Friend always does a ditzy act so everyone thinks she's cute and nice, but always picks on me and makes barbed comments in a cutesy voice so that they sound like compliments. She doesn't do it to anyone else though.
Today I met her and several other friends and amongst the comments she made to me were:
"Oooh bottle blonde" when she saw I'd had my hair done lighter (she is bottle blonde herself too)
"Is that bag big enough for you? Jesus, its like a fucking sack. Isn't it?" (the isn't it bit was aimed at everyone else to get them to join in), about my new bag.
"oooh look at you, nice to see you've made an effort today"
"you're brave in those trousers. you're not someone that I would normally think could carry off something like that"
And on and on and on.
I came back with quips but I have been thinking I shouldn't have to defend myself to a so-called friend.
Why does she do this to me and not other people? She is always patronising to me about things I wear and own. Like an "OOOOH, I LIKE this" in a sarky baby voice.

Had enough of Frenemy-type friend and her horrible barbed comments.
