Je Suis Lou

Correct on the tequila brand name! Since it doesn’t seem like I’d be breaking any rules by saying this, “Lucia Beckmann” is her name. As for the GFM, in my opinion, it doesn’t necessarily mean she’s strapped for cash. I think this is just an example of wealthy people not wanting to spend their own money. I had a few very wealthy high school classmates who had yacht club memberships but still did crowdfunding for regatta fees.

I can’t believe she was interviewed about oversized blazers.
 
That's a terrible picture. Like a little girl playing dress up in her mum's clothes.

I wish her travel vlogs weren’t so curated towards White European travelers. We never see any people of color in them. It took 3 South Africa vlogs to finally see someone who was African. 😅 Today, so many things about her made sense. She was a white-passing Mexican living in Mexico, which I’m sure afforded her a lot of privilege and access. Not to mention she is financially privileged and supported by her family’s money.

I have more respect for the influencers that came from humble beginnings and created generational wealth for themselves and start companies so they create job opportunities for others.

Does that make her racist? Like these POC don't fit into her aesthetic so she doesn't feature them? I only watched her first 2 vlogs and was also surprised to see only white european representation

Ooooof, I don’t want to label anyone as a “racist” without seeing repeated behaviors or words that support that moniker. I feel that she surrounds herself with White/white-passibg Europeans and Mexicans, which means her world isn’t very diverse. That is a choice and she could choose to surround herself with more diverse people. I see other influencers that have friends of so many backgrounds and it’s really lovely to see them learning and embracing other cultures. 🩷 Karen and Lisa Napoly and Tamara Kalinic are some that come to mind.

I’ve only seen a couple of her videos, found her because I love handbag videos but is it me or does she have the worlds most boring handbag collection?
I also saw a video where she said she was selling her vintage beige Classic flap from her birth year. WHO goes to the bother of finding one from their birth year and then sells it! Just so she can buy more neutral coloured Hermes bags, that’s crazy!

I will never understand the people who sell the majority of their other brand bags (Chanel) for multiple Hermes bags. Once you have one Birkin, one Kelly, maybe a Constance or a Picotin, why do you need 3 more of the same? It seems so boring. I’d be happy with one Kelly 28, but I don’t want the same style in a bunch of sizes and colors.

Agree! If I had a chance to get Hermes bags, I’d probably get a Birkin 30 in Gold Togo and GHW, Kelly 28 in Black Epsom, GHW and a Constance 24 in Craie/any white color in GHW too. Then I’d get a picotin and an evelyn in a fun color.

That’s it.

I do not think she is conscious about the whole ethnic thing, is just how things are in upper-high Mexican class people. We are all mixed if you look at our ancestry but when most of your family tree is European, you end-up being this breed of Latino - Mexican - etc that "looks European" and that actually holds an European passport. I do not like the phrasing white passing because is not a term we use in Spanish, like, never. It does not exist as a translation or with a similar cultural term.

What does exist is the concept of "Pija" in Spain or "Fresa" in Mexico, which are terms very applicable to Lou, is like "Posh" but very derogative, because Fresas tend to hang around in a bubble. You may find it interesting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresa_(slang)

Lou is clearly from upper-Mexican class which is less than a 1%, even if half her bags were fake when living in Mexico, it was till an OBSENE collection for a young Mexican gal. So far she made her career from sharing her bubble-fresa lifestyle and kind of worked.

She is light-skinned, yes. But her facial features are not "Caucasian," if that makes sense? That's why she looks so odd. Is her hair color natural, or is she dyeing it a very light color to achieve that "look?"

Her father is Spanish and her mother is German. She was born and raised in Mexico. When she lived in Mexico, she mentioned a number of times that she is Mexican.

When she moved to Spain, she rebranded herself as Spanish.

Ugh, I just can't help but cringe at the idea that someone has the nerve to bring a birkin to ski...

I'm really interested in her best friend Kasia, does anyone have tea? So she's Polish with clearly very rich parents who have a house in South Africa

Reviving a dead thread. I still watch Lou but the amount of body checking and frolicking is getting weird.
