thread title: The Frugality/Alexandra Stedman #9 No wonder she’s absolutely minted, she’s selling all her freebies on Vinted
there you go, just saved myself £12 #frugal£12 ( well £9 plus £3 postage) for matches
This is the kind of detective work I am HERE for!The best before dates on that plane food are 21/7 so she’s been there for almost a week and she’s pretending she just got there last night and posting her “trying on summer outfits” reels while she was already on her holiday
“Alex Stedman: A day off from what, exactly?” is another title option for the next threadA day off. Their annual "day off". A day off from what, exactly?
Bringing the print screens here as love Aja’s point SO much, thank you for sharing this!“Starting to think about my summer wardrobe” - already posted bikini and swimwear stuff, a “joke” about not ironing anything and various other new summer items. Wtf is there left to think about short of “wondering what freebies might come my way for me to flog onwards in some weird attempt to convince people following me that my lifestyle is somehow desirable”
(Anyone else read Aja Barber’s excellent cutting words about these sort of influencers today in light of the Shein shitshow? Summary was to pay close attention to more affluent influencers still banging the drum for sweatshop production and it really feels like it has Alex, Erica, that whole vibe running right through it)
Noticed in comments when someone asked for hotel recommendations she said “we stay in an apartment”.
imagine if she’d given the honest answer: “we stay in my parents apartment.... because I come from wealth, that’s how I manage to go on holiday after mat leave and live in an expensive house in London while working part time. Because, dear followers, it’s a lie that you can have what I do while doing what I do without some generational wealth behind you. So don’t feel bad if you’ve not managed to make do and mend your way to a house deposit, because the truth is no amount of supposed frugality could ever get you there. As a self proclaimed crusader for the average woman I’m just putting that out there so as not to perpetuate this harmful myth. The end. Love Frugal Alex”
