I've carried this "cuteness" aspect to me my whole life that I haven't always been comfortable with - it has often felt like an "uncool" or immature part of myself, especially as I age [I'm now 27]. The idea presented here that it is, in fact, something I can embrace and make work for me as an adult, is...kinda low key making me wanna cry? I dunno, it's hard to explain. Thank you for this video.

@@Gabriellearrudadesign It really can’t be overstated how much it shifted my perspective! That I can have “cuteness” to me as a grown woman and it doesn’t make me childish. I used to go through phases of actively trying to change this part of myself, because it wasn’t the image I wanted. I was never successful, so I just became self-conscious. I was shy to embrace things like “cute” and “pretty” for a long time, but I think the concept of essences is a really helpful guide on how to find what best suits the individual, so you don’t feel out of place in your clothes.

@dreamland but men talk down to cute women, and they get upset when a cute women is in power. E.g my female manager is cute and the men at work talk so much sh*t about her. Also, a lot of women are endeared by cute women, whereas they are not endeared by straight up sexy women such as Megan Fox who has mostly male fans. Whereas Ariana Grande has many female fans

For years now I’ve been lowkey concerned about how I lean towards aesthetics that are more “cute” and “childlike”, I thought I had some form of arrested development 💀 so it’s very reassuring to know that it’s a normal thing for some women! I rarely feel drawn to more “sexy” / “mature” essences despite being 25 years old 😅 I think it just suits me best overall anyways. I look a lot younger than I actually am so whenever I do try to dress older than I am it just doesn’t look right lol

I am Romantic (kibbe wise) but my essence is mostly ingenue. It looked off when I was trying sexy stereotypical romantic outfits, because they didn't harmonize with my face. I can make them work only with heavier makeup that make me appear older. I think the stylists followed the same technique for Marilyn Monroe. She looked like a little doll at her younger pictures 😍

I am, in fact, a psychology student and I do know associations that can be created between a woman's looks and assumptions on her character. Actually that's not even about women, it happens with everyone. What does that have to do with this system however? Who told you it's about appealing to men?

Please do all of the essences in this style format! I'm positive I'm a natural-romantic-ingenue blend (I'm just not sure what my percentages are). I often feel my best and think I look my best when I'm playful with outfits. I love wearing warm colors that are bright, easy flowy fabrics, shapes that hug my curves. I'm cute and youthful, but also mature and womanly. I either come across as very warm and welcoming or sensual. Usual reactions form people are mixed depending on the style I prefer to wear that day. I find myself relating more and more to Scarlett Johansson, since I'm a Soft Natural in Kibbe's format.

I plan to! I go over (at the end of the video) how to narrow down the percentages, it ends up being the easiest to test out a singular essence at at time and see who much of an outfit based on that essence you can do. And then I break down the general percentages after that. Scarlett Johanson sounds like a great style icon for you with all that overlap in categories.

People often say I look quite a bit younger than my age, I overall have this very innocent, cute, delicate, harmless, borderline kiddy or whimsical sometimes look to me so people (men 🙄) tend to assume I’m incapable of defending myself or take it upon themselves to do things for me because they don’t think I’ll manage or something. Thing is though, I have quite intimidating intellect, I’m very witty and sharp, I tend to be very business-like and cold in formal environments, I’m extremely reliable and helpful to others, I’d even say I’m kinda charismatic.

DUUUUUUDE. What i was previously interpreting as Romantic essence in me was actually Ingenue. I don't personally see anything "dollike" about my face, so I completely dismissed this one, but this got me thinking about how I know i give off a sort of naive vibe (im definitely the furthest thing from Dramatic even though i wanted to be one soooo bad). I actually love wearing little pigtails and my satin scrunchies that have a long flowy ribbon hanging off of them. The hair and makeup styles of the ingenue seem very compatible with soft classic on me. This was so helpful thank you.

