My grandmother had a sentence :don't do stuff alone that you won't do in public because you may forget yourself one day in public 😂 better have good habits even alone ❤️
Domi, very good advice
😂 sounds like my mom
I have the bad habit of eating in front of the tv as I leave alone
love this!!
I love that! Very wise lady 💖
I love how she’s becoming more comfortable. I really like her humour and style of comedy it’s funny yet has taste
Yes. It just flows right out hahahha
I was just going to write I love the way she talk and her humor peace and love from Paris France 💚
I noticed that too. During the quarentene she seems to be showing more of her personality, and being more relatable.
Me too!
Yes, I agree!! She is really funny!!!!😂😂😂
Me sitting on the bed watching her videos : " my dear elegant ladies ! " My Husband joining in : " That's us !"
Canae McCoy that’s so funny to me loll
😂😂😂
😂😂
awww, look how supportive he is ✨✨✨✨
😂😂
46 seconds into this video and Anna said the most important thing in the entire video. Perhaps the most important thing in every video she’s ever made: Etiquette in the home is about respect for ourselves! Thank you for putting this first, Anna.
💯💯
Anna: don’t watch tv when eating.
Me: eating while watching her video.
Nicky Ahgase eating and slouching too
youtube is not TV :D
ParisAntarktis exactly!
ParisAntarktis I have UA-cam on my tv and I’m always watching it on there, it’s so bad😭😭
And instead of eating on the dining table I’m eating on the sofa😭
It's ironic how much hate Ana gets for being anti woman empowerment when she's literally teaching women to upgrade their lives through the ways that worked for her....she genuinely has our best interests at heart
Exactly! Modern feminism-she still has her own successful brand, business, hobbies, and is very independent. She just wants a certain level for men. If a woman is improving herself, why can't men? She is not saying don't work, just date men who make your work optional.
@@Briae honestly she's just teaching women to be clever and pragmatic...in this man's world, women can't afford to be naive and idealistic
Yeah, you are right. I do not understand what is women empowerment anymore if the traditional things such as cleaning and cooking are excluded. I mean it should be upgrading women's life in general and those two examples are basic for survival. I always pity men who cannot do those two like how will they life longer if they cannot?
I don’t think she’s anti-women’s empowerment. What she’s doing it actually empowering women, we need to embrace choices.
Where do you get the "how much hate?" from ? Every time she posts a video she has hundredths thousands likes and a very VERY small fraction dislikes ???
Love how straight forward she is when sharing information. No 10 minutes of blurring around just to make video longer.
Luba Oravska YES!!
I agree
I think people just mindlessly babble. So annoying. This lovely lady is next level.
I like that she is confident enough in herself, that she doesn't spend half of the video begging viewers not to be offended by her content.
@@NC-tt4gc this is my favorite!!!!!!!
I’m 16 and I'm watching this to be a better elegant lady as an adult in the future. Thank you for the tips 💗
You are doing yourself a favour. 💖 It's so much easier to even pursue a better career if people see you as an elegant and put together person.
Just don't judge others from how elegant they are. People can be elegant and still be really mean!
I find it's more important to be nice kind and to stand up for yourself and others than to be elegant!
Oh my!
I'm 16 too.
Love from India👏💟
@@JaneDoe-ci3gj Amna Nadira can be both. She can bi elegant and also nice and kind. Go girl!
I'm 16 too and I feel like everyone is judging me and watching me when I eat that's why I want to work on myself. I want to feel confident
I like the idea of having etiquette even when no one is looking
Me too! It's definitely something I need to work on.
Same is said about integrity.
Yes! Great practice!
... Are you a vermillionaire?
Me too
Girls who drink straight from the bottle: She really came for us.😂
I felt so attacked 😂 for a person who drinks 2L of water per day, drinking from a glass it's not very practical
Anelly Claudino ☝🏽this.
Feeling so attacked that I actually got up to put my water in a crystal wine glass so I could practice holding it by the stem while drinking and feel like an elegant lady.
Imagine caring about that at all
😂😂😂
My mother (one of the most elegant women I know) would wake up, do her hair and makeup and put on a beautiful lounge wear set and clean the house. I asked her when I was little (after seeing friends’ moms who most decidedly did NOT dress for housework) why she did this. She told me that personal appearance and manners should be something you do for yourself, to feel good for your own self esteem. The side effect of that was that my brother and I got to learn refinement as a normal way of life and I have thanked her profusely over the years for her example! Ladies, your children watch you most when you are behind closed doors and you are doing them a tremendous service by being an example and making manners and elegance a way of life for them. My mother grew up very poor and although I never met my grandmother, my mom always said her motto was that she may not have the best of everything but everything she had would be the best she could possibly make it. My mother and father worked their way up from humble beginnings and I think those lessons that were ingrained in my mother (and my father as well) had a lot to do with that. We are not tremendously wealthy by any means, but I can walk into higher society and be very confident thanks to the care my parents took to instill those manners in me!
