    @Wendydoll, you must not follow her as it was said about 3722662372 times, a YSL velvet Lulu in navy, costing 1500, from Net A Porter :-) I feel like it's a mantra stuck in my head now!

    Haha you're right, I don't follow her. :D:D

    Plus them out on display on a shelf, seriously 😒

    I find this really odd!! I keep all my shoes in their boxes and my bags on shelves in the wardrobes to protect them from dust and fading in sunlight - they aren't display items.

    I don't get this at all either, all mine are in their dust bags on a shelves in the wardrobe. There's no way I'd have them on display

    You cant show them off on instagram unless they're on a shelf....

    Can I just say how glad I am to see that not everyone is reeled in by the showing off and falseness of so many of these people? Maybe one day the rest will wake up to it.

    I kind of understand it, if you're really well off and have your own walk-in wardrobe to display your clothes, shoes, bags etc. But for the rest of us, definitely in cloth bags out of sunlight ;)

    TBH, a lot of her snaps lately have been just showing that shelf with shoes and bags, again and again. I don't get it. What's the need to show your stuff off constantly, and it's things that aren't new either? Same goes for swatching her lip things, it's the same stuff every single day... The lip stuff musnt be selling well if she needs to remind people about it once a day. Obviously if you release a product, you will want to show it off, but there's a fine line between advertising and over saturating.

    I'd almost forgotten about the Cheeto fingers comments! Can't wait to delve into a bag of them later and roll around in my Cheeto crumbs like the big, fat hater I am :)

    I also don't get how net a porter took it back! (She has returned it already. After taking a load of photos with it.)
    She got marks on it from rain. Water marks. The bag wasn't faulty. If I got tan on a Victoria Beckham dress from net a porter would they take it back?! They would on their hoop! I'm sure some reference to her number of followers was made in the return transaction...

    It is so, so crass to continuously talk about it's "price point", as they call it in blogger speak. I love designer stuff as a treat once in a while but everytime someone says "I like your sunglasses" etc, I don't reel off the price, the website description blah, blah, blah.

    I think she should invest in higher quality clothes and not just disposable items for depop, but that's another discussion..!

    I just saw the YSL bag snaps there. Crazy how a bit of rain could do that. I'd say that's not the full story she must have spilled drink on it.

    I agree Anna, something sticky I'd think. And it looks like from the snaps that it damaged the bottom part too, so maybe it was put down on a spilled drink? A DROP (as she said many times) of rain won't create a huge amount of damage like...

    Funny she complains about having to spend £60 on her nails but can spend €1400 on a bag no problem! Obviously it was a treat and she saved up for it (she says)! Just odd! To have that line of thinking!! Dunno how to say what I'm trying to without sounding like a B! Cos I don't mean it badly!

    I find it so weird that she drops that kind of cash on a bag, but complains about the price of car insurance, almost like she was hinting for discounts (a few months back). Also, hints for free clothes before any trips, I think it was Dubai where she asked 'anyone know where I can get evening gowns?', yeah, it's called Google! I still can't get my head around the whole Depop thing, fair enough if you have bought your gear, but flogging your gifted stuff is a no no in my book. I find her attitude very weird, she flaunts the designer gear non stop (can't count the number of times I've seen those Valentino shoes), as if it somehow makes up for lack of content? Sorry if I sound bitchy, but I don't get it at all? It screams 'look how great I am', and as someone who isn't impressed by designer gear, it's not up my alley at all.

    She mentioned the price of the bag after the rain had ruined it. She had it for about 12 hours in fairness.
    Somebody said Sue seems very generous with her family. What about her followers? She used to (or still does and never shows it) have her rooms filled with piles of presents from local companies during her workshops. She never raffled any of it off or rarely does any giveaways to the people lining her pockets.

    Ah see she can't do that because she can only wear clothes once... :rolleyes:

    I remember her saying that ridiculous statement is she not supposed to be relatable to her followers even kate Middleton wears the same thing more than once , the girl had zero class

    Just had to follow MUF on snapchat to see what the craic was with the bag haha I loved the fact that she said about the Kurt Geiger bag - its very much like a designer bag but a fraction of the price.. em.. is KG not a designer also?! Just cos she cant brag that it cost 1500!

    I'm no fan of the MUF but buynowbloglater had really similar issues with her YSL velvet bag — she posted about it on twitter here

    Sue's wedding video teaser is the height of notions. Looks lovely and all but honestly the "COMING SOON" at the end made me cringe so bad!!!

    Myself and Dylan were going to keep it private then decided not too there is no way she would miss an opportunity to be adored lol

    I'm all for spending whatever you want on your wedding, go for it, whatever. Wouldn't be my style personally to do the huge, OTT thing, but different strokes and all that, I have to say though, the planes flying over had me in stitches, I thought I was watching footage of a royal wedding, not some blogger from Dublin.

    To be honest I think the whole "I decided to share it with you guys" was probably part of the promotion for getting it free or discounted.
    Maybe I'm cynical but if something is not self-serving she wouldn't do it.
