I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS STATEMENT. THANK YOU.It's finally not white people's fault! Rofl.
Just a moment of levity...
I thought that was so gross. Black people are allowed to vote for whoever they want to! This kind of milquetoast politicking is disgusting to me. You need to work for every vote because it is not a foregone conclusion that just because someone has melanin they'll automatically like Biden because of his Obama connection (or even that they'll like Obama but that's neither here nor there). It's so icky.
One things I never understood is why hasn’t Elle ever taken a girlfriend to Hawaii with her? She goes every year you would think just once she would like to bring a girlfriend along. I understand it’s her moms place and all but she has had boyfriends there why not a girlfriend during these single times. Even when not single it’s nice to get away with the girls. She only goes on trips with significant others. I think it’s telling that either A) Elle has no real close girlfriends to invite and/or B) Elle expects her Mom or boyfriends to foot the bill on vacation. I just think of my own experience and I have boyfriend but also go on girls trip with my girlfriends sometimes too. My family also has a couple vacation properties that I always invite friends to.I checked out the places Elle eats in Hawaii and some restaurants she eats at are really fancy. She and Ginette ate the Chef's tasting menu at some of the better restaurants in Honolulu. Of course she and Ginette doesn't eat there often but she does. I'm not sure anyone can go do the tasting menus more than once a month because the food is a lot.
I don't understand why Elle doesn't go by herself to boozy brunches or fancy teas. There is no shame hanging out by yourself. I prefer the flexibility of going whenever and wherever I want personally. And Vancouver club often has parties where all members can attend.
I don't recall Elle having any close girlfriends, or any real friends to be honest. The "Dolls" seem to get together once in a blue moon to pose on a boat or the Vancouver Club, but I don't think they actually hang out with Smelle regularly. I haven't really seen her with any other friends.One things I never understood is why hasn’t Elle ever taken a girlfriend to Hawaii with her?

Exactly! The same applies to going out to nice restaurants, bars, concerts, plays etc Either she has no friends or she really doesn’t want to pay half the bill or for her own ticket.One things I never understood is why hasn’t Elle ever taken a girlfriend to Hawaii with her?

The problem with Elle is that I don't think she can ever be too rich at the rate she wants to spend her money. You can spend $20-30 million easily that way. I mean some NBA players etc... blow through hundreds of millions (literally) and live old age in poverty. You need to know how to manage money no matter what income you have. Knowing how to live well on the income you have is an art.She doesn’t go by herself cos she has to pay.
Professional women at her age can afford to eat at nice restaurants and go out.
The fact that Elle only ever goes on Ginette’s dime or a boyfriend says a lot about her disposable income and priorities. She enjoys good food and travel, why not use her own money? Because she’ll have to cut down on other purchases & she’d rather have a new YSL purse. She’s not wealthy enough to have it all.
Elle is a user and grifter. She’ll maximize everyone’s wallet so she can keep whatever she earns for herself to splurge on goods that can she can brag about or affiliate link
If she were an actual trust fund baby, had wealthy parents/ spouse etc she would splurge on it all. Have a nice apartment, fashionable clothing, in season designer goods, an actual heirloom jewelry collection, nice meals on the regular instead of bringing soup to work, international vacations, the works.
ginette is generous but not loaded, she used to have a decent salaried job and a lot of spare cash from her scams especially in peak YouTube days. Nowadays, with the lack of a regular pay check, fluctuating scam money and no boyfriend to foot the rent, she finds David’s tea and Dry bar expensive & can only afford the ugliest of designer bags
Her work trip vlogs were always so extra. She acted like eating an entire pizza and a bowl of pasta in her mid-tier hotel room while watching Netflix was the epitome of luxury.She dresses up for her cubicle job and pretends her yearly work trip is something fancy whenever it’s just training seminars...
I opened the conversation because I enjoy speaking with y’all and getting to know your opinions, but I was very clear that because this IS about Elle, no one was to feel compelled to respond in any way. We discussed the issues in a fairly light way for about 20 minutes, and the conversation has been about Elle ever since then.I get that we’re all educated women/men here who have a lot more to bring to the table for political discourse than Elle does, but did we need to turn the one escape from reality (this forum and all things Elle Florence) many of us had into another election coverage forum? Yes, it’s important, but there are infinity other platforms for that, this was the one humorous, light-hearted outlet I had, and now it has also pivoted toward the election (again, insurmountably important, but very heavy and not suitable for this venue).
I miss the Elle tea.
But she doesn't have any friends.One things I never understood is why hasn’t Elle ever taken a girlfriend to Hawaii with her?

