Yes and no. I have found myself change my opinions at times because of an argument. Not right away, because at the heat of the moment you want to stand your ground. But sometimes, down the line, I have found myself remembering the argument and seeing where I was wrong. I know it's petty, but it happens. I do think people need to remember that they're talking to human beings and have conversations instead. The way people write to one another... non of them would have the courage to speak that way to a person standing in front of them. Sharing perspective can enlighten people in great ways. But still an important rule to remember - don't argue! :)

People will do as they wish and if they want to post a photo where they look great (and perhaps you don't) then so what. Why should we care if other people see an unflattering photo of us? Strangers opinions of how we look doesn't affect us in any way and can't be changed, and our friends who know us know how we really look, both the flattering and unflattering sides. Unless you want to argue/lose a friend, there is no point because if it really is such a bad photo of you - they will know it too, and clearly don't care. That's my opinion.

Thank you for touching the subject of unsolicited opinions. I remember one of your last videos when I told someone that it's never okay to give your opinion about someone else's body. Someone replied that it's fine to do it but ladies: it's never fine to comment on someone's body! Be elegant, not rude

I totally get being a slow responder. It takes mental energy to give people a proper response. In some ways, I think it shows respect to that person when you wait until you're in the right headspace so you can give them a well-thought-out reply.

Anna’s point relating to one giving their opinion without being asked to is something I come across very often. For a long time I thought I was too sensitive for being offended as people claimed to be giving those comments as “friendly advice”. Sometimes maybe people don’t even realize that these comments are not simply rude but can also be hurtful. Therefore, let’s think twice before giving our advice, especially when it is not asked from us.

Thank you for discussing this topic - you were 100% on the mark!! I would love to see more etiquette topics on how an elegant, professional lady handles social media faux pas - I've actually told friends to 'put the damn phone away' when they have accompanied me as a guest to an exclusive event. And I'm talking about the over 40 crowd of women who should know better. (Luckily, I now have the perfect gentleman who is my "always +1"!) . PS. I love the multi-tasking makeup application!

Suggestion: turn off notifications on WhatsApp so that you will see the message only when you open the app!! And people will see only one tick!

Your sweater is really beautiful. 😍 I always respond fast and I tell people if I don't have time at the moment. The truth is, I always have time. 😂 I totally agree with postings about child abuse, etc. I know what is going on in the world, I don't need to see it without a warning before. I get nightmares and pictures in my mind I can never ever remove from it. I don't want to see it, because I can't handle it.

1. I love yout channel you are like the girlfriend/sister I never had. When I watch your videos I end up felling empowered but in a different way, like really really empowered not the "I don´t need a man-I´m a goddess and all men are trash" kinda way. But in a very feminine powerful way. 2. About your video format: I personally like any of your formats, weather you´re getting ready or just talking to us it´s ok with me 3. About whatsapp etiquette: I think the etiquette is for the person sending the whatsapp not for the person receiving it, because if you send a message you don´t know what the other person is doing, unless is an emergency or a really urgent message then yes, but if not, then you have to understant that people are living their lives, they are not waiting for you to send them a message. I´m not saying to be rude and don´t answer any messages, but sometimes people are busy working, studying, sleeping, eating, and we need to understand that. 4. About giving unsolicited advise: I understand what you mean, but sometimes you as the unsolicited advise giver you want to share new infromation or tips with other people, so I think you should always ask for permission for example: dear friend you look amazing with this dress but I have a tip that will make you even more beautiful, may I share it with you? 5. About filming in public places: I think it´s ok if the people around you are far enough that we the viewers can´t tell who they are, for example I can see that the people around you is a black man or a latina or a tall girl but I cannot see their facial features. If they are close enough that I can see them, then I believe you have to blur their faces. 6. Sorry for bad english!! Hugs and kisses from Mexico.

I didn't know I needed this video FROM YOU in my life. I can not express my gratitude to you Anna. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!

When I post a photo, I do try not to have anyone (especially strangers) in the photo. Or I’ll blur other people and focus on subject like me and my friends (with their permission) .

You have such a beautiful personality 😭♥️

Desire Morales Anna does. 😊

The pink sweater suits you so well!

Anna, you have a true style! You mention things that I have certainly noticed happening but never thought it was a social thing, for example, people who photoshop their own image in a group picture or share the picture where only they look great but others don't. You often speak out of my heart and I'm glad I'm not the only one left on this planet appreciating some manners and thinking of others.

