Yes, this 'I spent on £1000 PLT/Zara/Boohoo' type content is getting quite irritating. And then these influencers have the audacity to lecture us on sustainability. Like duck off lool

It’s really tone deaf given the circumstances too. I know so many students who are struggling to get by since they’re out of a job. If she wanted to do a haul she easily could’ve left the price tag out of the title.
They are doing it because Patricia Bright was once talking about how she found a “bait” for viral videos and if you check her channel all her most viewed ones are with the title “I SPENT X POUNDS IN Y STORE”. So I think now all of them want to do the same, but probably not as successful.
she and olivia definitely read their respective threads. Olivia's made several comments as a joke about lewis + flossie not getting along because that's a frequent theme & now flossie's not including sizes in her latest video because it might be triggering and that's the last thing she'd ever want to do to her viewers. Which is appreciated but perhaps she needs to focus on her own triggers with her constant remarks about her own body, "Skinny Girl November" and calling Loren Grey a fat cow. Also - in the come dine with me, I wouldn't have expected anything other than a bland avg pesto from bland florence x
I can't even be bothered to watch their videos anymore
The last full video of Flossie’s that I watched was her PLT haul back in February
I’ve either skimmed through or completely ignored every video since.I swear a lot of youtubers who do big haul vids will buy the clothes n try them on then return them straight after (which is what I imagine the girl you know does cause I’m a student n if I spent hundreds on clothes in one go I’d have to eat bread and water for the rest of the term
)it’s all so performative and shallow I cba
Ok this might just be me but I actually quite enjoyed her latest video, I thought she came across as a bit more down to earth and naturally entertaining than she has recently (I do however agree with all the comments re extortionate fast fashion spending, I bleeping hate influencer/haul culture but yet here I am watching them lol)
but yeah I agree with this, they either get it for free or they spend their own money just for the sake of doing a haul and then send it all back, to make money. i much prefer hauls from less famous yters who genuinely are buying new clothes and want to show their viewersI swear a lot of youtubers who do big haul vids will buy the clothes n try them on then return them straight after (which is what I imagine the girl you know does cause I’m a student n if I spent hundreds on clothes in one go I’d have to eat bread and water for the rest of the term

Yeah I agree with you however I don’t like the fact it’s influencing younger and naive people, I bet half of them think she keeps them all and it’s normal to spend £500 a month on clothes! Then you get them trying to be like their favourite influencer and buying clothes they can’t afford to keep up with the trends. I get some people may have the money for it but what about those who don’t? I know it’s their own personal responsibility to handle their money correctly but I think when you’re younger you don’t have as much experience and knowledge, therefore it’s giving younger people an unrealistic view on shopping and spending! I know I used to get £20 a month until I was 18, then when I got my job it was £300-400 pm, that’s what reality is! Not earning £2000-3000 if not more at the age of 18 because they got lucky on YouTube.I swear a lot of youtubers who do big haul vids will buy the clothes n try them on then return them straight after (which is what I imagine the girl you know does cause I’m a student n if I spent hundreds on clothes in one go I’d have to eat bread and water for the rest of the term

i swear if flossie goes down the route of buying clothes just to do hauls and take insta pics and then sell them on depop immediately (hint hint: sophia and cinzia style), that's gonna be the last straw.
i agree with you i thought her latest video was much more of a chill vibe and better than the others
wonder where she is? that window view on her story doesn’t look like their london flat
Maybe back home?
Yeah, that’s the view from her bedroom at her parents
i’m wondering, if flossie does read here, just a thought that people mentioning her eating disordered behaviours / comments might actually fuel the disorder - i know that when i was unwell when people noticed i wasn’t doing well it actually made me want to carry on lmao. so i wonder if she reads here & it triggers her & then she continues & it becomes a cycle ... i’m probably thinking too deep into it but as someone in recovery from anorexia i KNOW if i had a thread like this i’d 100% read it & trigger myself lol. i hope for her own sake she doesn’t read it too often / let it get to her
It could have been an old pic! Don’t assume the worst! Hopefully she has more sense than to have done that.It looks like she’s back in London again.. what lockdown
Olivia just posted a tiktok with her that is definitely from today, so flossie is deffo back
Flossie and sense don’t even belong in the same sentence tbh
