French women. They save money for a few classic, quality items to wear over and over; don't rack up credit card debt buying fast fashion and the latest trends. They have capsule wardrobes. It's rather basic but a good foundation for training your 'eye'. You can then add items, like accessories or prints or different textures, to personalize it. Very practical way of looking at everyday fashions for average people.
Marie-Anne does videos addressing the wishes of her subscribers. This is just one example: Petite and Plus Size women felt ignored. Women who can't wear heels or have bunions asked her for videos with shoes they could wear that didn't look frumpy. She did a series on fashions for different body types. Many women are clueless.
She talks a lot, who knows how fake the accent is, most of what I have seen here is basic common sense and a mirror. It does not take a stylist.
French women used to be the forefront. Plenty of frumpy, overweight, ratty looking French women out there.

Of course, if you have a stylist, ignore this.
Shoes are really hard for me. I have to wear the same ugly man type ASA shoes because I can't find anything that has a wide enough depth to have wiggle room for my toes. ASA sandles are great but shoes that don't look ugly for a woman and not hurt are impossible to find.
Her youtube videos are a taste of her courses, described on her website. If you have common sense and a mirror, you don't need to take a course. The Community tab on her youtube channel often shows subscribers wearing outfits based on her advice.
You can buy her books and journals in her Amazon store. She also has a free E book. If you're on her mailing list you get notices of online classes and clothing trends. I don't think she is doing in person consultations any more. Zoom calls only.
She is one of a very few genuine French authors/vloggers creating content about genuine French Chic Style for English and American women. Her friend Frederique Bros also has a channel but discusses other topics besides fashion. They both get annoyed with youtubers, usually Americans recently moved to France, who pretend to be experts on French style. I noticed when those poseurs stopped women on the street in Paris to talk about their outfits, most weren't even French!

I love basic styles I can dress up or down. I've had some clothes for years. When I find something that flatters my body. I go with it.
Marie-Anne Lecoeur would agree. That is the basis of French style! The French don't like fast fashion, they like quality classics.
