What is the stereotype of girls/women who wear Alice bands/headbands?

I saw an insta post yesterday that was making fun of people who wear them. It also mentioned other really specific things that my girlf wears (Hobbs pleated skirts and shirts from White Stuff.)
I know I shouldn’t get too bothered about this but it’s upsetting knowing people think what my girlf wears is lame/silly.
(The post wasn’t directly about my girlf, just people like her I suppose. It seemed to be saying that she is some kind of ‘stupid posh white girl’ but I’m not too sure.)

I think it was just general mocking of posh girls, but it was weird how specific it was to how she dresses and the brands she wears. One of the comments was ‘the hairband says it all’. And I listened to a drama podcast a couple of years ago that said ‘the type of girl who wears Alice bands’ in a derogatory manor. I didn’t know it was a thing. @YoMomma
