Agreed to most of this but when I was a stripper you could claim back on underwear hair nails etc basically anything that was to do with appearance so I’m not sure maybe influencers can claim to a degreeInfluencers can’t just write everything off as a business expense and claim the money back. That’s not how it works.
I think the majority of her stuff is from these fake boutiques you get on Instagram (e.g places that resell from DHGate), plus it’s easy enough to take pictures buying things in a shop and then return at a later date.
Influencers have admitted that’s what they do and I run a business so know it can be done and it’s not free it’s a business expense, 2 different things. Also accountants encourage you to write things off as a business expense.Totally agree! All I meant was she’s not getting Prada jackets & Dior rings for free
I am influenced by them. To not purchase anything they have - bought, gifted or otherwise. I am genuinely so turned off by anything associated with them. Gives me the boke.Anyone else just bored of scrolling through Instagram looking at the same old pics of these influencers, who are they actually influencing because it's certainly not me. Obviously influencing each other because they all seem to dress exactly the same. On the subject of moneys etc I couldn't care less what Abbie is earning, if she's making good money then good for her, everyone has to make a living and how she chooses to spend her money is upto her. I certainly wouldn't be buying those ugly wee bags etc but each to their own.
You don’t write things off as a business expense and get the money back though - You simply get tax relief on the items - you still pay for them. You can also claim back the VAT if your business is VAT registered.Influencers have admitted that’s what they do and I run a business so know it can be done and it’s not free it’s a business expense, 2 different things.

Love the puntin cheap,shite fast fashion lineYou don’t write things off as a business expense and get the money back though - You simply get tax relief on the items - you still pay for them. You can also claim back the VAT if your business is VAT registered.
That goes for computers and phones and printers and uniforms. Not dior rings. There is no way on earth HMRC would agree that a dior ring was essential for her business. Not a chance.
Her business is punting cheap, shite fast fashion.
Even if they agreed she needed this ring to run her business, all it would mean is that her tax bill was slightly lower. She’s not getting anything for free.
Don’t remember saying anything about a Dior ring but ok I’ll just leave this here (this is just one source feel free to research yourself). I think you misunderstood my post I wasn’t saying it was free I was saying it was a business expense that you can write off, the more you write off the better as like you have said tax relief and vat claims, if you are doing this then you will have more money to afford these things as opposed to not doing itYou don’t write things off as a business expense and get the money back though - You simply get tax relief on the items - you still pay for them.

These photos are just some random website. HMRC will audit someone that’s claiming tax relief on designer clothes. 100%.Don’t remember saying anything about a Dior ring but ok I’ll just leave this here (this is just one source feel free to research yourself).

I just had a look there.. wonder what it is? LA Confidential? Lee Allan Confidential? Anyone got a clue?You could always check companies house where the financials are displayed... although I am a bit of a twit not sure how to understand the breakdown of it all does that display the tax relief? She and the bf have equal shares in the Ltd company it seems.
