Gifting tiger candles again. Just stop it! It doesn't make them better with a ribbon around then

She just buys so much SHIT! No wonder there's clutter everywhere. How she can still spin the frugal angle is completely beyond me.

Just seen her share (therefore basically beg for) a £17.95 nail varnish remover but then goes on to say she’s not adverse to decanting cheap stuff into a nice bottle *on the same slide*

Why would the brand want to gift her it when she’s only going to refill it after?

Now What

The camera panning from her mother to Chris shows how much shit is in that kitchen. Not just the matches production line, but the bitty things all over the cabinets and on the walls. My anxiety level went through the roof looking at it.

Well for her that has the time to be worrying about how ‘chic’ her nail polish remover is. Or maybe she’s to be pitied that such things actually bother her. And it’s laughable her decanting cheap soap into the remote bottles of the more expensive brands. And her advent calendar, I think she’s trying to make a point about being creative and non-materialistic with her advent calendar - but she’ll have abandoned it before the 24th. I can’t see her actually getting around to doing the day’s activity with her daughter when she comes home from nursery. Most of the activities she’s listed out - parents do with their children anyway. See it’s hung in the secretly extended guest bedroom, which seems to now be a living/dressing/playroom.

It's laughable to claim to be frugal while discounting cheaper (and just as decent!) nail polish removers just because the bottle doesn't look 'chic'. I'd say she could just shove it in the bathroom cupboard like the rest of us, but we already know their house has next to no storage. It's just another piece of clutter to add to the surfaces.

I don’t know why any skin care brand would work with her? Sure no one looks good without make up. But her complexion looks like a moldy bread.

I totally agreed that buying multiple small ticket items is not frugal. I stopped buying shit from Anthropologie just because they are cute, stopped buying candles, stop buying any deco tats and that saved me a lot of money.

I was going to say exactly the same thing. On a scale of 1 to 10 Alex weirdness, this takes the top spot for me.

I know this comment doesn't belong here, but I didn't know if someone knew. Is there a thread for the Frey life? I can't find one.

Think she said she doesn't like how they style it? Neither do I but I still just get it done and wash it the next day.

Remember her hair curling tutorial it was worse than the eyeliner tutorial.

If I was her I’d let the hairdresser do it

I don’t get that, it’s a hairdresser, can’t you ask them to style it how you like? My hair is so thick it takes them like 45 minutes and ruins their arms for a few days but I still want my long bouncy blow dry

Hmm, maybe she’s being frugal by not wanting to pay for the blow dry so she can buy more candles and crap.
