I was trying to see how old she is the other day (34 if anyone's interested) and googled her. I discovered she has a blog she hasn't updated since Harper was a tot and she was making her first foray in to interiors whilst renting.
She looks amazing in the style pictures on the blog; she didn't have a face full of... stuff, her hair suited her, she had a great casual sense of style, seemed more confident in taking it day by day - it's such a sharp contrast to how she is being lately. She's really changed and become more erratic, insecure and lost her sense of direction and self almost? Wonder if it's the increased financial responsibility of three children, a mortgage (and remortgage), and a reno, ageing which shes clearly over-conscious about, and an unstable relationship where her partner can be cruel to her.
Flicking though that reminded me that i used to quite like her and recently I really don't. She makes me cringe a lot right now. She did the same trick last night with the mexican food place; tagging herself and her family there two day in a row on stories, liking all of their posts since May, but not following them.
I would say she needs a social media break but i can see why she can't - she can't match the income she currently makes through a normal job that she would probably need to go in to at entry level as she has no real job experience (Alex Steadman of the frugality surprised me with her recent blog post on being made redundant where she was open about the salary she earned as a magazine stylist in 2008, £16-17k - I know it's a while ago but its not great given all the travel and can't imagine it's improved much given the pressures on print mags/news), and she needs to be available for the Lennon's childcare and for the girls in the morning and afternoon. At the same time the money vs her mental health and her families well being isn't the best trade off. She did seem calmer when they had the nanny/cleaner coming in a few days a week, she must be under so much pressure.
