I admire your style tremendously. Your presentation is open and honest and so generous in your advice Please don't defend yourself ....ignore these sad individuals
I can't believe people would be so cruel to you Marie-Anne! These comments say more about the person writing them than they do about you, it's their stuff - not yours. It's easy for people to hide behind a computer and spout hate and criticism. As ever you are so gracious, and that's commendable. Your true French Chic Ladies all adore you! And what I personally like, is how genuine you are and how you take the time to interact with your audience, replying to comments etc. Much love 😘 Thank you so much for all of the likes 😊
Here, here! I completely agree with you. Honestly, these negative, nasty comments sadly come with the territory of having any internet presence. I don't make any content, I merely comment on videos and have been called every name in the book. I pity the poor souls who must be so miserable that they treat others this way. Marie-Anne, brush off these comments and continue to make amazing content for us. For ever one "hater", there are a thousand fans ready to defend you. Bon jour!
Yeah exactly Courtney I love Marie-Anne, I’ve been listening and taking her advice for 3 years now, she really cares for others and it shows in every single video.
I'm 67, losing weight, and have "graduated" from dressing frumpy to wanting to change my clothing habits as I need to find new garments anyway. Your videos have given me plenty of ideas and help format my new wardrobe as I switch from piece to piece. You have a gift for helping women to know that there is no "too fat", "too old", or "ugly" for a woman to want to look her best. Thank you for your videos, Marie-Anne!
I’m 72, lost weight, and have gone from 2xl to 12/14 . Marie Anne has saved me so much money from purchase mistakes, and has elevated my style from flabby frump, to trim chic! I bought thrift, consignment pieces while losing. A few are still my faves. Best wishes!
Those comments have nothing to do with you and everything to do with them. There is NOTHING wrong with your hair. Some people would love to dress better but feel that they don't look good because of their size or shape. They get jealous of people with a smaller frame like yours. They lash out at you to make themselves feel better. You are wonderful and inspiring. Please don't listen to a word those people say. They need therapy and prayers.
I am a 64 year old Londoner and I have literally just found you this afternoon. Can I say you have cheered me up no end with your style tips and common sense approach. Carry on the good work Marie-Anne and ignore the rudeness of others, it’s their loss and I need you!😊🥂
@@sharonkay8638 TY. You have the entire back catalogue ahead of you to catch up on. I remember that joy and perusing the videos and savoring them, as I took notes, truly priceless trove of information and a companionship of sorts. Merci, Marie-Anne.
Some people like being “trolls”. They will never be chic because they are not first gracious & kind. Talking about them is a waste of time & energy. I love your channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge to guide us. When you look good, you feel good & with that kind of self confidence, you present yourself differently & your life changes accordingly. Thank you Marie Anne for taking the time to help those of us who appreciate it.
I am from Brazil and people are taught to express themselves freely and this can be really embarrassing but I am shocked and furious that people from different nationalities feel they have the right to judge a wonderful person who teaches so much about style and elegance. You are my inspiration when I plan what to wear and how to behave. You can be positive that people who judge your great content is a terrible case of sour grapes.
They're so miserable they took time out of their one precious life to spread negativity. Meanwhile, you're changing the world helping people feel better. Thank you for everything you do!
Chère Marie-Anne, I’m not a woman, but a middle aged man, and I still learn something and enjoy your presentations. I’ve been able to adapt your advice for myself and reflect on my own style in light of what you say. I really feel sorry that some people cannot appreciate you for the beautiful person you are. Glad you have your wry sense of humour and common sense to laugh off the nonsense. Bon courage!
I’m sorry but I laughed out loud at this whole video 😂. These derogatory comments are so outlandish that they’re funny. You are such a classy and elegant women I find it hard to believe anyone could come up with these thoughts. I trust your style suggestions and have been shopping with you in mind. Thank you so much for making these videos, there are a great deal of us who love you.
Several years ago I decided, as a mature woman, that one of my goals was to look every day like I had “whole act together.” Your channel is part of that goal. I get many positive comments about my clothes, hair, and makeup. Please keep doing what you do, it is well appreciated.
Unfortunately, insecure and miserable people can manifest their ugliness to beautiful and genuine people like you, Marie-Anne. Keep up the great work because you’re making a big difference.
You are the epitome of femininity, a role model to me and I’m grateful for all the generous insights and advice you’ve shared over the years. It’s such a shame you have to see those posts and endure the abuse. I know you won’t let the bxxxx’s get you down. Rock on Marie-Anne! 💃🎉🙏🇨🇦
Dear Marie-Anne, these comments are obviously posted by jealous people. You are the epitome of a classy, good-looking, modern, mature woman and you always do your utmost to educate and help us, for which we are very grateful. Don’t let these scandalous comments get to you: it’s just sour grapes!
J’aime regarder vos vidéos sur U Tube, je vous trouve élégante et distinguée… Parfois dans la vie on rencontre des gens qui sont méchants, pas seulement avec une seule personne mais avec tout le monde …ils sont comme ça parce que ou bien ils ne s’aiment pas et ne s’acceptent pas ou bien ils sont jaloux… Vaut mieux s’éloigner de ces gens …
It’s apparent the negative commenters were never taught “if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything.”you have style, class and a great sense of humor. Three reasons so many love and enjoy your posts. Rock on!
I love how you address negativity and just move on. I love everything about you I love your minimal makeup, I love that your style is more trousers, not dresses and skirts. I am the same way! I especially love your voice and your accent! Do not change anything :-)
You are such a gracious, intelligent, beautiful woman. It’s hard to believe that people have not been taught to not say anything, if they cannot say something positive about another person they don’t even know. I think you are wonderful and the kind of role model the world needs right now. Thanks for all you do ❤️🌹
Oh, Marie-Anne, I'm so thankful that my mom and my aunts taught me to laugh, not only at myself, but at the ridiculousness of people in general. These ridiculous and rude comments made me laugh out loud. I encourage you to not take any of them seriously, even if their authors meant for you to do so. You're the best and I love that you exude so much joy. I laugh every time I watch one of your videos, and I'm sure that their are many viewers like me. Laughter and joy are wonderful gifts that YOU bring into a rather dark world. Thank you, my friend.
Thank you, Marie! I am a middle aged woman who found you on RUclips a couple of weeks ago. I have cerebral palsy and I am also very short. As the years progressed, I became lazy over time with respect to my style. I found it very hard to find things that I could wear when I would walk into stores. Your RUclips videos have changed my perspective. By following your simple tips and advice, I am actually starting to look forward to try new styles, colors, and materials. I’ve always loved classic styles and disliked trendy fashion, such as ripped jeans and oversized sweaters. Shopping made me anxious and I would typically end up not purchasing anything or buying the wrong thing (using dressing rooms in shops are difficult, so I generally just have to guess before I decide to purchase or not). I am sorry that some people make rude comments (I understand). Just know that there are more of us out there who appreciate your knowledge and expertise. Thank you and God bless you!
Oh my goodness! I am so sorry!! There are so many people that just like to be ugly, unfortunately. Those that matter don't need an explanation. I actually love your style, I am American but have a heavy French background in my heritage. You have helped numerous people. Don't worry about those few who are just set out to hurt & be ugly.
I'm sorry that you have received these stupid comments. They are obviously posted by idiots. I love your videos and have implemented many of your suggestions. Keep up the good work!!
I have recently discovered your channel and have enjoyed binge watching! I’m so sorry about the rude comments! I don’t understand why some people feel the need to be so ugly! You, on the other hand are elegant and classy-two qualities that are becoming extinct here in the US. Thank you for your content!
