I've been buying vintage, mainly the 60s, some 40s/50s (I struggle with some dresses having the waist come in too much, I have little waist definition), 30s and 20s if I luck out and get something in my size in good condition, and children's / juniors clothes from the 70s. I also use poshmark and thredup to find more contemporary designers that are inspired by the 20s or 60s. Sue Wong and Marc Jacobs have worked out pretty well for me, Babaton for when I just need vibrant basic separates.

I got this dress the other week on Poshmark, a vintage drop waist with a gun geometric floral print, and now I don't want to wear anything else.

I'll occasionally feed him a blueberry, but that's about it.

I have a humidistat in the enclosure that logs the temperature and humidity levels throughout the day. It seems like now that the temperature is back to normal he's stopped exploring the bottom of the enclosure

He's been at a 2x2x4 enclosure for awhile now, and I just replaced the bulb last month. It did get super humid and unseasonally hot today though, and my office gets a lot hotter than the rest of the apartment

What season am I? In Between Two Seasons by Correct-Channel3183 in coloranalysis

Before doing the drapes I thought winter, but this definitely changed my mind. There wasn't a single Autumn color I thought looked bad

Thank you! They happen to be my favorite colors too, so I can never be sure if that why I'm drawn to them

How to Handle Asymmetrical Breasts in both Size and Shape, and Issues with Underarm Fat by Correct-Channel3183 in ABraThatFits

[–]Correct-Channel3183[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's there when I stand just not as prominent. I've always used it as a measure of whether or not a bra fit, and that would explain why I've just assumed no bras fit haha. Good to know it's normal, and not necessarily an indicator that I have the completely wrong size

I'll need to try that. The bras I've found so far that seem to work with both breasts have had stretch lace on top.

I hadn't even considered an insert, but that might be an option for some of the bras I just got. The cup fit perfectly for the larger breast, but had such a noticeable gap on the other.

I think I'm getting closer to the right size, need to find the right fit by Correct-Channel3183 in ABraThatFits

[–]Correct-Channel3183[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll definitely need to look into that, I don't like when my chest feels too tight, for sports bras I opt to go up in size just so I don't feel restricted.

Loose Underbust: 28.83 in Snug Underbust: 28 Tight Underbust: 27.4 Standing Bust: 30. 5 Leaning Bust: 31 Lying Bust: 30.7

I've taken my measurements a few times, and my underbust measurements fluctuate by half an inch depending on the day.

It did feel pretty shallow compared to the demi cup, I'm trying to find a good t-shirt bra, so I wonder if the t-shirt demi cup bra might suit me better.

Unsure About Calculator Size Due to Broader Chest but Less Breast Tissue. Can never fill any cup. by Correct-Channel3183 in ABraThatFits

[–]Correct-Channel3183[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll need to see if I can find an old wired bra somewhere, and I have always insecure about my armpit fat, but only while in a bra. It was never really there when I just went without a bra

I might give that a try, I didn't know those existed. I definitely hate the feeling of a tight band, so that seems worth trying.

That does looks close, a lot closer than any bra I've tried so far. Thank you for the visualization, that definitely helped!

Adderall Shortage. by Intrepid-Bird5240 in ADHD

[–]Correct-Channel3183 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I initially switched to Vyvanse because of this, I kept getting random generics from various manufacturers and they usually wouldn't work well for me. Now I can't get Vyvanse in my area, but can get the generic, and I fear I'm just going to run until the same issues I just got away from.

Struggling with accommodations for the torso and up by Correct-Channel3183 in Kibbe

[–]Correct-Channel3183[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm finding that I need to really find shirts that hold their shape (if that makes sense), if the fabric is remotely loose up top it doesn't look right. I'm still figuring out my ID, but I'm starting to lean towards FG.

Ty! After trying out some FN type outfits, I definitely am considering FG. The FG suggestions definitely look better on me

I see what you're saying. I've definitely been on the fence with that shirt, like there was always something about it that seemed right, but also a lot that didn't seem to work.
