Announcing - Très Chic: My Book About Classic Style
Fuck a “lady”. You ask me a nosy question, I’ll give you an equally proportionate answer.
Thank you. A lot of these tattooed, Daisey Duke wearing women around here could learn a lot from you. You speak very well also
would you wear new sweats?
You never get to the point… too much talking and not straightforward advices.
Whatever you do, don't explain. If you explain, they'll criticize, question, judge, condemn, debate you into argument and get into conflict As Queen Elizabeth said " never complain, never explain " And don't care what they think in their head, just do things that benefit you without explanations and move on, let it go
"it's a personal matter" would be my default answer! Or i deflect by changing topic Or i give vague answer Or i give bossy answer
This was a complete waste of my time.
I’ve been asked about my company, my job title, my salary, if I have boyfriend, why my eye lashes are long, how old I am, and if I want to find an egg bank😖so offensive
❤
I wish we had etiquette class in high school... I don't know why we don't in these day in age because we have a class for content creation... but not common etiquette...
A "friend" didn't talk to me for months for not letting her try on my engagement ring. I didn't know what to say, other than, please no. We reconnected months later but to this day she wouldn't tell me why she got mad at me. What would've been a clever way to decline such request?
I have tried the alcohol with a cotton ball and also the hairspray I couldn't get neither one to work
Thanks that. Message was great
Thank you so much Devereaux, for such an interesting video! Please excuse me, I' m not sure about spelling your name; is it Devoreaux, or Devereaux? Thank you very much! And the icons series is very inspiring!💐🌹🌅
Thank you so much Devoreaux, for this interesting video! I agree with all that you said. Classic style is the best , as for me! And quality too!
Thank you so much Devereaux, for such an interesting video! I also played classical music, on the cello, guitar, and renaissance music on the viola da gamba. I really love these kinds of music, and I love jazz too! Jazz can be so relaxing! I don' t know French café, and I will sure listen , ( my mother tongue is French, but I am Canadian). I' m excited in advance! And also Latin Jazz! I want to know that genre too! Merci beaucoup pour vos très intéressantes vidéos, Devereaux! 😃❤️
Thank you
Thank you so much for this very interesting video!
I love personalized stationery! I prefer folded note cards. I have one set with my name embossed on ivory cardstock, and another set with my monogram in my sorority colors.
Thank you so much for such good advice! 🙏🌹🌄
Its 304 culture taking over on-line. 😢😢 please post videos and flood it with images of classy black women
My mother will say well I’m just telling you how I feel
There was a birthday in my office and a coworker had the balls to ask how old I am in front of everybody! It was so damn awkward! someone immediately asked him as well, and guess what, he went "I don't wanna say it" -.- (he is in his 40s and im in my 30s)
Oh dear. I have a family reunion coming up and I have gone no contact with most of these people for years now. Any suggestions about how to answer such questions as "what have you been up to/where have been?" And "where do you work" as well as asking about my relationship status, I would be so grateful. These are wonderful answers in the comments section and this channel is so tailor made to me ❤ the algorithm did its thing today lol
"Would you mind terribly of I kept that for myself? ". "I don't see how that's any of your business"
Kindness acknowledgmend respect were has it gone ?
I hope all is well ❤ Would like to see more videos!
I get caught off guard with nasty questions and answer it but later realize I didn't want to. For example, my roommate asked me about my wage and I felt uncomfortable yet I still answered but it's like I don't care how much he makes.
I am sorry but waste of 3 minutes to watch it
Lots of women to want know your age,what job or were do you leave.How about knowing me as person first.I find this sad but feel sorry for the other Quite shallow!
I would just keep the answer very brief "No thank you" with a polite smile. If they ask again, you say "No thank you" with a polite smile, then turn away. Giving a reason like"its a diet, allergy, sensitivity, im not hungry, ive already eaten" etc just gives them an opportunity to offer you food at a later date and make a song and dance about "Oh this recipe doesnt have your allergens etc etc". If you're firm but kind, they will offer again, but they won't be able to quote the reasons why you didn't eat last time. Just say "No, thank you". And keep it moving. I have a coworker who always cooks and trys to alter the recipes to suit my dietary needs, but i dont want to eat food from them. If i could go back in time, i wouldnt have explained my dietary needs because its not their business, and it's tiring having a reason to explain why i won't eat their food this time.
I am genuinely sorry for this person. She is personable and pleasant to watch and listen to. The advice she gave is found on several internet sites. She meant no harm. There was no gimmick, no scam, and no ill intention. Why were people so cruel in their comments? For those who had a bad experience trying to remove a stain from their bags, types of leathers and types of ink can change the end result of the task. I was lucky using the alcohol and the magic marker remover. Very happy customer. Thank you.
Love pearls! Curious if there is any “rule” to eating multiple shades of pearls at once. Like white pearl necklace with black pearl earrings.
I can not stand it when people ask nosy questions in rapid succession; especially at work. I had someone disrupt my classroom today to ask how many kids I have, where they go to school, where I was going next year, what career I was going to pursue, etc. I told her I was a free spirit and I did not have it figured out yet. I don't like to give hard and fast answers because when I change my mind, I don't want anyone to later call me a liar. She literally only started talking to me after weeks of just staring; my first reaction to her was that something was off. So I felt like she was just data mining for some nefarious purpose. Also, if they make you feel uncomfortable, that is probably the Lord shielding you from a narcissist.
Watching this as invited to my freinds wedding, never been to one and want to make sure I don't mess up as it's an incredibly important day for her.
🎉yes to pearls
When im in a lineup i compliment others
I like making " becoming black" art and i study all about countries
Yeah I hate the age question, it is so obnoxius to be asked this by an older person at work. Somehow, as a male happily married all the women tend to ask me this.
People are so obnoxious and annoying...sadly many will still persist and then get angry when you don't answer
Cp3 - the dirty floppin false 'point god' wouldn't sniff my top 5. He used to get sonned by TP who is sadly never mentioned in these lists. Add Dennis Johnson , Rod Strickland, Kevin Johnson ...
So slow to get to the point! Entirely too wordy!
Thanks for the video 🌺Can i substitute with sugar powder?
I use to wear my engagement ring on third finger is it wrong
A magic eraser ruined my leather bag. Don't do it.
These are all great, but any advice on how to answer someone who asks you what you do for a living or how much do you make an hour? I had this asked of me
If you forgive me for not answering, I'll forgive you for asking
I wish I would’ve known before naively answering every noisy question that was asked. Gesh 🤦♀️
When I first watched this video, I didn’t understand why she was stating the obvious. This is pretty much how everyone I knew grew-up. To sum it up, “be nice to everyone.” Unfortunately, later or earlier in life, people become complacent or just go with the flow. It’s not easy to stay being nice. I was once confused when someone commented that they had never heard me swear. That gave me a lot to think about. Different jobs also have different people. Not everyone likes nice people. They get suspicious.
Common questions lately are where do you work and what do you do for work - I don't think my occupation is someone's business- and a lady did that yesterday out of nowhere and said don't you work for ??? I'm thinking why does it matter in my mind this is not a job interview, and I answer the question due to on the spot in front of other staff I am frustrated cause it's not a topic of a subject
That was disproved for the vein to the ❤
