I know this isn’t the thread for backofthewardrobe, but she has been discussed here so...

She is touting some Baukjen leather trousers at £349 a pop, telling us that yes, they are an investment piece, but so so worth. Bloody easy for her to say that when they were gifted to her. It really grinds my gears when “influencers” flog expensive gear that they themselves haven’t paid for, as well as posting an affiliate link to the item so they can earn money off us to boot!

Did you see a few weeks ago that she mentioned "someone" had shown her the comments about her on here.

I wonder how much money she’s made from people buying that back massager from Amazon- she certainly knows how to make money from those innocent looking swipe ups! 😡

I used to really like Helen but feel she’s just in it for the money now. She only ever does try ons of clothes she’s paid to try on whereas she used to try from a wide range of shops. Plus she must put about 20 links up a day of random items she hasn’t even tried, she absolutely canes the affiliate links. Really gone off her. Plus she never showed us anything from matalan, mandco, jdw before but now they’re paying her she makes out they’re the best shops on earth! So painful.

The holiday stories are just manic! I used to really like Helen and she normally replies to dm’s but there’s no need to story about everything! Her friends look a bit uncomfortable with all the filming too. And I cannot deal with another round up of all the crap on Look Fantastic 🤯

Agree - the beige one especially looks bad, but she’s getting paid by the brand, so has to gush about all the outfits, shoes, beauty products and so on. That’s the problem with this type of account that is constantly selling - it causes a frenzy and relies on the FOMO. She’s even got a new hashtag #40plusmademedoit - maybe she’s trying to be like Mrs Hinch? 😂

I feel she just needs to slow down sometimes, too much nervous energy maybe. With the posts on stories, it's quality not quantity

You know it! How can she jump on the Sweaty Betty bandwagon if she spends all day shovelling aldi or m&s food into her face? Incidentally every "influencer" is peddling SW, I for one will never ever buy any of it!

They are! Everyone and their dog has a code for SB, Chloe loves to shop posted one, Fashionable Pan is wanting on about her leggings. I like them but are they really all that?! I’ll wait until the sale - which I’m sure will be a good one!

I quite like some of her recommendations but can never put the sound on as she tends to sound so 'on the edge' the whole time

Jeez, I’ve had enough of her now. Sooooo boring and repetitive. She seriously needs some (new) content.

You know if they’re on companies house they must be raking it in from all these swipe ups. Makes very interesting reading for a lot of these bigger IG accounts.

She does always bang on about her M&Co jeans but I find it really hard to believe she actually wears anything from there! 🤣
