I've never been able to understand her appeal as a supposed fashion blogger.
I agree, lots of fashion bloggers and influencers in general are very attractive (makes sense) and everything they wear looks great but I think it’s good to see someone who is fairly plain and normal and see how they elevate that with fashionproverbs_ wrote:Well, I don't defend her lifestyle, her consumerism and her superficiality regarding clothes but I must say, I appreciate her looking not as bland as all the other fashion bloggers. She kinda has an edge, which suits her personality to some point. I even think it is kind of mean to expect her looking super attractive because of being a fashion blogger.
While her figure is striking, she is not scarily thin, has some curves to her and her face is not enhanced by fillers, beauty operations and else. I like her on that part for being relatable and I don't think, that you have insanely beautiful to be a fashion blogger, because it is about fashion. It is a little bit sad, as I think she really knows that she is not that attractive, hence, she mostly wears huge sunglasses in her Instagram pictures.
I actually prefer a naturally, not that attractive person to do it than someone, who fully changes her looks for pursuing a career as an influencer (Negin, Xenia Overdose, Care Daur, ...).

I'm all for a daily uniform but as a fashion blogger? I don't get it. I'm still hoping to understand how she got her following, so I'd love to know if there is somewhere I can go to see fashionable Emma instead? I do think some of her outfits would come across a little better if she changed her hair to break up that low-effort (yet not effortless) vibe.
On another note, did anyone watch her bag collection video? I can't bring myself to hit play. The total number in the thumbnail and title seemed a little over the top. I just want to know if she named each one of them. Her naming her bags is another thing that drives me up the wall.
and won't wear bright prints or colours. She literally just wears what she wants, and that's fine, but I wouldn't say it's a fashion blogger mentality.I think I might be able to enlighten you guys on that part.floozyfloo wrote:gossipy locks wrote: I'm still hoping to understand how she got her following, so I'd love to know if there is somewhere I can go to see fashionable Emma instead?

Right? She's definitely a 'specified' fashion blogger. All I ever see is workwear, and while that's nice, shouldn't a fashion blogger be open to all new trends?
So I actually get how she got so successful, even though she comes across as quite bland 
I am so bloody sick of her buying blazer after blazer after blazer. How many blazers does one woman need???? And I wouldn’t mind but they literally all look the same! ‘This ones a little different’ errrm no it’s not Emma. Honestly I appreciate the fact that she dresses age appropriate and always looks classy but everything’s just so dull dull dull. I know people who dress like her in real life, I don’t know why she feels she needs to show off her boring mundane outfits to thousands of people.proverbs_ wrote:Could there be any more blazers in her recent haul?

Oh but if she wore eyeshadow, we wouldn't get to see her roll her eyes so much, to let us know she's superior and 'above' the rest of us peasants. Can't have that.aliceintheuk wrote:I am so bloody sick of her buying blazer after blazer after blazer. How many blazers does one woman need????

Also, her ‘I never wear much makeup’ routine wears me thin. Maybe she should, then she might look a little less bland. A nice red lip and a brown smokey eye would look lovely on her.
I think the key to everything you said is that she needs to change things up sometimes! The blazers are good, just not when it's blazers every dang day. No makeup make up is great, but gets boring very quickly when it's all you do. And I agree! She is so stuck in a rut it isn't even funny anymore. For these reasons, she is far from being a fashion or beauty influencer imo. Why would we need to see different variations of the same boring thing over and over again? And whyyyyy would she think that is the most helpful or interesting stuff she has to offer?aliceintheuk wrote:I am so bloody sick of her buying blazer after blazer after blazer.

She's either just a dick of a human (most likely) or she's desperate for those 'relatable' points. Irritating in the least.
Meh I can get on with the rest but I just can’t take her rolling her eyes or her tone and accent as being above anyone or considering others as peasants.floozyfloo wrote:Oh but if she wore eyeshadow, we wouldn't get to see her roll her eyes so much, to let us know she's superior and 'above' the rest of us peasants.

I watched part of her haul the other day as background noise and fucking hell. I don't bloody care how much she says she loves the environment, buying that volume of clothing is doing more harm than buying a polyester shirt. Does she consider that even natural fibres are made using factories that expel pollution into the air?? It isn't at all relatable, or enjoyable to watch someone chat on about 12 blazers (didn't count them). She didn't even seem to like them that much, just rattled off the facts as she tried them on.monki wrote:Honestly the blazer thing is getting ridiculous, that most recent haul i couldn't believe she's got 4 new blazers. I don't read her blog but in the Paris vlog every outfit she showed was a t-shirt and blazer. It's all very boring- which is probably why I unfollowed her Instagram months back.
I follow a few minimal fashion bloggers & people with capsule wardrobes and they're able to produce more interesting content.
This hardly seems like the kind of thing someone would do as they're just coming out of a rough patch in their marriage, does it? She could have planned this trip for literally any other 4-day span, why do it on your wedding anniversary? And surely Simon would have had a chance to say something as she was telling him about her plans and what she booked?drasticactions wrote:.floozyfloo wrote:She went to Paris and *forgot* her wedding anniversary.

At first I thought it was relatable. But yet again, I'm not sure how long they dated before getting married. If they dated years and years I could understand that (remembering dating anniversary and forgetting wedding) Then I thought about it and she pulled up her sleeve and was like "I've even got a tattoo". And she only got married a couple years ago, and Simon has their wedding date tattoo too! So I'm really starting to think she" s a crappy person. Nothing wrong with not spending your anniversary together, but to schedule a trip to a city your husband hates for work on that date and take your friend instead is horrible. I get they see each other a lot but still it is obviously important to Simon.
This is soo true, Emma buys what would be an entirely new wardrobe to some people every month yet still has the nerve to talk about sustainable fashion.floozyfloo wrote:I watched part of her haul the other day as background noise and fucking hell.

Also did anyone else see that now she's working with Topshop? Interesting seeing as their use of 'natural' fibres is within the lowest of highstreet brands.