I wasn't sure if my essence was ingenue until you mentioned the bows, the makeup and the taste for vintage fashion, I felt very identified! But I also realized that I usually look more mature, even when I use ingenue accessories. Maybe another one of my essences is romantic. Dresses that follow the curves of my body, fabrics like lace or velvet suit me very well and enhance my romantic silhouette (my Kibee ID is romantic), but I also like to add details like bows, small and delicate accessories since the whole image of "strong sexy woman" doesn't suit me so much. It feels like my image is more like a "sexy delicate" if that make sense. I think my essences would be romantic, ingenue, and classic, but I'm not sure about the percentages. pd: sorry if my english is bad, I'm still learning. Also, I love your channel!!

I used to think I was mostly romantic but this video confirmed my suspicions of being mostly ingenue. For example, despite worrying about moving into my 30's with nothing to my name I'm still getting lumped in with my middle school aged siblings, having a job interviewer check if I was the minimum age of 18 for a position, and I just made a shop owner's kid scared to sell me the cigars my stepfather asked me to pick up for him. Thankfully I'm a good judge of what looks good on me so my wardrobe according to this video is mostly gothic ingenue.

I learned a few months ago Im a soft classic with ingenue essence. I was soooo suprised! I always thought I was a romantic! I , never identified with the classic type at all and had never even heard of essences! I’m 41 years old and my essence is probably about 90-95% ingenue. I have a gentle playful manner and I learned recently, all my coworkers thought I was in my late 20’s. I often meet people I think are “old” but then learn they are actually younger than me! Even upper management forgets I’m their age! Cool for me , however I’m also gentle and not a driven, self promoter, so I often get treated in a thoughtlessly dismissive manner and overlooked by others. I’m generally viewed kindly and am well liked. People often confide in me, because I’m seen as safe. At times, I feel self conscious of my affinity for bows, pastels and miniatures. No one ever uses the word “immature” to describe me, but I do have a doll collection I usually don’t talk about …😏 I’m trying to better understand my soft Classic nature, my essence and how they relate to each other. I want to be me, but still be taken seriously and respected.I want to live gracefully with dignity. Thanks for the informative video. I really enjoyed the visual examples of outfits and people, the comparisons, and explanations!

I was professionally analyzed by Kitchener. He gave me a lot of Romantic and no Ingenue. But, I'm sure I am the reverse, a lot of Ingenue and no Romantic. He only asked for one photo of me without make up and another close-up of my eye for the color analysis. I feared it wasn't enough so I sent him another photo in which I happened to be wearing a red dress and red lipstick which may be what influenced him toward Romantic. The print and cut of the dress were Ingenue, though, and that's why it worked on me. He'd calculated my essences before our Zoom appt, but once he saw me on Zoom he did a hard double take, stopped everything and went back over his notes, furrowing his brow for a long time. I suspect he wanted to change the Romantic to Ingenue, but was maybe too embarrassed to admit he'd goofed. I have very full apple cheeks and my mouth is child-like small. Small flowered prints look like they were made for me while anything Romantic makes me look like I'm playing in my mother's clothes. When I was 42 a man asked me what high school I was attending, and no, I wasn't wearing a little dress. I was in jeans and a t-shirt. When I was thinking about getting a master's degree in Marriage and Family Counseling I went to talk to the head of the department about it. He took one look at me and tried to steer me toward Child Counseling. I love children, but it really hurt to be assumed to be too youthful or childlike to counsel adults. Adults who actually know me have always said I have a lot of depth and wisdom and am an "old soul." It is a curse to be an adult or an old soul who looks like a child, but it's wonderful to have videos like this to teach us how to embrace it and work with it. I've also had people tell me all my life that I seem very "ethereal," but Kitchener didn't give me any ethereal. When I asked him why he said ethereals were all super skinny and almost anorexic. I wasn't overweight at all, but I wasn't skinny enough to be ethereal according to him. Again, I believe he made a mistake and admire that you saw the ethereal in someone who has some real substance to her. Honestly, I think you have a better understanding of the essences than he does. He told me he really struggled to learn them.

