10 High Heels Elegant Ladies NEVER Wear (provisional title until she changes it yet again)
Laydeez! Were seven or eight videos not enough to tell you what shoes Anna doesn't approve of? Well here we go again
1. "Embellished mules" - made trendy by Bottega Veneta but now too many fast fashion copycats. Anna knows all about fast fashion doesn't she? She also says that a trend for embellished Prada bags has made this overdone - "what if the embellished Prada bag would have a little baby with the Bottega Veneta shoe?" Accompanied by a truly bizarre Photoshop of a bag and shoe in hospital. Her "quirky" Photoshops/edits aren't funny, they're ridiculous. Anyway, instead wear $1740 Aquazzura heels with embellishment on just the toes. See? Anna's not just queen of the bargain bucket!
2. "Cork wedges" - too dated, early 2000s trend. Instead wear "espadrille"-style shoes with a strap close to your skin tone.
Plug for a new workshop on style, accompanied by a video of Anna looking at her IKEA wardrobe and having a nervous breakdown. In fairness to her, I'd do the same if I had to live in her apartment.
3. "Thick ankle strap pump" - by thick ankle strap she means a long one that winds around the ankle and looks a bit like a belt. Anna can't believe people are still wearing these cuz they were chic when she was younger. In the Stone Age? And they CUT OFF THE LEG!!! (shocker.) Instead wear a generic pair of court shoes from PrettyLittleThing for $24, yes they're black and "cut off the leg" as well but there's only so much she can afford to spend even when it's all going back to the shop.
4. "Valentino stud heels" - they are not klahssic, they've been around for about a decade and now it is 2023, helloooo? Instead wear a pair of strappy Louboutins. She ends by ordering Valentino to remove the studs from their shoes and bags. Wannabey hath spoken! Quotes: "Maybe you don't like toe cleavage", "Beige, boring, and blad."
5. "90s platform strappy sandal trend" - too heavy and too dated. She demonstrates with a giant pair of neon strappy platform heels. She says "I want to warn the general public about the dangers of this shoe" over a clip of people running away in a disaster movie. Instead wear ... another pair of espadrilles, similar to #2. Anna says they are similar to the platforms but they look nothing like them at all. She says the espadrilles look more expensive due to "the natural element of rope." I don't really think of "rope" as a natural element? (Not sure if she's talking about the straw-like material they're made from or the braided leather on the toes)
6. "Platform pumps" - we know, she hates platforms. She says men hate them too! You can wear very high heels but preferably under a long dress/long trousers so your legs look longer. She demonstrates with another pair of $1000 Aquazzura heels.
7. "Satin platform" - this is all just platform isn't it. Anyway they're MASS MARKET. Don't look like the masses, laydeez! Wear a pair of Aquazzura slingbacks instead
8. "Bow embellished heels" - too popular with influencers and too "juvenile." Instead wear a pair of Jimmy Choo heels with diamante straps
9. "PVC mules" - they are cheap and look like Shein, Anna hates Shein and will never promote them on her channel! Unless they've got her own name on the label. Instead wear a pair of raffia mules which she thinks look "more elevated" than PVC. They look like they belong on the beach, hardly elevated.
10. "Mismatched toned pumps" - she means in a "nude" colour that doesn't match your own skin tone. Instead she chooses another pair that doesn't match her skin tone.
Next video is also about shoes eleghunt ladies never wear. Which means it's about something totally different and we can finally move on from this subject. Yay!
