For me, what stands out about this LADY is the quietness and grace of her voice and manner.
Gerri Stratton French woman are feminine and classy
agreed
MeiQui, GWA!!
A tip : you can watch series at Flixzone. I've been using it for watching loads of movies lately.
@Drake Brixton Definitely, I have been using Flixzone for since december myself :D
Classic is always stylish. I would rather buy one really special item than ten cheap trendy things. Great video.
No matter what country one lives in, women of taste do stay with the classics. Very nice video.
but the French do it better than anyone else!
What I have noticed about all these pieces is that they are timeless. Each one has been in fashion over the course of my life and they remain stylish and versatile. Beautiful choices.
that's the key, they're classics, stand the test of time :)
Bonjour Marie-Anne, Just came across your video. I am in my 60's and grew up in the 1960's in Sydney, Australia. I have tried explaining to my daughter the minimalist and timeless wardrobe we had back then. So beautiful and so fashionable. Nothing was mass-produced, mostly made in Australia or Europe by the fabulous designers both in Australia and Europe. I used to love Norma Tullo. Watching your video today has inspired me to return to that lovely way of dressing. My mother always taught me the beauty of a neckline, front or back, I still love the pencil skirt with a little detail (I haven't seen such a gorgeous ruffled one though but is a wonderful idea). Once again, thankyou. It's never too late to be inspired! Love and blessings
selenaj wallace do you like Blue Illusion’s clothes? I’m also in my 60s and a plus size but find they still cater for most of us.
33³
I'm also in my 60's and went to boarding school in Sydney! Never even went to DJ'S without gloves, court shoes and gloves! Never thongs😱. My daughter loves France chic style thankfully!💞💞
@@rubykeiss1540 No, younger people now can't believe how we "dressed up" to go shopping. But it wasn't about that. It was about presenting as clean, tidy and respectable when we went out in public. Because clothes did, and still do, as a first impression, represent much of who we are, it was so important to dress nicely. To be honest, I have a wardrobe full of nice clothes but I still have clothes which I call my "yucky olds" which are purely for big housecleaning days, messy gardening jobs and painting jobs. Life is much more casual today but that does not mean it is OK to dress shabbily.
Where did you go to school? I went to Wenona but I was a day-girl.🌱🙏🌱
@@selenajwallace294 So true. I went to PLC and Gough Whitlam's sister was my Head Mistress. Long story. Shame I'm in Qld. Nice of you to reply.🧡
That was by far one of the best French style videos I have ever seen. So often people do not go into the details so that the most important parts are skipped. Everyone knows by now that a stripped Breton t-shirt is a staple but so many do not know how to pick an excellent one rather than just an ordinary one.
So, basically a striped Breton shirt and flats. No sneakers!
Well I'm not sure why this popped up in my feed but I'm a (straight) man who likes clothes and women and I enjoyed the video. I can see the classic style with the little touches that you have pointed out that French women wear but as a man I would say that it's more than the clothes but the actual way that a French woman can carry herself that is attractive. The je ne sais quoi is in the women themselves and the clothes only complement that. Very enjoyable video
well commented
Nothing wrong with watching this. My husband is very very straight, and would not watch this, but we, women, have no objection to men watching this (you probably watched a video that had to do with fashion... maybe men's fashion). Who knows why this popped up...
The women are very comfortable with themselves. I think that's illegal in the US.
Thanks for the video
Merci beaucoup for your channel. I was pleased recently when a world traveler gentleman told me I looked very French. My ancestry on my mother’s side is Ferrée, Du Bois, and de la Rouchefoucauld. My French ancestors came to America as Huguenots fleeing persecution in the early 1700s. I very much admire the French je ne se quois and try to incorporate it into my style. Thanks for making it personal and accessible and helping us understand how the French have such elegánce.
The black and white dress is perfectly made. The stripes are perfectly aligned. So lovely
If Marie-Anne invited me over she’d have to check my tote bag on the way out!
