The day has come! I’ve unfollowed! She’s so unrelatable to so many now, surely?
I’m just a working class gal from the north and absolutely cannot identify with swanning off to London in a nightie made from Liberty fabric. And the pushing of ads/gifts, which are always so expensive and unrealistic. Will follow here for her escapades in future!

Completely I'm almost certain that Sea quilt coat she's wearing was between 600-800 GBP when she bought it (it's from a previous season, but that's the price of their quilt coats available now). If she didn't get it free/with a #kindlygifted voucher she must be doing very well for herself. Which is fine - but I think she's lost a bit of her USP as she becomes more unrelatable. If that makes sense?

Oops. I’ll re-phrase it. Perhaps if she didn’t spend all her time eating, lying in bed eating and lying in bed watching t.v. and actually walked her dog etc etc . . . I’ll leave it there.

Again, body shaming. It’s the same idea even if you don’t actually write it out. I suggest you remove those posts. People aren’t here for it.

Repetitive, dull content is a valid point, her dress size is absolutely not.

Totally makes sense. I love some of the less ‘out there’ things she wears but at £200 for a short raincoat, it’s just not and won’t ever be viable for me. I’ve kinda lost interest because of it, she never seems to do anything or go anywhere that normal people go lol.
 
I think she is better at what she does than most, she has her values and she sticks with them - small businesses, invesment purchasing, a particular aesthetic - I think she’s considered and careful about what she advertises and she does it properly. At root it‘s just pretty, and pretty insubstantial consumerism though. But I guess, why not.

It’s the lying around in bed I can’t get onboard with and the absolutely kip behind the scenes - did you see the state of her hotel room and all those, said expensive, investment purchases screwed up and tumbling out of her suitcase? Revolting way to treat things. My working class values are too strong not to look at that and think, well how hard have you worked for stuff you ball up and chuck about?

And not to knock it, been there and liked it, but how do you make so much of a couple of days in Bristol? Lordy me.

I think you’ve summed up exactly how I feel. I don’t generally mind her content, I actually quite like the weird ‘Victorian ghost child’ style she has and I do think that compared to many, she does stick by her aesthetic and values.

However, the absolute lack of care she shows for really expensive clothes and belongings is disgusting, and to me just screams she’s absolutely full of privilege and was probably a very spoiled child.
 
How embarrassing for her to be doing a kitchen makeover feature alongside Medina (grillodesigns), who I think is absolutely fantastic at creating inspirational interiors content for renters (and has great personal style and taste). Poor Charlotte's kitchen update is never going to compare.
 
I actually really like her kitchen, it suits her aesthetic and she's kept it to her niche style. It's not a copy of the usual Instagram/Pinterest interior accounts you see. I like that she's kept it true to herself.

However, it's not renter friendly, IMO. That kinda thing has been done better elsewhere. She must've had permission to make those changes, surely??

Im pretty sure the house she lives in is owned by one of her relatives, so not a 'normal' landlord/tenant relationship
