Karen is truly amazing and oozes personality and style. My favourite is when she is truly excited about a purchase she has made and seems to jump for joy. At first I thought she was playing up to the camera, but I see now that she is truly genuine....it came through in a video she did with highlowluxxe and when she got her hermes bags
Karen has been an influencer or perhaps as long as Tamara. Her appreciation for fashion has been an ongoing thing. I agree with all that you said about Tamara....she has no joy in what she doing and definitely is bored AF. Even Patricia Bright took the River island ad and tried to make it interesting with the goal of teaching her viewers to pick jeans from themselves. I mean the woman went into detail and really was good about some the most hideous designs I've ever seen. Tamara is a pigeon following the crowd on a loop.
I love your pigeons

And I love Karen's enthousiasm. She tells you what she wants and shows you that you can buy (and mix) high end, low end, vintage and second hand. Tamara makes everything about money and that makes her look shallow. Like she wanted to be an influencer for herself and not give any thought to what she can give to her audience.
Times have changed and everybody with a phone can upload something. There are ten year olds who give a crap and upload something substancial. Tamara might have been lucky to be one of the first but there is no growth. The only thing that is growing is the amount of stuff, not her or her channel. Part of me would be fine with that. If she just named it an unboxing channel, like many other girls out there. But then she talks about education, working on yourself, reading books and reflecting none of those things.
The last time I saw her being exited was in Paris. She did a quick hometour and told her some plantlike decoration was there because it was believed to bring money. The way she said "money" was even more exciting than any of her latest unboxing. Like when she bought her first second hand constance bag years ago.
Nothing wrong with cashing in on being vapid, but just stop pretending that you are not. Then she mentions how much she loves fashion and we get a quick talk trough. Not mentioning that her get ready with me is a Dyson ad. Not filming at big events. By now I have no idea what her channel is about. I do not know what she wants. It is quite clear that she is missing some kind of direction and I suppose she is trying to get that back by overly compensating that to the outside world.
She wants to ooze luxe but looks like new money. She does not like IYKYK but vapid, a girl with no substance, a habit, a shopping habit and somebody's +1 instead of the girl who’s name is on the invite because you want her to be there. Like Caro on holiday with her family. Like Brian at Paris' wedding. Like Xenia with people on the beach. She gives us a girl, sitting in an apartment, showing nameless and faceless people on the internet that she
can remember what she ordered because she ran out of content.
I am here for it because it gets my heart rate up while working out and I am not saying that everybody has to make a difference in the world, but stop talking about substance and giving us airhead without value for money.
