He often makes derogatory remarks about America and Italy, accusing both countries of being racist and homophobic ( generalization, anyone???:coolio:)

If I may be arm chair psychologist for a moment...sometimes these generalizations come from projections based on hurt ego sometime in the past.....Based on the type of plastic surgery he's done, I think he may have inferiority complex about his ethnicity possibly due to childhood experiences.........

Its too sad that racism and homophobia gets tossed around so easily nowadays. It really undermines situations when true racism and homophobia happens. We should all remember, a$$holes come in all shapes and sizes and are equal opportunity exploiters. Let's not let one interaction with them muddle a whole swath of people.

To get back on topic...... Did anyone see Lailli hopping on the "crime" bandwagon and describe how she "almost" got mugged.........

I don't disagree with you but its not an excuse for Bryan Boy to constantly degrade other races and nationalities. Thats never okay..and its not one situation or interaction. Anyone who follows him knows he does it ALL the time. I concur, he indeed has a complex, but for goodness sake don't take it out on others..shows how he was raised and to his up bringing.

Anyway, who is Lailli?!!

Roughly around 11 or 12 min in.


Not excuse of course re: BB. Our own mental issues are never an excuse for mistreating anyone.

These influencers facial expressions on their primary video snapshot looks so fake. That includes those who get offered a wishlist bag — with their open mouthed surprised facial expression lol

Unfortunately we are not allowed to use names :sad: if its allowed please let me know! Her content is great..sticks to just fashion, and lifestyle..not posing with other tacky "influencers" to build her following.

If it’s a former SA, are influencer names not allowed? I get it for a current SA but why is not allowed for a former SA/influencer?

There was a recent incident with a so-called influencer who got robbed in Cannes last month and she took a video of herself crying on Snapchat.
It's amusing to me when I come across a Snapchat video posted by an influencer, where she narrates a negative experience that occurred to her and how it has affected her, yet she still remembers to apply a filter while recording herself crying. If I were to lose my bags and my RM watch due to a robbery, I would be too upset to document myself on Snapchat.

It's quite remarkable that we've come to the realization that most of her extravagant possessions are indeed fraudulent.

Yikes! Former SA turned influencer is trying to do a major PR haul on Insta with a interview with another influencer! *cringe*
Are there any *real* influencers left anymore?!

Sorry to bump this thread...
Though :
Well, maybe only those who have class and style in themselves and don't try to be an "influencer" in order to buy money and privileges...
(I'm thinking among others of Aerin Lauder, Naomi Campbell, Catherine Deneuve, Gwynneth Paltrow, maybe Jennifer Aniston, maybe concerning having style on their own: Olivia Palermo, Nicki Hilton ... unfortunately the late: Jackie O/Kennedy, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, Jane Birkin).

Speaking of which..thats exactly what "The former FSH SA" is doing with her Sofia Richie like image overall makeover by doing an interview with PB..the same influencer who used to shop with her. Lol. You really can't make this stuff up. AND all the other SAME influencers who I had mentioned in the previous thread -same ones that shopped with her in the past- are reposting it on their account. Come on people! Get a new strategy!! Thats why I like the former London SA insta..her posts stick to just Luxury lifestyle and she direct..she even did a Q & A on her stories where she answered Hermès questions very honestly, may I add with no bull crap like "let the magic happen" or " all departments count". My thing is not about getting your hustle on..but please don't treat us well informed Hermès lovers like we are stupid. The brand spanking new H lover maybe suckered into believing that Hermès is not a game.

This. 100%

I think people are forgetting the most important rule about social media/influencers: it/they don't reflect the reality of what's actually happening in the world. These items feel like they're "everywhere" and "over-exposed"... because the algorithm is taking everything users click, watch, and like, and just feeding it back to them with newer posts/videos from different creators...showing the same luxury content. I live in an area that has many high-end shops and wealthy neighborhoods (thanks to the unique features of the local economy), and Hermes isn't everywhere. Do you know where I see it the most? AT Hermes, inside the boutique...when clients are shopping. LV, Chanel, Coach, and Longchamp...that I see more often at my local luxury mall. Even when I traveled out of state to one of the major luxury areas in the country, I spotted Hermes maybe 3-4 times.

The Hermes community - and the influencers posting Hermes content - is a giant echo-chamber. If it seems like it's everywhere...congratulations to the programmers and execs of these social media platforms: the apps are working just as designed. Trust me, not everyone and their mom/cousin/next door neighbor/dog has these items. :coolio:

I agreed! Influencers are NOT accurately reflecting the reality of the situation and/or posts. Take a look at PB's latest reel..so cringe and clearly shes telling a story for her audience. Though she purchased an item, the story behind sound so made up (her voice is max cringe)! Which is fine, but I think an average person maynot realize that...and to your point about the algorithm..I unfollowed both PB and the former FSH SA but they still continually popup in my grid feed because I am following other Luxury influencers and Hermès. LoL.

You can mute any account you want and it won't pop up in your feed...
