Did you all see her Mirror Water “interview”? They’ve positioned her as a book influencer or whatever with advice of “it’s okay to not finish a book”. Maybe I’m just judgmental, but I always finish books. Even if I don’t necessarily jive with them, I still want to know the ending. I’ve read so many books that start off slow or confusing but then halfway through there’s an ah ha moment and I can’t put the book down.
I guess whether to DNF or not is up to the person reading but just posting a book cover and saying “Don’t bother reading something that you do not enjoy” does not make you a book influencer, period. What was the last time Lizzy actually wrote an original, meaningful review of a book she read? Oh yeah, that never happened.
I HATE the way she talks about Portugal! Portuguese houses don’t have any heating? What the hell is she talking about? Of course they do!
I hate how she fetishizes Portugal, it’s such a gorgeous and hospitable country and her posts hardly reflect that 🙄 I guess all the countries, be it Mexico, Portugal or the USA, are the same to those influencers, they just want a pretty picture of themselves in the skimpiest clothing possible.

To be fair I live in the south of Spain and all the houses there don't have heating so I wouldn't be surprised, it's because it gets so so hot in the summer so they're built to keep cool, which means it does get suuuper cold inside in the winter months. We have to rely on electric heaters which isn't ideal, but the colder season usually only lasts a month or two

I’m Portuguese and while I guess heating isn’t as good here as in the UK (because we are a very warm country) we definitely have heating. Most people have heating unless they live in a small remote village.

It just annoys me that she acts like Portugal is in the middle of nowhere when it’s literally pretty close to the UK actually.

She lowkey acts like Portugal is beneath her, it’s irritating.

She defo seems like that person who goes abroad and doesn't try to get to know the country beyond its tax laws at all - speaks only english, hangs out with her pals who speak english, doesn't go off road... But mention the country and suddenly boom, she's an expert, basically a local at this point. 🤡

Also, does anyone remember when she went there for the first time and constantly posted pics of asian/black children on her stories? That was weird af.
 
I guess she thought it was…woke? Inclusive? But I agree with you, it was very weird and even creepy. Who on earth takes pictures of random people, especially children, without permission?
If she thought posting random kids of colour on her stories was inclusive, she's even more stupid than I thought, lol. Snapping pictures without permission and posting them for your audience is bad enough, but when it's all just poc, it reminds me of those people who describe everyone who doesn't look 100% caucasian as "exotic" and then proceed to ask where they are reaaaally from.
 
People like Lindsey travel to foreign places and post photos of only the most photogenic scenery and perfectly posed selfies. Meanwhile, they don't speak the language, don't like the food, don't try to follow the local customs, and complain whenever it DARES to be different from their home country. Then once they're home, they'll drop a list of their expert "recommendations".

And also, when she was teasing the launch of the silly towel business, she was reposting random photos of east asian children. That was a very strange thing to do considering her towels had nothing to do with Asia or little children. Just weird AF. Like you said, she's trying to be diverse/inclusive/woke but it's just giving ignorant vibes + bordering on white saviour complex.
 
Surely Lizzy will quit this year? Her engagement is terrible. Less and less brand deals. Less effort in her content. She's surely weeks away from stepping back.

I don't think she will because being on social media gives her a false sense of purpose and direction, without it I think she'll realise the pointlessness of her life and the fact that she literally does nothing, she certainly doesn't work, and the depression will set in
 
We get it Lizzy. You read here and you don't give a duck what anyone thinks. You still aren't funny, or smart. I still feel sorry for you.

Yep. She loves the attention and misguided sense of validation too much. She's so anxious that without the protective bubble of social media encouraging her self-worth, she'd implode in about .02 seconds.
 
But confused by this kitchen revamp. She doesn’t want to share her personal life I understand friends and relationships. But the only save a grace she has at the moment is house content… definetly not fashion and honestly not even interior design. House looks a mismatched mess. I don’t even know this woman yet she infuriates me with her carelessness.
 
does anybody know how many times has lizzy moved continents since the beginning of 2023? I don't follow her on yt and usually cannot tell the difference between her ny and london content but even to me it seems like she's bleeping from one country to another every two weeks 💀
 
Influencer Lizzy isn’t faring well, is she? Lizzy’s being kept afloat by fast fashion brands take the JCrew and Mango ads away and she’s left with barely anything. I don’t think Lizzy has the integrity to quit though and I’ve always thought she’ll hang on until influencing is no long financially viable. Lizzy is where she is because of the inheritance, it has always subsidised her lifestyle, and I think her longevity as an influencer really does depend on how much of it she has left.

The longevity of NY will most likely be down to the inheritance too. Going from what Lizzy’s posted on IG she left NY around the November 23rd and has only spent three weeks there since. Her rent on that apartment is around £3k a month, so Elizabeth’s literally paid £3k for every week she’s spent in the NY apartment since November - that’s bonkers even by Lizzy’s standards. Especially when you consider the reason behind it was Joanna spending those three months in Australia.

In a way I think New York is bittersweet for Lizzy. She probably wanted the apartment because Linda had an apartment in Portugal but by the time Lizzy’s US visa came through and she got the apartment Linda was already moving back to London. Lizzy must live for the dopamine rush she gets from copying people and the inheritance has always given her the means to facilitate it. What’s the point of it now? She goes to NY to be Joanna’s shadow and skulk around for a few weeks at a time. Was it all worth it because a guy in a coffee shop let her take a cup away?

Started the year in London, end of January she went to New York for literally a day or two.
Went to Mexico for around two weeks gate crashed Linda’s solo surfing trip, had food poisoning and predictably used it as an excuse to do nothing there once Linda left.
Went back to New York for the rest of February, around three weeks.
Back to London around March 2nd.

Linda also had food poisoning in Mexico and then she had it again in Portugal, twice in one month. Who on earth follows her and thinks Marnie Rays is a good idea?
