“Go to a pub with your mates, go home with someone by accident and sleep with them. If that happens enough times in a row - you’ve got a boyfriend” THE SOUND I MADE
Wow. I've been dating the wrong kind of guys. Apparently all my needy, emotional behavior is perfect for a French relationship... Why hadn't someone told me this sooner??!
J W I have been living in the US and this behavior gets you categorized crazy psycho here whereas in France you’d just be cute. I need to go back there. 😂
Alexa is all of us with that "I still dressing like a 12 year old" Every time I find Alexa more down to earth and relatable. She's so funny and straightforward, think that's what I like the most about her
But I cannot with those white cotton panties, haha. I have never bought underwear in a pack and have been wearing beautiful lingerie since I was a teenager. Even if I am wearing the laziest thing on the outside, underneath, it's always pretty and lacy.
I learned that wearing lingerie everyday makes you feel amazing and when u meet a guy it's already a norm for you and so u alreay feel elegant and all that without even trying cause it comes naturally. I started doing that, sleeping in sexy clothes , trying not to own anything that's not hot on me and it actually is really therapeutic!
dior butterfly a lot of ppl seem to think those type of knickers are like granny panties so i guess its kind of like relieving knowing that she wears them as well and its not a big deal for her hahah
It'saliciaa nah they’re just standard knickers, granny panties are like really big almost like frilly shorts aren’t they? idk that’s what i imagine 😂 but yeah everyone just wears normal knickers like that i’m pretty sure
I would always buy "pretty panties" but I recently purchased a 5 pack of cottons and they're just so functional, minimalistic, and comfortable that it honestly might be my new go to
They cause infections specially during hot weather. Every Gynecologist recommends cotton underwear, so I rather look unsexy than have “it” smell like rotten fish and be in pain every time I pee.
As a French person, this is crazy to me. But I am also working class and not as posh as Josephine de la Beaume. Posh people be crazy across all nations.
She prefers to keep to that retro style dating I guess. Am not sure if it works now. We are already so stressed. The stress of an emotionally demanding partner might not something ppl will look for 😬
This true, original, unforced personality, this powerful charisma, this unique avant-garde: that's what makes this woman outstanding. She could easily belong to any era, any culture, she is that great.
so brilliant and absolutely on point! I confirm that french mums do get into your business around the age of 16 to make sure you are : 1/ taking birth control 2/ have an idea of what to do , very very awkward
An Italian man told me a woman who is not a bit crazy is not a woman. I think they understand femininity as expansive and emotional and they like it. Women have to be who they are.
This is an awesome little hangout interview. Chill, funny, and interesting. Also, from the look on Alexa's face, she's definitely going to use some of those tension tactics.
"Je prends mes cliques et mes claques et je me casse." - just brilliant! I will keep that one for the boring times in future relationships! *french relationships ofc
I don't know how many times I watched this video, I have not seen such interesting and fun conversation between two people for a long time. ❤️ Josephine must really be your close friend that she let you mimic her by pretending her English pronunciation. 😂 Generally whole video could easily be a mine of quotes and "LESSON 3" stole my heart - both of you were great to listen to and Josephine literally hypnotized you with her eyes, what a seducer! ❤️
Alexa is so relatable really like her personality. In my shopping cart I have a ten pack of cotton briefs and boyshorts 😂 and only three lace ones. I’m completely understand still dressing like twelve I have been trying to mature my wardrobe that’s why I’m watching these videos. Haha great video loved it 😊
means her family has lots of economic and social privileges - she probably comes from an old noble family and has been rich for decades/centuries (you can tell by her name, de la baume)
Alexa, I adore you! You always bring that something, artistic and unique, into your videos, which is really refreshing in this time of superficiality. Never change!
A few times over great grandmother... Probably la Marquise de Montespan, who gave Louis XIV 7 children, and whose daughters married legitimate junior members of the French royal family. His children with Louise de La Vallière didn’t have issue.
You're hilarious Alexa! I'm also a huge admirer of French style, esp. that of French women. I learned about French style when I went to Paris 35 years ago! Several French women helped me learn about skincare, food, lifestyle, exercise (walk, walk, walk, walk and walk some more). The only thing missing was lessons on amour! (I already had a boyfriend at the time). Anyway, now I'm 60, so it's time for a refresher! Toujour l'amour!
Josephine is spot on about men and their conversations, they always choose banal topics, versus emotions and feelings. Also, if the woman has some issue or problem with someone or something, men immediately start telling you how to fix it instead of listening and being supportive. Women Are From Venus, Men Are From Mars. S’true.
so obsessed with these kinds of videos !! would also love to see something similar to what british vogue used to do when they did 'what's in my wardrobe', miss that content !!
