Weekly Vlog | How I'm Growing on Instagram, My Annual Halloween Party, More DIYs! | Raven Elyse

[@RavenElyseTV]

I understand the intention behind telling me “I don’t have to explain myself” but as a content creator, you kinda do! Part of posting myself online is opening up the door for a lot of questions, confusion, assumptions…because you only get a percentage of information from my videos. This means that if I want people to understand me and have the right ideas about me or what I’m doing, then I have to communicate extra information for context. I can’t expect viewers to understand something I never explained. It makes me feel better to have the freedom and space to express myself in this way. I like being able to make myself clear, I like giving context and background info where needed. And most of all I like to talk and tell y’all how I’m feeling even if it’s negative sometimes. That’s life. We all have struggles, annoyances, insecurities…this is supposed to be my safe space to speak on those things!

[@carlajones9372]

Well Stated💯 ........ Love you and your way of doing things💞

[@SparkleWithPea]

[@mareebarron]

Loving the weekly vlogs feel like old days 💗🫶🏽

[@brookewilliams4726]

Girly! If you don’t have new clothes just put on pieces that are timeless so you’re not worried about a new trend but always looking stylish :)

[@staciii]

Yes a nice capsule wardrobe

[@anugigineishvili661]

I know finding a stylist is difficult but I would love to see someone look at her closet and put together new looks from what she has already!

[@maryburton9308]

Raven keep being you and doing you. Don't let the negative people get to you. You are an amazing mom and creator.

[@constancegarner3125]

LOVING THE WEEKLY VLOGS! This is what we wanted all along!!! 🥰😍😍🫶🏾

[@aabblluummee]

You should make a space in your closet for ‘going out’ outfits, like things for trips or big girl outings

[@LindaFennell-nz7el]

Raven. Do YOU. Don't care about all of the people judging you. You are such an amazing person. Blessings Queen ❤

[@gardening4zone970]

I’m loving the vlogs Raven continue posting on insta and tic tok you’re doing great❤

[@stacegirl95]

Yes we love the 1hr long vlogs keep doing them please and thank you

[@sandyb296]

Zooooeeeee!!! It was so great seeing your sweet face!! We miss you!!!

[@Overthinker918]

Raven be kind to yourself! You are an amazing human

[@danii3734]

Feels nostalgic tbh Raven, thank you for the weekly vlogs & consistency! Always looking forward to Sunday’s upload 👋🏾✨

[@staciii]

2:31 I never had a tiktok 😂 I need to keep my sanity

[@user-gj9ei1rw8b]

Raven you are AWESOME!! Live your life to please you. Don’t stress over what others think. You don’t have to explain anything to anyone. Keep being you!!

[@doseofroxanneyt]

I’m sat. My Sunday isn’t complete without your videos

[@cornelia915]

Amen to not having time! I enjoy you doing the content you do so well and I can tell you love doing it. In my book, that's what counts!

[@SociallyBrii]

The cut to you sitting under the dryer made me crackle 😂 I was not expecting that

[@Jadanc]

Raven is an OG fashion girlie! They better stop playing w/ you lol

[@anixa00ify]

Don’t be so hard on yourself. You’re not a MOM who gave up on yourself you are just using your time wisely on the things that bring you JOY. ❤

[@groundingmycrown8291]

Happy Sunday besties! 🎉🎉🎉

[@GummyCandy4Life]

Loving the weekly vlogs and you just being you! Thank you!

[@tangiesingsssss]

Weekly vlogs are nostalgic for me . Virgo to Virgo. From college days , to us both being preggo at the same time , to me watching you guys from my newly constructed home . We homegirls as far as I’m concerned! I’m loving the steady growth .. #KeepUpTheGoodWork❤

[@mariahjames7130]

Happy Sunday 🤍🤍🤍

[@okitsdae]

Loving the weekly vlogs! 🙌🏽

[@failapierre-louis8395]

The thing with tiktok is that once you actually start following people, their content doesn't pop up on the fyp anymore. :( I never see your TikTok content

[@SociallyBrii]

Omg I thought it was just me! Now when I like someone’s content I interact but don’t follow cause I swear that’ll be the last time I see them

[@cydneystephen2814]

Exactly. I rarely see content on my FYP. It’s ppl I don’t follow. And Friends no better. I could follow 150 ppl and the same 5 show on my friends. I have to go to their page to see daily content/posts. Otherwise you’d think ppl are not posting 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@GummyCandy4Life]

Same. I follow hundreds on TT but TT only shows me around 50 - it’s so annoying!

