Ah jaysus! Sinéad is a decent person and I feel she's having a rough auld time of it lately. I've a pair of birkenstocks that should have been binned 2yrs ago but I wear them like a feckin comfort blanket. So I understand the "ah shur these are grand" .I don't think she has a huge selection of heels (I don't since covid and no longer working in an office). I'm more annoyed when an instahun has a pair of expensive heels for every second outfit and all are bloody gifted to them!
I like Sinéad as she represents (in my opinion) a different shape from the usual size 10/12 Instagram person who just walk into Zara and walk out with a full outfit no trouble. I'm a size 12/14 now but when I was a size 16/18 there was feck all anyone on Instagram showed I could even fit into and to be fair she did show a lot more that I could actually try on and would at least fit. I've msgd her once and she got back to me and was lovely so I'm biased but as much as the offaly qvc one and the lazy tallaght sloth that jumps on every bandwagon annoy me I'm still liking Sinéad....Will I show myself out?🤣
I know she’s probably still grieving but she’s not going through something that we all won’t face at some point in our lives, and many have faced it at much younger and more impressionable times in their lives. Most of us don’t turn into QVC, shilling even the most horrible, cheap polyester crap to anyone dumb enough to buy it.
I assume you’re referencing FBG, and yes she’s an absolute gowl, but just because someone is not at bad as the worst person out there, that doesn’t make them a good person!
also there are lots of midsize influencers who actually know how to dress, there are all body types on Instagram these days. Sinead got her following from make up, not fashion. She could never have grown a following if it was dependent on her style because she has none. selling dresses must be more lucrative because it’s all she’s at these days. She should stick to makeup, and even in that arena she needs an update - she’s stuck in 2016.

Completely agree with the above and she's nearly as bad as LLL selling clothes that she wouldn't wear herself in a fit!

She even plugged something or alluded to something after spending all night in hospital with her kid. Went on camera looking like an understandable sack of 💩 when she should have just left it a day.

No clothes or shoes ever look particularly good on her, she needs to stick to make up.

Sinéad actually works, along side her insta flogging - and I imagine actively parents unlike FBG who is like something off benefits street
From what she says online she does feck all hours/days as she job shares. Like 2 days one week and 3 days the next. Nice little set up. Opportunities like that are thin on the ground in the private sector.

I also like the way she keeps her children out of it and doesn't show their faces online. I hate when influencers rely on their kids to sell
She doesn’t show their faces but she absolutely does use them for content and freebies. The spotlight ads for kid’s toothbrushes for one, they featured in that even if their faces didn’t. This freebie hotel stays is very much aimed at families, she wouldn’t be there if she didn’t have the kids and show off the facilities aimed at kids/families. It’s just paying lip service really to protecting the kid’s privacy but she is definitely using them for content and ads.

Can’t argue with any of that.

Sinead never hits the mark. Went to her first event in years she says and wore cheap black dress in an 18 (but don't forget she's a 14) and nanny diamanté flip flops thar would be better on an octogenarian in Lanzarote. With the amount of rit she has coming into the house you think she would do better. Just always looks so frumpy and uncool or something.

Her style is way beyond her years
I think she could do with a stylist to help , especially as she is in the public eye
She has aged herself about 20 years forward with style from a Ma in the 2000’s

Her style never bothered me when she was primarily showing makeup but when she veered into the fashion hauls it was so obvious her “style” was never going to take off.

Exactly if she wasn't flogging clothes and shoes non stop and holding herself out as this fashion hun it would be less noticeable how cringey she looks.

The only thing I find help about her styling is that we are around the same height so it's good for judging the length of dresses, skirts, bottoms. Most online models are a good bit taller.

It wasn't a conscious choice but I realise now that I've gone from following her for makeup reviews, to following her just to laugh at how terrible her try ons are.

Honestly, the makeup content is minimal, and what there is is dated, so if it weren't for the truly terrible clothes, I'd be long gone. Its like she's an anti-influencer on what not to wear.

Im a little bit older than sinead and i think it just shows how difficult it is when you reach a certain age to find decent clothes. Nevermind the fact that we arent all a size 8.

I think it’s more to do with the target market of the boutiques she is collaborating with. Have to show their stock but probably wouldn’t wear it outside the door herself.

Completely agree with that too. I was actually chatting about this the other day. I dont think im old enough for carraig donn just quite yet and im too old for new look and river island. So where does that leave me? Obviously you can find the odd thing here and there but in general those shops dont cater for women over 40. If they do its a bit frumpy and grannyish imo.

Zara (ish) Dunnes, Vero Moda have clothes for younger and older alike imo. I agree on New Look and similar, they don't really cater for post baby saggy bits and wider hips.
