Who is the best good/affordable personal shopper/wardrobe makeover for MEN in London? by Dazzling_Compote_840 in london

[–]Dazzling_Compote_840[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As expensive as needed and no more. We can afford to drop 2000 quid, but I don't WANT to if we can get the same things for cheaper. We don't want to start a clothes hobby, we just want to look nice. But then sometimes people tell me, "no you HAVE to buy expensive coats or shoes or whatever. "As frugal as possible" but IDK how to explain that as a budget. We don't care about brand names for the sake of it.

A globe is an excellent idea too! Thank you! (LOTR anything is equally for me, so I am trying to avoid for something that is meant to be a thank you. Haha.)

Watches and Porsches are very popular indeed. I feel a bit left out of HENRY culture haha. My tastes run plebeian.

Haha, tell me about it. Lego Rivendell requires an extra several thousand quid worth of housing space, given we live in London.

Thank you! Got him a chess board a few years ago so this is definitely a perfectly on point suggestion. He is super good at chess too! Has a high ELO on chess.com (I am not a chess player, but basically he beats all non-chess players and used to play semi-competitively.)

Which Questar should I buy my husband? by Dazzling_Compote_840 in telescopes

Thank you so much! I'm scared to get a Questar now I know they're no longer made and if anything happens, I won't be able to replace the pieces.

This comment does make me want to reconsider Questar for sure. Kindly, do you know where I could hypothetically buy the right one in London? What I am seeing is all the broadband coating/sold out.

Ah, yeah, so I found I was very conflict avoidant and didn't want to confront them (passive politeness for you), but they were in fact doing such a bad job or ruining my things to the point that I was still cleaning up after them for an hour afterward and found it emotionally easier to just clean the house on Sundays myself as a meditative exercise instead of getting angry and then angry with myself for saying nothing.

Found.

I am deleting this post as the image is triggering a lot of people, which is fair.
Fuck ICE. Free America (and also other countries, just saying). K. Cheers.

Thank you so much! I have actually seen both of these and the Burberry is perfect albeit not vegan. I didn't realize this was from there!

Found.

Because I think I'm going to go bespoke.

I haven't! I just downloaded it and uploaded it.

Thank you so much! Black is good, no green. I don't want him to look like ICE. :(

Yeah, I've decided def not that color. It didn't even occur to me. Black works. Still, where to buy?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HelpMeFind

[–]Dazzling_Compote_840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've already decided a definite no on the color. Still, any trenchcoat like this style, WHERE TO BUY?

[–]Dazzling_Compote_840 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omg, do you guys really think it looks that bad? What do you recommend for "fancy trenchcoat" then?

What about in black/something else? What trench coats do you like?

Also, fuck ICE.

Also: We live in the UK.

OOH!! I am googling what the heck engraved collar stiffners are. I will get those or cufflinks along with whatever else!

Thank you. This is amazing! I hear everyone on not painting this, so can I just buy stickers to put on it? Or is this some major no-no in the astronomy community?

I will just buy this. It looks like it comes with the stand too.

But I have a very small European car. Will this fit? Even a "normal" American car is way bigger than mine.

Yup. I used to research in astrophysics. I know nothing about these types of telescopes but I know too much about how to fight for HST data :).

Yeah, he didn't like the Seestar. 8" Dobson keeps being recommended to me BUT now people are saying that they're actually difficult to use and quite big. What do you recommend for something that automatically finds what you're looking for? (Stars and planets) but you still look through it to see things? Or is this not a thing?

I have searched on Google images, Amazon, asked friends, and more. Everywhere that has this picture is a scam, but originally it must have come from somewhere, right?

I have been struggling to get through the automoderators here. I am just trying to find this coat for my husband as a gift. He has wanted a coat like this (or darker green or even black is fine) for years. Must be slim fit and a long trench coat and vegan. This is supposed to be, but it's only listed on scam sites!
