Kat Farmer - DMBL40

[Renegadedancer]

Seems like she’s spending as much time at her second home as possible, tagging the local eateries for free food and wine. Aldeburgh is a lovely area, they don’t need an influencer telling us all how great the fish and chips are.
Sometimes I like her and find her relatable in terms of posts about ageing mostly. But am I influenced by her budget trips to IKEA to furnish her very expensive second home, no. Not when the outfit she’s wearing on the beach is a £300 dress, £1500 handbag and £300 trainers. She’s very very privileged and a weeks worth of posts about the second home is a bit self absorbed.

Her style is really bad ... I must admit I did prefer her in her very early days pre insta. Now she is just a walking advert for all the brands she gets money off.

The photos are staged like all influencers but wow hers ... the manic laughter shot she looks like she should be in the loony bin!

She wouldn’t influence me to buy anything because I thinks she looks bloody awful these days.... like she has raided her Grandmas wardrobe as a over grown 3 year old.

I loved her early style, when she stood by her landing mirror and took photos.
mango, Zara, primark... much better style and affordable.

If we ever get to a second thread, the only thing it can be is Kat Farmer DMBL40 #2 Tone deaf

 

[AmberSpyglass]

She’s a knob.

I stopped following her after she flogged margarine, I’ve just gone over to see her posts and she’s as money hungry and as arrogant as ever.

This was my poor friends response. I don’t think people are being nasty - just highlighting the insanity of social media sometimes :
Please just unfollow if you don’t like it. Genuinely im just trying to hold it together and frankly, messages like this make me wonder why I work 7 hr days, 7 days a week for literally no income. People are dying, the majority I know have had to shut their businesses or have absolutely no income. So I’ve adapted my feed and have been trying to be respectful in light of most people’s lives tanking. And there has been some fashion, there will be more, If you don’t like the “random interviews or rants or I don’t know”, all of which by the way is content that takes a significantly long time to produce with a lot of strategic thought behind it during these unprecedented times, may I suggest you follow some of the other accounts who are churning out just what they used to, regardless of attempting to “read the room”. I’m sorry if this sounds harsh, I’m utterly exhausted and to receive such a message, really just upset me

Is this a message from Kat anyhow, if it is the opening bit about working 7hrs a day 7 hrs a week really boiled my piss, and I suspect she wouldn’t see why, which equally boils my piss

On yet another #gifted cruise, not long having had Christmas in their new holiday home

She just had a Chanel handbag for Christmas and yet she’s in Miami looking at buying some other bag.

Clearly never satisfied with anything and it just makes her look spoilt and ungrateful.

I was actually there when she was on the beach in the green dress, there was so much fabric it nearly took off

Was it one of her poor children taking the photo?! I think she looks completely insane in some of them.
That ‘this photo is completely natural. I’ve no idea it’s being taken and I often just swirl around on the beach grinning inanely in billowing dresses’ is hilarious! I’d love to see it in action!

 

[TescoSainsburys]

I would respect her more if she stayed in her lane (fashion ??). But prancing about her kitchen flogging cheese yikes !!!
Certainly doesn’t need the cash it has sold out and flogging everything like everyone else !!

the iconic ads make me lol. I thinkI must be pretty old school because I still can’t put my head round an influencer or blogger being a actual job !!

I just think of it as QVC now.

 

[Raker]

Ah, but in terms of absolute “tone deafness”, please do contrast and compare with vacuous airhead Chloelovestoshop.... Kat comes out of that one with a veritable halo...

 

[Jenfoster]

So many people that I follow are helping me move closer and closer to ending my love(hate) affair with instagram. The latest offering from Kat - green nana trousers for the purposes of an AD could be the final nail in the coffin. They are disgusting and she would never ever wear them. So it must be time for me to log off surely !!!!!

I'm sure getting paid to go on holiday/sell clothes is lovely but, my god, it's a vapid existence isn't it? I mean WTF is she* contributing to the world? What drives her to do this every day (her husband is rich, so greed?). How does she justify such a futile "job"? I understand people doing meaningless/ unfulfilling work if they need money but what motivates her to pursue such a pointless career? Ego I suspect plays a big part.

*Not just her, all lifestyle influencers.

 

[Pennypuppywalker]

Spot on about the styling!, she looks like she gets dressed in the dark. Cracks me up that she thinks she's SO out there with her wacky style, she looks a mess most of the time. Its the posing out on the street, if I saw her having her photo taken I think I would piss myself!

 

[TescoSainsburys]

I think it's so "funny" that Kat has sold out. When she started she did a few blogs that mentioned some home accessories from Matalan/Ikea/Etsy etc. I sent her a message and said that I thought she had great home taste and should do more home stuff. She replied with a very rude response which basically said "No, it's a fashion blog"... funny we can all change our minds when being paid!

 

[Newbie mcnewface]

From margarine to cheese ...what will be next!

Trying to go plastic free when she buys stick on nails

 

[Newbie mcnewface]

I had to unfollow last year. I do dip in and out though. I see from her stories she is working from home. Wasn’t she always working from home and standing in h and m changing rooms every other day ??

 

[nowimallovertheshop]

That’ll be the lack of regular Botox

 

[Pennypuppywalker]

Erm... those stories about “the secret to her new face” as a bare minerals ad... isn’t the secret to her new face a whole load of filler and Botox??

Definitely, as if using Bare Minerals make up gives you massive cheekbones!! Pleeeaasee!!!

 

[Raker]

Why all the “its” ? Unnecessary.

 

[motherofdonkeys]

I saw her stories a few weeks ago when she was on holiday and she was complaining about a distressed toddler on the adult beach , she was asking if she should complain as it was disrupting her peace and quiet. ( it’s on here somewhere and I’m paraphrasing)

Turns out she’d got it wrong ( child wasn’t on the adult part) but she was being very judgmental and seeing as she has always asked for patience and non judgement regarding her own child who has special educational needs she was quick to have a moan when the upset child was affecting her.

Agree on that one, even if she was right about the child being in the beach area for adults, why publicly story having a moan, so many grammers have no quality filter, they really need to be more selective about what they do and don’t post. They’d probably find if they posted less of the stuff that makes them look like a c*** then they’d actually get criticised less.

Another day and here’s Kat in her second home trying on £800 worth of dresses that she might order in a size down as well just to see if it’s a better fit.
Not relatable at all and it’s crass.
