I think she deserves her own thread.
I agree re her ads, the fact that companies pay for the rubbish she produces is just mind-blowing.

We’ll said. I guess meant that it was Julia’s fault that it was a fiasco in the end, rather than her being taken advantage of, as a previous poster put it. You’re absolutely right it was a vanity project most of all. The GMG dressers were mostly hideous too. Her personal touch was not a good thingIt was a fiasco in my opinion. She justified selling a brand that took her years to build because her partner wanted to make it more profitable and scale it up, while she said the amount of work required was beyond what she could/want to put in. I mean call it a vanity project if that's what it is, not a business. She could have easily hired help and skilled designers, but she wanted to have her 'special touch' to every piece, I mean that's just naive and not how a business works. Do you think Gwyneth from Goop single-handedly picks every product they put in the shop??
Their whole presence is super staged, with Julia even more so than with Rose. Rose to some level still feels a little authentic, with Julia its all planned an d coordinated. She never posts anything that makes her feel silly or relatable. Her paid video ads are absolutely horrendous, she is trying to convince you she loves the product while she stares dead in the eyes at camera and says the opposite with her expressions. Rose is annoying and fake, but Julia is plain boring. I rather watch the paint dry than follow her 'adventures'.
Oh dear, here we go again.So much laughter bellies were aching!
I don’t think so. I’d start one but I have no idea how that works?Does Julia have a thread btw?
Did Rose steal Julia's phone to write that caption?So much laughter bellies were aching!
I read it, I mean what’s there to read. Photos and a sentences that resemble seven year old’s vocabulary and ‘simplicity’. My British friend had lived in South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia and yes it might all look beautiful on photos ( especially on Instagram) but it’s like going back in time apparently- and for all the wrong reasons.I almost couldn't read the new blog post. Friendship with Rosie must be suffocating. Every normal friendship thing has to be turned into a fairytale. She acts like they've been friends forever but they've only known each other 7 years and met up a handful of times. Very odd.
Ok will comment on my last comment but her new guess about what? Post about friendships and making new friends. Is her crying triggered by Julia and their ‘friendship’. I feel it’s all too much coincidence?Anyone seen her latest stories, crying? Nothing happened apparently but just wanted to let us know it’s not all sunshine and happiness as we see it online.

Maybe it’s because Julia rushed off to have real friend time with her BFF and sent Rose back to Cali?Anyone seen her latest stories, crying? Nothing happened apparently but just wanted to let us know it’s not all sunshine and happiness as we see it online.
Yes I think you are absolutely right. There was a comment on her story when they did a Halloween trick or treating whilst with Julia, along the lines of she can see why people who have children move to suburbs and have that lifestyle. I think she genuinely enjoyed that close knit community feel.I also think the timing of the story update and new post about friendship means she must be desperately lonely.
I think the trip with Julia didn't go exactly as she planned it in her head and was probably let down that they don't have as tight connection as she dreamed up in her head.
Another thing is that Julia has established a home there, with family and close friends living within reach. I'm in a similar situation myself, as in far away from family from both sides and friends, and when you're visiting someone whose parents live next to them and have a large circle of friends and help with kids, it's hard not to compare and see what you miss out on. So I think the lack of family life plays a part too.
I said that a while ago, but I think she won't be able to tolerate this lifestyle of following husband around the world for too long, no matter how glamourous she tries to make it sound.
