Marie-Anne, feel like giving you a compliment today. Your channel is filled with humor, but never under the belt humor. I think your channel is one of the most classy and high value channels on youtube. Always fun to click on and watch any of your videos.
Wow, I was shocked by the immediate difference that unbuttoning the cardi made. So simple, but immediately made the top half look more interesting. Tucking also, and the new shoes but those didn't surprise me as much as I knew that the look would be improved by making those particular changes. I'm glad that you made the point that none of the pieces were wrong - just not together and not all buttoned up/hanging out.
Me too! That top button made such a difference. There are those like Marie-Anne who have style and those like myself who could do with learning some style! I am doing the tucking and it doesn´t always feel comfy to me, but it certainly does look better and with an nice belt buckle showing. I agree with your point that no, nothing wrong with the items, it is the way that you are wearing them. Not to their best effect!!!
Could you please make more videos like this? It is very helpful. Recently I have been struggling with heavy, frumpy shilouette and everything looks so unbalanced. It is great to see some tips how to fix it. And I have to confess that recently I have not been keeping it simple! I used to have a very minimal style, but then I started experimenting and I think I have overcomplicated it! Definitely I need to go back to simplicity, because when I wear something clean and smooth I feel the most elegant! :)
LOVED this reminder. Often I know an outfit should work and somehow it lets me down, so i plan ahead and give myself more than 15 minutes (😄🤪) of prep time so that I can work it more until i get it from basic/frumpy to who i am/feel inside. thank you MA, you've been there with me many, many times!
Marianne, this video is so helpful in watching how you transform nice but blah elements into something great-looking. I have learned do much from your videos and deeply appreciate your caring, fun personality and warmth as well as your graceful modeling of various outfits. I want to let you know that at least for me the short TikTok videos that have been appearing do not sufficiently showcase the very appealing qualities of your great longer pieces. It seems the lens is telescoping your figure so that the lower half of your torso appears slightly broader than the upper. The lighting does not do you justice, either. Most of all your warmth and delight in teaching us and in making discoveries as you do so does not appear in the shorts, where you present as being rather aloof and preoccupied with posture. That problem is compounded by having impersonal rather trite slogans cropping up to obscure the outfits and you. The shorts just seem to patronize the viewer and appeal to consumers with commercial slickness. I read nothing but compliments for the shorts, and I have been loathe to write my reservations in public comments. I thought maybe you had somehow changed. When I just saw this recent long video, I see all the qualities that are extraordinary, and that I hope many others will discover. I am writing to say I have concern that new people may not turn to your linger videos if all they see is the short ones in their present incarnation. Thank you for considering my feedback.
I am stunned by the impact of the changes you made. Using the same garments, and not truly altering the cut, you were still able to make a remarkable difference in the style and appearance of the outfit. Wow!
Great tips. A good reminder that sometimes it’s not the clothes but simple styling ideas. I’ve been watching your videos for years and it’s so helpful even in how I purchase clothes. I have a wardrobe finally that I love and get excited about as I really try to keep your lessons close when I choose items. I still have misses, but less so. Thanks and I agree with others that I’d love to see you do more videos like this.
LOVE this video!! Thank you for doing this! Please do more videos like this with other examples. Great tips. Love seeing the process and hearing you think through your choices, especially why things work and why they don’t.
Oh my… this video is gold! The small steps changed the look completely… the last one made me smile Marie-Anne..what an impressive transformation.. Merci 💕
Thanks so much for sharing these easy tips to unfrump an outfit. Another adjust I like to make is put a figure hugging tank underneath and only fasten about 3 buttons and let the tank peak out. Thanks again!
Simply opening one top button and a gentle tuck made an impact! The blue color on you is superb! Adding a soft silk blouse and jacket is my winning combo. Loved all the comments from other ladies.
