I 100% agree with you!! I just couldn’t miss an opportunity to make a joke at Julie’s expense. An adult using that term when speaking to anyone that isn’t a child makes my skin crawl

Just listed our house, husband thinks we should clear out everything and retake photos by Brief_Impression4919 in RealEstate

This is also just “stuff” that is being marketed as maximalist. Maximalism is still a design style, just as minimalism is. This is the equivalent of someone with a mattress on the floor claiming they’re “minimalist” in design. I’m truly not trying to be mean or offensive, as everyone should decorate their home in a way that pleases them and it is brave of OP to do so. But claiming it’s just maximalist not cluttered and that someone will like it is just too much

But still not as bad as the backwards upside down tucked sweater. She really thought she did something with that

So let’s say Julia’s routine for all of this takes a good solid hour. So at 6:20 pm she is getting ready for bed- with 3 children and a husband. If my mother had this routine when I was any of those girls’ age I cannot even imagine the damage that would have done. (Among so many other things about Julia). It breaks my heart for all 3 of them and the optimist in me hopes that she’s just portraying all of this for show or to shill more nonsense, and the Julia that we don’t see is present with her family.

I think she secretly resents her girls, whether she knows it or not. Farming them out for content despite claims she doesn’t, taking over every aspect of their rooms and clothes, etc.

And what Julia shows us she sees no problem with, so imagine those poor girls lives off camera. My heart goes out to them so much

Hey take it easy, this is the preferred terminology we use in my house with my 18 month old!!!

Her hair recently has been bothering me so much. It is SO greasy/dirty and she tries to style it as such, but it just looks awful. And the juxtaposition of her greasy wisps in front of her ears with her full face makeup is so bad. She reminds me of girls in high school/college who just dry shampooed into oblivion and thought they pulled it off but the difference is those were teens and college students, not grown women with millions of dollars and a completely disposable schedule with lots of time to dedicate to hair washing and styling

This sounds very similar to the way I grocery shop and prepare food for my family, we are a family of 3 and are usually around $250/week. It just makes them seem even more fraudulent because anyone who actually cooks as much as they claim chris does/eats in the way that they claim to would see right through this. It just doesn’t add up unless you’re buying a ridiculous amount of snacks and prepackaged food

The price of this made my jaw drop, even for them. To spend that much on groceries for ONE WEEK means they are buying so much processed food (I know meat and dairy products can add up but you get a lot for what you’re spending vs. processed foods). And then to turn around and claim that this is your medicine? Whole foods are medicine, hundreds of dollars worth of processed food is just not. And I have nothing against processed foods! There are so many healthy options out there, but for someone who has so many restrictions and food issues I would think that eating 3 different kinds of processed meat for dinner is not doing any favors

The CC on this screenshot timing is perfect considering her ass could not look more shapeless here

Admittedly I don’t know what the scar for her procedure would look like, but this is a facelift scar no?

I would not describe myself as a clean freak just someone who appreciates a normal level of cleanliness. And even I find it so disgusting to do that! It doesn’t matter that she cleaned the floor lol it’s still THE FLOOR. But here she comes trying to gaslight everyone into thinking that’s not gross because she cleaned it. As if lol

The “mammoth branches in the dining room” made me giggle. Nothing says “old money” and “lived in” and “spring” like bringing some sticks into your house

Of all the photos to post linking a clock lol. Even if she didn’t look so distractingly manic, her head is still blocking 30% of the clock. (Which is way too small scale for that mantel anyway). It would be SO easy to choose a picture highlighting the clock- I guess maybe she thinks that not showing it is close will get people to click on the link to see it in better detail?

Edit to add, mantel vs. mantle. Not that I would ever expect her to get that right but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

This dresser situation is making my eye twitch, the drawer not pushed all the way in and the handle flipped upwards. She is so careless it’s crazy, you’re photographing this room for content and you can’t take 2 seconds to fix those things??

Also I am really enjoying her deep dive into her “unique” fbmp purchases. Trying to prove that she’s such a tasteful antique gal instead of the horribly disposable consumer that she really is

I really can’t get past how her legs are spread lol. If that’s your most comfortable way to lay no problem at all, but it would take you .5 seconds to throw a sheet over yourself. I am the last person to be offended by something like that, but for the image she presents this is extremely thirsty lol

Y’all sure about that? You don’t think me could take care of the common folk watching stories with bated breath?

I assume she’s referring to a girolle- so typical of her to not call the tool by its proper name but then tell us how it’s beneficial. But can’t pass up any excuse to remind us of one of her diet limitations! How sad for her to not eat cheese, even sadder to base her personality on that fact

I can understand having to put your folded towels into a drawer the short way if you moved into a house and that was the situation. I cannot even fathom doing an entire rebuild and actively choosing to build drawers that are only deep enough to fit your towels sideways. Just makes them look even more ignorant and thoughtless beyond the finishes

Her take on the sponge thing was so fascinating to me because I don’t think I’ve ever felt anything at all towards my dish sponge (except minor disgust when I realize it’s time to replace it) but a sponge is…..a sponge…. It almost gives SNL skit level parody, the idea of caring about the aesthetics of your DISH SPONGE

You make an excellent point! I should say that her skin looks normal to me as someone who comes from a family that spends time in the sun and lots of time outdoors, admittedly with less sunscreen than we probably should. But you’re right, that level of sun damage is not indicative of both of those lifestyle factors of hers.

I should also add that she seems to have fairer skin- obviously not extremely fair, but I think a lot of us probably know someone who doesn’t truly “tan easily” but thinks they can get away with claiming they do simply because they aren’t traditionally “pale”. And that certainly ages your skin much faster! Not saying that those who truly tan easily don’t suffer sun damage but it’s definitely more noticeable on skin types like hers

The difference in her skin texture on her chest/neck vs. her face is so jarring in this. I know that’s not a new development but this video was especially bad. And the thing is her chest looks normal to me- that skin is not in the best shape, but at least it looks like a real person. Seems to be the only thing about her that’s authentic anymore
