Did anyone sign up for the meatier content subscription? Hopefully it’s not “meaty” in the way certain films Dopey had a starring role in were…

She should have worked harder at her content in order for me to spend 50 quid annually on that. After all, with £50 I can buy groceries for a week and spare a tenner
(I wish!!)Some ‘content creators’ I have followed over the years have moved over to Substack/Patreon and I’ve thought fair enough, I can see why you’re giving it a go.
Not for one minute though have I actually considered subscribing - and this is for content that I have found some value in previously.
I would be SO interested in knowing how many subscribers Alex gets because honestly and truly - her content has been piss poor for a loooong time now. It just baffles me that anyone would actually pay for it.

Maybe that’s where the shop for £40 is finally goingShe should have worked harder at her content in order for me to spend 50 quid annually on that. After all, with £50 I can buy groceries for a week and spare a tenner
Also if her ‘meatier’ content is her rehashing old photos of herself and telling us she still owns all the shoes (easy when you have 100s of pairs) I’ll pass thanks
Another sales pitch for the substack, I wonder how many people have actually signed up?
The majority of ‘spring inspiration’ photos were taken a number of years ago. She says she didn’t tag the outfits because a lot of them are old 
Did she think she’d get away with readers admiring her younger self and not query the brands? Lazy content.
This year she’s learning to be less hard on herself and hopes we are too?
That'll be a no

Good luck to the influencers who are using Substack and providing extra content for paid subscribers but I certainly won’t be subscribing. I can’t see many influencers having a large number of paid subscribers but I guess even if an influencer just gets 100 people subscribing for a year, that’s £500 a month gross which is a nice addition to have. I’m wondering how long it will be before they run out of steam providing extra content for paid subscribers ? Because really, few have anything really interesting to say and they will still need to provide free content to get the numbers clicking on their affiliate links. (Actually, I have considered subscribing to Lisa Dawson because she does write good, interesting interiors blog posts).
No matter what Alex writes, it’s all very un-inspiring from her dreary city guides which are mostly about eating cheap pizza, her gallery guide was basic, her five days of jeans was uninspiring - she did what we all do over and over - grab a pair of jeans and stick a top on with them though she added dressier shoes which is a look from past years and dated now. Her interiors consist of cheap random bits and adding more clutter to her house, nothing creative or interesting.
It‘s the same with a lot of influencers setting themselves up as fashion, interiors or skincare gurus which is fine when they are not charging for their ramblings but earn income from affiliate links - once they start charging for content, they have to up their game and you’d wonder how long before the paid subscribers will drop off. It’s easy to subscribe to few but ofter a while will subscribers cancel, cancel as they realise they’ve signed up to yet another subscription that doesn’t deliver.

Am guessing there’s also the hope that people will subscribe and forget to cancel because it’s only £5, except I think people are a lot more savvy with that now and people like Martin Lewis always banging the drum about checking for used subscriptions etc, not sure as many people keep them running if they’re getting nothing valuable from them
AND she’s wearing demonstrably recently-purchased stuff in most of the little clips, so years it ain’t…! What an odd ball.
Can you see how many susbscribers someone has on Substack like you can on patreon?
So reading that can see followers and they show subscriber numbers but not exact numbers and can choose to have that hidden
More new shoes, a face mask and Pilates today, oh and she multi tasked by recycling her grocery packaging….im exhausted just typing all that, so busy our Alex
Those shoes are hideous! No one wants to see your feet, wearing shoes like that, especially in London gives me the ick. So many germs!
Seems since she’s dropped the frugality lie she’s been on a bit of a shopping spree!
I am 110% sure we will soon be treated to an hilarious reel where ultra-relatable Alex wears those shoes out on a day it’s tipping down with rain.
Just want to mirror what everyone else is saying and say - omg get a bleeping job*/life!!

Her sense of style in those older pics was so much more aspirational then.
Uncanny

Again I ask, days off from what?
Meanwhile even Wordle has Alex on the brain.

Remember when the BBC had an era of doing shows about wayward teens? They’d either send them to some sort of US boot camp, or families in developing nations, or to work everyday jobs? Wouldn’t it be great if they did this for influencers. Not that I’d wish the pair on anyone in the developing world tbf but watching them put in a shift anywhere would be subscribe-able material.