Personally, I think those particular silver tipped heels are too dressy for those jeans. But heels definitely helped the look. The ankle boots are much more in keeping with the personality or statement of the outfit, especially once you unfolded the cuffs. I love the look of layering the crisp white blouse, actually any coordinating blouse, under the cardigan, but what to do if layering makes me too hot and sweaty?! I live where it super cold and most homeowners and shop workers keep the heat way too hot for me. Do I take off the cardigan? Do I lose my chic? I love the classic final outcome of the ensemble. Unbelievable! I just bought a classic looking black blazer last night! I also ordered some more updated looks for fun. (They're from Amazon, so they're easily returned if I don't like them.) I'm trying to update my wardrobe since I've lost weight. I'm so glad I watched this video. Now I have a lot of clothes to try on to see what fits, what needs to be taken in, refashioned or tossed out as well. That's what I'll do tomorrow (I'm retired but I still want to look good when I'm no doing yard work or house cleaning. I've been on Pinterest and RUclips a lot the last few days and I'm so glad I found your channel. I actually have my Bachelor degree in fashion (graduated in 1980), but it's been so long since I could bother and play with fashion. I'm finally finding myself again and what style feels like me. I'll be back after I try on my clothes and take inventory of at I have on hand. I still need your help with how to style what I have. Thank you for what you do on RUclips! Where else do you offer your knowledge and talent? Next thing will be a new hair style. But I'm waiting for it to be long enough to donate 1 last time, hopefully this spring. Plus it's pretty cold this time of year where I live. I'm planning to go short, not as short as your style, but short none-the-less.
Bonjour Michelle I am so glad my channel resonates with you 🤗 Layering in quality pieces will allow you to shed the top layers and stay Chic 😃 Decluttering will accelerate your style journey to where you want it to go 😃 I have a whole range of courses and masterclasses on my website at www.marieannelecoeur.com including my French Chic Academy which is open for enrolment for the winter intake right now 😘
Thank you, thank you for the quick fix and the more polished looks. I'm old, slender, but still only 5' 2", so I'm paying attention to what to replace and how to update. I always enjoy your fresh look. Thanks!!
So simple and so relaxing to watch. Love your style and suggestions! It’s wonderful to watch a mature woman with so much polish! This was truly helpful!👏 👏👏💖
From 5:06 to 5:22, before you added the shirt, you pushed up the cardigan sleeves to three quarter length and that instantly looked better, more finished. I think it created a horizontal block of colour atop a narrow vertical block. When you added the blouse you once again pushed up the sleeves to the same effect but a little busier because of the flash of white. This is a fun game!
I just discovered your channel and this is my new comfort zone. You talk about the things I need help with or the things I can relate to. This gives me so much motivation. Thank you🙏
Bon soir Marie-Anne, what a amazing example of transforming. Step by step one can follow a clear structure how to change a look. Thanks for the video. It is really professional teaching 🤩
Bonjour Marie-Anne, I LOVE this video. Such simple tweaks to go from Frumpy to Chic. I haven't tucked for years, but after watching your videos I began a couple of months ago and can't believe the difference it makes to simply create a waistline! Always inspiring! Merci!
Another postive reason for me to release 25 lbs I've gained in 3 mo. (Changing meds. ) I loved tucking in to create a waist. I feel so much better wearing slimmer look clothes. I cant wear stilettos but you've showed us how to wear other shoes. I live my Frenchy looks.
Now that it is getting cold, the sweaters are coming out. I love the blue cardigan with the blouse. Although the jacket is great, I'm not convinced the outfit is appropriate for this weather, unless you are going out. I also love the boots as I don't wear heels anymore. I live near the countryside, difficult to look stylish when trying to stay warm and practical sometimes. Thanks for sharing.
Bonjour Marie-Anne. The other day I wore wideleg jeans with a fine knit jumper tucked in at the side. So flattering, made my legs look as if they went on forever (I'm 5ft5). Thank you for your excellent advice. We can always rely on you..
I have this video bookmarked and come back to it all the time! While I've got much better at choosing clothes over the past couple of years, I sometimes still get lazy and wear them in a 'blah' kind of way. Thank you for this reminder to make that bit of extra effort on the details...it makes such a difference :)
❤I will look for it! I’ve always been a bit self conscious, but my father used to tell me I was tall and slim, like a model. However, I envy your lovely and fun movements!
Oh my goodness...i love this! I have all the pieces but the way you teach how to put it together in really game changing. More videos in this format - where you teach how to take a frump outfit to chic and modern please.
You lead me to look so much better. In the past, I have worried about falling into frump. I no longer worry but I can always do better at being more stylish. Thank you for your videos.
Marie-Anne I love this look....all of them. It makes you look youthful without appearing too youngish and silly. Back to shopping my closet! Thank you!
