Thoughts? I feel like her latest vlog was an example of applying a fast fashion perspective onto home decor. Buying trend led bits & pieces that you grow out of after 3 years. and chuck it all out to delve into a new trend.... seems to be relevant to a lot of bloggers nowadays, usually "kindly gifted" too, but like the era of massive primark hauls, it creates a sort of warped idea of consumerism, if it's viewed normal to "rip it up and start again" so often.

Remember when she used to do HUGE Zara try-on hauls? And she’d order clothing in fabrics she’d never own (eg polyester) so she always knew it was going to be sent back after the try on. This is despite 80% of returned online shopping stock going straight to landfill!

No idea if she’s still doing this sort of content as I tuned out a few years ago. Probably shamed into halting it by now.
 
I can’t quite put my finger on it but they seem very rehearsed. I feel like there’s been moments when they’re doing something random just for vlogging content but act as if they didn’t know the other one was filming, if that makes sense. Such a shame I feel this way now because I do really like her, she was the only youtuber I would love to watch at one point!
 
I stopped following Emma since I couldn't handle the way she speaks and her boring hoard of clothes. Her fake sustainability and hauls were too much for me. I'll watch a travel vlog if its recommended on YT but that's it.

I've replaced her with Signe from Use Less, she's Danish. Highly recommend for sustainability, minimal style and home decor. They recently bought a new house and are completely renovating it themselves.

Signe is terrific. I’d love to see more YouTubers like her.
 
Just watched her latest vlog - haven't watched her or seen anything of her for ages and OMG she looks so rough, what's happened to her, her face looks terrible, her hair is horrendous and she looks like she's aged ten years? Also this makeover she's done of her bedroom is really bad, lamps with wires hanging from them! oh dear!
 
I have been loosely following their renovation now, they are going all in aren't they. They are even planing on gettin a new sofa even though the one they have was is only a year or two old. I also realized that they have not been using the studio recently (the one in te garden that they spent quite a bit of money on).

How long until they change their mind and do changes to their house/ studio again?
 
I love renovation videos, but usually people don't just go from one type of content to another without further explanation. Her blog has not been updated since late November last year, so I don't really know how they can afford all the work they are doing. Maybe they are just making most of the influencer lifestyle before the bubble burst, they can probably put some of the renovation expenses as business expenses and get the money back later🤷‍♀️

Edit: found a fashion post for early December 2019!

Fair enough if she wants to do house content but she could at least do one fashion video one week then home video the next.
 
Watching her new non renovation video and I think that neck botox she had may have been a mistake. What was bothering her actually looks more pronounced now 🙈
 
Really like her, I know this post is probably for the rave thread. She’s obviously well off and I can agree with the previous hauls she used to do being a bit much. I love what they’ve done to the house, Sharing the how to’s etc but she’s really interactive and nice when I’ve responded to things where we’ve ended up having a good chat. She’s harmless.