One of the many things I love about you is that you’re authentic and encourage others to embrace their uniqueness, while guiding those who may have gotten lost along the way fashion wise. Class, grace, elegance, and individuality never go out of style, and you’re the perfect example of all those amazing qualities.
Marie-Anne, I don’t often make comments on you tube, but I want to take a moment and tell you how much I value you and your content. Thank you so much for the hours you put in to preparing, shooting, editing, and responding to viewers of your videos. I enjoy your expertise, your sense of style, your gentle humor, your passion to help the world be a more beautiful place by giving us the tools we need to present ourselves in ways that highlight our most positive features. You’ve got a new sub! I look forward to many many more interesting and timely videos from you. Sending you love from the US.
I am mortified! My apologies for all of the classless, rude, untrue, and hurtful comments that these individuals have left! I am glad that you put this on video it’s a representation of your true professionalism and leadership ! ❤
I am absolutely appalled at the negative comments you’ve received. I recently found your channel, and have been very inspired by the guidance you provide. I’m getting ready to head to Spain, France, Corsica and Italy in September and have been building a capsule wardrobe based in large part on what I have learned in your videos. Your fantastic!
It has been a smart move to address this issue directly and publicly. We all know that sooner or later a coward is going to spew vitriol and it is empowering to be invited to join you in throwing off that energy. I will add my voice to the others in thanking you for doing what you do to help all us ladies. I admire your self-confidence and conviction that you have something to share. Oh, and by the way, my new red lipstick is a smash! I tell people who comment, favourably, on my new look, that I have no intention on becoming invisible as I become an elder! Love from Canada.
I can't help but like you for your honesty on what cruel, ignorant and probably unhappy people have to say. IGNORE THEM. I always say, "What others think of me is none of my business." I am sorry for their meanness. I find you classy and elegant, honest and real. I subscribed today and i can't wait for your next video!!! :)
I wish RUclips had a “love” button option! Thank you for letting us laugh with you at these rude and moronic peoples comments! Keep doing YOU! You’re chic and sophisticated and I adore your channel! 😘
I have recently come across Marie Anne’s channel and yes I am hooked!! I love your accent Marie Anne. You always look great in your videos. Thank you for sharing your style advice. Please please don’t let these morons get you down.
Oh heavens above, Marie-Anne how hideous those comments are. How unattractive those people are. Your ‘style’ is so classic and reminds me of my mother’s style; so classy. You helped me see that. My twin sister is more the pants and jeans version and I’m more skirt and dresses. Thanks for your honesty as you travel through your body’s changes, inspiring us to accept our life and be grateful for the years we get to experience and approach them in a stylish, classy way.
A person who makes comments like that is deeply unhappy, disturbed and merely seeking a target for their aggression. Most likely they are powerless in life and full of rage. It says everything about them and nothing about you. You’re fabulous and I’ve learned an incredible amount from your channel.
Marie-Anne, I am so disappointed that people who are cowards, hiding behind their anonymity, can be so mean spirited and cruel. I have learned so much about style and etiquette from your channel and I have 2 of your books on my shelf. I think you are the most stylish, elegant, gracious and authentic person. Your videos are like having a cup of tea and a chat with a close friend and your sense of humour always shines through. Please pay no attention to these ignorant people.
I don’t think I can finish this video. Marie-Anne, your fans LOVE you! You are authentic, witty, and charming. That is what has the haters twisted up. Your style is fabulous and NOT manly. When I can’t think of what to wear, I ask myself, “what would Marie-Anne wear?” Your hair is tres adorable! Your simplistic, but feminine, makeup is an inspiration to this American woman that I don’t have to hide behind a mask of various cosmetics. You inspire me to be the best version of myself. You are perfect just as you are. Please keep pushing us to be chic! Now I am going to finish the video so I don’t mess up your metrics. Hugs to you! 💕
Wow! Unbelievable! It’s so easy for people to be mean when they aren’t accountable and can hide. You are one of the most stylish and elegant woman that I have ever seen. You are so helpful to women of all shapes and sizes. Keep up the good work - you are such an inspiration to me! I love watching you and your husband working together. Such a lovely couple! ❤️
My daughter watched your videos before her trip to France. The comment made to her most often was "you do not look like an American tourist, I thought you were French". I can assure you it was not her command of the French language. A lady is a lady in any country. I am 70 and my daughter is 30, good taste does necessarily have an age.
I agree with many, you have inspired and have helped so many improve their style and self esteem. You look great and represent your role perfectly. The more we ignore those that insult and not react which is what they want, they’ll move on, be blocked or are left to see themselves and their own character.
This is the big downside to the web: an opportunity for wounded people to lash out and try to bring others down. Blocking is a good idea! Your channel has been steadily growing for good reason... you have much to offer in the way of elegant presentation and you are a beautiful and shining example! Keep doing what you’re doing, Marie-Anne. Block the trolls and don’t give them any more attention. And by the way, your new hair style is very chic!! 😍❤️
Most people, if they’re not interested in the content, would just pass it by. Some people are looking for a reason to be angry. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of that going around. Maybe it’s always there, but now people are able to vent their frustration, even if venting doesn’t fix anything.
Dear Marie-Anne, I applaud you for having the grace to even address these comments. As you went through them I kept getting visuals of unhappy, dissatisfied and angry individuals who are hurting for whatever reasons and lashing out at people such as yourself who have a presence on social media. I have watched so many of your videos and found them informative and helpful. You're stylish and chic. As you explain your choices and the pros and cons of fashion pieces your caring nature shines through. You're a lovely woman, keep on doing what you're doing! It's much appreciated.
As awful as these comments are Marie-Anne, you just need a sense of humor and a tough skin. It's happened to me and I am sure, other people commenting here as well. I don't mean to make light of the situation. There are some unhappy, miserable people out there who cannot stand to see happy and successful people. ❤
Dear Marie-Anne, such shocking and rude comments indeed! I am recovering from cancer, thankfully all clear now. The effects of the treatment has taken its toll on me and I had somewhat lost my mojo until 2 weeks ago when I found your channel! Thank you so much for all your help in making me want to care about myself again. I have thrown out the majority of my garments/footwear and replaced with some quality pieces found in thrift stores....and now I am a new and improved version of self. I have never felt so stylishly comfortable as I do now. This is all because of you and your guidance. So take heart and be encouraged as you are a bright shining light in my dark world of frumpy! X 😊
You’re a beautiful, classy woman, and I adore your subtle sense of humor! The internet makes it easy for people to make mean comments with full anonymity, but I do believe the good far outweighs the bad. Keep up the good work. You have a devoted follower in me.
Really yelped at the "phony accent"! My husband is an opera singer and born and brought up in Austria. When he sang the role of Ochs (Rosenkavalier- set in Vienna), a German critic complained of his fake Austrian accent😂- we had a good laugh, and I'm glad to see so do you! I find you smart, beautiful, witty and thoroughly inspirational!💝
Ive just come accross your videos and love your humour, generosity and style. These unpleasant commentators are saying a lot about themselves, not you. You are such an inspiration and have great suggestions for us more mature girls. 🥰
I had an art teacher whose favorite saying was "Just because you can doesn't mean you should." And my father used to advise me to "Look for the sad behind the mad". People can be so rude when they are frustrated or hurt or unhappy with themselves. The size of your following should reassure you that your words and advice are well received. I always look forward to hearing what you have to say, and like anything, no one is going to agree all the time. I see your channel as kind of a video letter from a distant friend, sort of a fashion pen-pal, one who is honest but kind. I find that people often comment or criticize things that are touch point for their own self-concept. Carry on with your work. Your videos are fun and challenging, and honest. What else can you ask for?
