Instamums 3, 2.0

[blackmirror1]

Seeing as the original 3 got zapped.

I think MOD looks bloody good for 4 kids including twins! I just have the twins and have far more wobbly bits

Oh I'm permanently pregnant looking after 4 kids. Its not a good look.

Mod is damn hot and a such a pretty face.

I love women who can be open like this about their shapes especially when they’re not an size 8/10 which so many Instamums seem to be. I find it refreshing

I used to love Martha and actually recommended her as one of the better ones on Septembers thread. How 6 months can change someone.....

I hope she can retract this new persona quickly as she’s losing what she was good for.

I will say that Josh is FAF!

Its good to see she's doing well. But as a professional blogger and instamum she needs to learn and comply with the regulations. I loved her last house. And the new bathroom is I think she can cut back on the kids exposure a bit though. Its not necessary. She's really cool anyway. And rather modelesque. A very pretty family.

Did anyone see kelly at the bees knees story? She totally missed the point with her blasse attitude “just make up your own mind who cares if it says #ad?” Totally not understanding that it’s because it didn’t say #ad that people were being deceived and that’s the dishonest part

Bluesapp Totally trying to get attention more like.

I've just watched that instastory that @BlueSapp had mentioned so here's my take on it.

Never mind just unfollow, if you're advertising something it's not about using common sense or your own judgement. And I'll tell who gives a fuck about whether you mark something #gifted or not - ASA.

But hey, #justhavingafuckingmoan so you can ignore this right until the Advertising Standards Agency catches up with you, you dimwit.

(Not mentioning any names because I don't want to drive traffic to their blog. And this will probably be deleted anyway).

@stellastartsitall they are actually a beautiful family. All of the children and both parents. Model like.

She has no 'brain space' for trifling things such as complying with advertising laws.

I'd cut to the chase and say she has no brains.

Tralalalala.

Not sure if considered an instam in the same league, but does anyone follow tomanychildren? She has a big following and her children have the loveliest clothes and toys. She tags small brands so I wonder if these are bought by her or she is sent them?

She has a donate button on her website which really does not tally with the amount of (very expensive) stuff that she seems to buy.

What a ridiculous thing to say by that kellybee person. I might drop dead tomorrow so I won't bother to follow the rules..... just desperate for attention and trying to get with the big girls talked about on here.

Yip what you said Stella.

Have you seen the green eyed monster thread. It's flipping hilarious

I've been following this and the bloggers thread on S&B. Just had to comment to say I've just watched Kelly_thebeesknees story and I couldn't agree more with her.

She's summed up what I was trying to say when I commented on the bloggers thread (and got accused of being an inarticulate blogger trying to derail the thread). I'm not a blogger, I love Instagram and follow the majority of the instagrammers being mentioned on here. I'll admit these threads have been eye opening in that I hadn't realised quite how much stuff the bloggers and "Instamums" are gifted but I honestly couldn't give a fuck.

Kelly summed it up with her comment of nice things don't make you happy. I feel some people who have commented on this thread must be intrinsically unhappy or have low self esteem. Seeing other people get given nice things or going on expensive holidays (freebies or not) shouldn't make you feel miserable. If it does you need to unfollow or not be on insta.

The rules are there for consumer protection. Follow them.

@instabum I think she was discussed on the very first instamums thread.

Her feed is all liberty prints and saltwater sandals, and yet she has a donate button on her blog. Maybe a lot of the stuff is hand me downs? I don't know. I think because she is 'nice' people don't question her as much as other Instamums, but if they're gifts she really needs to start saying so.

The rules are there for consumer protection. Follow them

^^ This. I don't know how many more times it needs to be said. It's almost like people don't read the thread.

Kelly Wotsit is wrong. That's all there is to it.

The advertising laws aren't optional.

You can still be nice, but there are guidelines/ laws to be adhered to.....these are not optional some people just don't seem to get this

Wow such wise words Sofia 😂

Why do bloggers feel they have the right to disregard the advertising rules just because they don’t give a fuck? It’s such an arrogant attitude.

Yes Pavlova she does seem lovely, and it seems she has had a bad time recently (divorce?) I remember a post saying she had no income and was struggling to feed the dc yet days later showed CK items that 'she couldn't resist buying'.... The birthday items she bought recently for her youngest were also not in line with someone who needs donations.

As nice as she seems she is either getting gifted stuff or her version of 'struggling' is very different to mine.

Yep, I think that was picked up on the other thread @instabum

I'd be just as wary about giving money to someone on IG as I would on here. You're just getting an edited version of their life, and it can just as easy to show you're struggling as it would to look like you're living a life of luxury.

Sounds like tomanychildren's version Of 'struggling' is the same as CT's though

(Also is it wrong that that the fact that it's 'to' and not 'too' makes me irrationally angry every time it pops up? )