I have taken notes based on your videos with me when I shop. I went to an estate sale yesterday and found the most beautiful soft, gray tone, open front, cashmere cardigan with a single wooden button. I already made a pair of gray woolen slacks with side pockets. I spent a week tailoring the pattern so they fit me perfectly. Now I am shopping for black leather loafers and a simple blouse that I can add just a touch of detailing to it. I am having so much fun since I found you and your channel.
I love thrift shops for classic, yet different pieces. And...the prices are amazing!
Love the French dress style.. I’ve always preferred simple and elegant with a twist - in accessories too.
Love each of the pieces! Not only do they have little details but you can see they are quality items well cared for.
I love what you're saying. It's funny because these details are what I am always looking for in clothing I pick up at thrift stores! I try to spend a small amount but yet get nice things with great workmanship.
Love the way you explain the secret details and we can see your enthusiasm and passion in your eyes💓 since we were kids my mom told us exactly that kind of style Tipps - that’s why it’s lovely to hear them again after 30 years- thanks very much, greetings from Turkiye
I love that you are giving us French lessons not just in style, but language! I took the Babble course for a trip to Paris, but they do not pronounce it to you with the way it is actually spoken.
I will try to add some more Van Gogh 😃
Thank you--I have removed all the gaudy items from my wardrobe.
Those are beautiful looking pieces, so simple but special 😍 You have such impeccable taste 💖
The type of fabric of the blouse at 7:37 that has that lovely dotted stitching effect is called "plumetis". Sometimes it is also called "point d'esprit" but I believe plumetis is the most correct term.
I've traveled to France twice and have noticed the simple, but elegant way that French women dress. This was very informative and enjoyable!
The white blouse is a Swiss dot fabric! Love your videos!!
Marie - Anne, I love your accent. Your clothes are beautiful, timeless classic pieces that you could have in your wardrobe for many years. I think it's worth investing a little more money into good fabrics and a piece that's a little different. As you would wear them time and time again. I love the black and white, and navy and white stripes and polka dots in your wardrobe, and accessories, just beautiful 😄
So love this aspect of French Chic style. Worth being careful with details. I have v small petite frame but big bust and sloping shoulders so I look for details on sleeves, hems, waist. Avoid pockets and fuss around bust and neck. Learning so much every time. Thank you ❤
I like your thinking Search Light 😃
My favourite store in Australia is Blue Illusion ( look it up) all their garments are styles as French Chic......giving much to charities from the purchases. Beautiful materials, styles and all the ‘little French details’ you are mentioning in this video.......I am trying my best
Thank you Marianne…
I am buying some new basic pieces, first time since the pandemic. I have bought several classic pieces, and am scrutinizing my closet for the best keepers. Have also found an alterations shop…my favorite straight black skirt does not need to be given up after all.
This has been fun,..with your inspiration,
I thought I had a lot of clothes. I have 12.5 feet of closet with a lot of hangers holding 2 items. On top over the hangers is a shelf holding 3 plastic bins holding winter items. Then I have a bureau.
But, YOU, Marie-Anne I believe have more than me, and YOURS are well maintained, coordinates well together, and are carefully and intelligently purchased.
I'm getting there. I have to thoughtfully sift through the closet. And I don't have to worry about winter clothes only about a few weeks of the year. But I do have to wear cardigans, blazers, long sleeves , capes and shawls because of excessive air cooling in Florida.
Thank you for your advice. 😘
I feel I'm am wiser and better dressed. You are doing a great service to women who are willing to listen.
Marie- Anne has lovely taste and style in her wardrobe choices. She is a great one for details and quality and that's the secret to her style.
I like the colours especially - subdued and never loud or garish with a minimum of patterns on the garment.
I love your videos Marie-Anne...so classy! As a 40 year old woman I appreciate the value of quality classic pieces. Thank you!
Bonjour Marie-Anne! Cette jupe noire avec le petit froufrou à l'ourlet est vraiment adorable! Je la mettrais avec plaisir 😉!