I totally appreciate how you went from a frumpy look to chic by doing simple tweaks! I'm in my mom-frump stage, so your videos are reminding me how I used to put effort into myself. Thank you for the encouraging video!
Love your videos! I always learn a lot from your videos. I usually don't tuck my sweaters inside my pants but I see it's very chic to do so. Thanks again Marie Ann! You're the best!
I know it has been a year since you posted this, but my updates were not coming - thank you for this simple and fun video. I am so glad you changed out with boots at the end - so much easier for the feet who are standing all day. It is still a chic look even for me in the classroom - wonderful! I have to admit I liked the cardigan just before you switched it out for the jacket - the jacket looks good but that little touch of color looked so lovely on you - thank you for continuing this channel!
Bonjour Timduch - apparently notifications can get switched off if you update your computer! Make sure you are subscribed and click on the notification bell so that you don't miss any content again 😃
@@MarieAnneLecoeur I loved this video!! I felt it was just made for me personally!! I just bought a blue v knecked sweater and I was just going to return it as I thought it looked too frumpy on a 68 year old petite grandma!!! Until I saw the video!! Next time ease do the same video with a skirt instead of pants.😇😇😇🤗🤗🤗
Marie-Anne, I just discovered your channel. You are so helpful. I've recently lost some "frumpy " weight and want to build a capsule wardrobe. I wish my Senior feet could still wear heels but I'll improvise. Thank you for sharing your expertise and positive attitude😊
Bonjour Mary Ann ands a Big French Chic Welcome to you 🤗 for more on flat shoes watch here ruclips.net/video/3nCJhlWchFQ/видео.html and here ruclips.net/video/vRA4CLS5xrY/видео.html 😘
Marie-Anne. I've been loving your videos. They have really helped this 62 yr old to get out of the frumpy mode. I haven't found my style in so long. I have been now living in Strasbourg FR. And have been wanting to improve my wardrobe. I fell in love with your silver toed shoes and I walked into Mango and there they were but I cannot seem to wear high heels any longer. Then I saw the low cuts boots with the silver toe. Snapped them up along with a couple of blouses. Thanks so much for inspiration.
You bring so many flattering ideas about. I can do everything you suggested with the wardrobe I have. Since watching your channel, I no longer hide my waist. I have an hour glass figure with some weight in my hips and tummy. My husband loves the changes.❤
I just want to thank you. I have so many pieces of clothes that I love but when I put them on I don't feel pretty. But your small changes made the difference and now they look like I had hoped and expected. Thank you so much. It seems so simple but I needed this video!
You always got a Very good style Marie anne No frumpy. I just want to let you now I make that Roasted Peppers Hummus my Husband said its from the best we are Plantbased eaters so that recipe are excellent for us. More recipes are always welcome. 😊
Those few tweaks were great! Such a different look. With the lovely French accent you sound and look marvelous!! Glad I found your channel. I’m 5’9” and have major frump. Now I’ll improve, thank you🙏🏻🌷🌷
We’re probably close in age and size. I must give you credit for the shoes at around 5:00. I don’t own a single pair like that because my feet would ache too much. As for the look, bravo 👏🏻 Well done!!!
@@MarieAnneLecoeur Perhaps I should give heels another chance. I have boots similar to the ones you show after the heels. I can walk and stand for hours in those. Thank you for your suggestions
I love this video, but it was driving me nuts with NO belt. I knew you would add one and I was not disappointed. I also love the white blouse. The black blazer though was the ultimate in chic.
Love your videos Marie-Anne! It’s a joy to watch and hear you! Vive La France! I’m a Brit but Francophile… had 8 years of French lessons in school in Canada and Germany. I wish you continued success with your great channel! 😘
I agree with leaving the first button open but otherwise that outfit looks casual & comfortable. Never will I ever replace flats with heels. Period. BTW I never have to worry about my waist not being seen as long as the sweater etc fits me through the shoulders,waist & hips. Why? Cause I have a really big bust😂 I won’t tuck anything in nor wear belts because I’m extremely short waisted, 🥰 Now for you, your changes did improve your total looks 🤗.
THIS is exactly how I feel about most of the people around me (and I'm 36 so your advices really work with any age!): they don't have horrible clothes, they just don't know how to wear it - which produces a frustration and instant need to go shopping and buy some more garments. While, sometimes, the only thing you need to do is tuck, unbutten, roll up or fold down. Great video!!!
