I wonder if we follow the same Alexandria influencers. I’m honestly jealous of their lifestyles.

Who?

I looked at Wardrobe Oxygen and while I would never wear what she does, I appreciate that she has a freaking point of view and embraces personal style.

Suzanne Lambert is a comedian and podcaster/political influencer, but she often talks about beauty - mostly product recommendations. She also seems to get complimentary services at some spas and posts about them. Her following dramatically increased when she said we needed more "Regina George liberals." She's funny and she clearly loves living in Virginia.

No unique style? What are you on about? She shares information about local estate sales. That is what she’s doing. Do you not get that?

What a sad, vapid existence.

Ok. You can go back to your People magazine now.

If I read that I might know or care about “influencers.”

Only the worst kind of gullible moron is invested in these clowns

You need to educate yourself on why it is very wrong to use this term. You probably need to educate yourself on a lot. I’m not going to hold my breath for it happening, though.

Tuckernuck went maga, so no thanks.

I want to like her so bad because she is way smarter than the average influencer but her writing style is so dramatic. I remember reading one of her posts aloud to DH once because it made me laugh; it was about her DD "convalescing" from a cold like she was in a home for Victorian children with TB.

I will say she seems super nice.

She's also a right wing lunatic who has reposted several posts about Tim Walz being a "r*tard." Is that someone you want to follow?

Secretlyfancy is quite fun to see.

He showed up in my feed, too. I've saved a few of his posts.

I get a lot of young people who think they're sharing some unknown place and it'll be Chateau de Chantilly or Paris Baguette. Like, girl, this isn't some hidden gem.

The wardrobe oxygen lady's influence is practically on life support! haha.

Food influencer, I guess. Not blogger.

Ughhhh her style is awful.

I wouldn't wear most of what she wears, but it works for her, and I think it's mean of you to say her style is awful. She's been doing this for far longer than any influencer out there, too. She was one of the first big bloggers.