[@jayare95666]

Yep, I have to activity go look for people I follow. My fyp hardly ever has people I follow.

[@shirleyfretty487]

Raven, I think you're very creative, keep doing you sweetheart!!!!!❤😊

[@Davis-carmencita]

Raven don't stress yourself out trying to worry about the judgemental people, you do the best you can do at what you're doing at that particular time

[@AngelAustin]

I'm feeling a little aggravated about people judging you about your style and clothes and time...who was it? Do I need to comb through comments? I just need to see something. I'm here in Austin and I've been watching your channel for quite some time. I enjoy it so much and I SEE YOU. For what it's worth, I'm definitely rooting for you AND I understand your frustration.

[@EvetteUniqueRobinson]

We like it!! More relaxed and chill…I’m here for it!

[@oohlalaa2390]

25:22 ravens looks for her parties are always 100% top to bottom, in terms of theme, style, hair, makeup, colour scheme. Talk about cohesion and coordination. Flawless. Even her vacation fits. So yeah, when it is time for her to show up and show out, she has never missed. If you're popping out quickly for a lil event or gig on the side, we're not gonna hold you to it, take it easy.

[@krystald18]

Hi Raven, I look forward to your weekly videos every Sunday. Thank you! 😊

[@Elithebotman]

I love your growth. Real mom life you still look amazing 25:17 I love this Raven a little bit of everything.

[@euniceappling7912]

I love them, please keep them coming❤

[@Sipossably]

Raven, you’re doing such a great job at all the many things you do! Your style has evolved & changed over the years & that’s fine, it comes with the nature! You’re always on go, so no, you don’t have the have the perfect outfit for every occasion! There is always room for improvement & it’s great that you are always opening that door for it, but don’t stress yourself out with other people’s opinion! Actually, over the years I’ve taken fashion tips from you!!! 🥰 Happy Sunday 🩷

[@chughes611]

Enjoying the weekly vlogs! The declutter of the garage, storage units, Ziya’s would be good after your Halloween content or after your Christmas content. Either way we are watching!

[@LiyahJones55558]

we’re liking the weekly vlogs please continue them raven 🙂🙂🤍🤍

[@shay1376]

I'm loving and have always loved you videos. 😊

[@BittyIttyMe]

Raven idc what anybody says I thought the outfits for culturecon were cute, relatable, and accessible. Honestly it was refreshing to see an outfit that I can wear in my day to day life. You’re still very fashionable! Don’t be discouraged!

[@TanyaWazHea]

Loving the weekly blogs! Currently taking down these box braids and this video popped up right on time! ☺️

[@lolodtv1443]

Loveee this content. Perfect for my Sunday routine!!

[@brendamf91]

[@skiniminonochie]

That was the best party content ever….can’t stop smiling at how much fun you all seem to be having. Love you and Sadie together she is the wild to your tamed. Going to copy putting money in diapers because babies are expensive blessings

[@MyBeautyisaDorable]

WE 🎉 LOVE 🎉 WEEKLY 🎉 VLOGS!!!!!! love raven seeking balance and more chill and realistic

[@SimplyVatHome]

Whatever you do, I love it. ❤ Whether it's party prep, make-up, trips or just hanging out with Ziya, I dont have any complaints or suggestions because i feel like you are doing you and that's why I'm here!

[@ayeshabeag9495]

Love seeing your weekly vlogs. You and Ziya are both very beautiful. You are very talented and kind. I love how you blessed a mom by putting money in the box of pampers. 💕🥰

[@carlajones9372]

[@vivianmitchell3769]

[@pollys2142]

Absolutely love the weekly vlogs. Feels like we get to see so much more. I love it!!

