She is basically just a QVC presenter in a different format so she has to tell you she loves and buys everything. It’s very distasteful. At least on QVC you know they’re sales people. This is all far more oblique and done under the subterfuge of ‘sharing’ and ‘giving free advice’.

She had one of my fave accounts until she realised she could make more money and go on more holidays by ditching her interesting job and selling crap. But they all go down the same route and it’s a shame, as working is what makes them relatable. Yes, I know she does a bit of music industry work here and there still, but she’s 90% an influencer now. Also, it feels wrong to me to be selling a lifestyle at a time when many people can’t pay their bills.
 
Not usually but doesn't surprise me that she wearing that stuff now. For all she claims relatable most of her clothes are at the expensive end. Then she'll do a condescending "here's some more affordable choices" for the plebs.
I don't follow her anymore but her reel with the brown skirt and 1970 jumper was on my suggested earlier. What a hideous mismatched outfit that was, black Prada loafers, black tights, brown skirt, black and white jumper, black jacket, tan bag. Seriously looked like what I wore to the office in 2005.
Then someone in the comments asked for a link to her tights, a bog standard pair of black tights FFS have we really sunk to this low that people can't even just pick up a pair of tights wherever but need an influencer to endorse some. Naturally it was an Amazon pair so she said she'd happily share the (no doubt affiliated) link in her stories. Anything for a few more ££.
Hilarious this thread is in the "rave" section, sign of how it's gone for her over the last few years.

Her latest reel in the Albaray dresses couldn’t be more cringe. Just her loving herself into her phone.

I follow one of those millennial accounts who is quite funny but she used to be a fashion blogger in the mid 2010s. She did a post on it recently and it was excruciating. All tumblr and filtered in that old insta style. We probably thought it was fab in 2015 and wouldn’t date so quickly. I think these fashion influencers (Kate, Erica, Alex etc.) need to stop and think about the digital legacy that they are putting out there. It isn’t presenting them in a good light and their future selves and families will have that to look back on if they aren’t careful.

She is certainly loving herself in that post. I think she is hanging around with other influences and trying to keep up….but she doesn’t have good natural movement. Very blatant about ordering all of the dresses and only keeping lace one. she used to have a style but unfortunately it’s anything that brings in the £££ so she can buy the ugly Prada shoes. She lives in a very strange world now.
 
The way she was clutching them as well. They must weigh a ton. I understand we don’t all wear sky high heels but surely she can wear more flattering (sorry, Alex) shoes than that?

The brown ones from Bobbies in her “brown, black and green don’t go” reel are horrific.
 
Hanging around with the big time influences now… maximizing freebies. She definitely looks the odd one out. Has she reached peak grift status yet?