OMG this is literally my mom! She corrects everything I say, comment on everything I wear. She is my living social media critic. I have developed a little bit of that I'm working on fixing it

I grew up to believe that it's actually illegal to take any kind of footage of a person without having permission first, let alone posting that footage for the world to see. When I was at school and we had celebrations or went to trips or had to have our picture taken for calendars or whatever, parents always had to sign a document that they allow their child to have their picture taken. Parents had to sign it because minors under the age of 18 cannot make such decisions for themselves, legally. So if this applies to children (at least in my country Bulgaria), why not to adults as well, even if it's your friends?

I dont have WhatsApp for those exact reasons. I deleted it 5 years ago, funnily enough it more than halved the messages I received because are so used to going to whatsapp to message instead of texting or emailing. Suits me wonderfully.

I agree! I really don't like when there's so much "seen" "read" etc - it can confuse the sender for sure. I do keep "read" receipts open for my close family members because I want to make sure we know each other is ok - if they haven't "read" it, it just means they aren't near the phone or are busy. We always respond once it says "read". :)

😊you know what gets on my nerves, when random people add you. Llike someone gets your number, and then they're sending you a message on whatsapp like they know you. Send me a text, or an email. We don't know each other like that. To me whatsapp is for someone I'm close to or have known for yearrrrs. And that's when all the rules apply about etiquette, and responding and so on.

Seriously, I love the way you speak English. You are so confident and natural in front of the camera. In fact, I watch your videos 50% because I like the content and 50% because I like to practice my listening with you.

You have a beautiful accent, don't listen to them.

I completely agree ❤ Some people say you can always make time to respond. However, there are many moments when I literally can not manage to open messages for several days due to my obligations

I like this background and video the best it makes me feel like I’m in a personal conversation then a normal video Like it captivated me more And typo police are the worse

Hi Anna!! I always enjoy your videos so much, they're really educational. I would like to share something with you, I'll turn 21 soon, and I deleted my Instagram years ago. The only "social media" I have is whatsapp, and I feel like when people ask me about my instagram and I say that I do not have one, they are really surprised and look at me as if I was this rare creature 😂 But the reaction is always positive. I feel like it gives a type of "exclusivity", so to speak, image. Like you have to have my phone number to contact me and you do not know anything about my life from photos you see, so there's also a sense of "mystery". I know that in this day and age it feels like if you do not have instagram you do not exist but... it has been working well for me, I've been focusing more on developing myself 😊 Lots of love xx

@Alessadra Suarez, good for you. Once upon a time people kept things private and I have long predicted many would go back to that because social media has become people's undoing, especially when it is used in an unflattering way. There is an old saying that goes, "80% of a woman's mystery is in what she doesn't say or reveal."

Agreed, I have guy friends and coworker friends that I want to keep in my network, but who I wouldn't want seeing me in my bathing suit. I have a family member who doesn't understand this so I put a filter on so I have to approve everything that I'm tagged in. But, it still is on their feed and really angers me....because we do have some shared acquaintances.

@@jules44444 on most platforms you can Report the image and have it removed by the platform, you can claim copyright infringement or harassment. Treat it as if a stalker had posted it, platforms usually take this seriously and will delete them.

I guess being an influencer seems to be overwhelming sometimes. Too bad most people concentrate on the negative.

I like the format because you are respecting yourself by getting two things done in your busy life at once. I also like it because it’s fun and informal. As for anyone who criticizes you, they’re jealous. You’re beautiful and smart and successful and others sometimes can’t let that go. It shreds their own worth into pieces. Keep being you. You shine. Those others only want to bring you down and kudos to you for not letting them!

I've been waiting for this my whole life!!❤❤

I love this kind of laidback video of yours ♥️ About filming in public, I think giving a blank answer of yes and no isn't helpful. I do think if someone's face is clear and close up it should be blurred. For example, I have seen youtubers vlogging themselves eating in a restaurant where someone eating behind them is in full few for much of their meal. I think in such situations it would be rude not to blur them.

Hey Anna, I just started following you this fall. I am really becoming more elegant, stylish and thoughtful since watching your videos. Thank you for putting this information together. You are the only KZreadr I follow.

Girl! You're a thorough high class lady and I love you!😘 God bless!

Tell me about it. It's worse when you teach.

I loved this format. I definitely would watch this as a regular series. Anna talks about a topic while getting ready. It feels like talking to a friend who is giving you great life advice.