I am horrified that people would write such things. You inspire me on a daily basis. I live and work on a ranch, I am over 60 and full figured. I had not "given up", but was not devoting much thought to my appearance. I am now- thanks to YOU! I love watching you try on different shoes or put a scarf with an outfit. The joy you feel comes right through the screen. Please block and ignore those naughty comments. KNOW you are making a difference 💕
I love watching your videos and am in agreeance with your style advice. It's sad that there are people that feel the need to be rude and nasty, if they don't like your stuff they should just turn off. Keep up the good work.
Bonjour. I’m so sorry you had to encounter such ignorant people. Personally, I love your style. You have inspired me to embrace my French roots. Thank you for creating this channel and having such a positive attitude. Have a beautiful day. ✌🏻💖🇫🇷
I'm appalled, and yet I am not, that people would make such miserable remarks to such a lovely, classy lady as yourself. Some people are truly miserable in this world and I feel so sorry for them. I absolutely LOVE your videos and the obvious fun you have making them. I appreciate you sharing the "not so fun side" of being a RUclipsr. Just know that those people are miserable and would never say such things to your lovely face. Not everyone knows how to properly conduct themselves when faced with confidence and elegance. I aspire to be confident and elegant, not attempt to harm someone who is.
I am so very sorry to hear this, Marie-Anne. You are such an inspiration for so many and a source of practical advice producing positive change in people's lives - as well as always being a joy to watch! If you can, please put these unkind comments from your mind. With very good wishes and prayers. Xx
This saddens me because you are doing such a great job and share such valuable content. I hope it helps you to know that there are 100's if not 1,000's of us who love your content compared to the few nasty ones. Wishing you all the best - please continue to help us "up our game"! (I know I will take all the help I can get!)
You are amazing and I’m loving your Chanel and fun style 💕It’s so unfortunate that wounded people wound others - it’s a baseline and out of the heart come the issues of life. Hopefully they will seek counselling, forgiveness and self-improvement.
Dear Marie-Anne, you are helping me to appreciate beauty and style in a way I never did before. This life is so precious and short, so why not go through it feeling as beautiful, elegant, and confident as we can? That is what you are teaching me, and for that I am truly grateful for you and your enriching work.
OMG… these comments are ridiculous. You are fabulous! I learned to dress appropriately by my lovely Aunt Monique. I grew up in a small village in North America. All the women took great care to dress beautifully and put on their makeup every day. On Saturday, the two hair salons were packed! This is a point of pride for all women regardless of height, shape, hair texture, etc…! Note: the village had and still has a population of 2,000. I read your book and enjoyed it. These negative comments are NOT warranted. I am grateful to you and your channel. Very informative in many ways. Merci!
Ok, I am horrified by these comments; but, the "phony French accent" comment made me almost choke on my coffee! How can someone be so rude and stupid? Marie-Anne, I just turned 50. I've been watching your videos for quite some time and I can honestly say that you have helped me embrace my age with sass and sophistication. I've learned that my personal style is tailored with an artsy edge. I'm even planning my Fall 2022 capsule wardrobe thanks to you and Justine Leconte (who taught me about undertones and colors)! I'm on the hunt for a deep, chocolate brown tweed blazer and well-constructed trouser cut jeans. Merci beaucoup!
Absolutely block these people! You are protecting not only yourself, but your followers as well. Thank you for blocking them! You are amazing and beautiful and I am so grateful for you and your channel. I am over 50 and I have the same hair problems. Even if you shut off your comments entirely, I will still watch your channel. Do what you need to do to protect your mental health, we love you!! Sincerely, a long time subscriber 🙂❤️
What?! 😳😡 I don’t understand why some people want to intentionally hurt others. They would obviously never say that in front of you. Please never feel bad, you are an amazing woman Marie-Anne!
Marie Anne in a few days I will be 68 and proud of it. I found your channel and I am learning and gradually changing a few things at a time. Keep up your great advice for us who appreciate it and trash those comments. 😊
Marie-Anne, when RUclips first suggested your videos, I thought, "That woman looks like my type!". I watched and realized you were promoting the kind of style that suits me and my life perfectly (except for the colors!). If I wanted flowers, ruffles, lace, and flounces I would not be interested in "chic". I watch all your videos and you have helped me narrow down my wardrobe to what is best for me.
There are a lot of men that objectify and sexualize women and are used to the underdressed, overmakedup instagram image of a woman. The one that is sexy, but not "chic". That's their problem. We, your community love your videos and your style. That's why we're here, and I am grateful for the style lessons you are sharing. Focus on the positivity and ignore the meanies out there. Hating isn't chic.
True, I can’t count how many men have told me they are looking for “Victoria’s Secret Angels”, then don’t look at me! I don’t dress to titillate men, we’re not sex objects.
The comment about your "phoney" French accent was the best laugh I've had today. I love your style and you're giving me (a short apple-shaped middle-aged woman) hope that I have hope for style beyond large t-shirts and jeans. Also, the new hairstyle you are sporting in the video is fun and suits you. Thanks for your videos!
Marie-Anne, this makes me so sad that people would say these mean, rude things to you in the comments section. What a bunch of jerks! These people are insecure, unconfident, and unsuccessful in life and lash out at the confident ones. Ignore the jerks and block them! I like your videos so much! You have a great personality and I’ve learned a lot from you. Keep up the good work!
@@marilynndesilva7620 Yes, they delight in upsetting others. Very evil. There are sociopaths in the world, and there is no cure. They like being evil. Ms. Marie-Anne does a great service to us all by donating her time and energy in making the productions, and I am grateful for the free service which showcases her wisdom and talent. If someone finds fault with this, then he/she is twisted and sick.
Wow, I am shocked. No matter how hard we all try comments like this can hurt. Fortunately, you have so many of us who love your style and love your look and tune into your videos to learn how to "be elegant!". An elegant woman would never say those things and she would also not respond. I hope you are having a wonderful day. I think you are fabulous!!!
I've learnt that when people say hateful, abusive things to you, it's always THEIR inner turmoil and anger. It's like you put a mirror up to them. Keep doing what you do, Marie-Anne. I love your style and humour.
Whilst I would like to say that I can’t believe how rude people can be …I find that there are sadly people who have NO IDEA about common decency. Well done for this video. Keep going MA. Sincere and well grounded people are behind you. ❤️
I'm so glad to see that you are still able to laugh at some of these comments. It just proves that you are a truly beautiful and polished woman, far above such worthless criticism. Thank you for the high quality advice and very balanced opinions that you share with us for free. Much love 🌿💕
Pay no attention to these disgusting comments. I watch you and always marvel at your class and elegance. You are always so well turned out. Stunning and Sassy is how I think of you. I could watch your presentations all day long if I had the time. Keep on shining, you are appreciated!!
That is so sad Marie-Anne, but these are people who get a sense of important by being obnoxious and rude to someone they can't possibly compare too. What are they doing even bothering to look at your site. You are truly a classy lady!
Marie-Anne, Don't let the comments bother you. When people are rude, it really says a lot about them. Please don't let these trolls get you down; You are beautiful, warm, stylish, chic and an amazing person! I appreciate the wonderful lessons you have taught, and continue to teach us. Thank you!
I love your responses, Marie-Anne Lecoeur! I don't even need to defend you because you don't need defending. What I like about your videos: 1. Content is relatable and wholesome; 2. The presentation is excellent, easy to follow and your sense of humour is enjoyable; 3. Your style is classy; 4. Advice is realistic and doable in any country; 5. The cameos of the husband add to the down-to-earth atmosphere. Love it, in Canada.
