Thanks to my work I met and hung out with quite rich people from noble families but surprisingly they were much simpler than I thought and even for a gala party, despite being obviously very elegant they were never exaggerated.
Instead they stood out much more for their refined and kind ways towards everyone.

IMO even if you’re rich that doesn’t make you classy. How you treat someone says everything. We all deserve respect and a great outfit even if it’s thrifted. No one will know !

I’ve been dressing very casual my whole life and I feel like I’m finally ready to get out of my comfort zone and try out new styles like these

I find that thrift stores are the best place to find high quality items for cheap prices. If you can't afford a tailor, Youtube is perfect for teaching yourself how to do basic sewing. This method is not only good for the environment and for your wallet, but you learn a new skill for life as well. I have done this myself for a long time and it is still so vastly rewarding doing this compared to buying something straight off the shelf you can barely afford.

Love the "old money aesthetic". This obv ties I to the preppy collegiate look, and it's always timeless, effortlessly chic.

You’re spot on. I grew up in a small New England town amongst very old money. Household name products family money. No one would have known if you saw these people on the street. We all dressed the same which pretty much consisted of LLBean and Izod. Some of my friends houses were superbly decorated and may have had more than a station wagon in their garage. We knew they were “well off “ but not necessarily “better off”.
I think a sharp haircut, a healthy weight and grooming go a long way. I hate wearing labels. I had a couple expensive purses and would take the tags off. I never understood why you’d pay premium prices for shoes or purses and them do free advertising for them. Right?

Fantastic video! I feel like I’ve wasted so much money over the years on cheap fashion, when what I really wanted was to look classy, but I just didn’t know how to execute that aesthetic. :)

This is such a great video! I agree 💯 with everything you said about quality clothing and accessories, and elegance. I have been building my wardrobe and made some mistakes along the way but I think I found what works for me! I would love more videos like this one!

This is how ladies USED to look from the middle class. It was about manners, a calm polite presentation and classic clothes just a few quality pieces. This is how I was taught to dress. When I was a university administrator in the 80s to 2000 it came naturally for me and I was comfortable....Ralph Lauren and Tahari were my favorite designers Lord and Taylor and SAks were my go to stores for work wear. For party wear I went to Neimans for my clothing, evening bags, shoes...hundreds of dollars for shoes then on sale BUT the four pair I eventually had, I bought one pair a year, looked gorgeous on me 20 years later and my daughter now uses them for parties and they STILL are fashionable and very special. Silks, fine gauge wool, cashmere, linen were fabrics I bought. My color came from silk scarves I collected in Europe some Hermes but a few copies of Impressionist paintings from a tiny village above Nice, St. Paul de Vence. I STILL have and wear these...some are 70 yrs old from my mother in the 50s, others are from the 60s and 70s when I was in my 20s.

Thank you very much for this video ❤️. I am just 16 but I really feel like old money style fits me more than wearing just everything oversized and Jordans like almost everyone my age does. So this video helped me a lot, love the way you talk and definitely do more videos about this topic ! 😊 wishing everyone a good day 🥰

Ms Anna, thank you so much for your tips! I love your enthusiasm and positivity!

[missn.a.ndlovu]

Classic, wealthy, and never out of style. I have finally found my fashion taste.

[jennifermitchell]

Hey Anna!! Love these types of videos! I think that dressing like this makes me feel like I have my stuff together!! Would love to see a video on how to take care of these luxe pieces and maybe something on the best timeless handbags!!

[virginiagirl]

Thanks for all the tips. I love the classic style. That blue looks amazing on you!

[Realtor]

I LOVED this video Anna! Thank you ☺️
I would indeed like more versions of this.
You have very quickly become one of my favorite influencers and always crack me up!! 😂❤️

I don’t want to look rich, but I do want to look sophisticated and chic. In addition to buying good quality and getting a great fit, I think simple cuts and just restraint in general, helps a lot to get this look. As do focusing on classic styles, solid-color neutrals or basic colors (navy and light blue, many greens, red, burgundy, pinks) vs. trendy colors like neons, and classic prints (dots, stripes checks/plaids) rather than big trendy ones, do, too. I’m starting to consider some animal prints near-classics, also, if in natural colors and realistic scales. I think buying basics, rather than only statement items, is key, too. I noticed that many women who say they have nothing to wear often have huge wardrobes of all statement pieces, none of which can be worn together, and most of which are just too memorable. How many times would one want to wear a trendy one-shoulder, cutout, fringed-skirt neon orange dress?

[SummerThyme]

Yes Anna!! Loved this and would appreciateore content like this on your Channel! You mentioned at the end other ideas you had for upcoming vids and each of them would be perfect!! Looking forward to the next ✨️

[acrossNabroadTravel]

Thank you for using a diverse sample of people and size people in your videos😊 I’m also enjoying the info

[aislingiris]

I love ALL the outfits shown here.. so classy and elegant 💕

[SageOfTruth]

Very well said. This was an amazing review and very true about old wealth and new wealth. I was fortunate to attend high school in a wealthy area with most of them. A lot of them definitely were modest good down to earth people. 👏🏾
