That’s a full day of work for Lily!
Don’t forget she needs to adjust her curtains/stick paper up on the window and get her ring light out! So much creativity and hard work, she’ll need a nap afterwards while her
That’s a full day of work for Lily!1) light a candle
2) film a clip of said candle
3) slap a filter on it
4) write an unimaginative caption
Cue Lily: "Whew!! Knocked out my daunting to-do list this morning so I'm feeling great!"
But Lily didn’t like candles in the house before Grey, remember?1) light a candle

I've actually just re-read the paragraph on candles and it makes absolutely zero sense
Buying one would mean money in Anna's pocket from Lily. I don't think Lily would want that even though true best friends wouldn't mind at all.
I actually think Lily is jealous of Anna's collab. Lily was really in to bullet journaling a few years ago. One of her videos even got 800,000+ views. She should have capitalised on that and collaborated with a brand to bring out her own bullet journal's or normal journal/diaries. I bet she regrets not doing that now.
Most of the article didn’t seem to make much sense! The writing style was absolutely dreadful- typos, really long and convoluted sentences, and a weird mixture of tones. So difficult to read!1) light a candle

100%. If Lily had spent Christmas Day at home she would have rambled on about it. She didn’t so wanted to glaze over it. I wonder if Anna even knows she broke the rules?I'm sorry if this has been discussed already but I only got around to listening to their latest podcast episode. It's so obvious that Lily spent Christmas Day at her parents' place despite being in Tier 4. She was extremely vague when describing the whole day because obviously she did not want to lie but also did not want to admit that they had broken lockdown rules. Then she said that she didn't want to "dwell on it" and wanted to move on. Yeah, this is the person who shares everything from flushing tampons to her disgusting crusty lips but Christmas is all of a sudden too personal, mmkay. Then at one point they were talking about families creating their own Christmas traditions and Lily's mother being really adamant about having Lily et co. sleep over on Christmas Eve and then quickly she added "obviously it couldn't happen" with an awkward laugh. And again, she didn't explicitly say that they didn't go over, just that lockdown rules wouldn't allow it. Very sneaky.
The first comment (and also one of the most liked) makes reference to her copying Anna and how unhelpful any of her suggestions are. I even forgot she has a blog and I think she justifies keeping it in order to keep her "busy" and to keep up with Anna (who is consistent with her blog posts) - just give Rich his desk, Lily. Yes her writing style is appalling. I wonder if she realises she's peaked. In that blog post she mentions that she's lazy which we all knew but she purposely leaves out the big thing - motherhood. I think motherhood is what knocked the wind out of her both in energy and funds hence her bland and at times disgusting content. Clearly she still has money but I have a feeling she can't spend on herself like she used to without getting into an argument with Rich. I'll bet good money her sisters and friends warned her but of course she thought the rules didn't apply to her. She thinks she's a regular Londoner mum but she's not. She hasn't gotten through her thick head of hers how spoiled (by her fam) and privileged she is and she's lucky to still get paid for this bland and copied content and the reason it isn't doing numbers like it used to is there's nothing aspirational or escapism about her or her content. There are better mummy vloggers who are also stylish or provide helpful/useful tips but her content since having a baby is clearly half-arsed hence her numbers.

So true, we can quickly come up with a very long list of all the stuff she doesn't like but it's quite hard to think of what she does enjoy (begging for free stuff doesn't count). I bet that she sees that Anna really enjoys cooking, get envious and tries to imitate it. Anna is hardly a chef and her recipes are not groundbreaking, but at least she comes across as comfortable in her own skin. Trying to keep up with your best friend is something I'd expect from a teenager, not from adults in their 30s. Lily spends so much time trying to do what looks cool that I believe she honestly doesn't know what she likes.I was just thinking about this. I have never met anyone in their 30s with zero hobbies or interests. No wonder she’s unhappy when there’s nothing she genuinely looks forward to doing. I could not imagine my life like that.
Her teeth is bigger than her brain. She went out for some photoshoot only to slap on the dead moody up filter, what is the point?View attachment 386923
What nightmares are made of.
This made me burst into laughter so hard I scared the cat. These two and their lame-o husbands are the blandest around.Anna had said how funny and silly they’re podcast is. They basically have no personality. Do you think they describe themselves as “I’m a bit mad / crazy” ??
Well put! I don’t respect what Anna does, but I do respect her work ethic while she does it. And she really gets into it and is enthusiastic about it.It's cause she can't commit to anything. She said a while back that the bullet journal system didn't work for her anymore but if she was somebody that was efficient, creative and organised she could've come up with her own system which she could've created more content/a collaboration with. Earlier in Jan she bought some new stationary (knowing that Anna's was coming out) to get 'ahead' for the year and then wrote a 'to do' list that resembled something I did back when I was 9 years old. Yesterday alone she showed herself ticking off her 'to do' list on a really random pad (the top of it said 'draw somebody in the room'? and then showed herself ticking things off monday.com. How many places do you need to keep lists? It's so strange.
I know Anna isn't liked by some BUT she has been savvy in cornering the organisation content. She also has her book club, the (cough) capsule wardrobe, she regularly updates her blog, she does proper beauty reviews etc. She has created a brand and it works for her.
This made me burst into laughter so hard I scared the cat. These two and their lame-o husbands are the blandest around.
I definitely see Mark and Anna thinking they are quite alternative and cool. I think Lily and Rich are too dumb to have any self awareness.
Well put! I don’t respect what Anna does, but I do respect her work ethic while she does it. And she really gets into it and is enthusiastic about it.
I think that her job of pushing shit to buy in the quest for an “edited life” is unethical, and that in the last year or so she’s tried to adopt a young, cool-girl style that she’s way to dorky to pull off, but at she does work at it and is somewhat consistent. But I would be embarrassed about having such a vapid career, and even a million pound house could NOT convince me to sell my soul to the internet.

Totally - did Gabrielle babysit her once or somethingView attachment 387366The lamest example of name-droppingYOU didn’t know Gabrielle. Daddy Pebbles, the owner of a record company, knew Gabrielle and you might have tagged along to work with him once or twice. I highly doubt a celebrity like Gabrielle would be making acquaintance with a child!