[@shanetn.1381]

I absolutely ❤ your content and would love to see snippets of your BTS party planning tips from the book. Maybe even some of Chef Tony's tips on timing for the food? I never know how to keep everything warm or when to serve so it's fresh.

[@247samd]

Yes, you should do a part 5 loving it ❤

[@yolandaweni5740]

Love love the weekly vlogs ☺️🥰

[@Iamirealla]

[@ZoeyZoBaby]

[@serenitycuevas1986]

[@mckinnarivers945]

Love the weekly vlogs Look forward to Sunday vlogs

[@alexiainfiniti]

Hey Raven. I don’t go out a lot but sometimes I buy vacation or nice dinner clothes that way I have it when I do need it.

[@cydneystephen2814]

Hey Raven. Happy Sunday. Enjoying the weekly vlogs. Whenever you post I will watch. Love your party plannings, DIY’s then seeing the end results and parties.

[@mamabailey2.0x21]

I love the weekly vlogs, also I would like to see a “Our Big Adventure” feat Ziya series reboot this summer 😊

[@duskougrinoski5848]

i love love your weekly vlogs and i hope you keep doing weekly vlogs💞

[@seadragonpirate8195]

Im not on Instagram or TikTok so i can't really say anything about that. I only watch you on KZbin 😅 Sadie is a real one, she was in pain but she still attended with her kids!

[@cereneclark4376]

You’re amazing and naturally beautiful without all the extras ❤ just be yourself

[@84krist]

Love the weekly vlogs…. Old skool Raven🙌🏼

[@cassandrag8475]

I love the weekly vlogs ❤

[@ashleypottinger4817]

I love the weekly vlogs. This brings back what I wanted to see!! We see glimpse of you having fun with your friends. Then show your creative side as well through your diys. Than we see your Motherhood side with Ziya more too. It's like your showing glimpses of each area but not too much of one sided topic. This is good brings back the vlogs you used to do but in such a more updated way. I'm loving what Im seeing. That's my opinion 🎉🎉😊😊❤❤❤

[@Prettygirllly]

We love the weekly vlogs, keep them coming! 🎃🧡

[@thebeautyeditbyaja]

You’re doing the best you can! Your outfit was last minute and with that in mind it came out really cute!

[@anugigineishvili661]

I feel like there are cool ways to make styling part of your content, if you wanted - you could hire a stylist but limit them to looking through your closet and putting together 20 looks from what you have already. I would love to watch that! You don't need new stuff to look cool :)) But also comfort is the most important,i get it!

[@judyt.5702]

You do fine no judgements, One thing at a time. One thing❤

[@jaydacrenshaw2761]

Loving the vlogs! ❤🎉

[@MoiWonder]

Love the weekly vlogs- I'm an Instagram girlie, I don't even use TikTok, but I'm also an auntie in the realest form. 😌I don't get caught up in what's popping so much as I'm focused on what's quick and don't take up too much of my time but still informative and interesting. If that helps at all. Yes! on the fashion girl!!!! They don't know unless they really know.

[@JazyBlaze]

👏👏👏👏 from the momma that gets that blessing

[@jaebee10]

Loving the vlog style content!!! 🤗💕 Please keep them coming 🙏🏽

[@mixxedclipz]

I LOVED this vlog! Especially you explaining the ins and outs of full time content creating. As a fellow content creator, I feel you on not having enough time to do all the creative things in your mind lol

[@lolalovey6861]

loving the not so busy bee weekly vlogs!😂 & cackled when u mentioned ur voice bc not u said ittt lol this was fun 🎊

[@Cyr530]

For the leftover bags; make a stencil on your cricut that is large enough to paint over the mountains and elyse mountain or cover the area with glued on chalkboard vinyl and give the kids dollar store chalk

[@LavishLanda]

Sadie is me with the drink lmaooo I need it sweeet

[@leeannezoya]

The weekly vlogs are watchable because we just get to see more of your personality and how you jungle day to day life which it’s so nice to watch

[@manyrubies]

I think you might like a capsule wardrobe - quality basics that easily mix and match and never go out of style. I wore the same outfits in different colors and patterns every day for work and my coworkers complimented me ALL THE TIME. It didn’t register to them that I was wearing a uniform lol.

