One of the primary attractions of Pretty Pastel Please was Alex’s fashion sense. She often showcased a mix of affordable and high-end fashion. Her try-on hauls and outfit ideas are popular among viewers looking for inspiration or wanting to discover new brands.

Alex has addressed a few of her personal struggles on her vlogs. Roughly a year ago, she mentioned her and her husband were going through a divorce. Their marriage had fallen apart after they made a move from Sydney to Tasmania together.
She has also mentioned negative comments by online trolls. “I’ll admit it now, I don’t handle criticism well. I’m not cut out to handle reading negative things about myself,” she said in a post. She talked about how she could receive thousands of positive comments;but, she will remember the one person who said something negative.
Then, in 2022, the Youtuber announced she was diagnosed with ADHD and OCD. She talked about seeing a therapist to help her deal with her anxiety and stress.