I want to ❤this so many times! Thank you for sharing.
My dad always says "a family that eats together stays together". And we aren't allowed to even have our mobiles/tablets with us or near us in the dining room. This is always a great time to catch up with each other and help the little ones learn table manners
You have an awesome Dad!!
Same with both my parents I always make sure to put my phone or laptop away, because we have always been told it's rude we also turn the tv off aswell.
@@sapphirefarrow2345 👍🏻 good job!
I grew up like that! I’m a flight attendant and don’t even eat room service in my bed… I tried but it felt so wrong😁
my father says the same thing, except we're not allowed to speak at the dinner table so we don't exactly catch up either
I really like her - she is in a league of her own. Her thoughts can be debatable, but she always delivers well and she is overall very right (in my opinion :) ) I love all her new videos!
Carola 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 She is definitely in a league of her own!
Yes, even if I disagree with some of her ideas I respect how classy and well-spoken she is.
Carola She doesn’t deliver well though, and actually seems extremely pretentious
@@genevieve5869 "Don't use toilet paper outside of the bathroom" like wtf it's not "classless" just because you say it is.
@@bkkersey93 it's classless to her. If you like it, that's on you 🤷🏾♀️
Elegance is telling the universe that i am worth the effort...i finally get this. Thank you so, so much Anna.
Madame Bubbles, your name reminds me of a specific part of the video lol
i love this quote so much💕💕💕 might write it on my mirror❤
Goodness, I've never thought of it this way!
Yes..I get zero respect from my grown children..and I know it has to start with me. Being elegant is a way of respecting myself
Wow, thank you so much for putting it that way. Something just clicked in my brain
One great decluttering tip: Every time you buy something new, get rid one one old item. I periodically just give stuff away to women’s shelters and charities. Mari Kondo’s methods are also very good on how to organize and declutter.
This method really works! Because it is not the most easy thing to throw everything away at once..
Ah that's great! Once I wanted to downsize my closet and made the rule that I can only buy 1 new item if I give away 2 😊
Yeees, also for clothes - if you hadnt wore it for over a year, or you wore it over 100 times - get rid of it! Im a student and I had to move my stuff out of my student appartment to my hometown, and everything that couldnt fit in the car I threw away and I dont feel bad about it! Also I gave most of my clothes to poor children in my (ex) neighborhood
I'm 15 and I'm watching your videos to become a elegant lady most fast as possible. You encourage me to be a better person every day, and I'm feeling so good discovering my feminine energy. Thanks💖
I wish I could go back to your age and change many things. It's great that you're learning from very young.
People be bashing Anna thinking that she's 'anti-feminist' or pushing women backwards. But in reality, the Royals, high society and even among celebs these etiquettes are the foundation.
They're brought up with etiquettes and she's just TEACHING us.
potutu potutu celebs are trash. They just happen to be rich
That is an interesting insight.
Ananda D'Aquino Such a great movie!
They dont tell you you cant love a man with no money "Annna said she couldnt"
And no money to her is less than 50 million by the way
@@YasmineAsaadd 😂😂😂...
She is right, you don't need to be a full blown millionaire to do elegant things. I don't have much money to spend on buying flowers every week BUT I grow my own flowers and I make sure to trim and keep them neat looking, not empress others but to make myself feel accomplished and happy.
It's not always about money or acting like you better then someone, it's about how you respect yourself and know your worth and expressing that through your actions. That's what I learn from watching Ana.
Exactly!! Elegance and class isn’t about having money. Growing up my family didn’t have a lot of money but my mom always taught to the importance of having good etiquette and looking presentable even without designer clothes. She really taught me how to find quality clothes in non designer stores.
Trust me, you can have money and still be ghetto.
I agree!!
perfectly said ❤
@P M I love peonies too, but the scent of gardenias is my absolute favorite.
It is hard to be elegant if you are surrounded by not elegant people 24 hours.
Yes it is
But if make it through that period, you're going to be undefeated and ammune to all bulshit
You just spoke exactly what's on my mind. I try, however, to do my part by being as elegant as I can even if it's a bit challenging when you're surrounded by people who don't appreciate elegance.
@De Nox D'blong So true
This is true! I do give a high effort to stay elegant among people who can't even understand the meaning of the word elegance.