Just came across this while throwing up in middle of night caught a bug so came across Alexa and love this. Please keep going with this its fabulous. So down to earth
OMG Josephine.. 😻 off to listen to her band . You two are sooo kin and gorgeous together. I have no girl friends right now in a new city so this is comfy lol. Tooo funny. ... sidenote, can we believe there was a time before this perfect YT channel 😹💝 Tysm Alexa doll
Tre superb ;-) what a great start to my day. Informative, thought provoking, genuine and bloomin funny. Thank you both for being Franglaisingly great. Loved this. Keep it coming you have fabulous futures ahead. 💖
I wanna be friends with Alexa! And Josephine is the big sister everyone needs in their life EDIT: Alexa flashing her pants is everything and that fake argument 😂😂😂
Actually, the expression "avoir le vague à l'âme" = being deeply sad and melancholic without a clearly defined reason has nothing to do with waves="vagues"(feminine word). It comes from "le vague" (masculine word) far less used in modern French but has the same meaning as the English adjective "vague": which is a state of indecision, imprecision, undefined, blurry. I guess it's a common mistake among french people to think it's related to waves because it's very poetic, and you can also feel waves of sadness when you experience grief, for example.
Ha! The 'floor-drobe' is hilarious! I love how your brain works! And interestingly enough, I also have a floordrobe but in this Coronavirus madness, I aspire to get it together eventually. I'm so happy I found you and the ultimate pursuit of Franglais, I fell in love with Paris last summer and I'm already a massive Brit lover so I feel like I found my tribal leader!
Been watching some of these videos of Alexa Chung becoming "more French" and now have a lovely girl crush on Alexa Chung! ;) she is so cute ( and I mean a chic cool chill kind of genuine cute) One bit of unsolicited advice: Alexa, you simply must install different doors in your cottage so you can slam your doors rather than fiddle with the latch :) I love these videos! you're great. keep em' coming xo
What she says about her great(so on)-grandmother, might be true. "Louise-Françoise de La Baume le Blanc, duchess de La Vallière, (born Aug. 6, 1644, Tours, France-died June 6, 1710, Paris), was mistress of King Louis XIV (reigned 1643-1715) from 1661 to 1667."
These videos are great. I'm not a fashionable guy by any stretch of the meaning, but your videos are really entertaining to watch and are kinda getting me interested in fashion. well in the idea of it anyway.
Alexa is the frenchiest british woman ever since Jane Birkin.
"Sophisticated" British women seem to gravitate towards France, just look at Charlotte Rampling, Kristin Scott Thomas, etc.
Aww Alexa liked.
Rita M - Yeah because she’s (southern) English i doubt a Scottish or Welsh British woman would be as Frenchy tbh
I mean nothing truer than this statement
woah so many likes. but I’m still starstruck by alexa’s. 🥰
“Go to a pub with your mates, go home with someone by accident and sleep with them. If that happens enough times in a row - you’ve got a boyfriend” THE SOUND I MADE
True story!
That's exactly how it's done in Europe. The concept of "dating" like they do in The USA is unheard of.
@@beautifuldreamer3991 sounds more English to me
@@beautifuldreamer3991 europes quite a big place, doesnt apply to every country
Not quite the Belgian way. We become friends first and than someone makes a move ;)
Wow. I've been dating the wrong kind of guys. Apparently all my needy, emotional behavior is perfect for a French relationship... Why hadn't someone told me this sooner??!
J W I have been living in the US and this behavior gets you categorized crazy psycho here whereas in France you’d just be cute. I need to go back there. 😂
Of course! Many women will express their feelings, be jealous and drama queens. However the trend is towards patience and communication these days ☺️
I am a German when I talk but very much French at heart with lots of emotional needs, a beggar of emotions you might s ay 😬🤣🤣
LOOOOOOL SAME SAME
Ce type ne t’arrive pas à la cheville, crois moi!
alexa's french accent is the best.
Alexa is all of us with that "I still dressing like a 12 year old"
Every time I find Alexa more down to earth and relatable. She's so funny and straightforward, think that's what I like the most about her
But I cannot with those white cotton panties, haha. I have never bought underwear in a pack and have been wearing beautiful lingerie since I was a teenager. Even if I am wearing the laziest thing on the outside, underneath, it's always pretty and lacy.
Five pack knickers forever 😍😂
@IKEHH mine too and I'm 19
Yessss
These are not just any knickers, these are M&S knickers 😂
100%
I used to work at Victoria's Secret and I still buy 5 pack undies.
I feel like I need Josephine as a life coach.
The waves of the soul, implying the highs and lows you feel inside, revealing that deep stormy part within you.
thanks!
