5 ft 4 isn't short. It's the average height of women in Britain.

I'm 5 foot 4 and I consider myself short for a couple of reasons: firstly, it's hard to buy clothes that fit me properly - most stuff is cut for a woman 3 inches taller than me, but obviously I'm too tall for petites. Secondly, people (especially men) comment on my height
So although 5 foot 4 is average, it's still considered "short" by lots of people.
She looked shorter than 5 foot 4 when I saw her
I've always thought she was shorter than that too, maybe 5'1 ish
That's strange. I'm 5 foot 4 and have never considered myself short and no-one ever tells me that I am. I don't have a problem with clothes either.I'm 5 foot 4 and I consider myself short for a couple of reasons: firstly, it's hard to buy clothes that fit me properly - most stuff is cut for a woman 3 inches taller than me, but obviously I'm too tall for petites.

Yep she looked about that. Keep in mind I am the height of shite of myself so for me to call anyone short is saying something
So according to Google she‘s only 5foot

She said she was 5’4 in another video too but looked shorter than Ingrid, who says she’s 5’3. Whatever she is, though, I know she finds fashion inspiration from much taller bloggers, so it never looks quite right on her.
Dude, she must be really in love with herself if she didn't get bored of that same old style already.
Her mum and sister are also blonde, is that a status symbol in their circle (proud brunette asking)
It doesn't do anything for her.
It's kind of just all you see in photos. This big, heavy pair of curtains full of expensive highlights trailing down over her shoulders.
I have curly, thick hair and I chopped it off into a blunt bob during lockdown because who wants to be endlessly drying, tonging, deep conditioning and colouring a massive mop at the moment.

It’s called a puddle when the curtains hit the floor and it is fashionable and is also a look a favour TBH.
I think it could well be. When I was growing up it was very much the done thing for the private school girls in my town to have this slightly messy looking loooooong head of thick blonde hair. Perhaps status symbol in a way, especially when you’re younger in a ‘my mum takes me to get £100 highlights’ type of way..
For those from the UK, Fleur absolutely fits into the archetypal 2010s jack wills / Land Rover / springer spaniel crowd, and for a lot of that crowd the style doesn’t really change and the hair/clothes etc remain the same well into people’s 30s.
Of course with Fleur you’ve got the added aspect of her edgy / rock vibe she tries to create, and I don’t really know what she’s going for here. Is it to distance herself from the country/posh crowd? Is it to look like her style has actually developed over the years?
To me, style is about telling the world something through the way you dress, and expressing yourself, but I can’t really work out what she’s trying to tell us with the whole edgy thing ..
I’m in the Netherlands, and we only hardly have private schools here too. Usually only for rich kids who failed in the regular system and need to pass their exams in a more controlled setting. It’s expensive, but not as expensive as private (or public really) schools in the UK.
This is not like the situation in the UK at all. The private schools system there does often help you in better opportunities for university and the future.
There are lots more differences between the Germans/Dutch school systems that make it hard to compare to the UK, but let’s just say, any opinion you may have on private schools in Germany does not apply in the UK.
Those differences are fascinating. Where I am from, private schools and colleges are also looked down upon and are mostly reserved for dropouts or someone who needs a degree without trying (think Community sitcom) or for kids of really rich parents (which then often times fail to qualify for a place at public universities).
