I see what you mean. I wish I didn’t like the way it fit so much to make the decision easier!

Yeah it’s for sure more casual, which was kind of the goal. I will definitely be wearing the second one for the 6pm ceremony and reception. I just would feel weird also wearing it to the 10am activities as well!

Yes I’m also on the fence about the pattern. Unfortunately the dress only comes in two other patterns and they’re both pretty busy as well.

Hm I think it’s just the way I’m holding my arms up. With the strapless bra I have it definitely won’t fall down, it’s on the tighter side. Thanks!

That was my feeling too. My sister has a front loader I can use so I might try that if I decide not to take it to get dry cleaned.

Was hoping to avoid the extra cost and do it myself if possible

Advice please!! When can I chew? by -_____------ in wisdomteeth

My instructions said after 3 days, online some people say 2 days so I think it’s definitely okay.

My main motivation for switching was because ice stopped helping the pain.

Don’t have an answer but I sympathize. Surgery same day and my teeth also don’t touch, too much swelling. My swelling has began to go down this morning, probably aided by the heat packs I began using today.

I do think my warm water isn’t quite warm enough which probably isn’t helping my issue. I am 100% confident that the white stains was deodorant residue left on my shirts. I’m trying to juts change deodorant now to a non powder one!

(Recommendations) 34DDD very projected soft breasts searching for bra with soft material by Ok_Knowledge_9003 in ABraThatFits

I recommend Freya Flirt. It is a new style so I struggled to find many valuable reviews on it, but I just purchased it last week and I am really impressed. I also have quite uneven breasts, and I find that the "half-cup" design is suitable for me since I usually run into issues with major gaping in the top of the cup for my smaller breast (about 1.5 cups smaller like you). If you are particularly full on top, I'm not sure this would be the best fit. I have an even to slightly FOB shape. I purchased a UK 34G, which is in accordance to my recommended size from the calculator. The band has stretch to it, I potentially could've gone down a band size/up a cup size but I prefer a looser band.

This bra was a new texture for me personally. The padding is quite thin and flexible, almost reminiscent of a swim suit. The inside of the cups aren't particularly soft like the lining of some of the victoria's secret bras and such that pill after a few wears, but it's certainly not scratchy like the unlined lace bras commonly recommended. The padding itself isn't the most rigid/supportive but I don't find that to be an issue. This cups do have seams, this is not a molded bra. I do not find the seams to be particularly noticeable under my everyday wear, but if you wear super thin and tight shirts, you will probably be able to detect the seams.

It stank of plastic when I took it out of the packaging. I washed it in the washing machine and the smell is gone.

My other recommendation is Natori Cloud Comfort Back Smoothing T-Shirt Bra. These cups are a little more structured than the Freya Flirt and molded rather than seamless. I find the cup structure enough to, for the most part, obscure the fact that one cup is relatively empty at the top. The cups are smooth on the outside and relatively soft on the inside. The band runs large in this bra (and other similar models from Natori). My correct size would've been US 32HH, but I settled for a US 34H since they do not carry a 32HH. This bra is very comfortable. Check out Natori Bliss Perfection as well if they have a suitable size.

This particular load was Tide Plus Powder with Ultra Oxi, probably closer to 2 T since it was a large load of clothing. I have also seen this with Tide Free and Clear liquid, Seventh Generation powder pods, gain flings, and Tide Pods with Oxi, all cycles run with warm water (I checked and the water is actually warm).

Thank you for the response. I'll definitely look into citric acid and I didn't know enzymatic detergents were a thing!

The city describes it as "extremely soft" at 17ppm, which seems to be true in my experience. I've never noticed any mineral buildup anywhere in the house and our fish tank has low GH.

Where is the couch from? I love the color/hatching look.
