The Frugality/Alexandra Stedman #9 All the personality of a Waitrose bag for life

[chinwag72]

Today’s reel is basically, obviously, basically styling a trousers with a t shirt. If it’s ‘obviously still freezing’ in the UK, put an effin’ bra on.

 

[influencerbore]

Jeeez what did you sell? Your kidneys?

Dr martens, kids bundles, dresses…basically did a big clear out!

 

[Just watching it all]

She'll be flogging that Sézane stuff on Vinted/eBay in 3-2-1...

 

[gollygally]

You’d probably enjoy the RVK threads, they are on fire at the moment

Not sure who she is unfortunately

 

[gollygally]

How does she afford to have 4 staff (including dopey?!?!) my mind genuinely boggles at this fact
Also new dress and lovely frugal £190 boden jacket on the newsletter this week

I was going to say that, she really doesn’t understand how lucky she was to be at the right the place and right time

Spotted this on my local Facebook group - perhaps Alex could loan hers? Speaking of that trolley, did our high priestess of frugality ever use it again? For what it’s actually meant for, ie the beach or a picnic and not the London Underground?

 

[MeWithTheHair]

Do any of you champs follow Alistair Green on IG? His stories about Cubitts glasses and ads today and last night have me craaaacking uppppp.

I wonder what ever happened to those god awful floral plates. Last summer that was the content 24/7 with the candles now radio silence.

 

[AllTheGinJoints]

Thought they be indoors eating crisps silently?

Either that or she was in a restaurant shoving chips into her gob while ignoring the kids…

 

[PineappleQueen19]

Fucking hell

 

[Greencatfysh]

I don’t think the price is per day… surely not?!

Oh you’re right I misread it

 

[CausticYoda]

Or is it this nice and frugal* Boden one?

*compared to Toteme

A family locksmith business might not be the right sort of wealthy, either.

I can see how that would be looked down upon in certain moneyed circles.

They are in TRADE. Nice people but a bit ‘infra-dig’ darling.

 

[gollygally]

Rebecca loves - formerly RVK loves

Thank you. Enjoying the read

 

[AllTheGinJoints]

Sorry to fans of that dress but I can only see the cartoon character Obelix from ‘ Asterix & Obelix’…

Can’t unsee.

 

[Unknown5]

Erm, I do. It's kind of a sensible precaution when you live where she does/I do. I like my bag to be where I can see it. Maybe not quite as high slung as Alex. Also handy for getting your phone out for tube/bus etc.

I used to live on her road many years ago and the amount of people trying to pick pocket at Wood Green tube… always wore my bag at the front.

 

[AllTheGinJoints]

Though why you’d choose to go to CDY on the bus on the hottest weekend of the year, I really don’t know.

 

[atome74]

Yep I have a mildly successful depop account but I don't try and make insta content from it. Maybe I should try combining with photos of poo from the local wildlife

Is she trying really hard to be really gross atm… everything I see/read from her recently makes me wanna hurl

I have honestly wondered if she is trolling tattle!

 

[louderforthecheapseats]

Fuming no local Tesco’s near me are selling them

I had to go on a mission to find mine, the north isn’t particularly well stocked

 

[MeWithTheHair]

Ok ok ok I have to finally give in and ask.
Who wears their bag the same way as Alex (and other influencers)? Always awkwardly high up when worn across the body, always facing weirdly forwards. Is it just to make sure it’s visible in photos?! Surely it’s just so it can be seen but then it’s put in a much more practical way (side/back/closer to hip?!)
(Or is this another reason why she can’t lift her kids up - bags are always getting in the way?! Heh)
