No one told her.
Because she's a moron. I think a lot of Lily's personality can be explained by the fact that she's significantly younger than her sisters and was clearly a complete spoiled brat. She can't wait for anything, and has to have everything RIGHT NOW. Any sane person would realise that having major building work done would be a reason to wait, but not dear Lily.
Something along the lines of āyou might as well chop your balls offā!
she is Lydia but a London version
Also, if Grey is moving into one of the larger bedrooms in the next few years then the carpet will be trashed. Just throw some big rugs over them and chalk it down to a reno mistake.
Compared to her deco choice in the bedroom, the carpet is not a big deal. I absolutely dislike her bedroom colour, her console table at the other end of the room doesnāt serve any purpose either.
She is spend, spend, spend at the moment, which is VERY unlike Lily. Of course, she is documenting her carpet search in the hopes of a freebie, but I'm starting to wonder if her parents sold their house and gave her a cut/early inheritance (I think this may have been speculated on before). That or she just can't cope with the fact that Anna is renovating her house and is actually spending her own money (!!!) in order to keep up with the Newton's. I'm sure she spoke of the loft renovation happening in a couple of years time (I could be wrong) but now it can't happen fast enough! It also seems like such a waste to replace carpets after such a short amount of time. Lily is one of these people who is never happy with what she has. She always wants more!
The loft has definitely been accelerated because of Anna and I wouldn't be surprised if she got Ā£Ā£ from her parents too. It's not even been three years since they moved back into the house and they are already doing major reno work. Why didn't they just do it at the time? Because they planned for it to happen way later than it's actually happening.