Thanks for the quality content queen
French: it looks like I haven't tried but actually I've tried a lot
British: genuinely haven't been arsed
@alex 9 oh so sadly true! I think i looked alright in my time, but when i tried it was a disaster. Either do it properly or not at all. Whatever it is
When she showed her underwear, I was happy that I was not alone. Love you, Alexa ❤
Normalize white panties (5 pack) woohoo 🎉 🙌🙌
I learned that wearing lingerie everyday makes you feel amazing and when u meet a guy it's already a norm for you and so u alreay feel elegant and all that without even trying cause it comes naturally.

Ahh periooddtt bo
dude ! mee too! :)
@@danf4447 ?
When are you making your closet tour?! We need thattt
You mean her floor
I choked when Alexa showed her school girl knickers because I wear them too! She is certified crazy. I love her.
Bruh.. such a relief!
She's a certified mindblower 😏
I love this. Thats all.
I just buy a five pack in black and hope it's a little more sophisticated.
haha saaaame
Oooooh not a bad idea tbh!! lol
Me too lol
literally me
Me too! And no stains during that time of the month. Lol
I love the way this host does the interviews and she is honest
i always felt insecure for wearing underwear like Alexa’s and i literally screamed the moment i saw that she wore it as well
Same
but they’re just normal knickers? i’m confused
dior butterfly a lot of ppl seem to think those type of knickers are like granny panties so i guess its kind of like relieving knowing that she wears them as well and its not a big deal for her hahah
It'saliciaa nah they’re just standard knickers, granny panties are like really big almost like frilly shorts aren’t they? idk that’s what i imagine 😂 but yeah everyone just wears normal knickers like that i’m pretty sure
It is granny style in present day.
I would always buy "pretty panties" but I recently purchased a 5 pack of cottons and they're just so functional, minimalistic, and comfortable that it honestly might be my new go to
I will never understand wearing lacy uncomfortable underwear everyday. 5 pack gals unite
Niamh C team 5 pack 🤘🏼
Niamh C exactly! Especially during hot weather. Gimme the cotton or seamless anyday over lace!
They cause infections specially during hot weather. Every Gynecologist recommends cotton underwear, so I rather look unsexy than have “it” smell like rotten fish and be in pain every time I pee.
Lol
6 pack here
As a French person, this is crazy to me. But I am also working class and not as posh as Josephine de la Beaume. Posh people be crazy across all nations.
Totally agree. This chick does not stand for French people. She stands for 0,000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of the French population!!!
Preach
I mean yeah!
I feel like they just get too bored. Trop ennuyeux qu'ils ne savent pas quoi faire de leur vie 😂
She prefers to keep to that retro style dating I guess. Am not sure if it works now. We are already so stressed. The stress of an emotionally demanding partner might not something ppl will look for 😬
Alexa's synopsis of British dating had me choking. If only it were that simple lol
This true, original, unforced personality, this powerful charisma, this unique avant-garde: that's what makes this woman outstanding. She could easily belong to any era, any culture, she is that great.
I couldn’t decide which i can fall in love more... the french way of living or alexa
so brilliant and absolutely on point! I confirm that french mums do get into your business around the age of 16 to make sure you are : 1/ taking birth control 2/ have an idea of what to do , very very awkward
I want an Italian series as well :D that would be fun
PLEASE CONTINUE THIS FRANGLAIS SERIES. It's amazing, really funny and so interesting
Alexa's Josephine impression was eerily spot on, not just the accent, but the voice. Creepy!
Yess I was like the sound exactly the same, would love to find a voice twin one day too
This girl is the least french looking french woman I’ve ever seen and alexa’s the most french looking british woman i’ve ever seen
Honestly, that blonde is not tres française,.
She reminds me of Julie Delpy
I like French girls like this the Jane Birkin copies are so boring
have you been to France?
i was thinking the same thing
Came to learn all about seduction, left with a mind to buy a 5 pack of small men’s boxers...Alexa really is an icon! 😂
Creating the drama bit was hilarious! I’m Serbian and that’s exactly how I sound, and my English husband is like Alexa, lol.
anna bell hahaha I’m Mexican and my husband just identifies as Caucasian. I was thinking the same thing about us 😂
An Italian man told me a woman who is not a bit crazy is not a woman. I think they understand femininity as expansive and emotional and they like it. Women have to be who they are.
@@Lafemmefutile How do you out-crazy an Italian Man? An Italian man is basically a crazy French woman with Mommy issues.
Visplight 😂😂😂😂
tina bambina 🇷🇸❤️
I ADORED this Franglais video No. 1😻Alexa is charming as always (and I want to join the Lonely Hearts Club) & I've become a fan of Josephine as well❣️
Alexa struggling to respond to the drama 😂😂
that was so cute lol
Your banter is so funny it's like watching sisters. The honesty is very refreshing.