I've corrected you in one of your last videos, not to validate myself but because you pronunced an italian word so cutely it made me giggle, and the reason it sounded cute it's because it has a new, strange accent and I justified the diversity by writing the accent (we don't have lots, so it's difficult to learn and we italians speak differently from region to region) I'm the one who 'correct' people but I don't see that as a rude gesture and I don't mean it, I like a lot when someone does that to me because it means I'm receiving an information that can be useful. It gets annoying only when someone is trying to make fun of me, being passive aggressive maybe. To my part, that's not the intention and I don't think of it before 'correcting' someone simply because being corrected it's something I generally appreciate. I'm not sensitive when I make little mistakes, for me it's like stumbling and a correction it's like someone helping me standing again, but I understand being in your position you may feel more pressure. If I've added on that pressure, I apologize.

I love your channel, lots of good advice, lots of wisdom and you’re a sweet soul. I like watching your channel just to improve myself. After raising kids all day, everyday (don’t get me wrong they’re a blessing) it’s good for me to feel like an “elegant lady”, if just in actions. I would say about filming or photographing in public, that it would be fine as long as you blur the images of the people in the background. I think that shows them respect and some decency. ❤️

It is so sad when people are critical of others. Can't we just enjoy and appreciate the strengths in others? I totally agree with you on all of the points Anna. Once again and as always, a beautifully presented and thought provoking post. ❤

wow since you've obviously learned how to apply your new knowledge about colours and which one to wear you've become even more pretty :))

On the contrary, I've had friends ask me for permission for photos that I clearly looked covered, or bad in. However I still let them post it and made a mental note of how considerate they really are.

Anna, it's a delight to have someone like yourself with honesty; thank you for making this video. You’re the only influencer who has ever shared this topic with us.💜

I think that you are absolutely a wonderful influence. I've watched several videos and I was so pleasantly surprised how much you are encouraging others to be kind and respectful, not only to others but also to yourself! Also, I admire how you are able to explain some of these stereotype type things with style, dating and so on with logic and grace. Love it. Keeping women positive!

I think when it comes to the grammar police situation that you’re mentioning, I think sometimes people feel the need to correct someone who they feel offended by. For example if you say something that comes off judgmental and you’re not even using proper English or whatever language it is you’re speaking the person might feel like how dare you try to tell me something about myself when you can’t even speak the words properly

I think I missed that part about reporting people who take your photo without permission. May I ask how do you report these people?

Such sound advice as always! Your caution about posting too much "misery" is right on. I often get posts relating to animal cruelty, which I care deeply about, but if I come across a horrible graphic image without warning it can ruin my mood for hours. I don't always want to be brought to tears in the midst of my busy day.

I love this kind of format :) Anything that breaks the routine is fab !

I simply love you, Anna! You have helped me so much and I am so grateful for the knowledge you share!

I love these more personal type videos. We've all caught a glimpse of your clothes closet in the reflection of the makeup mirror behind you. I would love to see a tour of that closet! I would also like to know the model of the car you drive. I love, love, love your channel and your message and I am going to enlist in your program after the holidays are over. Thank you, Anna, for being such a classy lady and the inspiration you give to so many!

Your comment on "oversharing" people is so sweet. I also think we should think about it that way in order to be kinder to one another. Thank you for sharing it.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful advice. 💗 Thank you for putting yourself in the spot light that many of us don't have the courage to do. It's easy for people to say negative, rude, or unladylike things when they are hiding behind a glowing screen from their couch.

✨Wonderful content/subject✨, dear Anna. My approach to social media is if I wouldn't say it to your face in your sitting room then why would I say it here on your page? In both scenarios we're guests of yours and I try to behave as such. 🌹

Anna, I love seeing your more casual style of videos! Do this more often ❤️

You brought up some great points. I was once a professional photographer, and it did become a headache, getting the necessary permissions - and in writing, no less! You never know a person's story - they may be at an innocent event but told their friends they were too busy to go out rather than hurt their feelings. I would never post anything without blurring a person's face, at the very least. I am so appreciative that you addressed this. Enjoyed this so much. Thank you!

Great points Anna, which I too follow when on social media. In regards to filming in public places: it’s all about respect to other people. There are a lot of people that have chosen not to put their lives in social media & don’t want to be on there so it is with this in mind, in my opinion, that you should always ask their permission to have them in the social media filming/feed. For instance, that person may have called in sick to work but it was not sickness related (if their boss sees them then they may lose their job due to this) or maybe they had turned down an invite & they are shown on social media doing something else. It’s all about choice & respect in my opinion. Have a beautiful day Anna. Xxxx