Personnellement, j'aime beaucoup fouiner dans les friperies car j'arrive à trouver des trésors de vêtements avec ces petits détails qui les rendent uniques (et à un prix imbattable )😊.
PS: ce décolleté bateau vous va à ravir 👌.
Hi Marie-Anne. I recently found your channel and I am thrilled! I am a complete Francophile
I am obsessed with the style and grace of French women. I am enjoying all your videos💃🏻🗼😘
Bonjour Marie-Ann, I discovered your videos / site a few days ago and I became addicted to them. Great style, advice, I could not agree more. I love this hairstyle and your rouje color.... even more than in the newer episodes, but you look chic no matter which episode I watch! Thank you!
Thank you. I will look at clothes differently when I shop now!
Hi!. The white silk blouse 7:44 I know such fabric as "plumeti", it could be made with silk, linen or cotton. Lovely tips that last for ever!.🌹
These details truly make ordinary things special. Thanks for all your tips. They elevate my life!
I too love the small details that make the pieces that much more special and unique! Loved your video!
Out of all your videos, I enjoyed this the most (and I have been thoroughly enjoying working my way through lots of them!). This is EXACTLY what I also look for in clothes. I really love subtle small details that make something unique and special. Loving all your stripes - I am also mad for stripes and never get sick of them. That beautiful blue striped lurex jumper reminds me of a really beautiful Maje jumper I’ve got. I mainly buy Australian brands of clothing but I do really love Sandro, Maje, Claudie Pierlot and Comptoir Des Cotonniers (last two not available in Australia so I only buy if on hols in Europe) and I once found a shop called Carol when I was on holiday in Corsica which I thought was gorgeous! The reason I like then is because the clothing has a twist which makes it interesting and special.
This has always been my principle in clothes, to keep it classic, simple not to busy. I have a few nautical, stripy tops and dresses always look cute. So true, they need to have a little extra detail or different sort of texture, just enough to catch the eye and see it for more than it is, as opposed it just being a navy cardigan :). I find the French female style as understated but stylish with a unique air about themselves.
I loved this video! I have an eye for details and i always look for that in clothes, like one tiny button in a different coulour. You are so elegant and full of enthusiasm. I love how you carry yourself.
Just discovered your channel today and am SO happy I did. You are amazing and you truly inspired me. Thank you so much for this excellent video. I look forward to more. - xx, Carla
Thank you for your fashion insights Marie-Anne I really appreciate them and will incorporate them into my own wardrobe
french women are inspirational. They inspire women all over the world. New subscriber here :)
Thank you for this video. I’m living in a home with very little clothing storage space in Japan, so I’ve been looking into simplifying my wardrobe. But living in Japan, the variety of flashy clothes and simple clothes is a little overwhelming and I’m never sure what to look for. I think I’ll start looking for more basic items with a little flare next time I go clothes shopping. 👍
I wholeheartedly agree! I often try to choose clothing that has some little touch that makes it different or elevates it. Btw, the fabrication of the white blouse with the raised white dots is called, "Dotted Swiss."
Thank you so much for these great videos! Just beautiful. I love the simplicity.
Absolutely love your tips and seeing what once was simple has a tiny detail that makes it unique and beautiful. Fabulous video!
Thank you for explaining the details, i always admired the French dressing style but couldn't figure out what makes them look simple yet elegant .
This is the place to discover what all the channels who post about French Chic but who aren't French don't know about authentic French Style Razrai 😘
Yes, I too find things are in the little details that set it apart. I'm a newbie to your channel. I am loving the striped dress with the lower cut in the back. I am a big fan of these type of clothes. Maybe I have a wee bit of French in me. Thanks, I do have a wish to visit France at some point in my life. You are a Beautiful Soul. I love a nice pair of black pumps then you look at the back and there is a small bow which changes up the simple look. I am trying to change up my wardrobe. I have a high bedroom that was made into a huge closet. Whenever anyone comes I get teased. Due to I had to purchase around turn rack .ike they have in department stores as well as having the whole back wall rack about 20 feet long with more clothes than 1 women could ever wear unless she was a model. Or an entertainer. I just love clothes, shoes, Scarfs, I live in the US but I do not dress like an ordinary person. I inherited this love of clothes from my Beautiful Mother. She was always dressed to the nines and from her Nail polish to her shoes, earrings. She stood out. Everywhere she went. I miss her so very very much. I am thankful for her love and guidance thru out my life... Thanks, I love your video. Much love sent your way...