I’m sorry to hear about those rude, negative comments. It actually reflects on them. You are so tasteful, elegant, genuine and chic that the best thing to do is to ignore any comments that you know doesn’t come from your community, your followers, the ones that appreciate your advice, like myself ❤️
I am so sorry to hear of the terrible things people are writing. I am a recent subscriber and am so pleased to have found your channel. You have inspired me to go through my closet and think of myself in a different light. Many thanks for your wonderful tips and insights. You have truly inspired and motivated me to look chic.
My mouth dropped open at some of the rude comments you’d received! 😮 Seriously?! Anyone else familiar with being brought up with “if you can’t say anything nice, say nothing?!” I’m surmising those are a minority of comments you receive, Marie-Anne! As they should be 💞 You are authentic, classy and well-spoken! Throw in your sassy sense of humor and it’s clear why we value & care for you! 🥰
Thank you, Marie-Anne, for responding to these shocking and rude comments with elegance and without vulgarity. Almost three years ago I started watching your channel and soon after subscribed. I was trying to figure out how to style my body in a way that reflected how I felt inside. I did not feel old (I was 60 years old at the time) and frumpy, but I was dressing that way after retiring from a profession that required career clothes. You helped me to gain confidence in how to dress my body shape, add color, and use my career clothes in a more casual way. Of course, I do not dress exactly like you, but I dress exactly like me! About two years ago I began receiving compliments from strangers. Your advice was spot on in the changes I needed in my style. I just wanted to say I appreciate both of your channels. This is the first time I have left a comment on any of the RUclips channels I watch.
I am both sickened and saddened by people who have made such mean spirited comments to you. I think you're wonderful and I'm so happy to have found you. Thank you for your wisdom and for sharing your time and talent with all of us❤🥰
Good for you for confronting the trolls head on. I liked the way you searched for a reason and dismissed those comments as unfounded. Hats off to you for protecting yourself against these toxic comments with style and grace.
Insults say much more about the person who says them than about their target! My philosophy has always been: offense is something that is taken, not given. It's impossible to be insulted against your own will.
It's appalling how rude people can be! I think some people just want to ruin people's days for no reason in particular. I just discovered you and your videos and I'm so excited at the age of 65 to up my style as I am an actress and singer in my community. I love your look, your beautiful fair skin and your bold, red lipstick! Your style is sleek and comfortable and that's exactly what works for me. Thank you for being you!
Oh my gosh! Rudeness and mean spirited is a nasty thing in society that makes people feel they can say and do anything. How very wrong they are and what a sad life. I'm sorry to hear that you've been on the receiving end. You're a class act Marie Anne, onward and upward ❤
I love her style advice! We are not all the same and some of us feel more comfortable in classic designed clothes and therefore gravitate towards channels that suit our taste; it’s why I enjoy Marie-Anne’s advice. I also am in awe of her bright personality and cheerful, happy disposition; which makes her videos so easy to watch. Style is not just about how you dress, it’s about how you treat people, and rude comments just show you are bereft of the kind of style that attracts others. Perhaps it could also mean that you are a very unhappy person and therefore need pity.
I'm a bit late to the party, but just wanted to congratulate you on handling these shocking comments with grace and humour. Love your channel, love your advise and love your style. Thank you.
Ahhhh Marie-Anne, When you “put yourself out there” in Social media (or anywhere really), mean people are going to cross your path unfortunately. And even tho you are an elegant, sensible, beautiful lady, I am sure it can sting the soul sometimes. But most all of us viewers adore and appreciate you. Thank you for making great content despite those commenters poor judgement. It most likely reflects what goes on in their own hearts/minds and possibly how they were treated or maybe they are bored and troll you-tube creators bc they have not much else to do. Too bad for them. With love and hellos from across the sea ~M
I can never understand why people are so mean. They show their true colors which aren’t pretty. I love your videos Marie-Anne Lecoeur! Keep them coming! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Marie-Anne, I just discovered your channel and I love it! I love your chats, your style advice and even if I don't agree with everything or would wear it. I recommend your Channel to others. You need to take these comments and realize where it comes from. Unfortunately we live in a crazy world where a large chunk of the population have no class / style/morals/values/common sense/critical thinking. Sad but true. Their comments only reflect them and actually has nothing to do with you / truth. Please shake it off and keep on doing what you love. I and many others enjoy you! Thank you! ❤
How pathetic these people are. What sad, limited lives they must lead. Their comments are generated from their ignorance and their dissatisfaction with themselves. Take no notice! You are providing great content in a most enjoyable, authentic manner.
I love how you’re amused with all these fools, Marie-Anne. And I know you don’t take it personally. YOU know who you are. And that’s all that matters. And I love your new, fun hairstyle.
I'm shocked! I'm so sorry you've been treated so badly! People who make these remarks are rude, inconsiderate, and narrow minded. No imagination at all. Remember that you don't have to explain yourself to anyone. You are loved and appreciated! You are kind and elegant!
I am so shocked by the comments. People hide behind the anonymity of the internet and write things that they would never say in person. I hope you don’t let those comments get to you because they do not represent the majority of us who follow you. Your response to the comments is very gracious. ❤️
Oh my word! Please don’t give any of those remarks a second thought. It’s horrible that the only thing in their sad lives are negative thoughts and actions. I love your fresh ideas and so glad you are not like everyone else! Marie
Despite your disdain for Birkenstocks (lol), as a woman in my early 50s, I enjoy watching your channel and getting style recommendations. I don't follow every tip, but I incorporate some, as is my choice. Keep doing your thing, Marie-Anne, et bonne chance avec les "trolls!" ❤️
You are such a lovely person and always respectful to others. Such grace with their comments. I would not be able to endure the complaints and insults today’s people lash out. Please don’t ever let them make you cry. You have more style and grace in your little finger than they can ever comprehend. Faithful follower.
I cannot believe people feel the need to be destructive in their comments rather than constructive. This speaks more about them than you. Keep doing what you're doing, we think you're awesome!
There are so many sad haters out there, take no notice, you are absolutely fabulous!!
I admire your style tremendously.
Your presentation is open and honest and so generous in your advice
Please don't defend yourself ....ignore these sad individuals
I can't believe people would be so cruel to you Marie-Anne! These comments say more about the person writing them than they do about you, it's their stuff - not yours. It's easy for people to hide behind a computer and spout hate and criticism. As ever you are so gracious, and that's commendable. Your true French Chic Ladies all adore you! And what I personally like, is how genuine you are and how you take the time to interact with your audience, replying to comments etc. Much love 😘
Thank you so much for all of the likes 😊
Nicely put Courtney, I couldn't have said it better.
Here, here! I completely agree with you. Honestly, these negative, nasty comments sadly come with the territory of having any internet presence. I don't make any content, I merely comment on videos and have been called every name in the book. I pity the poor souls who must be so miserable that they treat others this way. Marie-Anne, brush off these comments and continue to make amazing content for us. For ever one "hater", there are a thousand fans ready to defend you. Bon jour!
Sadly the anonymity online brings the mean girls out. Nobody would dare say this stuff to your face.
Yeah exactly Courtney
I love Marie-Anne, I’ve been listening and taking her advice for 3 years now, she really cares for others and it shows in every single video.
@@iss8504 It could be an obnoxious troll. But it's so nice to see others rallying around Marie-Anne.
I'm 67, losing weight, and have "graduated" from dressing frumpy to wanting to change my clothing habits as I need to find new garments anyway. Your videos have given me plenty of ideas and help format my new wardrobe as I switch from piece to piece. You have a gift for helping women to know that there is no "too fat", "too old", or "ugly" for a woman to want to look her best. Thank you for your videos, Marie-Anne!
I’m 72, lost weight, and have gone from 2xl to 12/14 . Marie Anne has saved me so much money from purchase mistakes, and has elevated my style from flabby frump, to trim chic! I bought thrift, consignment pieces while losing. A few are still my faves. Best wishes!
