Am I the only one that finds her unbearably smug and twee?!

I’m sure she’s a nice person but I’ve had to unfollow her on IG as the continuous ‘our perfect family life’ posts were irritating the hell out of me. That and every other post just seems to have turned into an Ad.

It just seems a v contrived account, every single post has been executed and set up, there doesn’t seem to be anything authentic about it?!

Pointless post really but having just unfollowed I wasn’t sure whether I am just being a grumpy cowbag?

And how is that different from most other people on Instagram?

RunningFromInsanity · 03/12/2020 20:23

Unfortunately that seems to be the case for most IG now. I follow 2 American ‘influencers’ but now I notice they seem to #ad the same products a few days apart.

It’s a shame as I really enjoyed their early content but I guess if they want to make it a full time job they have to make money somehow.

Are you her PR person? If this is another tedious Blogger you've just done her a massive favour bitching on MN, as a few here will no doubt have a nosey. Well done!

Exactly what I thought.

I'd never heard of her before this post!

Ah so this is a PR trick? Ooh crafty!

Ladywinesalot · 03/12/2020 20:47

Err it’s supposed to be artsy and uplifting.
She works for Bobbi Brown and started with posts With that and it’s evolved into more of personality/business account like Mrs Hinch.

I think she’s great!

If you find her smug maybe it’s because your insecure?

ArtemisBean · 03/12/2020 20:48

I used to enjoy her posts a few years back when they were more genuine and family-oriented. Then suddenly she started being a walking, talking advert and I got bored with all the materialism. It's all rather grabby and fake now. Very sad.

SweetShopSurprise · 03/12/2020 20:49

Definitely not a PR trick!

I wouldn’t say I’m insecure, I follow A LOT of influencers on IG. I haven’t had to unfollow anyone else yet but saw her latest ad post with her 2 boys all dolled up again and tbh it just made me eye roll so I thought time to unfollow!

I've never heard of this so had a quick look and I think she must be the happiest person I've ever seen in my life 😁

An IG account was contrived you say?
Well I never!
🤣

hopeishere · 03/12/2020 21:43

They're all contrived. All put their Christmas trees up weeks ago as they had flip all other decent content.

The sheer amount of #gifted at the minute as well is obscene. It really puts me off brands. None of them seem to donate any of it or raffle it off for god causes.