@@EleftheriaMeansLiberty so true
My class mates and people at work usually are not the nicest, they make mean jokes think it's funny to ridicule and make fun of someone's looks and like to gossip and talk for hours about people's business which are things i don't like but i would kind of go along with just so that i wouldn't become the new joke and the so called ' justice worrier ' but I'm currently finding new friends that are more like the new me
I use to get joy in being manly thinking it was feminism. Now at 26 I want to become the elegant woman society tells me I shouldn’t be. Thank you Anna, some day I hope to be as elegant as you!
I love your comment, I feel like the feminine and elegent lifestyle really triggers people nowadays. They call us conservative, conventional etc.
@@julia_btfl - correct, those people are just ignorant, and they sold out.
Outstanding!
Oh, it's the same for me!!
That's lilterally me too
I love Anna...she's teaching class, femininity, and sophistication which is a dying art now days.
Canela it is...! And when somebody is seen doing it, they are condemned for it.. words like “being uptight” or “being pretentious” would be used to judged.. such a sad thing,.. really..
Yes but it’s just all based on superficiality, not fulfilling. Ironically, men (who is her main motivation) are adverse to women who are so superficial. The ones who aren’t, probably don’t have your best interest long term.
@@lw4294 What do you mean by adverse?
@@lw4294 Not ''men'' , but high quality men. You can be superficial by swearing, looking tuff and acting stupid. Be yourself in a better way, like improve yourself, nothing wrong with that.
This is the first time I’ve ever seen one of her videos on this channel- I liked it, but don’t these ‘tips’ seem like common sense?
Like I do everything she mentioned.
The jewelry brand Mejuri advocates that their items should be the first thing on when you leave the house and the first thing to be removed once you arrive home.
I WANT to wear lovely, little pieces when I’m home alone.
I enjoyed this video and am looking forward to seeing more of her content.
Love & Light from Miami ✨✌🏼
Stay safe everyone!
She’s so unintentionally funny
@@ImkeBeekhuijzen And yet you're still here 😉
@@ImkeBeekhuijzen So you have nothing better to do with your time than watching videos that you don't like all day and spreading hate? Okay.
@@ImkeBeekhuijzen Same, i watch her for amusement
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love it!
“Elegance is being your best self even when you’re all by yourself!” It’s so true, I’m trying to keep that at the the forefront of my mind these days. Eating/drinking out of packages is my pet peeve! Even when we get fast food, I insist on plating it properly and using real cutlery, glassware and cloth napkins. We usually play classical music as well. I really need to work on sitting more like a lady and less like slob. Thank you Anna!
I do the same. It really helps to control portions as well
same, i hate eating out of packages, it looks so trashy
Hello Anna, I was raised in a Strick upper boarding school in Germany, all the thinks to recommend about educates at home and when eating out in an elegant restaurant was thought to us girls; most all of us girls came from a high-class family background. It is refreshing to listen to you and enjoy that You teach this to others . Thanks for getting people interested in elegant -upper living.
Anna: “You wanna drink like a man, like a slob?”
Me:😔
Truth To Tell Personally I do not believe Ana meant men were slobs. Most men I know are far from slobs. Certainly that was a run on...
I would rather be a man or be manly then ever become like Anna.
Lol
THAT'S LITERALLY EXACTLY THE FACE I MADE
@@shireenesherry2872 was that really necessary to say? sheesh
Your house looks so immaculate, would love to maybe a house/room tour as I love your style
Remember not to shout 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
IS that her house 😱😍😍😍
I would love a studio / home tour too!
Although you may be “controversial” to people, which I can’t quite figure out why, I really want to thank you. I love my mother dearly, but when I was growing up she was going through her own issues with relationships and her career, and she didn’t take much time to teach me these essential lessons. I don’t use these videos to level up a man, I’ve already found one that I will spend my life with. We aren’t the elite class, but I know that learning to be more elegant will benefit my relationship and my life.
Katie Z same. I really appreciate when other women teach from heart. Is not for everyone but a lot of women love to learn what she teaches and I find it extremely useful.
Same
I am 21 and a college student
And not planning on getting a man any time soon
But still want to be elegant for myself
Same here😍
Indeed. I'm a feminist and I love her videos, I mean, some stuff/phrases may not rub me up in a good way, but overall I enjoy her advices very much, even if I don't intend to put any man above my career. And although we face many problems as women, I'm always glad to be able to express my feminity, it shouldn't a dying strengh.
I think it’s good to add that it’s not elegant to use swear words. So many people around me use profanity and it’s not elegant or classy. It lowers someone’s status in my eyes. Please, Ana, make a video about this!