I'm in the same boat and have found Marie-Anne's ideas very useful. It is hard to know which way to go when years-old habits must be abandoned.
Those comments have nothing to do with you and everything to do with them. There is NOTHING wrong with your hair. Some people would love to dress better but feel that they don't look good because of their size or shape. They get jealous of people with a smaller frame like yours. They lash out at you to make themselves feel better. You are wonderful and inspiring. Please don't listen to a word those people say. They need therapy and prayers.
Well said, I totally agree.
SAN FRANCISCO
WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREES!
Spot on! They are projecting and it is sad for them.
My dear, you are a class act with impeccable taste. Don't enpower the haters to get to you. 🥰
Jealousy is a sad thing. Ignore them they are too sad for words.
🙏
I am a 64 year old Londoner and I have literally just found you this afternoon. Can I say you have cheered me up no end with your style tips and common sense approach.
Carry on the good work Marie-Anne and ignore the rudeness of others, it’s their loss and I need you!😊🥂
Welcome! I've been following for a couple years now. She is fabulous!
Great comment Sharon❣️
@@lindafry8015 thanks, I’m so happy I found you all!
@@gretchensmith3981 thank you. What a friendly group this is.😊
@@sharonkay8638 TY. You have the entire back catalogue ahead of you to catch up on. I remember that joy and perusing the videos and savoring them, as I took notes, truly priceless trove of information and a companionship of sorts. Merci, Marie-Anne.
Some people like being “trolls”. They will never be chic because they are not first gracious & kind. Talking about them is a waste of time & energy. I love your channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge to guide us. When you look good, you feel good & with that kind of self confidence, you present yourself differently & your life changes accordingly. Thank you Marie Anne for taking the time to help those of us who appreciate it.
I am from Brazil and people are taught to express themselves freely and this can be really embarrassing but I am shocked and furious that people from different nationalities feel they have the right to judge a wonderful person who teaches so much about style and elegance. You are my inspiration when I plan what to wear and how to behave. You can be positive that people who judge your great content is a terrible case of sour grapes.
They're so miserable they took time out of their one precious life to spread negativity. Meanwhile, you're changing the world helping people feel better. Thank you for everything you do!
Pusheen forever !
Chère Marie-Anne, I’m not a woman, but a middle aged man, and I still learn something and enjoy your presentations. I’ve been able to adapt your advice for myself and reflect on my own style in light of what you say. I really feel sorry that some people cannot appreciate you for the beautiful person you are. Glad you have your wry sense of humour and common sense to laugh off the nonsense. Bon courage!
I too use her advice when helping my hubby. That's awesome that you do this as well!
You are even elegant in responding to rude, ignorant people. I love your sense of humor.
I’m sorry but I laughed out loud at this whole video 😂. These derogatory comments are so outlandish that they’re funny. You are such a classy and elegant women I find it hard to believe anyone could come up with these thoughts. I trust your style suggestions and have been shopping with you in mind. Thank you so much for making these videos, there are a great deal of us who love you.
Me too!😂 I went from dropping my jaw in shock at the beginning of the video to laughing out loud because the comments were so ridiculous.
Well said, Kate. I agree completely!
I think Mary- Anne should turn those comments into a standup comedy and make some money out of it.
@@tanyamanya4012
My suggestion...
After having laughed in disbelief over these strange comments,...
we all should forget about them.
:-))
@@tanyamanya4012 Ohmigosh, that is brilliant! Fake Frenchwoman In Drag. : )
Several years ago I decided, as a mature woman, that one of my goals was to look every day like I had “whole act together.” Your channel is part of that goal. I get many positive comments about my clothes, hair, and makeup. Please keep doing what you do, it is well appreciated.
Unfortunately, insecure and miserable people can manifest their ugliness to beautiful and genuine people like you, Marie-Anne. Keep up the great work because you’re making a big difference.
You are the epitome of femininity, a role model to me and I’m grateful for all the generous insights and advice you’ve shared over the years. It’s such a shame you have to see those posts and endure the abuse. I know you won’t let the bxxxx’s get you down. Rock on Marie-Anne! 💃🎉🙏🇨🇦
I'm so sorry people leave such ugly comments for you! You are the chic-est of chic!
Some people are so jealous of women who are slim! It is diet and exercise! You don’t get to be thin over 50 without effort. 😂
Dear Marie-Anne, these comments are obviously posted by jealous people.
You are the epitome of a classy, good-looking, modern, mature woman and you always do your utmost to educate and help us, for which we are very grateful.
Don’t let these scandalous comments get to you: it’s just sour grapes!
J’aime regarder vos vidéos sur U Tube, je vous trouve élégante et distinguée…
Parfois dans la vie on rencontre des gens qui sont méchants, pas seulement avec une seule personne mais avec tout le monde …ils sont comme ça parce que ou bien ils ne s’aiment pas et ne s’acceptent pas ou bien ils sont jaloux…
Vaut mieux s’éloigner de ces gens …
Exact, Anne-Marie...
It’s apparent the negative commenters were never taught “if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything.”you have style, class and a great sense of humor. Three reasons so many love and enjoy your posts. Rock on!
She is the best...!!!
She is the Best
I thank you for t
I thank you for telling about how French woman dresses. Hope you will continue with your videos. Bless you.
@@thianlingthianling4716 stay as sweet as you are
I love how you address negativity and just move on. I love everything about you I love your minimal makeup, I love that your style is more trousers, not dresses and skirts. I am the same way! I especially love your voice and your accent! Do not change anything :-)
You are such a gracious, intelligent, beautiful woman. It’s hard to believe that people have not been taught to not say anything, if they cannot say something positive about another person they don’t even know. I think you are wonderful and the kind of role model the world needs right now. Thanks for all you do ❤️🌹
absolutely,
I wouldn't be surprised if it were men saying it!
I'm certain they cannot even speak French! xx
Oh, Marie-Anne, I'm so thankful that my mom and my aunts taught me to laugh, not only at myself, but at the ridiculousness of people in general. These ridiculous and rude comments made me laugh out loud. I encourage you to not take any of them seriously, even if their authors meant for you to do so. You're the best and I love that you exude so much joy. I laugh every time I watch one of your videos, and I'm sure that their are many viewers like me. Laughter and joy are wonderful gifts that YOU bring into a rather dark world. Thank you, my friend.
SimplyCJ: Thank you for your post.
Thank you, Marie! I am a middle aged woman who found you on RUclips a couple of weeks ago. I have cerebral palsy and I am also very short. As the years progressed, I became lazy over time with respect to my style. I found it very hard to find things that I could wear when I would walk into stores. Your RUclips videos have changed my perspective. By following your simple tips and advice, I am actually starting to look forward to try new styles, colors, and materials. I’ve always loved classic styles and disliked trendy fashion, such as ripped jeans and oversized sweaters. Shopping made me anxious and I would typically end up not purchasing anything or buying the wrong thing (using dressing rooms in shops are difficult, so I generally just have to guess before I decide to purchase or not). I am sorry that some people make rude comments (I understand). Just know that there are more of us out there who appreciate your knowledge and expertise. Thank you and God bless you!
Found you recently and love watching you and taking your tips! Don’t listen to the haters!
Oh my goodness! I am so sorry!! There are so many people that just like to be ugly, unfortunately. Those that matter don't need an explanation. I actually love your style, I am American but have a heavy French background in my heritage. You have helped numerous people. Don't worry about those few who are just set out to hurt & be ugly.
I'm sorry that you have received these stupid comments. They are obviously posted by idiots. I love your videos and have implemented many of your suggestions. Keep up the good work!!