Wow!! Now I know why he typed Scarllet Johansson as ingenue and Marliny too. I never agreed bcs altough they look feminine, they don't look like kids or people wouldn't say" Scarllet is soo cute" she looks mature,I say that bcs I see really ingenue people around me,it seems like westerners don't really know what ingenue is.... (not all,the youtubers and bloggers,I discover when they choose a celebrity as example) for example, Gabriela says that the ingenue in Taylor Swift comes for round eyes,but, she don't have round eyes at all!! The ingenue really comes from her upper lip which is thin and goes inward,and from her short midle third. Actual, ingenue comes in many ways. Round face,soft high set eyebrows (light in coloring)etc. So,many people are a mix bcs people are complex,if you wanna know more I highly recommend dear peachie, a channel here on KZfaq, at least the teach what makes a eye looks rounder,sharp nose,etc. Bcs often the content creators don't explain what are round lips,etc.

This is CRAZY! I've known about this essence long before I ever knew about these systems since it's such an iconic look (Monroe, Scarlett - I've just always understood this innately as a vibe), but I've always dismissed it being ME. I've never thought I was "cool" enough for it, that I could pull it off. Here I am staring in the mirror with a round face, wide-set eyes, bow lips, small general features, youthful glow (I'm 30 and no one ever believes it), and naive vibe....I have no idea how I missed it! This is a game changer for me, thank you. I've even always preferred baggy clothes because "fitted" clothes (like the sharp dress shirt you showed) have always looked AWFUL on me, and I just didn't know I liked baggy clothes because of the SOFT EDGES! Gah.

I struggled so much with learning to incorporate my ingenue essence into my blend. I'm an SD: tall, narrow, slender, curvy -- my figure is dead ringer for Monica Bellucci's. Although I'm so tall & womanly, I still get "oh, you're so cute/adorable/innocent looking!" from people straining their necks to look up at me. My essence blend something like Romance-Classic-Dramatic with a hint of Ingenue. Although the Ingenue in my blend is so tiny, I still look slightly lost if I don't account for it. Your video has helped figure me realized how to incorporate it. Becuase my other essences are more mature, I can get away with "Ingenue colours" (pastels & and other bright colours) & dainty gold jewellery. I have to be careful with incorporating Ingenue textures (light coloured lace) & small-scale patterns/prints -- those can be hit or miss, but small florals, houndstooth, & polka dots always work on me. I can't get too cutesy or I will look like a grown woman dressing like a littke girl.

I can't say how much I love how THOROUGH you have been with these videos. Keep up the good work! I have been typed by John Kitchner as 35% Natural, 30% Romantic, 25% high-spirited (Gamine), and 10% youthful (Ingenue). Having FOUR essences had me scratching my head of how to put it all together in a look. I used it in my workplace outfits in my headbands or hair bows. I was a dental hygienist for a lot of years and had to wear a black uniform. Many of my patients thought I was a lot younger than I actually was. Once I retired, I cut my hair shorter and have no need for those items... what to do... I finally realized it either comes out in an earring or light gloss. I can't wait to hear your Gamine deep dive. That's what I think my Kibbe ID is. I think that video will finally help me see how put it all together:) I love everything Ingenue, but I have to keep it very toned down on my body. I can still have plenty of flowers and fine china in my house to help me with that fix.

I’m so happy I discovered your videos and your excellent explanations of these different essences! It’s quite striking to me how much more “at home” I feel when you’re talking about an essence I have verses one I don’t. I haven’t been professionally typed, but I feel quite confident in saying I’m a romantic-ingenue-ethereal blend (still determining percentages and what’s most dominant, but knowing they all exist is the first step!) This really does help me embrace things I’ve felt insecure about before and feel more comfortable and confident in my skin than I did before. Thank you so much!

This was enlightening! I wouldn’t have thought this was part of me but now think it might. I have rejected and tried to compensate for “cuteness” because I want to be taken seriously. When it’s all said and done, I think I’m a natural, classic, with a bit of ingenue - maybe 45/35/20. But I’m not sure if I’m a soft natural or soft classic in Kibbe. They’re the only ones I could possibly be. 🤷🏼‍♀️

So I went into this very sure that I have ingenue essence (easy to identify because it annoys me, even though it's a small part of my blend). And I have to say I got some good ideas for how to work around it in a way that fits my personality but isn't just pretending it isn't there. I particularly appreciated the bits about contrasting and adding maturity! (For reference, I'm mostly natural and dramatic, with ingenue as my third piece. Other people notice it way more than I do, but that may just be my attitude getting in my way)

