This 20-year-old influencer is being dragged for how unrealistic her ‘realistic’ daily routine in London is
Because we all have personal trainers and dry cleaners
The 20-year-old London-based influencer Mia Challiner has gone viral for her daily routine, and not in a good way.
People don’t think the video, called “A realistic day in my life as a 20yr old living in London with my boyfriend” is very realistic.
Mia recently moved to London, after previously living in Manchester and the South of France. She shares her flat with her 23-year-old boyfriend.
She starts her day at around 8am. She explains, “I used to not be a morning person, and wake up around 10/11am. Since moving here, I’ve got into a better routine and sleeping schedule, and my mornings now start at around 8am.” I guess you can wake up when you like when your job is influencing?
Mia’s first task is “a reset” of her mega-fancy London flat. Her nearest tube station seems to be South Kensington. First floor one-bedroom flats in that area generally cost more than £2,400 a month. To be fair, she has a lot of blinds to open (Image via Instagram)
Her chores appear to consist of opening the blinds, folding her laundry, and putting the laundry into the fitted wardrobes.
She then makes coffee with what looks like a £278 Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee Machina and milk frother.
Her breakfast does look pretty fit – homemade avocado guacamole and tzatziki on toasted wholemeal sourdough bread. It doesn’t look cheap, though.

Before actually eating the breakfast, Mia films herself leaping up to hug and kiss her boyfriend. Because who doesn’t do that at 8:15am every day?
After brushing her teeth in her marble bathroom, Mia cracks on with her pre-gym skincare and make-up routine. She shared the products she uses in the comments below. They cost £78.
Mia then heads off to the gym. “I’ve started training with a PT (personal trainer) once a week which I’ve been loving, and she showed me some amazing leg exercises which I was trying out, and yeah, my glutes were burning after this.” Well, that’s nice for you.
In another recent video called “What I spend in a day as a 20yr old living in London” Mia revealed her gym membership cost £175.
She then sat down for 20 minutes with air compression boots on.
Mia heads home for lunch and to do some admin work on her Apple Macbook with a Coke and some water in her pink Stanley cup. Afterwards, she picked up her dry cleaning.
Because Mia hasn’t explored much of London yet, she went with her boyfriend to do some sight-seeing in Covent Garden. I’m pretty certain the only sight you can see in Covent Garden is tourists being ripped off for £60 candles, but each to their own. They stopped off for cocktails, chips and a Diet Coke, which probably cost a small house deposit.
Well, it looks like a very nice day. Assuming you could afford it.
The people in the comments section were not impressed with the London influencer’s daily routine.
Someone wrote, “There is nothing realistic about you or that day.”
“Trust fund? Or parents have bought you your first property? Either way, you’re promoting a lifestyle that is completely unachievable for 99% of people,” another added.
One person wrote, “Note to those watching: this may be realistic for this person but it is completely atypical. A 20-year-old would either live in a box room of a shared house in an ok area or a slightly larger room (shared) in an unsalubrius area. Keep it real ✌️”
“Blocking accounts is so tiring,” someone said.
