Too Hot To Handle
tarte is famously known for their outrageous influencer brand trips they host every year. this year is no different. among creators like ken eulich, aspen ovard quickly took down a tiktok where she stated a themed dinner was “tarte on fire”. given the thousands of lives affected by the LA wildfires, this could not have been posted at a worse time. let’s hope tarte can only improve and learn for their next trip.
