The trip to Abu Dhabi is sponsored. If anyone else watch French influencer, Caroline Beaute active just went and her trips always match Josie's (Maldives, Ibiza).
Spot on. There is a reason why they are traveling in circles, to the same destinations they've already visited multiple times, although obviously having budget to travel the globe, discovering new places - most of their travelings are sponsored.
But is she spending anything? The dress was probably a freebie or purchased with vouchers. She wants US to buy the blooming' dress so she will get a backhander!!
Exactly. She actually keeps just a fragment of those designer hauls, the rest is going back. On daily basis, she wears her 'Amazon finds' as majority of rational people regardless their financial status. The wealthiest people on the globe are usually the most casually dressed ones.
here's josie wearing culture like a costume. but could we expect any less? she's like those white women who buy abayas and wear them once, out to dinner or something.
I see nothing wrong in POC wearing Caucasian or Asian style wigs and clothing, just as I see nothing wrong in people wearing ethno inspired/themed pieces, or in showing respect/avoiding problems in certain environments by wearing what's considered to be appropriate outfit for that particular culture/environment. It's rather basic knowledge that places of worship, that being mosque, synagogue, temple or church require certain dress code with emphasis on modesty and it's also common knowledge that you should dress appropriately to local cultures when visiting.
I feel certain types of sensitivities are over the board lately, being rather unfounded, intentional and toxic. People tend to get offended for no reason at all, and only legitimate targets lately appear to be Caucasians. White creators' threads here are full of racist bashing and inappropriate comments with no reaction from mods and admins whatsoever. Write something similar about POC or Jewish people and watch how fast you'll be canceled - talking about entitlement and 'non existing racism' in POC community. I am yet to find regular chatty forums that are exclusively Caucasian, while race based Lipstick Alley (POC forum) exists for ages, i.e. And you can find copy/paste comments there that also exist here. Same people don't bash POC or Asian creators, just Caucasian ones. It's just wrong. Stop guilt shame people into self censorship and deprivation of their freedom of speech. Especially if you are showing blatant signs of the same issues you are calling them out for. Racism is not exclusive to Caucasians. On the contrary - now more than ever it's obvious that it's in rampant progression in all ethnic groups. People should not be bullied into apologizing for being white, non vegan, non Jewish or heterosexual. At least I have no intention to. Ever.