Or you can make it yourself 😊❤
I so agree. It is totally unclassy.
Trying to get people i know to see the value in not swearing has been unsuccessful. So in my circle everyone has been told not to use swear words when around me 😊
💯💯💯
I love how you drag me for my actions without ever making me feel like you're judging me as a person. I really appreciate all the work you do and how you continue to speak up about the things you care deeply about despite it feeling uncomfortable or the backlash you get for it 💕
These days it’s a crime to be ladylike and the “stereotypical” woman. Some of us still want to be feminine and still can be empowered . That’s probably why Anna is getting hate aswell.
Demy I agreed! true feminism is embracing the choice to be any kind of woman you want to be, whether it’s traditional or not ❤️
I feel like we need to bring these things back
@Xx Xx I respectfully disagree with you. A lot of mothers nowadays don't teach their daughters any of this stuff. Of course she's going to promote her masterclasses because this is her living and this is what she's trained in, to teach. I find her not pushy at all when she promotes them, not like some youtubers. What is this red flag you are concerned about? She doesn't hide the fact that she's promoting her classes and why should she? I find her you tube video's very helpful.
@Xx Xx
Both my parents do about everything in this video and I just follow them. There's no need to generalize. Nowadays, children don't learn elegance etiquette (except for the basics i.e burping in public) and wonderful people like Anna provide these types of videos for free to people who want to live this way.
And you, a person who uses such elementary terms ("idiot" and "crap"), probably need to watch more of her videos to be more affluent yourself.
Completely agree about girls not being taught this now.. I hear very well spoken young women swearing as their talking about something casually (they're not even angry!) They think they look good, or trendy must be insecurity or something. So I don't think parents teach these things to their kids anymore its quite evident when you're out and about. That's why people like Anna are a voice for reminding us of these things, despite enrolling in her classes or not that's besides the point.
“Screaming like a beaten pig just because you are having intimacy” 😂 Love you Dear Anna!
No animal abuse, please 🐖
@@katherineklevenow1808 True👏🏻👏🏻
😂🤣
I think one is stupid lol your bed is the one place you can do anything! That’s what’s it’s for to scream and enjoy intimacy, your husband wants a lady in the street and a freak in the bed lol if I was quiet during sex I would offend my husband lol 😂
@@annabelenko1611 thats why we spend money on soundproofing??
"You can still have a good time without having everybody listen to it"
Yup ❤️
Sounds like jealousy, matches her overall vibe lol
Her: "Try not to sit like a total slob"
Me: *laughs in quarantine*
I did too!!! 😂😂
She is really judgmental of the working or lower class isn't she shows her narcissitic attributes.
Haha...laughed my lungs out
* cry in slob *
Me: Lying in bed with my computer, huge waterbottle, toilet paper, snacks and Netflix,
Those are just manners, not only for “ladies”, men should do it too
Careful, don't make men too effeminate. Let's keep them manly.
Pink Lady yikes
@@pinklady7184 sis. A man who know manners can be manly too.
Pink Lady it’s an insult to men that you equate manliness with sloppiness and a lack of basic manners 😬
Dillon Michaels rip
I wish she could convince the whole world to not shout from one room to another. Seriously. ♥️👌
What about people that whistle for others like dogs? Cringe.
I wish my gypsy neighbours would stop doing this
...Sensitive ears 😣
I shout from one room to another she has no clue what it's like to be a mother, until she is a parent she needs to stop being judgmental and so spoilt. I come from a 3rd world country and i grew up appreciating the little things and not worrying about how i will be percieved. People don't love you for your etiquette people love you for just being you and if they don't accept you for who you are even if that means drink water out of a bottle slouching on the couch, no etiquette whats so ever then they just aren't real friends. And if people have time to have etiquette values then great but 1) don't shon people who don't and 2) man you are missing out on just being a free spirit.
@@whaleofathyme ikr, mine are too lol. And it's just rude to assume everyone wants to be yelled at /to
When I took up knitting, all the ladies in the meetup were well to do. I was so ashamed of my lack of etiquette when I was around them and had no idea how to learn it. I am so glad that I found this channel. I may never bump elbows with the well to do again but at least now I am aware of myself and have an idea of how to behave. I'm still an ox in a china store for the most part but I am a work in progress.
This reminds me of my grandmother, even at home she was always dressed elegantly, made sure everything is at its place and there were always beautiful cut flowers displayed in most of the rooms.