Thank you for this informative video. It helps me to be aware of the small differences that each garment has to enhance the look and make it unique and beautiful. Not ordinary but extraordinary! 🌟
LOVE your video Marie-Anne so many lovely ideas which are special!!!Thank youxxx
I love the extra little details that make a garment stand out. I look for that as well. 100% agree!
Bravo, Marie Anne, je suis parisienne et vous etes "la crème de la crème " du bon gout français, simple et raffiné mais pas ennuyeux.
🤗
I'm learning ... I'm learning ... Thanks Marie-Anne!
Hi Marie-Anne. Thank you for this wonderful video. I find it very interesting that you favor basics that have little details that make them different and interesting, such as your jacket with leather trim or your pencil skirt with the ruffled hem. Those are certainly pretty clothes. But I choose to I go another way with my wardrobe. I purposely stick to the simplest, plainest basics I can find, ones that that lack such details. For example, I have a plain, unembellished black pencil skirt and a similarly plain black trouser, neither of which have any details that make them different or interesting. They are just good quality basics that fit me well. However, I bring interest to my outfits each day with my accessories and with unexpected, fresh pairings. By sticking to the plainest basics I can find, I can wear the same skirt or trouser day after day without drawing attention the fact that I am doing so. I simply change the accessories or add a jacket or gorgeous boots or a colorful handbag, and I can make very different outfits out of the same basic clothing. I suppose we each travel our own path to our personal style. But I find that clothing that is too memorable in my wardrobe gets the least wear. I don't want my friends, family, and colleagues to think, "Oh, she's wearing that again." I'd rather keep the basics basic and add the je ne sais quoi in other interesting ways.
Laura, my wardrobe is built much the same way - simple classic tops and bottoms, with the punch in a collection of interesting jackets or vests, and a few handsome scarves, pins or pendants. I'll pay homage to my favorite jacket, a classic Levi-style cut in a khaki-brown Indian embroidered sheeting, from Chico's, which has been worn to death over the last fifteen years and finally laid to rest. It may serve as a pattern for a new incarnation.
Wow, your jacket sounds like a workhorse and very much loved. Please let me know when you find something new to fill that gap in your wardrobe. I"m curious to know how will you move forward after saying goodbye to such an old and dear friend. I had to lay to rest a perfect long single-button oatmeal-colored blazer that literally became threadbare from wear. That was more than two years ago and I haven't found anything even close take its place. I can't tell you how many times I've thought about it and missed it.
Very gracious respondse.
Thank you! Loved all the pieces, especially the white blouse. Very nice discussion of choosing simple pieces with a subtle detail that makes them special. New subscriber.
Such a lovely cardigan !!! J' adore le style francais
Hi Marie=Anne Here in the US women outside of big cities dress casual and relaxed . I admire women who put an effort into their style to add class. You make this look seem easy with your great tips and lovely videos. Every women should subscribe to your channel! Thank you, Anne
Thank you, Marie-Anne. I must have some natural French style because I have the same type of clothing and ways of wearing them. Still, I do break a few of the French rules, sometimes stepping out of my comfort zone, just for the fun of it. I love your videos!
*Marie-Anne Lecoeur:* Thank you Marie-Anne! I always knew French women were well-dressed, but I've never seen the type of clothes itemized before. Very interesting to know!
I like how the pieces you show are basic pieces in style for many years, yet you show they are not plain based subtle details that people will notice almost on a subconscious level until they are even closer to you and appreciate that little something extra. I could take a basic black tank top and hand crochet a black lace border on the bottom with sparkle black thread with a pretty design and it would give it something special to the piece. I see. You look very chic, by the way.