I have recently discovered your channel and have enjoyed binge watching! I’m so sorry about the rude comments! I don’t understand why some people feel the need to be so ugly! You, on the other hand are elegant and classy-two qualities that are becoming extinct here in the US. Thank you for your content!
One of the many things I love about you is that you’re authentic and encourage others to embrace their uniqueness, while guiding those who may have gotten lost along the way fashion wise. Class, grace, elegance, and individuality never go out of style, and you’re the perfect example of all those amazing qualities.
Marie-Anne, I don’t often make comments on you tube, but I want to take a moment and tell you how much I value you and your content. Thank you so much for the hours you put in to preparing, shooting, editing, and responding to viewers of your videos. I enjoy your expertise, your sense of style, your gentle humor, your passion to help the world be a more beautiful place by giving us the tools we need to present ourselves in ways that highlight our most positive features. You’ve got a new sub! I look forward to many many more interesting and timely videos from you. Sending you love from the US.
:-))
I am mortified! My apologies for all of the classless, rude, untrue, and hurtful comments that these individuals have left! I am glad that you put this on video it’s a representation of your true professionalism and leadership ! ❤
I am absolutely appalled at the negative comments you’ve received. I recently found your channel, and have been very inspired by the guidance you provide. I’m getting ready to head to Spain, France, Corsica and Italy in September and have been building a capsule wardrobe based in large part on what I have learned in your videos. Your fantastic!
It has been a smart move to address this issue directly and publicly. We all know that sooner or later a coward is going to spew vitriol and it is empowering to be invited to join you in throwing off that energy. I will add my voice to the others in thanking you for doing what you do to help all us ladies. I admire your self-confidence and conviction that you have something to share. Oh, and by the way, my new red lipstick is a smash! I tell people who comment, favourably, on my new look, that I have no intention on becoming invisible as I become an elder! Love from Canada.
I can't help but like you for your honesty on what cruel, ignorant and probably unhappy people have to say. IGNORE THEM. I always say, "What others think of me is none of my business." I am sorry for their meanness. I find you classy and elegant, honest and real. I subscribed today and i can't wait for your next video!!! :)
I wish RUclips had a “love” button option! Thank you for letting us laugh with you at these rude and moronic peoples comments! Keep doing YOU! You’re chic and sophisticated and I adore your channel! 😘
I have recently come across Marie Anne’s channel and yes I am hooked!! I love your accent Marie Anne. You always look great in your videos. Thank you for sharing your style advice. Please please don’t let these morons get you down.
I wish you tube had a this makes me happy button.
Oh heavens above, Marie-Anne how hideous those comments are. How unattractive those people are. Your ‘style’ is so classic and reminds me of my mother’s style; so classy. You helped me see that. My twin sister is more the pants and jeans version and I’m more skirt and dresses. Thanks for your honesty as you travel through your body’s changes, inspiring us to accept our life and be grateful for the years we get to experience and approach them in a stylish, classy way.
A person who makes comments like that is deeply unhappy, disturbed and merely seeking a target for their aggression. Most likely they are powerless in life and full of rage. It says everything about them and nothing about you. You’re fabulous and I’ve learned an incredible amount from your channel.
Marie-Anne, I am so disappointed that people who are cowards, hiding behind their anonymity, can be so mean spirited and cruel. I have learned so much about style and etiquette from your channel and I have 2 of your books on my shelf. I think you are the most stylish, elegant, gracious and authentic person. Your videos are like having a cup of tea and a chat with a close friend and your sense of humour always shines through. Please pay no attention to these ignorant people.
I don’t think I can finish this video. Marie-Anne, your fans LOVE you! You are authentic, witty, and charming. That is what has the haters twisted up. Your style is fabulous and NOT manly. When I can’t think of what to wear, I ask myself, “what would Marie-Anne wear?” Your hair is tres adorable! Your simplistic, but feminine, makeup is an inspiration to this American woman that I don’t have to hide behind a mask of various cosmetics. You inspire me to be the best version of myself. You are perfect just as you are. Please keep pushing us to be chic! Now I am going to finish the video so I don’t mess up your metrics. Hugs to you! 💕
Wow! Unbelievable! It’s so easy for people to be mean when they aren’t accountable and can hide.
You are one of the most stylish and elegant woman that I have ever seen. You are so helpful to women of all shapes and sizes.
Keep up the good work - you are such an inspiration to me! I love watching you and your husband working together. Such a lovely couple! ❤️
You are classy and fabulous, thanks Marie-Anne!!
My daughter watched your videos before her trip to France. The comment made to her most often was "you do not look like an American tourist, I thought you were French". I can assure you it was not her command of the French language. A lady is a lady in any country. I am 70 and my daughter is 30, good taste does necessarily have an age.
Agreed. And what a lovely comment!
I agree with many, you have inspired and have helped so many improve their style and self esteem. You look great and represent your role perfectly. The more we ignore those that insult and not react which is what they want, they’ll move on, be blocked or are left to see themselves and their own character.
This is the big downside to the web: an opportunity for wounded people to lash out and try to bring others down. Blocking is a good idea! Your channel has been steadily growing for good reason... you have much to offer in the way of elegant presentation and you are a beautiful and shining example! Keep doing what you’re doing, Marie-Anne. Block the trolls and don’t give them any more attention. And by the way, your new hair style is very chic!! 😍❤️
❣
Most people, if they’re not interested in the content, would just pass it by. Some people are looking for a reason to be angry. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of that going around. Maybe it’s always there, but now people are able to vent their frustration, even if venting doesn’t fix anything.
And commenters can help by inviting the hateful to leave.
Dear Marie-Anne, I applaud you for having the grace to even address these comments. As you went through them I kept getting visuals of unhappy, dissatisfied and angry individuals who are hurting for whatever reasons and lashing out at people such as yourself who have a presence on social media. I have watched so many of your videos and found them informative and helpful. You're stylish and chic. As you explain your choices and the pros and cons of fashion pieces your caring nature shines through. You're a lovely woman, keep on doing what you're doing! It's much appreciated.
So well said Kathy Keller.
@@soleil3647 Thank you!
As awful as these comments are Marie-Anne, you just need a sense of humor and a tough skin. It's happened to me and I am sure, other people commenting here as well. I don't mean to make light of the situation. There are some unhappy, miserable people out there who cannot stand to see happy and successful people. ❤
Dear Marie-Anne, such shocking and rude comments indeed!
I am recovering from cancer, thankfully all clear now. The effects of the treatment has taken its toll on me and I had somewhat lost my mojo until 2 weeks ago when I found your channel! Thank you so much for all your help in making me want to care about myself again. I have thrown out the majority of my garments/footwear and replaced with some quality pieces found in thrift stores....and now I am a new and improved version of self. I have never felt so stylishly comfortable as I do now. This is all because of you and your guidance. So take heart and be encouraged as you are a bright shining light in my dark world of frumpy! X
😊
You’re a beautiful, classy woman, and I adore your subtle sense of humor! The internet makes it easy for people to make mean comments with full anonymity, but I do believe the good far outweighs the bad. Keep up the good work. You have a devoted follower in me.
Really yelped at the "phony accent"! My husband is an opera singer and born and brought up in Austria. When he sang the role of Ochs (Rosenkavalier- set in Vienna), a German critic complained of his fake Austrian accent😂- we had a good laugh, and I'm glad to see so do you! I find you smart, beautiful, witty and thoroughly inspirational!💝
Ive just come accross your videos and love your humour, generosity and style. These unpleasant commentators are saying a lot about themselves, not you. You are such an inspiration and have great suggestions for us more mature girls. 🥰
I had an art teacher whose favorite saying was "Just because you can doesn't mean you should." And my father used to advise me to "Look for the sad behind the mad". People can be so rude when they are frustrated or hurt or unhappy with themselves. The size of your following should reassure you that your words and advice are well received. I always look forward to hearing what you have to say, and like anything, no one is going to agree all the time.