She has no friends indeed. Remember how she always used to film Christmas gifts she got for her co-workers, Joe, The Dolls™? But she never filmed wrapping any gifts for a friend, not even in Joe days which were the pinnacle of showing off and filming every minute detail of her life.
Now imagine you're her friend (you'd clearly need to be very open minded to spend time with someone so shallow and vapid). It's getting to Christmas time. She turns up to your coffee meeting wearing Jimmy Choo boots, Burberry coat, Chanel bag in hand. Hair freshly blowdried at a Dry Bar. You exchange Christmas gifts. You tried to get her something thoughtful, maybe a great coffee table book on precious stones and spectacular jewellery because you know she's into jewellery, or a pretty porcelain tea pot. You open the gift from Smelle and find Sephora moisturiser samples, a mini version of a lipgloss in an unflattering shade, and a pair of wonky earrings that look like a child made them. You are confused because her outfit of the day is worth $4k but the gift she gave you cost her $10. After the meeting you realize she's a nasty cheapskate and you feel like a fool for spending more than 10 minutes picking the present for her.
I don't know who wants to be friends with her. It looks exhausting to be honest. She seems the type of person who is self absorbed and only interested in talking about herself. I mean we get exhausted just looking at her videos.She has no friends indeed. Remember how she always used to film Christmas gifts she got for her co-workers, Joe, The Dolls™?

Yeah, that's why she has no friendsI don't know who wants to be friends with her. It looks exhausting to be honest. She seems the type of person who is self absorbed and only interested in talking about herself. I mean we get exhausted just looking at her videos.
And all her giggles, oh I know this type of giggles. It’s the you’re in an extremely lame party, you were thinking why the fuck am I here, but I have to pretend I’m having fun giggles; all I’m giggling from cheek to cheek but my eyes are dead empty type of giggles . I can’t deal with her, as a friendShe has no friends indeed. Remember how she always used to film Christmas gifts she got for her co-workers, Joe, The Dolls™?

I think Eleanor Florence is the type of person that’s really difficult to be friends with. She is self-centered, inconsiderate, and generally seems to have zero empathy (remember the Uber driver incident?). All of this is tied together by a complete lack of morals where she has zero qualms about taking advantage of other people (Ginette, her exes, subscribers, Seattle locals via DailyHive, “friends” like MDS, etc.) as long as it benefits herself. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to be friends with her. Notice how “the Dolls” only seem to tolerate her occasionally because they want exposure via her Instagram account and YouTube channel for their own influencer/business pages. Elle knows she doesn’t have friends so she’ll put up photos of her and the dolls when they hang out (the few times a year they do) to make her seem more social and in return, they get exposure. MDS and her seem to have fallen out (judging by Elle’s passive aggressive reactions at the mere mention of her) but even if they didn’t, they’ve lost touch and I’m guessing it’s because once Natalie closed her YouTube channel, she realized that Smelle was a terrible friend and liar and had no practical reason for associating with her.Yeah, having to deal with her weird giggles all the time would be unbearable. And the way she fake smiles at people when talking to them in that condescending way (as if she's interviewing a child or something)...I just remember that was really on display when she was with her friend Ricardo (?) at one of her B day parties.
And she didn't do herself any favors in the friend department when she went to college in the UK. There's something unique about the college environment and college age that is great for meeting lifelong friends. Many of my friends, those who know me the best and who I trust the most, are college friends. It's still possible to build close friendships as one gets older, but it's harder, I feel. But with Elle, most of her college classmates are overseas. She missed out on having a good friend and professional network in her own country.
I think something else must have happened between my daily sweet and Elle. MDS was religiously following her own guru gossip thread, so must have kept up and read Elle’s. MDS was likely always using Elle for exposure too. Maybe Natalie went to talk to Elle about what happened and it erupted from there.I think Eleanor Florence is the type of person that’s really difficult to be friends with.

I agree that they probably did fall out over something vs. just falling out of touch given how touchy Eleanor is whenever someone mentions Natalie. I can totally see Elle throwing a fit if Natalie spoke to her about the GG threads, insisting that she "doesn't answer to rumors" when we all know she's embarrassed that people have discovered her lies and have the receipts to back things up.I think something else must have happened between my daily sweet and Elle.

Given she didn’t answer the question, I’m gonna guess she’s still unemployed, but too embarrassed to admit to it.ladies, what is she talking about? Is she really working at the moment??
