Kathleen Post Reveals The Wildest DMs She’s Ever Gotten: 'I Wish I Could Unsee It'

In an industry where trends move faster than TikTok scrolls, Kathleen Posthas mastered the art of staying timeless. The Indianapolis-based creator has become one of fashion and beauty’s most trusted digital voices, amassing more than half a million followers who turn to her for style inspiration, beauty finds, and lifestyle rituals that feel both elevated and approachable. Known for her polished yet effortless aesthetic, Post has built a loyal following where women, who make up 96% of her audience, feel seen, inspired, and encouraged to embrace fashion as self-expression.

“Having a predominantly female audience is honestly the best feeling,” she told The Blast. “My page is meant to be a safe, uplifting resource for women, and seeing that the data reflects my vision is very rewarding.”

When Post began sharing outfit ideas and beauty tips a decade ago, she had no idea it would evolve into a full-fledged career. “I’ve always been a big dreamer, so I hoped to build something meaningful, but I couldn’t have pictured this,” she said. “When I started, the space looked completely different. As the platforms evolved, doors opened that I didn’t even know existed.”

That early consistency and commitment to showing up for her audience laid the foundation for what has now become a trusted brand. From morning routines to makeup must-haves, Post has carved out a corner of the internet where confidence and authenticity coexist beautifully.

Post’s collaboration with Abercrombie has become the stuff of influencer lore. Her multi-season collections have repeatedly sold out, each drop met with more anticipation than the last. “There are a few factors at play,” she explained. “I’m sharing pieces from a brand I genuinely love and had a hand in creating, so my passion comes through the screen."

Post also told The Blast that she "takes [her] audience’s feedback from previous launches to refine the next one." "That ongoing conversation and trust between me and my community is what makes each collection feel personal and better every time," she said. It’s that direct connection that has made Post not just a face of modern fashion but a collaborator shaping what women actually want to wear.

For all her polish, Post’s personality shines through in every candid confession. When asked which celebrity closet she’d ransack, she didn’t hesitate, admitting, “Easy answer. Morgan Stewart. She never misses!”

And while fans may see a perfectly curated vanity on her feed, what’s hiding on her real bathroom counter might surprise them. “A big bag of disposable lancets,” she laughed. “My esthetician told me they’re perfect for safely extracting a zit when you really need to, so now they’ve earned a permanent spot on my counter!”

Her favorite daily ritual? “Ten minutes of morning meditation while wearing a red light face mask,” she revealed. “And my Cakes Body sticky circles. They’re an absolute lifesaver. I wear them instead of a bra most days!”

With over half a million followers, Kathleen Post’s DMs are bound to get interesting, but not always in the best way. When asked about the wildest message she’s ever received, she didn’t hesitate to laugh. “Unfortunately, I’ve received some photos I wish I could unsee,” she admitted to The Blast. “Let’s just say the block button is my best friend, and it helps me keep that 96% female ratio so strong.”

With that being said, some of Post’s favorite moments happen offline. “I’ve met followers all over the world, in Hawaii, Rome, and even at my local Target,” she said. “Sometimes they’re wearing something I’ve shared, and I love seeing those pieces on them. I’ve even helped followers find the right foundation shade at Sephora. It’s super rewarding to meet people face-to-face.”

Fresh off the excitement of her third Abercrombie collection, Post isn’t slowing down anytime soon. “There are a few really fun projects in the works, but I hate to tease something too soon,” she said. “For now, I’m focused on being a resource for my audience, especially as we head into my favorite time of year. Fall and the holidays are when I feel most inspired.”

As for the future of influencer culture, Post sees creators like herself becoming key collaborators in shaping the fashion industry. “Brands are starting to see influencers as more than just a way to drive sales,” she said. “We’re creative partners with real insight. I love sharing feedback from my community with brands. It helps them improve and evolve. There’s so much opportunity when brands view influencers as part of the creative process.”

Between her sold-out collections, trusted recommendations, and effortless sense of style, Kathleen Post represents a new kind of influencer, one who’s equal parts approachable and aspirational.