“I’ve got a floordrobe, it’s when you put your clothes on the floor and hope for the best”
🔘I’m in this photo and I don’t like it
omg why always every episode is so funny? 😂 this channel makes my day
This is an awesome little hangout interview. Chill, funny, and interesting. Also, from the look on Alexa's face, she's definitely going to use some of those tension tactics.
I love how she says "Thank you Mum" every time she shows Alexa an item her mom bought for her.
"Je prends mes cliques et mes claques et je me casse." - just brilliant! I will keep that one for the boring times in future relationships! *french relationships ofc
What does that mean? I didn't really understand it
It just mean "don't take anything for granted" keep making efforts
Didn't expect to laugh that much 😂 also your French accent, incroyable!
as a french girl this video really made me laugh :,) JADORE! the " je prend mes cliques et mes claques et je me casse" moment was the best lol
This is the kind of video that I need in my Life. Bisous
Hahaha the drama! 😂 @Alexa I loved your French accent in English, impersonating a French speaking English, it sounded legit! 👏
I'm French and I EXCLUSIVELY wear cotton knickers that come in multi packs :) Also I hate drama haha
Pareil !
Figure she might not have become so dramatic if her mom had just let her wear pyjamas!
If you are as cool as Alexa marry me !
Same :)
Je suis comme toi
I don't know how many times I watched this video, I have not seen such interesting and fun conversation between two people for a long time. ❤️ Josephine must really be your close friend that she let you mimic her by pretending her English pronunciation. 😂 Generally whole video could easily be a mine of quotes and "LESSON 3" stole my heart - both of you were great to listen to and Josephine literally hypnotized you with her eyes, what a seducer! ❤️
Alexa have you thought of making a video with our fella Harry Styles? That’d be so cool
Oh please!
Lol
Thiss!
Mash Potato yasss that’s my man
Mash Potato YES PLEASE!!

I’m completely understand still dressing like twelve I have been trying to mature my wardrobe that’s why I’m watching these videos. Haha great video loved it 😊
I'm french and i had to Google her. She's not really the average french girl. She's very very privileged.
What does that mean??
means her family has lots of economic and social privileges - she probably comes from an old noble family and has been rich for decades/centuries (you can tell by her name, de la baume)
Honestly not surprised. All her examples of "French women" will be white rich Parisian women.
@@Anna-qg8sz whats does mean de la baume?
@@Anna-qg8sz and the gifts she recieves from her mother 😉
The drama bit at the end felt a like a Jean-Luc Godard film.
This is hilarious! I just adore the two of you!
Omg alexas French accent and her French tone is spot on. I just fell in love with her again!
This was reality fun to watch, thanks Alexa and Josephine! 💖
The best combination Alexa and France. I loved it
"I take my bits and bobs and I'm out" , guess i've been dating french all along and just not knowing it. Mind blown. Love her attitude.
i want more videos like this and with josephine. it was absolutely hilarious loved it!
Alexa, I adore you! You always bring that something, artistic and unique, into your videos, which is really refreshing in this time of superficiality. Never change!
Josephine is an absolute master of drama! Bows to the queen! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and spice up my relationship a little bit...
Very funny! :-) As a Portuguese leaving in the UK I could totally relate with Josephine...
“My great grandmother was the mistress of Louis XIV” 🧐🧐🧐 LOL
which one....
To be honest I was wondering how old she was and if that mathematically is possible.
Sirama that’s exactly the thing. Louis XIV died in 1715. It’s impossible. I mean if she and her fam are vampires probably but I strongly doubt that.
A few times over great grandmother... Probably la Marquise de Montespan, who gave Louis XIV 7 children, and whose daughters married legitimate junior members of the French royal family. His children with Louise de La Vallière didn’t have issue.
Funniest to believe it
Alexa has the best laugh omg
I absolutely love this style of videos, rather old-style Vogue! Keep them coming ❤️
The best episode as of yet! Love you both! xo
This was great!! Especially the "adding drama to the relationship" part 😂
Alexa's contents have always been so entertaining to watch 😭💞
I'm so happy to have witnessed this hilarious conversation....so fecking funny!!..
You're hilarious Alexa! I'm also a huge admirer of French style, esp. that of French women. I learned about French style when I went to Paris 35 years ago!

Falling in love with Alexa Chung even more every day she is just so funny!!!!
I got 6 in a pack and with different motives and color
Get a 7 pack Days of the Week panties.
This is so much fun! You are an extraordinarily engaging interviewer. I totally think you should go this route with your channel❣️
love the idea of Franglais series!! cant wait for more, love your humor alexa!
J’ai du vague à l’âme ... in case anyone was wondering :P
thank you! I came down here looking for that
So happy someone found it useful 😋