I would have NEVER tucked in a cardigan before this video. It looks great. I also had an idea of unbuttoning the cardigan and Wearing as a jacket with a basic underneath.
I wish you’d do more of this type of video - very helpful for those of us who are older (60+). I really struggle to do ‘casual’ for some reason - help!!! x
Marie-Anne, feel like giving you a compliment today. Your channel is filled with humor, but never under the belt humor. I think your channel is one of the most classy and high value channels on youtube. Always fun to click on and watch any of your videos.
I agree with you a thousand percent 🧚♀
I fully agree, it is such a pleasure to watch your videos

I love doing a side tuck, its so flattering. I never realized it made my legs look longer! I like anything that makes my legs look longer.

I just want to thank you. I have so many pieces of clothes that I love but when I put them on I don't feel pretty. But your small changes made the difference and now they look like I had hoped and expected. Thank you so much. It seems so simple but I needed this video!
You are very welcome Ashley x
Love your suggestions thank you. So simple but very effective. Thank you.
Simple is always best Jan 😃
Ilove your outfit my fear simple but beautiful and nice
Staysafe 💖💗💓
Please show a video on how to wear moccasins thank you so much
Great video 🌹
It shows it's not so much what you wear, but now you wear it.
What a great transition those tweaks made! Great job dumping the frump! Thank you Marie-Anne! 💛🎉
I’m guilty of the frumpy look but didn’t realize I could tweak it to look a bit nicer. Excellent video!
I have tweaks for every style issue Lisa 😉
You always got a Very good style Marie anne No frumpy. I just want to let you now I make that Roasted Peppers Hummus my Husband said its from the best we are Plantbased eaters so that recipe are excellent for us. More recipes are always welcome. 😊
Wow!!!! That transformation was crazy good!!!!!
You are a genius. Wow!
Merry Christmas 🎄🙂
Those few tweaks were great! Such a different look. With the lovely French accent you sound and look marvelous!! Glad I found your channel. I’m 5’9” and have major frump. Now I’ll improve, thank you🙏🏻🌷🌷
Yayyyy Renee 🙌
We’re probably close in age and size. I must give you credit for the shoes at around 5:00. I don’t own a single pair like that because my feet would ache too much. As for the look, bravo 👏🏻 Well done!!!
I can still dance in heels Sue - I am lucky my mother taught me how to walk in heels form a young age🙏
@@MarieAnneLecoeur Perhaps I should give heels another chance. I have boots similar to the ones you show after the heels. I can walk and stand for hours in those. Thank you for your suggestions
Let me know how you get on x
Wow, you are really good at this. Nice to find someone who isn’t telling me to throw out all my clothes and constantly buy new wardrobe.
I love this video, but it was driving me nuts with NO belt. I knew you would add one and I was not disappointed. I also love the white blouse. The black blazer though was the ultimate in chic.
Love your videos Marie-Anne! It’s a joy to watch and hear you! Vive La France! I’m a Brit but Francophile… had 8 years of French lessons in school in Canada and Germany.
I wish you continued success with your great channel! 😘
Merci Cristabele 😘
I agree with leaving the first button open but otherwise that outfit looks casual & comfortable. Never will I ever replace flats with heels. Period. BTW I never have to worry about my waist not being seen as long as the sweater etc fits me through the shoulders,waist & hips. Why? Cause I have a really big bust😂
I won’t tuck anything in nor wear belts because I’m extremely short waisted, 🥰
Now for you, your changes did improve your total looks 🤗.
Loved all the tweets, thank you for the ideas x
THIS is exactly how I feel about most of the people around me (and I'm 36 so your advices really work with any age!): they don't have horrible clothes, they just don't know how to wear it - which produces a frustration and instant need to go shopping and buy some more garments. While, sometimes, the only thing you need to do is tuck, unbutten, roll up or fold down. Great video!!!
I would have NEVER tucked in a cardigan before this video. It looks great. I also had an idea of unbuttoning the cardigan and Wearing as a jacket with a basic underneath.
Frump bypass. Love the black boots. This is great.
😃
The tuck technique was new for me! Much less bulk.
Excellent video …and what a transformation of the outfit !
I wish you’d do more of this type of video - very helpful for those of us who are older (60+). I really struggle to do ‘casual’ for some reason - help!!! x