LackaDaisy ❤️ this same with my grandmother
lol then she is just like me😂
I wish I was like that
In my family we’ve had a strict rule about shouting in the house but my husband apparently was not raised that way, what I do is not pay attention until he comes find me and stops calling my name!
I like that she talks even about the "awkward" things; It really helps a tone to improve the quality of our home routine at any level.
I'm so glad ettiquette still exists in this day and age! Thank you x
As an overworked nurse this is pure comedy to me! 😂
😅😅😅
thank you for your service QUEEN.
Sincere thanks for everything you’re doing for humanity during this pandemic.
Bintu Adam Literally millions of lives are being saved right now by overworked nurses. We’re in a life threatening pandemic. If nurses refused to be overworked, COVID-19 death rates would easily double.
Sorry but my mother have been an overworked SURGEON for 30 years, staying sometimes 48h at hospital... and I NEVER saw her doing any of those horrors at home.
All of those elegant things actions & tips carry a higher vibration than whatever we're doing when we're not being mindful of elegance
Well said!
A higher vibration? What do you mean
@@personincognito3989 sure I'll elaborate everything u do on this planet everything u say every person u interact with those movements & activities are quantified & measured by energy vibration & frequency for example if ur home is messy & chaotic (like mine lol but I'm working on it) that type of space is going to cause u to function in low energy & vibration you'll probably feel depressed lethargic etc...but a clean refreshed beautiful space with say for example fresh flowers in it is going to give u clear thinking & inspire u to be greater if that makes sense
@@personincognito3989 "vibe" would be another way to say it.
What you pointed in the video is not just about being affluent, this is literally basic culture and civilized behaviour. Thanks Ana.
Yes, and not only for women but also important for men!
Exactly!
“Everyday elegant”. That’s great. It’s about developing good habits.
slouched over, unkempt, and stuffing my face: "Now THIS LADY knows what she's TALKIN ABOUT!"
me too hahaha
🤣🤣🤣
OMGGG YES😂😂😂
Me watching this slouched over and unkept:
👁👄👁
Seriously! I’m in my pajamas, on my bed, eating popcorn. 😂. I can safely say that I have a lot of work to do.
Hey Anna, can you teach us how to decorate our home or space in an elegant style. So it won't look tacky.
Get rid of labels from all the products, if possible use things that can be refilled like soap dispenser for dishwashing. All those words make a home look cluttered, specially decorations with
words. “Love laugh live” for example. I’m sure she has great recommendations too though!
Yes!!
I've never got do many likes😮 it's like a dream come true.
Yes! I was going to ask her the same thing. Great idea Annie
My rule of thumb is "Use items that are timeless". It's easy to get carried away by the current trends that come up every day. With time they become outdated, and they tend to fall apart if they weren't constructed properly.
You don't have to get extremely expensive antiques if you can't. But think it through and see if whatever you're buying will carry you through the seasons, and if it will still be appropriate when you're older
I read a book years ago and I never forgot this phrase: Don't Yell, Go Tell. 😊
Carrie Lynn oh I like this one because I have a bad habit of calling my partner when he is in a different room
@@snethembamavuso1311
I really like that! I'm tying to teach my toddler manners and this will really help 🙂

What's the name of the book, please? I'd love to read it too.
“Screaming like a beaten pig.” Oh. My. God. I lost it! 😂
I like how she gets straight to the point, especially since what she has to say is so valuable. I have a lot of changes to make, but I can easily see how these changes could drastically affect my life.
I want to cry because i was never taught these things. I really feel i missed out on how to respect myself in everyday life in these little ways. Thank you so much Anna, for this video please make more videos like these. Really want to learn more practical everyday life ways to love and respect myself more. You won't believe it but many children are never taught these things.
Don’t drink from a bottle
Me: *looks at 8 open bottles in my room”
😂😂😂😂
Lmao
She s talking bout big bottles that the whole family uses but funny joke tho
guess what? dont have to wash any damn cups! :)
I was thinking the same i drink from bottled water all day 🤷🏽♀️ but if she meant big water bottles then I guess I feel better 🤣
I'm drinking from a wine bottle throughout this entire video. I'll start being elegant tomorrow😏
Lol
😂 😂 😂
I watched this video while I accidentally passed wind . I feel so bad now 😂💋.
Lol
I hope you're elegant now after a year.
"All about self-respect"... so spot on, Anna! Love the video.
I didn't think my husband would be interested on this channel, but as I'm watching this on the TV, he put the volume up so he could hear it too.
Instead of buying cut flowers weekly, having actual living plants is far more beneficial. If you like flower types, get orchids or peace lily. There are researched mental health and physical well-being benefits of keeping living plants around the house.