Hi Marie- Anne, at7:43 of this video i watched a style that i was transforming my old top that was long but needed to expand at neck. Got a great idea to transform it in a new look by adding two little patches at the shoulders by cutting the long sleeves. Loved ur ideas and tips. Thank you so much.😘😘😍😍😍😍
Bonjour, these pieces are standing out from classic pieces I generally consider. Thanks for sharing these. Will look for such stuff in future.
That is great KMSM - let me know how you get on x
I felt a great affinity for you and other French women while watching this because this is what I automatically began doing as soon as I was able to start selecting my own clothing in my teens. This video felt very affirming to me. Merci beaucoup.
Today this video really hit home. I was attending a meeting, and the dress was casual. I have a cardigan style olive green faux suede jacket, with tiny leaf cutouts showing the teal fabric lining underneath. I wore my dark indigo jeans, the olive green jacket and a lighter teal knit shirt. Someone came up to me and when she got closer she commented on the teal that showed thru the cut outs and she loved it! This woman has twenty times the number of clothes and shoes I have so it made me feel great, the tiny little detail I loved on the jacket was obvious to someone else who really loves clothes. I wore my jade beads, which were subtle but looked terrific with the jacket.
A friend of mine used to say that my mother "dressed like a French woman." Mom always felt it was the greatest of compliments.
The details of the wardrobe are beautiful. Love it!
I only just discovered your channel and very happy I watched this video!! Wonderful tips to keep our wardrobe simple but elegant!
Absolutely beautiful!
You have such a unique and classy channel. I just came across it this week and I am enjoying all your videos. Keep posting!
Charlene Laguer,I like your glasses
great tips! Merci!
Un petit je ne sais quoi. J’adore. Merci
Love your style. So classic yet modern. Lovely. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely video on the classic style and how to dress elegantly. I’m not sure all French women dress this way though, my French mother-in-law wears leopard, fringes and see-through blouses all the time 😂 her outfits are way more daring than mine!
This video is so informative! I love special details when I see them, but while shopping, I think that I have tended to focus more on price rather than making sure that those items have special touches or an interesting detail of some kind. Thank you so much for giving me food for thought, as even the smallest of details DOES elevate the style of that garment!
Very nice. Thanks. It gets so hot in Houston, Texas that we wear a lot of cotton. Not knits. Woven. It’s a little fattening looking but it sure feels good in the uncomfortable heat. I’ve noticed in Mexico and Hawaii there are a lot of cotton dresses with no waistline and here we call them shifts, dusters and mucus and they are so comfortable after work too with two large patch pockets. Sleeveless even better when it gets hot.
Mumus
Thank for the advice, so reassuring, will definitely revamp wardrobe with 'chic et unique' in mind.
Thank you for your delightful videos. I am so glad there is someone willing to teach about quality and taste in dressing. Some of the special details that make a garment stand out have been called "dressmaker details" in the US. An example would be top-stitching, or a box-stitch pleat on a skirt. They come from Haute couture, and most likely French Haute couture. Just as you say, French chic - is to have some of the special things that make an item unique and which you will not find in the throw-away clothes that is everywhere.
I just discovered your channel and I so glad I did! Great video! It’s all in the details! Wonderful pieces.
I am doing that too!!!! Its to find something that will make the outfit more interesting and stylish.
