Ashley Tschudin created Choupette's Diary in 2012 as a Twitter account portraying Karl Lagerfeld’s real-life cat. The much loved and highly publicized account has since evolved to Instagram and has become the most popular column on Pretty Connected. Curating luxury lifestyle content, this satirical social commentary spans fashion, travel, pop culture, and beauty recommendations straight from the luxe-living feline’s mouth.
