I am certainly not a royalist but I've definitely felt more sympathy for Kate recently - the conspiracy theories are ridiculous (though hugely entertaining). The casual ageism is infuriating too!
Thank you! I felt sorry for her his week, too - I can't even imagine what it must be like being unwell and having thousands of people demanding to see photos of you, then relentlessly picking them apart when you finally produce one. (And that's even without all of the speculation about affairs, etc!)
Honestly, that comment was the tip of the iceberg. Most people on Twitter seemed absolutely certain there was no possible way a woman her age could know how to edit a photo... it gives me the rage just thinking about it!
This is my favorite post of yours in a long time!! I remember when you were a fashion blogger!! All of your writing is great, but this one just hit on so many levels!! Keep doing what you do!!
I’m convinced the only people who don’t do this are Vinted sellers — they seem to delight in taking photos in the pitch dark, then proudly releasing them without any adjustments 🙈
The ageism! What is wrong with people? This was hilarious by the way, tho it did also make me angry. But light relief from arguing with my 3 year old about whether it's bedtime or not and that he must stop driving his cosy coupe car into the fireplace 🙄
That card is fantastic! Happy birthday :-D

Couple of things. That “kinda adorable” comment has ENRAGED ME. And who is using flash in the year of our lord Harry Styles 2024???
"The year of our lord Harry Styles" 😁

I am a Photoshop expert and wouldn’t dream of releasing a photo into the wild without first adjusting the Levels, Brightness & Contrast. ✔️

That is so true!!! 😂😂😂

Oh, I remember 3 year old bedtimes so well 🙈
The ageism jumps out at me more and more as I older, for obvious reasons — this week was next level, though 😬
