! To be able to express such things in the manner that you come across with I envy! It is Normal, Natural, and Fabulous for every girl to want to be pretty, or even sensual, but crossing the line of preciously "Gorgeous" into the vulgar is so easy to do, and I LOVE that you are making these videos to help us all be our Most Beautiful selves! The sense of concern that comes though is Very Sweet! Thank You! I wish you were my neighbor - I would love to chat!!!!

[@mjocosta8275]

For the butt is usually a liposuction combined with a brazilian butt lift. The videos about the procedure are BRUTAL.

[@annierigsby9062]

Really great advice about making sure the makeup matches the “story”. Would love a whole video on matching makeup looks to different outfits/events(daytime vs evening, everyday/work, day date, etc)

[@susiebit]

Great video. As a heavily tattooed woman who was influenced by images on Tumblr in my 20s, I now struggle a bit with how to look classy. I don't regret my tattoos but it certainly takes more effort finding a balanced look. Hope young girls have this in mind before getting a lot of ink.

[@NO-to9wr]

The best and most important video you‘ve ever made!

[@maryluztatiana7932]

I’m absolutely glad that you made this video. I was not expecting such a deep message. Good work Aly

[@shewassourgirl]

You are so right!!! Omg I need a friend like you in my life!! You’re so classy and stylish!

[@Elven.]

it's like you described this thing that's everywhere, but that I couldn't put into words! it's the porn vibe and it's viral, some people also curate the way they speak and the facial expression they make but it's again that vibe and it's a dangerous trap, thank you for this!

[@nienor1510]

This is such a great video! Especially the end! Thanks so much for making this :D

[@user-gz4zz8qf6r]

thank you aly, you're really one of the best makeup artists on youtube, you really know the actual 'rules' of makeup and don't just rely on trends like most of the others do :) you teach us how to feel beautiful in ALL our bodies and i appreciate that so much :) you are so so talented and i agree with this video so much, everything you said at the end - porn is very disturbing trend now a days

[@Minamibam]

this video is perfect, thank you so much Aly! the world's needing this

[@alexandraing]

100% agree with you about everything. 1 only element is not the problem is when some women over do or try. For some reason every women want to look the same and over sexualised, it looks tacky in my opinion. Great content🤗❤️
