I started following Claire because she had some knowledge of fashion than “this is cute” and she didn’t buy the same things everyone else did (she got the Magda Butrym boots in two colours).
But I unfollowed about 6 months later. The super thin skin, making things into dramas that aren’t dramas. Some poor follower asked if Love Shack Fancy dresses are short because it looks like it on Claire. Well, she lost her mind at her! “I’ve got the legs for short dresses, that’s what I was known for at Uni, wearing short skirts, I’m comfortable with it, I can pull it off”. Etc etc. She could have just given her height, said where it hits on her, make up some story that her friend is shorter and it’s fine on her. Who knows maybe that follower would have bought it on her swipe up? When you see that so often, when she’s nice in her comments you just think fake!
Also, I’m shallow and I just want to look at fashion and style. I don’t want Q&A’s with their partners/husbands or “hubby asks me questions”. They went away on a trip to France and everything was shot like a perfume commercial and it was just one big ad for his travel company.
He was in banking or something and made heaps of money doing that. And I’m guessing with all her “Paris was made I didn’t like the cake that cost $12 (USD)” or “Paris asked how many Chanel t-shirts I get for $1,200”. That it is his money she’s spending.
I can’t remember her name but one if her best friends works at Net-a-Porter so that’s why she was getting deals with the quite early on - and how I thought she was a proper fashion player, net-a-porter throwing vouchers at her to buy stuff.