What are the benefits. I would like to know

This is something I loved about a book called "A Gentleman in Moscow", he was such a refined elegant man. It inspired me to refine myself.
Anna: "don't scream to other people from another room"

@emanuelle do nascimento sim.
Anna: “Don’t scream from one room to another.”

Laughs in Nigerian..... Haq haq
I could listen to this lady ALL DAY. “Do you want to drink like a man?” Omg I love her
Can you please make a video about hands...Nails(polish color, length, nail shape), types of rings/jewelry on fingers/thumbs and where to place our hands when we sit or stand up? A big thanks for all your help!
She made one recently, please check it out on her page
She has already made a video about that.
she does have one.
I love how Anna always encourages us to respect and love ourselves in this channel.
Anne: "Number 3: Eating in front of the TV."
Me: *eating ice cream* "...oh..."
I was eating cereal the moment I was watching this video, haha.
Donna Melena lol.
She caught me in #7; I was slouching 😂😂
Lol I eat in front of a tv every and drink water from water bottle....
What about snacking in front of tv like popcorn
I don’t care what anyone says about you. I’m in love with you. Listening to you and trying to upgrade this life style cultivates unconditional self worth and self love which is the essence of living a good stable life mentally, physically, emotional and spiritually.
I think this is so important because you can't pretend you are elegant, you have to BE elegant. If you behave different at home, at some point, you will lose your manners outside... People see more than what we let them see!!
I am 22 now and Anna's videos are just precious beyond compare. All of this is helping me to become a lady and an elegant lady at that. So appreciative of her videos and help .
I’ve always thought fake plants were tacky, but my family can’t have real flowers in the house. Allergies start to act up when there’s just a vase of roses for Valentine’s Day. Lol
Amanda K not sure how severe you and your family’s allergies are, but for me, succulents and other types of greenery that are non-flowering give a similar effect without the need for Benadryl, hope this helps! 😉
tbh you can get away with fake plants as long as they are a high quality imitation. Fake plants exist on a spectrum despite having a generally bad rep
I have never heard about the toilet paper 😂, never even crossed my mind to used it elsewhere other than the washroom lol
I was thinking the same thing. I'm not very elegant but I don't know anyone that actually useses toliet paper as a napkin and a paper towel. I feel good I'm at least doing one elegant thing well without even knowing it 😏
I'm guilty hahahaha I always have a toilet paper next to my bed, and use it as kleenex because sometimes you don't need a full kleenex :( hahah
Sometimes when I can't be bothered to go downstairs to get a tissue I just quickly go to the bathroom and grab some toilet paper
Me too
Guilty.🤗🤗
I have just fallen in LOVE with this channel. Finally! A modern femininity channel without strict rules and weird rituals. Yesssss 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Let me get my notebook 📓 🤓
Me too. I'm watching this, Liza Hart and bridgerton at the same time 😂... Femininity is beautiful tbh
Me too , I’m obsessed!! She’s amazing 😍Thank you & Love you Anna 💕

I love Anna’s “newfound sense of humor!” Been watching Anna for awhile now, and I love this side of her! So relatable! The real Anna, so enduring! ❤️
I absolutely agree! Even though we are at home, we MUST take care of ourselves.
“Screaming like a beaten pig.” Laughed for what seemed like an hour 🤣🤣🤣 I was not expecting this line in your video.
Screaming like a beaten pig ........ very funny and right to the point LOL
I died laughing, softly of course! Hehehe
Hazar Younis I totally disagree.
Tessa Ward Wonderful 👍🏻
Yes, Anna is quite funny. I love seeing her demonstrate a relatable personality from an elegant perspective.
You are absolutely precious! My southern mother taught me these 10 but certainly without the delightful delivery! I have giggled (quietly and elegantly) into a regal mood. Please have a fantastic day (all who pass by this comment).
Her: buy real flowers
Me: cries in hay fever
There are actually certain flowers and alot of plants that are allergy friendly, just ask your local florist or google for information. ;)
My cats eat them.
@@joyceanderson1069 My cat does, too. As well as dragging stems out of the vase and depositing them around the house. After tipping over the vase. I can't use real candles for this reason, either.
Get a cactus that blossoms? Or just normal succulents
Greens! Collect some various cuttings of leaves from the florist or your yard. Place them someplace the cat can't reach. (BTW, lilies are poisonous to cats, know that cats and lilies don't mix. You'll have an expensive vet bill at best, at worst you'll be planning a cat funeral.)