I see your channel as kind of a video letter from a distant friend, sort of a fashion pen-pal, one who is honest but kind.
I find that people often comment or criticize things that are touch point for their own self-concept.
Carry on with your work. Your videos are fun and challenging, and honest. What else can you ask for?
..."honest but kind".... Yes. 😊
I am horrified that people would write such things. You inspire me on a daily basis. I live and work on a ranch, I am over 60 and full figured. I had not "given up", but was not devoting much thought to my appearance. I am now- thanks to YOU! I love watching you try on different shoes or put a scarf with an outfit. The joy you feel comes right through the screen. Please block and ignore those naughty comments. KNOW you are making a difference 💕
I love watching your videos and am in agreeance with your style advice. It's sad that there are people that feel the need to be rude and nasty, if they don't like your stuff they should just turn off. Keep up the good work.
Merci for your support Frances 😘
Bonjour. I’m so sorry you had to encounter such ignorant people. Personally, I love your style. You have inspired me to embrace my French roots. Thank you for creating this channel and having such a positive attitude. Have a beautiful day. ✌🏻💖🇫🇷
I found this channel because I was embracing my French roots!
I'm appalled, and yet I am not, that people would make such miserable remarks to such a lovely, classy lady as yourself. Some people are truly miserable in this world and I feel so sorry for them. I absolutely LOVE your videos and the obvious fun you have making them. I appreciate you sharing the "not so fun side" of being a RUclipsr. Just know that those people are miserable and would never say such things to your lovely face. Not everyone knows how to properly conduct themselves when faced with confidence and elegance. I aspire to be confident and elegant, not attempt to harm someone who is.
You are great, and this reply to rude comments is another demonstration of it.
🤗
I am so very sorry to hear this, Marie-Anne. You are such an inspiration for so many and a source of practical advice producing positive change in people's lives - as well as always being a joy to watch! If you can, please put these unkind comments from your mind. With very good wishes and prayers. Xx
This saddens me because you are doing such a great job and share such valuable content. I hope it helps you to know that there are 100's if not 1,000's of us who love your content compared to the few nasty ones. Wishing you all the best - please continue to help us "up our game"! (I know I will take all the help I can get!)
You are amazing and I’m loving your Chanel and fun style 💕It’s so unfortunate that wounded people wound others - it’s a baseline and out of the heart come the issues of life. Hopefully they will seek counselling, forgiveness and self-improvement.
Dear Marie-Anne, you are helping me to appreciate beauty and style in a way I never did before. This life is so precious and short, so why not go through it feeling as beautiful, elegant, and confident as we can? That is what you are teaching me, and for that I am truly grateful for you and your enriching work.
OMG… these comments are ridiculous. You are fabulous! I learned to dress appropriately by my lovely Aunt Monique. I grew up in a small village in North America. All the women took great care to dress beautifully and put on their makeup every day. On Saturday, the two hair salons were packed! This is a point of pride for all women regardless of height, shape, hair texture, etc…! Note: the village had and still has a population of 2,000. I read your book and enjoyed it. These negative comments are NOT warranted. I am grateful to you and your channel. Very informative in many ways. Merci!
Indeed, so pathetic that they are funny
Ok, I am horrified by these comments; but, the "phony French accent" comment made me almost choke on my coffee! How can someone be so rude and stupid? Marie-Anne, I just turned 50. I've been watching your videos for quite some time and I can honestly say that you have helped me embrace my age with sass and sophistication. I've learned that my personal style is tailored with an artsy edge. I'm even planning my Fall 2022 capsule wardrobe thanks to you and Justine Leconte (who taught me about undertones and colors)! I'm on the hunt for a deep, chocolate brown tweed blazer and well-constructed trouser cut jeans. Merci beaucoup!
Absolutely block these people! You are protecting not only yourself, but your followers as well. Thank you for blocking them! You are amazing and beautiful and I am so grateful for you and your channel. I am over 50 and I have the same hair problems. Even if you shut off your comments entirely, I will still watch your channel. Do what you need to do to protect your mental health, we love you!! Sincerely, a long time subscriber 🙂❤️
What?! 😳😡 I don’t understand why some people want to intentionally hurt others. They would obviously never say that in front of you. Please never feel bad, you are an amazing woman Marie-Anne!
Exactly. 👍🧡🌿
Unfortunately, many people say inappropriate remarks to us in-person.
Marie Anne in a few days I will be 68 and proud of it. I found your channel and I am learning and gradually changing a few things at a time. Keep up your great advice for us who appreciate it and trash those comments. 😊
Marie-Anne, when RUclips first suggested your videos, I thought, "That woman looks like my type!". I watched and realized you were promoting the kind of style that suits me and my life perfectly (except for the colors!). If I wanted flowers, ruffles, lace, and flounces I would not be interested in "chic". I watch all your videos and you have helped me narrow down my wardrobe to what is best for me.
There are a lot of men that objectify and sexualize women and are used to the underdressed, overmakedup instagram image of a woman. The one that is sexy, but not "chic". That's their problem. We, your community love your videos and your style. That's why we're here, and I am grateful for the style lessons you are sharing. Focus on the positivity and ignore the meanies out there.
Hating isn't chic.
True, I can’t count how many men have told me they are looking for “Victoria’s Secret Angels”, then don’t look at me! I don’t dress to titillate men, we’re not sex objects.
Very well said
Indeed, "hating isn't chic." Love it!
I really like your hair! 👌😘
@@heidiarvanne646 Yes, Marie-Anne's hair looks modern, flattering, and full. I don't see any thinness to it at all.
The comment about your "phoney" French accent was the best laugh I've had today. I love your style and you're giving me (a short apple-shaped middle-aged woman) hope that I have hope for style beyond large t-shirts and jeans. Also, the new hairstyle you are sporting in the video is fun and suits you. Thanks for your videos!
Marie-Anne, this makes me so sad that people would say these mean, rude things to you in the comments section. What a bunch of jerks! These people are insecure, unconfident, and unsuccessful in life and lash out at the confident ones. Ignore the jerks and block them!
I like your videos so much! You have a great personality and I’ve learned a lot from you. Keep up the good work!
What a bunch of jerks, indeed! Banish them!
It's even worse when these anonymous cowards pick on people with disabilities or who have suffered a tragedy. What miserable persons they must be!
@@marilynndesilva7620 Yes, they delight in upsetting others. Very evil. There are sociopaths in the world, and there is no cure. They like being evil.
Ms. Marie-Anne does a great service to us all by donating her time and energy in making the productions, and I am grateful for the free service which showcases her wisdom and talent. If someone finds fault with this, then he/she is twisted and sick.
Wow, I am shocked. No matter how hard we all try comments like this can hurt. Fortunately, you have so many of us who love your style and love your look and tune into your videos to learn how to "be elegant!". An elegant woman would never say those things and she would also not respond. I hope you are having a wonderful day. I think you are fabulous!!!
I've learnt that when people say hateful, abusive things to you, it's always THEIR inner turmoil and anger. It's like you put a mirror up to them. Keep doing what you do, Marie-Anne. I love your style and humour.
Whilst I would like to say that I can’t believe how rude people can be …I find that there are sadly people who have NO IDEA about common decency. Well done for this video. Keep going MA. Sincere and well grounded people are behind you. ❤️
I'm so glad to see that you are still able to laugh at some of these comments. It just proves that you are a truly beautiful and polished woman, far above such worthless criticism. Thank you for the high quality advice and very balanced opinions that you share with us for free. Much love 🌿💕
Indeed, absolutely modeling what it is to be a class act. Merci.
