Answer

'In the thick of it/ in the thick of something' - completely involved in an activity or a situation

I find the example here confusing. I can guess that 'in the thick of me' relates to being interested in the person's physical appearance ('in the glam thing and dressing up every day') and in this context, it would make sense to me. But the beginning of the sentence refers to people other than the person speaking ('they'), which got me confused.

Answer

Being a thick of something means very involved in some thing and have a passion for it