Love it when she calls her viewers ‘my elegant ladies’ 😂❤️
Anna: "don't eat in front of the TV, sit down and eat properly"
Me: *cries in Italian*
I watched this video 5 months ago when it was first published, and it has resonated soooo well. I did everything you listed either 80%-100% of the time elegantly, except for one - talking to/yelling at others in different rooms.
Since watching this video several months ago, I have completely stopped yelling to someone in a different room or part of the house or property or office and have instead walked over to that person to speak whatever I was going to say in person. I had even forgotten where I had learned to do it. And I honestly have been wondering where I did learn of from for a while now. Silly me, of course Anna taught me! In any case, it has completely evolved my habits for the better! :) Thank you kindly, Anna
I drink more water when it's coming straight from a bottle
Lauren Zulu I think if it’s YOUR water bottle and no one else will be pouring water from it, so what? I don’t get it.
@@yanetcurtis5568 thank you me too. Just making plates dirty. I live alone and I barely get visitors why pour water in a cup.
@@laurenzulu2060 right especially if it's an individually packaged water bottle like i'm the only one drinking out of it, it's so pointless to pour it into a glass when an individual water bottle and a glass cup serve the same purpose when drinking water
@@darien3111 ikr. it only makes sense if you are sharing the bottle.
Darien Kim I think your missing the point. It's not about the practical but the emotional. It makes you feel more elegant drinking from a glass. Think about it... If you had lipstick on and at a meal would you drink from a water bottle and still feel elegant?
I can’t take her seriously when she calls farts “bubbles” hahahaha
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂wish farts would smell soap bubles
I laughed when she said don't fart in front of your partner. My husband watched me give birth twice. I think we are waaaay beyond the no farting rule. 😂
@@silencedogood9747 this is a rule for trophy wives whose main job is to be attractive and "elegant", not real world wives. She probably would tell you not to tend to your terminally ill husband in the hospital because it's not elegant.
@@ShaferHart lol I know right? Sooner or later though, trophy wives have to be "real people" in some way, shape or form. You can't be with someone any length of time and not be.
MNGMakeup As going to the latrine (toilet) or the powder room. One is an inelegant choice of words and the other is appropriate
The wealthy French dont even have couches. Straight back chairs are in their living room. And they eat what we call formally (at a table with no distractions) every meal. These used to be common in all levels of society in the US, as well.
true, as a French I am really disturbed when I go to someone's place with no dinning table, even alone I would never eat in the kitchen or anywhere else than at the table, no TV, no phone, nothing else than my meal and a wonderful wine :)
Not only the wealthy. It's like that in pretty much every household.
The French are sticklers for elegant behavior. Real clothes and makeup are required to be worn inside your home in case someone drops by, and sneakers don't count as real shoes either. They have it together in all aspects of elegance
I'm not wealthy but I'm french and studied in the USA and I remember that it shocked me that we had no dining table in our apartment. I had to eat on the bar or on my desk in my bedroom because it was either that, or the couch and I would NEVER eat on the couch unless I'm having a little relaxed party with my friends in front of the TV.
We had one upholstered seat in the living room. We were not allowed to eat anywhere other than the table with the entire family.
I love the fact that you practice what you preach. I've been noticing the way you sit, it's just ladyish. I mean truly elegant.💞
I can't find a single flaw in what Anna just said...all of these habits are important manners that we all should build up..treat everyone especially yourself with respect ladies.
I died when she said screaming like a beaten pig.
Me too
Me too
Omg! I had to come to the comments to see if anyone mentioned this 🤣🤣🤣
That blouse is everything.. I don’t care if I’m breaking any etiquette rules, will you please share who it is by and where you got it? Thx!!
@@evasanz3466 I thought the same once I saw it too!
It’s from Hawes & Curtis
You look stunning today Anna.
HotSauceLeadFree True, I got one as well.
I have same one from Lilis silk
I love how you just tell it like it is and your sense of humor!😂💕💕💕
My partner is from old money, and I’m very fortunate that he’s generous and buys me very nice flowers. I’ve some what turned into a flower snob! I agree flowers make me so happy😘
@belleshaw Does your partner happen to have a single brother?😅
Why is it an old money thing to buy flowers? Maybe for American men.
It's just normal for most European guys/men to buy you flowers rich or poor,new money or old money.
DakotaEden buying flowers is pretty normal in the us, I think she’s just saying she is thankful to get it often
We really need a video how girls in their 20's should dress up
I'm a 24 years old mom i do not know how to dress up
@heuheuheu hyuk hyuk yess her chanel is so helpful
Im 24 and a mom who can dresss but needs a bit more work....WE GOT THIS LADIES
MiekoNeko same
Yes!! This is exactly why I came across her chanel, I need someone to teach me how to dress now that I graduated college
“Screaming like a beaten pig”
This woman is spectacular.❤️
I was about to comment on that one too. What a hilarious way of putting it. Gosh, I wish I could be friends with Anna.