I am so happy to have found your channel and hope you keep sharing your great advice!
Pay no attention to these disgusting comments. I watch you and always marvel at your class and elegance. You are always so well turned out. Stunning and Sassy is how I think of you. I could watch your presentations all day long if I had the time. Keep on shining, you are appreciated!!
That is so sad Marie-Anne, but these are people who get a sense of important by being obnoxious and rude to someone they can't possibly compare too. What are they doing even bothering to look at your site. You are truly a classy lady!
Marie-Anne, Don't let the comments bother you. When people are rude, it really says a lot about them. Please don't let these trolls get you down; You are beautiful, warm, stylish, chic and an amazing person! I appreciate the wonderful lessons you have taught, and continue to teach us. Thank you!
I love your responses, Marie-Anne Lecoeur! I don't even need to defend you because you don't need defending. What I like about your videos: 1. Content is relatable and wholesome; 2. The presentation is excellent, easy to follow and your sense of humour is enjoyable; 3. Your style is classy; 4. Advice is realistic and doable in any country; 5. The cameos of the husband add to the down-to-earth atmosphere. Love it, in Canada.
yes we want to see more of Carl! Love the outdoor videos
I’m sorry to hear about those rude, negative comments. It actually reflects on them.
You are so tasteful, elegant, genuine and chic that the best thing to do is to ignore any comments that you know doesn’t come from your community, your followers, the ones that appreciate your advice, like myself ❤️
I am so sorry to hear of the terrible things people are writing. I am a recent subscriber and am so pleased to have found your channel. You have inspired me to go through my closet and think of myself in a different light. Many thanks for your wonderful tips and insights. You have truly inspired and motivated me to look chic.
My mouth dropped open at some of the rude comments you’d received! 😮 Seriously?! Anyone else familiar with being brought up with “if you can’t say anything nice, say nothing?!” I’m surmising those are a minority of comments you receive, Marie-Anne! As they should be 💞 You are authentic, classy and well-spoken! Throw in your sassy sense of humor and it’s clear why we value & care for you! 🥰
Thank you, Marie-Anne, for responding to these shocking and rude comments with elegance and without vulgarity. Almost three years ago I started watching your channel and soon after subscribed. I was trying to figure out how to style my body in a way that reflected how I felt inside. I did not feel old (I was 60 years old at the time) and frumpy, but I was dressing that way after retiring from a profession that required career clothes. You helped me to gain confidence in how to dress my body shape, add color, and use my career clothes in a more casual way. Of course, I do not dress exactly like you, but I dress exactly like me! About two years ago I began receiving compliments from strangers. Your advice was spot on in the changes I needed in my style.
I just wanted to say I appreciate both of your channels. This is the first time I have left a comment on any of the RUclips channels I watch.
Hi Margaret I can not agree with your comment more. Marie-Anne responded with some much elegance. I just wish I was more like her.
I am both sickened and saddened by people who have made such mean spirited comments to you. I think you're wonderful and I'm so happy to have found you. Thank you for your wisdom and for sharing your time and talent with all of us❤🥰
Good for you for confronting the trolls head on. I liked the way you searched for a reason and dismissed those comments as unfounded. Hats off to you for protecting yourself against these toxic comments with style and grace.
Insults say much more about the person who says them than about their target! My philosophy has always been: offense is something that is taken, not given. It's impossible to be insulted against your own will.
It's appalling how rude people can be! I think some people just want to ruin people's days for no reason in particular. I just discovered you and your videos and I'm so excited at the age of 65 to up my style as I am an actress and singer in my community. I love your look, your beautiful fair skin and your bold, red lipstick! Your style is sleek and comfortable and that's exactly what works for me. Thank you for being you!
Oh my gosh! Rudeness and mean spirited is a nasty thing in society that makes people feel they can say and do anything. How very wrong they are and what a sad life.
I'm sorry to hear that you've been on the receiving end.
You're a class act Marie Anne, onward and upward ❤
I love her style advice! We are not all the same and some of us feel more comfortable in classic designed clothes and therefore gravitate towards channels that suit our taste; it’s why I enjoy Marie-Anne’s advice. I also am in awe of her bright personality and cheerful, happy disposition; which makes her videos so easy to watch. Style is not just about how you dress, it’s about how you treat people, and rude comments just show you are bereft of the kind of style that attracts others. Perhaps it could also mean that you are a very unhappy person and therefore need pity.
I enjoy your style. Like your voice and light humor. From South Florida.
I'm a bit late to the party, but just wanted to congratulate you on handling these shocking comments with grace and humour. Love your channel, love your advise and love your style. Thank you.
Ahhhh Marie-Anne,
When you “put yourself out there” in Social media (or anywhere really), mean people are going to cross your path unfortunately. And even tho you are an elegant, sensible, beautiful lady, I am sure it can sting the soul sometimes. But most all of us viewers adore and appreciate you. Thank you for making great content despite those commenters poor judgement. It most likely reflects what goes on in their own hearts/minds and possibly how they were treated or maybe they are bored and troll you-tube creators bc they have not much else to do. Too bad for them.
With love and hellos from across the sea ~M
I can never understand why people are so mean. They show their true colors which aren’t pretty. I love your videos Marie-Anne Lecoeur! Keep them coming! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Marie-Anne, I just discovered your channel and I love it! I love your chats, your style advice and even if I don't agree with everything or would wear it. I recommend your Channel to others. You need to take these comments and realize where it comes from. Unfortunately we live in a crazy world where a large chunk of the population have no class / style/morals/values/common sense/critical thinking. Sad but true. Their comments only reflect them and actually has nothing to do with you / truth.
Please shake it off and keep on doing what you love. I and many others enjoy you! Thank you! ❤
How pathetic these people are. What sad, limited lives they must lead. Their comments are generated from their ignorance and their dissatisfaction with themselves. Take no notice! You are providing great content in a most enjoyable, authentic manner.
I love how you’re amused with all these fools, Marie-Anne. And I know you don’t take it personally. YOU know who you are. And that’s all that matters. And I love your new, fun hairstyle.
Thank you for making yourself vulnerable to these spiteful people in order to share your grace and genius with the world. I appreciate you so much!
I'm shocked! I'm so sorry you've been treated so badly! People who make these remarks are rude, inconsiderate, and narrow minded. No imagination at all. Remember that you don't have to explain yourself to anyone. You are loved and appreciated! You are kind and elegant!
Unbelievable how terrible people can be! Your videos are great -love your tips and style and your great sense of humour😊Keep them coming❤️
I am so shocked by the comments. People hide behind the anonymity of the internet and write things that they would never say in person. I hope you don’t let those comments get to you because they do not represent the majority of us who follow you. Your response to the comments is very gracious. ❤️
Merci Tammi - I appreciate your kind words and support 😘
Oh my word! Please don’t give any of those remarks a second thought. It’s horrible that the only thing in their sad lives are negative thoughts and actions. I love your fresh ideas and so glad you are not like everyone else!
Marie
Despite your disdain for Birkenstocks (lol), as a woman in my early 50s, I enjoy watching your channel and getting style recommendations. I don't follow every tip, but I incorporate some, as is my choice. Keep doing your thing, Marie-Anne, et bonne chance avec les "trolls!" ❤️
You are such a lovely person and always respectful to others. Such grace with their comments. I would not be able to endure the complaints and insults today’s people lash out. Please don’t ever let them make you cry. You have more style and grace in your little finger than they can ever comprehend.
Faithful follower.
Merci for your support Karen x
I cannot believe people feel the need to be destructive in their comments rather than constructive. This speaks more about them than you. Keep doing what you're doing, we think you're awesome!
