Quoting myself so you know what the heck I'm on aboutOh dear Georg has deleted loads of her videos and privated a few, so I can't go back to find out about the darkness in her life. Laura has left loads of her old videos up, but she's not one to spill on her friends personal affairs, so I'll have to remain largely in ignorance (apart from what Tattlers have told me) when Georg refers to her "dark period".
Which one, she's moved quite a lot?This is her. All smoke and mirrors. Drags suitcases about changing in alleyways to shoot more content. Didn’t have anywhere to live, remember her shoebox studio. Some clothes have tags on and are returned
That'd be interesting to find out re source of income.. I'm guessing she has other revenue streams. Hopefully not falling into the trap of these other 'influencers' who are yacht girls/ sugar babies on the sideI think Georg is smart with her marketing strategies and does not rely as much on fast fashion / cheap brands, many brands to use her as "model", so many of those trips are brands wanting to shot her for content. Laura has fallen into a loop of H&M - Zara hauls that will be difficult to get rid of.
But for Georg, I also wonder what's her actual source of income, if that makes any sense
I watched an old vlog from 5 years ago today and she was like a totally different person very bubbly and the filming was all over the place - thought she was permanently tiddly at one point. Georg was there and it was mentioned that they both met whilst working together - sounded like Selfridges or Harrods, then they both left to start out in fashion and Laura was encouraging Georg to become a You Tuber.I agree Laura it's strong and brave in terms of the things she went trough, if she wasn't so "try-hard" with this whole luxury content attempt it may be her following would grow more organically. She was full in crisis trying to sort out if going back North could be an option, somehow stayed in London but the grinder is too harsh at the moment.
As a now-Londoner myself I can see a lot of people struggling to "keep up" with their lifestyles.
Lydia - I do not follow her that much as her content is such a bore, the Tattle thread kind of hate her too much (in my opinion of course), truth is she became unlikable due to pathologically lying all the time, is actually tragic to watch when you realise how mentally ill she is.
Laura has been trying and failing to be friends with Lydia for a long time, in some Laura's vlogs she recorded the classic "here with Lydia!" snippet, like when they both attended the Royal Opera by Karen Millen invite and Lydia's reaction was soooo cold. I think Laura keeps peace with Lydia as their demography may be very similar (in terms of followers looking for that style of clothes) and that's it.
I remember Laura talking about a narcissistic boyfriend in her early vlogs - he might have appeared in them at the tail end of the relationship. He really seemed to put her off men for a while.Out of the top of my head, I recall this very poshy gal on those old Georg vlogs that has a countryside home + had a quick "business" attempt and failed, it was one of those rent-and-return clothes services. It came out as the type of girl trying to play CEO with daddy's card because she was head to toe luxury posh. I can smell those trust fund characters miles away.
The other type of character, are the Instagram models part of the circuit that goes to Coachella, Soho House and had barely any real modelling jobs but travel all the time. The IRL girls I know that do so, they all have sex work as a side hustle lol it is insane actually. I do suspect Laura (going back to her) is NOT part of this vibe, like, not at all.
Laura decided to freeze her egs and she's waiting for Prince Charming to save her kind of thing, it comes off as a quite conservative person for relationships (which I stand) so besides whatever may have happened between she and Georg, it was a matter of time their backgrounds would clash because they literally hang out with veeery different groups.
Laura's trips are all brand deals, Georg trips?think.
Spot on. They look cheap too.. I highly doubt people will buy.Sunglasses cost no more than €10 to produce and import. Next to perfume & candles they have one of the biggest mark ups for profit. They’re shit anyway. I wouldn’t buy them
Yes, Laura definitely slogs her guts out, but never quite gets there. She was brought down by COVID, the flat problems, being ripped off by her agent and then if she was used in some way by Georg that would have been the final straw.Georg used to be best friends with Rosalind Weinberg back in the day when Georg worked for The Blogger Programme. She tried to be an influencer back then and tried to put herself forward for all paid opportunities and only put other influencers forward that would take her as a plus one, TBP found out she was pocketing the money and then she started her own "agency". This happened at the same time as Roz had a semi successful agency when she was pregnant so she stepped on her toes. The difference in lifestyle between Roz and Georg meant they cooled the friendship down and Georg became a full time party girl. imo she makes Laura seem a lot more genuine and like a hardworker.