You describe the essence so well, the best description on KZfaq. I love how much work you put into your videos, so very helpful, thank you. I'm soft gamine and i think I have an ingenue essence. I have been told many times I have a baby face , I look so young , I look like a doll , I look like a bratz doll (I never knew how appropriate the bratz doll comment was until getting into kibbie and training my eye, I literally look like a real life bratz doll from head to toe 😂 even to my dress sense. Although my head looks tiny rather than large ) and many, many times told I should be a Disney princess 🤣. I am the description of ingenue on this video, other than I don't have wide apart eyes or a wide or bulbous forehead and I have a diamond face shape ,although it is soft and rounded, which always confused me when looking into the ingenue essence. I think I have a high percentage in romantic essence which also added to the confusion. I have a softer romantic look by the meeting if Romantic and Ingenue bringing the same vibe to my face as Marilyn monroe. I think I'm Romantic , ingenue and gamine with some small level of dramatic. Ingenue doesn't really fit well into my personal style or DA colour season . I have 2 summer dresses that are "flouncy" tea dresses above the knee that work well but they have some level of romantic essence to them too . I can imagine Marilyn's light blue dress looking really lovely on me.

I am SO glad I found you. I watched all of Aly's Kibbe videos and thanks to her I know I am a soft classic. and although her tips matched my appearance completely, it seemed as though it reflects only one aspect of my personality. something was missing and this is exactly it. Now I need to find out the other essences which are less prominent. I am gravitating towards Natural and Classic. girl, this is the best way to spend my day off. thanks so much for your valuable and fun input to this platform. Big hug from Israel :)♥♥♥

I LOVE that you incorporated kibbe + essences and gave outfit ideas for each. I'm fairly certain i'm a soft natural in kibbe, and I know I have a natural essence as my primary. I have a baby face so I suspect I MIGHT have some ingenue essence but my face is probably the only thing contributing towards that essence (so maybe it's a tertiary one?). Not sure what my secondary one would be - maybe classic?

I'm a soft classic kibbe type and was unsure about my essence. This video definitely clarified for me that the ingenue essence was the missing piece! That's why pure classic essence outfits seemed a tiny bit "empty" on me. I was missing the intricate detail and small scale embellishments of the ingenue. I was scared about trying on lace and puffy sleeves and vintage styles because I was afraid I would look like a grandma, but this video makes me feel I can pull off cuteness instead! Love it 🎀

Hi Gabrielle, thank you for your style essence videos, they are absolutely wonderful and very well made!! This is the last one I'm starting to watch.. and I'm already constantly typing people I see. The only problem is, I'm getting more and more confused about my own essence blend, because I truly feel I have at least a little bit of all of them... I'm a complicated person 😊. It's so hard to define a style for myself. Some days I feel like colorful and fun, other days very classic and sophisticated... some days very feminine, some days more masculine. And I feel like I NEED to express all of these different sides with my clothing. It's not about being young and not knowing myself, I'm in my forties and done a lot of self exploration/ inner work. I guess I'm just an ENFP with a very many-faceted personality (and body!). At this point I'm thinking the only option is to have many different styles & colors of clothes for different moods and styles. But I don't have endless resources (=money) or closet space. What to do? It's a mess! 😊

Being matched with kibbe was an odd experience. Funny enough I only wanted to know my "answer," I've continued to wear the pigtails and romantic peasant look lol. My face is heart shaped, fairly full lips, very round eyes, and I'd never heard of that ring around the pupil but I checked and sure enough!

There are situations where it's good to be compliant. We can't all be in charge. It's about knowing who to be compliant to. Also, some people are overly compliant because they are overly trusting and innocent. Which isn't a bad quality if they comply with a good person or learn to protect themselves and look out for red flags in others.

But pastels and frills and delucate fragility have never been appealing to me, I always rebelled against this perception of myself because it does not reflect who I am as a person. It's freeing to see you approach Kibbe and Kitchener's systems as tools and not gospel Although even if it was gospel, I'd rather look bad and discordant to others than feel bad and discordant in my clothes