I love detail that is different. Blush color is so on trend ..wish I was as small as you classic compact woman are ...you’ll never age
Discovered your channel and love it! These pieces are gorgeous. I think the thread detail on the LS white blouse is called "eyelash." You and your clothing choices are so elegantly understated and I look forward to watching more of your videos.
the top you are wearing with the wide neck is so elegant, just like you
Yay! I’ve never worn any of these, except a jacket with a neon pink stripe so that my friends could spot me on the ski slope! One of the things American and British women are doing that I think should be added to the No list is wearing their entire jewelry collection at one time. Four necklaces plus multiple earrings or huge ones, multiple bracelets and rings. The poor eye doesn’t know what to look at first! Tons of obvious, heavy makeup with contouring, layers of eye shadow, and huge false eyelashes also is common, but looks pathetic, if not downright scary. Super-long fake fingernails is another one! I always followed the less-is-more rule for accessories, having learned Coco Chanel’s advice in my teens. One of the best things about French style is that it is so natural-looking. I once saw two beautiful, elegant women having al fresco lunch near my office in San Francisco. “I’ll bet they are French”, I thought. Sure enough, when we were seated at a nearby table and I could hear their Parisian speech, I found that they were indeed. They were wearing simple, quality, solid colored wool-jersey dresses, beautiful silk scarves, understated fine jewelry, and beautiful classic leather shoes and bags. They had very minimal makeup and super-clean, shiny longish hair. Gorgeous!
How lovely you are & so informative, too. Merci, Marie-Anne!
Wenda Presley,you look gorgeous 🌹🌹🌺
Such a lovely video! You're such an elegant beautiful woman!
My first visit to your wonderful channel! You’re truly a breath of fresh air with grace and sophistication. I’ve subscribed and look forward to your videos. Merci, Marie-Anne! 💐
I just discovered your Chanel and I am already in love. I love everything about French culture and style. I am French at heart! Simple, but always elegant.
I really, really love the sleeveless shirt with the front peephole. I can already see the million ways it ca be styled. I love your videos so much and I look forward to your next one. :)
Great video, thank you, I always find it hard to find such lovely clothes, with this little extra something in Germany
Love,Love that sleeveless blouse!!!
I love your tip about a special detail. I will start looking for them more.
Great hairstyle Marianne. Suits you perfect. It makes you 10 years +younger. Very very fresh. Congrats.
🤗
Hello M. A. L.
I discovered you not so long ago. Wish l had earlier. My life would have been simplyfied long time ago as l have learned so so much from your fashion channel. Anyway, it's never too late. My fashion thoughts so simple now. Thanks so much.
My favorite is the lovely white blouse. Love all of your videos. Thank you.
Great video as always. What are some of your favorite brands and/or designers.
I think the fabric of the white blouse (7:35) is called dotted swiss. Or dobby cotton. One of my favorites.
Loved the vid .yes agree it is the discreet little extra additions that can make an item just that bit special ,thanks for the idear ,will def be mindful when next I go shopping .
Beautiful and so elegant 😊
I am very impressed😊😊!...very charming and chic!❤️❤️❤️
I just found your channel too and just love the little details you were talking about. I will definitely look at the clothes I buy differently.
I loved seeing all the style details and interesting fabrics of your clothing. So simple yet so elegant. Yes, that IS the French style, no? To maintain elegance and style, please tell us what under garments French Woman use, when wearing tank tops, halter tops, off the shoulder tops and peep-hole or backless garments. Here in the states, so many women show off their bra straps and more! I do not find that very chic or elegant. Do you? Thank you
@J Spann - I agree! What is it with the bra straps showing under a tank top?
I can't speak for everyone, but I have a very large chest - and I live in an area that can reach 100°+ during the summer. Strapless bras aren't sensible at my size. should I forego tank tops to assuage your delicate sensibilities?! Look away if you don't like it; we don't always have a choice.
@@MadAboutBrows I get what you mean. I think their point is *maybe* some people do it intentionally for fashion, not just because they have no choice..
@@MadAboutBrows Perhaps if you are a fan of that you can learn to sew (tank tops are so easy) and make your own that perfectly cover your straps. I do this, quite simple to do and rewarding for making something useful.
Can you tell us about chic shoes for a chic wardrobe? Do French women wear heels all the time? Or flats? What would go well in a capsule wardrobe?
Thank you, love you videos and classic inspiration.
I would say it would be the same sort of principle as her dress style, simple, classic with just a little detail. But it would be interesting to see.
