with the rise of the quiet luxury and all money aesthetic Trends we have seen a rise in a rinse
and repeat clothing formula that for some may lack personality and even versatility now I
recently had a situation when I went to a holiday in Provence and I remember sitting at this really
beautiful high-end restaurant when a couple came in they were dressed head to toe in what
I think we can say is stereotypical old money aesthetic clothes you can imagine them wearing
exactly what all the old money aesthetic tick tocks currently are teaching you know where the
beige where the loafers where the pearl necklace the tide cardigan on your shoulders the tennis
outfit you name it as they walked in it made me reflect on something what happens when you end
up looking like a caricature of a style I mean I was thinking to myself their outfit wasn't bad
looking or it wasn't tacky or anything like that but there was something else that just didn't
feel right and that was it didn't look natural their outfits looked like a cosplay maybe felt a
little bit pretentious as well and this doesn't say that these people are not allowed to dress
like that or that they shouldn't but we're here to analyze style to see how we can improve things I
think it's so important to reflect over whether something can look sometimes a bit too much or
whether something looks balanced and natural and you know that ladies I think about this
all the time whenever I style myself in my classic clothing in my elegant clothing because especially
for the elegant clothes I don't want to look like a elegant stereotype even though that's my style
I still try to balance it out a bit and I will explain how I do it a bit later in this video so
as many of you know I teach here on this channel elegant and classic fashion styling so make sure
you subscribe if you haven't but of course I also have this series called how to look expensive and
this series is for women who really want to learn how to avoid wearing cheap looking clothes and
instead wear garments the look of high quality tweet dresses like this I would say do look
quite elegant and quite classy this is the kind of easiest way if you want to look classy on a budget
dressing expensive can also backfire sometimes it might not always be a good or suitable look when
you dress like a caricature of a rich person let's say you would put on the the diamonds you would
wear the fur the gloves the jewels and everything and it might look a bit too extravagant a bit too
much a bit like you're trying too hard again it doesn't look natural it doesn't look genuine in
a way so it is important to think about that when you are applying a style to your wardrobe
to make sure you apply it so that it works for you I think one thing also what has really been
sometimes misinterpreted by people is that when we want to look expensive people immediately think
that it's because we want to emulate looking like a rich person or pretending that we're
wealthier but it's never been that thing and I think it's super important to stay aware of your
style because actually you kind of want to avoid perhaps looking like a stereotypical rich person
you want to instead look like yourself and that that is your true style now the same goes for
elegance and elegance is also a very broad style even though it carries its own stereotypes I have
been focused really over the years to share with you how important it is to dress elegantly also
in a way that suits you and suits your personality and this is why I have developed something called
Elegant Style Personalities in my work because there isn't just one way of dressing elegantly
there are so many ways and you can actually create your own version or your own hybrid model but just
thinking that elegant is one style only not true elegant styling is more nuanced than that and by
the way if you really want to find out your style personality then go to stylepersonalityquiz.com
and take my free quiz that I've created for you going back to this couple I feel like they served
as a reminder to me how important it is to be careful when you apply a style formula to yourself
because if you don't get the right balance where the style looks natural on you then you might end
up looking pretentious and stereotypical and I am sure you ladies don't want to look like that no
and definitely us ladies who enjoy An Elegant Style especially they may be more stereotypical
Elegant Style we have to really be careful when we style ourselves because it is also possible to end
up looking like I don't know you're cosplaying An Elegant character in some movie view okay so
let's talk about how to dress old money aesthetic if you want to do that but without looking like
you are a caricature although I'm not super keen on this whole quiet luxury in old money aesthetic
hype I have spoken about that in my video that I suggest you watch after this video I still
think because of course these items nothing are wrong with wearing them but try to make them your
own somehow try to make sure that these old money aesthetic items fit with your personality and then
tweak parts that might not work for you and then maybe mix it up with some other styles because who
says that you really need to just wear one style I personally do not really opt so much for the very
traditional conservative classic elegant style that maybe some other people enjoy wearing a good
rule of thumb I am sure you have heard this one always remove one item before leaving the house to
make sure you have it over accessorize yourself the same thing works also with the old money
aesthetic styling because if you are dressed head to toe in the old manual aesthetic style then you
should just pause look yourself in the mirror and see hmm maybe I can remove at least one kind of
stereotypical old money aesthetic item and replace it with something a little bit less old money
aesthetic stereotypical okay I'm gonna give you my own example if I wear a very stereotypical elegant
dress then I might choose this cut in a more youthful fabric like denim or leather or let's say
on an everyday where I dress very casually I might spice it up by wearing a nice shirt dress which is
fairly elegant but then I break the Elegance up by wearing this dress with sneakers because that is
like adding sweet and salty popcorn mixed together have you ever looked at your wardrobe and had that
feeling that you have absolutely nothing to wear you know when you start to pull clothes out trying
on different outfits but nothing ends up looking good so you end up stretching for the old clothes
that you always wear and then instead you leave your house feeling and looking dull you know
ladies I used to have this feeling all the time until I found this amazing solution that changed
my wardrobe forever and I want to share the solution with you and I'm doing it in a private
class that I'm hosting free of charge so if you want to stop having this headache every time you
get dressed then come and join this class because I will be teaching you five amazing tools that you
must use in your styling and shopping process and ladies it's a complete Game Changer don't
miss this class just go to nothing to wear.me and sign up for this masterclass but ladies
hurry up because this class is going away and it's only here for limited amounts of time lastly be
careful with certain stereotypical attributes of the old money aesthetic style think about it this
way there are just certain elements that are very stereotypical like we're talking about the pearl
necklace we're talking about the cardigan that you tie on your shoulders certain type of tea dresses
certain A-line dresses maybe beige Blazers or beige high waist pants or maybe even white highway
shorts and these are just to name a few feel free to add more in the comments section below
and Please be aware nothing wrong with wearing these items there is nothing wrong with the pearl
necklace or a white high waist shorts but it's about how you combine it ladies if you just draped
Head To Toe with all the stereotypical items then of course it's gonna look a bit too much always
double check if maybe you're wearing too many of these items when you style yourself and then just
remove at least one to spice things up a little bit to not look so stereotypical and if you wonder
what my thoughts are on the old money aesthetic and quite luxury Trend well guess what I kind of
hate it and that will explain why in this video that I suggest you watch now I will see you there