I died laughing. She is so funny!
Mei Yin she would be an amazing friend!!
😂😂😂😂😂
I love your videos. I'm 35 and I wish I've known these things before. But I'm glad to learn them now, better late than never. Being an average person in a working class doesn't mean we cannot be elegant. Self-respect is one of the classiest things no matter what socio-economic status we are in.
You are so elegant that even when you try to slouch on purpose you can't do it! Lol. Oh, and by the way, in my book, you are an angel. 😇
Haha “bubbles”...I totally agree with her point. Eating healthy though (no sugar, less carbs) takes away the bubble production; trust me!
"don't sit like a total slob"
*me sprawled on my bed*
My Mother and her sister attended _Finnishing School_ as young ladies. I was fortunate enough to benefit from her experience although I hated it at the time. 🌺
Which school did they attend?
Omg i didn’t even know that people would use toilet paper for anything else 🤦🏻♀️ this woman is teaching us all how to keep self respect and feel good even if we are by our own or with our husband/partner. PROBS to this beautiful woman
When coronavirus calms down, I'd love to see a video on airplane etiquette. I was a flight attendant for two years. I can't even believe what I witnessed. Horror of horrors. Men and women (mostly women) with bare feet dangling off the arm rests into the aisle. I had to pass through the aisles to attend to customers and say, "Excuse me....your feet please." The messes people made - especially families with children. Crackers and pretzel crumbs everywhere. A full row completely demolished with no effort to clean up, no apology, no responsibility, no self-awareness. How many times did I have to tell people to please use earphones because they were watching a movie or listening to music and disturbing others? And don't get me started on the lavatories. And trust me, the bad behavior was not just in economy. It was all over the plane. First class also had its nightmare customers. Thanks, Anna. Love watching your videos. Your humor is coming forth more recently and I LOVE it!!
I love this! When we train ourselves at home, we will act more elegant in public. It’s about home training!😊 These were really great tips 👌🏾
Thankful for the understanding and wisdom she shares on etiquette and elegance. My family didn’t have clear etiquette rules for me to follow growing up, so I’ve had to learn social behavior from peers around me. Those experiences weren’t filled with any self respect or value. So to finally have a reliable source such as herself explain proper content is so refreshing! Thank you very much Anna. 💐
Darlie Tour, we watch the same channel! I love and miss you, dear friend! Praying you and your loved ones are well and safe!
Remember that she comes from Europe!! Many of these norms are VERY run of the mill in Europe such as sitting down for meals, and in America it’s much less common! Even if you don’t agree with everything she says, some of it is because of her culture, and she’s not trying to micromanage your life, she’s just giving living suggestions that she likes to live by.
These are general rules of behaviour taught by all etiquette experts. I am also from Europe and I am really surprised that these do not seem to be followed in the USA.
@@nikamikano3512 back in the day it was more so such a thing but now it is not but I do agree it is more proper to sit at the table and eat.
USA is falling apart, we could use a comeback of the "elegant lady" and takes some notes!!! Yeah, few sit down meals because mom's so exhausted from working all day like dad, just microwave and have a TV dinner staring at a screen. Here, women wanna be masculine, provacative, easy, fast, many men don't want anything to do with women because they're so angry, "empowered", the family unit is literally dying, birthrates are falling so much... No one thinks Anna is micromanaging us LOL she's obviously giving advice... That American women desperately need IMO!!
I hate when people project 😂. Anna is not forcing you to do anything.
Well said Lily.
It's also not elegant to use the toilet in front of your partner. And no it's not a relationship milestone
Unicorn Soul There are some things that should remain a mystery.
Also . . . No, you may NOT use the toilet while I’m in the shower! 🤢
so true.
I can’t understand people who act like that
A.M. M. I totally agree with you! Seriously, that was so disrespectful. I like doing my personal hygiene in total peace and privacy. I think everyone deserves that. Any person who cannot understand something so simple can’t be taken as a mature, considerate human.
I was chatting with a guy some time ago... after some days of talks he decided that it was ok to send me an audio message of his bubbles... 😀 I deleted his number right after 😄
Good move LOL
OMG was it an accident or on purpose? I mean feeling comfortable with a person is one thing but...
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hai fatto bene!
Omg, you wrote "fart", and not "bubbles" 😱😱😱
You are not elegant enough!!!
😊
