Sorry to jump in but it really annoys me when someone is trying to use their influence to do good and people try to question their motives, like there can’t be nice people in the World. If you actually look through the Godiva feed you will see the good work she has done - like the PJ donation drive over Xmas. Other sites and influencers have supported her like Mums That Slay & 5 Whyz & Mother Pukka and I’m sure their not all stupid.

Erica Davies’ QVC launch next. Chances of seeing the same faces (whether interiors based or not)? The guest list would make for a good instamum bingo I suspect.
It'll be all the usual suspects, none of whom will actually purchase anything but will no doubt be gifted

I’m glad it’s not just me that finds the mumsthatslay hashtag to be irritating. I don’t know why they all have to make a feminist stand by showing us their pants either. I’m getting old i think ?

What does “mums that slay” actually mean?

Thank you, to each and everyone of you who have commented on the @campbestival page. Camp Bestival has now responded and I would urge all of you whom recognise the lack of diversity to call them out on it. Please, please go over there and let them know this is not acceptable. The current defence is they have another tier of speakers which will be more diverse.....remember the years before 1945, when POC were officially considered second class citizens in America?

Sounds like because Camp Bestival have been called out on the glaring lack of diversity they will now scramble together a new line up “representative bloggers”. It’s not the headliners for the Pyramid stage ffs no need to stagger the announcements ....

Lucy, not everyone is going to agree with everything someone does. If you put a negative comment on an insta pic, you’re called a hater and blocked or set upon by the fans. Some people have negative opinions of you and others, deal with it.
I mean the hypocrisy of this is actually hilarious. You’re asking me (or “Lucy” whoever she is?) to “deal with it” and yet you can’t deal with someone leading a life different to yours? ?❄?❄

Do we have to assume there has been collaboration - either gift or payment wherever brands are tagged on a post? Sometimes it is obvious that there is collaboration but sometimes I'm not sure if a product may have been genuinely purchased. But why would anyone # a brand on a post unless there was something in it for them? Normally people cut all the tags off their clothes before they wear them, they don't advertise the brand as they walk down the street.

Posts that don't declare collaboration are deceitful and should be pulled up, but is there an obvious way to work out what is collaboration and what is a genuine purchase? Have I missed something?
No, from now on they should state if they’ve had a previous collab with the brand, whether that’s through gifting or a paid partnership. What some influencers do though, is tag a brand when they’ve bought something themselves in the hope that the brand will send them further free stuff or offer them a paid partnership. They’re always on the lookout to grab something for nothing.

Those Gucci shoes were £300?!!

Each to their own and all that but .........£300!!

Grim and a waste of money in my opinion.

Mp and I have had various discussions, we follow each other and even when we have disagreed she’s hasn’t shown any of the behaviour being discussed above.
Sorry, haven’t seen that at all from her [emoji2372]

I am disappointed (but not shocked AT ALL) over the privilege that’s going to be at CB. I hope Anna pulled out for the right reasons.
Well that doesn’t make my experience any less valid. As with all the other instagrammers talked about on this forum, Pukka has been manipulative, insensitive & greedy at times

Has anyone noticed that NSSN has totally ripped off CT’s list idea? Wondered if that might be lower sixth crossing the line....
I need a list of these people.. who's NSSN? I'll probably figure it out by the time I've posted this and come back ?

Clemmie Telford (lower sixth) moaning about lack of sleep as a result of travelling with a baby across multiple time zones in one week.

My heart is literally breaking for you Clemmie. You need another break to get over the hell of this.

Meanwhile School Mums Luludumas and Doesmybumlook40 continue to flog either their own unwanted crap or unwanted crap M&S are producing
I feel a bit bad for this as I don’t dislike her, but I’m so close to unfollowing her because every IG story is her face contorted into a different expression with text on top. Use a f’ing background! A photo of the sky! I don’t need to see your face 75 times a day ?