[@JacquelinePickett]

I'm a older follower of your channel, piece of advice stop being so hard on yourself, you changed if you didn't you wouldn't be growing. You get to an age where certain things don't matter or at least not so high on priority list that's what suppose to happen. Downsizing may hwp glad your growing. BE TRUE TO YOURSELF , you are appreciated

[@iriel4274]

Y'all making that drunk had me lol I would of just poured stuff lol 😅

[@Oodycoo1]

I prefer your vocal fry versus the super high pitch tone 🥲

[@RavenElyseTV]

I don’t prefer either extreme lol I wish I could speak in a nice middle tone

[@jaeskull1575]

I’m so early 🙌🏾🙌🏾 loving the weekly vlogs 💕

[@Missffwer19]

Ticktok 🎉

[@Les_lee]

Im going to watch however long the video is. Thoroughly enjoy each video

[@dovelyking3143]

In love with the weekly vlogs love it. Especially if it makes you feel more relaxed! Low key wanna see some travel content?!

[@leahdavis7494]

Raven posts, I click🥰 love your content 🫶🏽

[@michellehall4304]

Your doing a fantastic job ❤

[@grandmasfairycottage4031]

Yes hon do a part 5 just show the whole house again. I follow you on all your social media and I love everything you post I'm a DIY mom and grandma you give me so many Ideas...

[@Heyy_Sirii]

24:57 having classic basics in your closet would allow you to build your wardrobe for those events.

[@CarmRNBSN]

Love weekly vlogs! Your outfits were perfect! I don’t have IG anymore 😩

[@creativewah]

Raven I really love your content! You are incredibly talented and creative! Keep being you and doing what you love! Oh and when you blessed that mother by slipping that $20 surprise in the diaper box…🥹🙏🏽❤️ That was so thoughtful and kind! ❤❤❤

[@b.africa1348]

Liking it?!?! More like obsessed with it! Content 10/10💖

[@aliciam2292]

Human piñata 😂😂😂😂 love the weekly vlogs

[@Mimi-gj1fq]

Being a creative can be a lil extra cz you never know when to stop..th ideas jus keep coming & cant help but make it happen😂💕🧡🦇👻💀🎃

[@IHeartKeety]

Mielle is taking some people hair out… it’s all over TikTok 😭😭😭

[@MundiJae]

Your fit was so cute. Some people will be negative no matter what. You looked as good as anyone else I saw in the video. Continue being great?! 🎉

[@lunabirdlove]

I love that your halloween parties aren't massive. Kids will remember a smaller gathering and the moments during these vs an overstimulated, huge party. At least that's the case with me lol

[@athena3486]

😂 ziya was not interested in feeding bougie

[@DianteMarigny]

Halfway through, loving it so far! Just a tip from a broadcast professional cuz I know last week you asked for feedback on this: when you’re transitioning from one scene in your house to the next scene, it makes more sense to use b roll/still shots from your actual home leading into the next home scene. Does that make sense? So if you’re going from home to outside somewhere or give Versa that’s when the downtown b roll shots would work. For an at home transition, maybe a still shot of boujie, your living room, the kitchen, you have a really nice home so I think those transitional shots just make more sense to the mind. This is what we do for tv, the b roll has to make sense. (Also one clip in here was downtown Dallas lol) keep up the great work -longtime fan of yours 🫶🏽💕 Dianté aka Newsbaee

[@RavenElyseTV]

These are the exact instructions I’ve given my editors. But sometimes they make mistakes and I don’t catch it in the review process. I caught the Dallas skyline in one spot but I guess I missed the second one lol!

[@jayare95666]

Whatever the content is we are Team Raven all the way. ❤

[@drgreguh9389]

I LOVE THE VLOGS
