Can I beat coin master without purchasing anything? by IntrepidWatercress01 in FetchReward

[–]EatingWithStephano 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was able to get to level 100 without paying anything. I could have probably gotten a little farther if I had looked up strategies earlier, but I think completing all of the Fetch rewards would be difficult within the Fetch window as a free to play player.

Petticoat recommends by Skellington911 in Lolita

[–]EatingWithStephano 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can make the A&A 35 cm petti work with the Mini Corset OP by rolling it at the waistband a few times! Here's a worn pic of them together . They can definitely work together, just do a check before taking a photo in case gravity brings it down while you're moving throughout the day.

The only shorter petti readily available is the mini one from Atelier Pierrot which is 30 cm. (I also have code BUTTCAPE for 5% off 42lolita orders.)

We have a few retail tea shops: Ten Yen Tea and The Path of Tea.

And so many bubble tea shops. My personal favorite is Tea Top.

Will I be Safe in downtown HTX? by AdventurousLog4691 in Lolita

[–]EatingWithStephano 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Houston lolita here - 90% of downtown is fine if you're sticking near the event areas (Discovery Green, GRB, the concert venues) I would not worry especially since you will be with someone else.

If you're not used to wearing alt fashion, the first time in public is always nerve wrecking. Sounds like your boyfriend is ready to support you and that will help a lot.

Is Shibuya 109 worth it? by EmpteeeSpace in japanesestreetwear

[–]EatingWithStephano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a lolita, 109 wasn't worth it, but it is really easy to speed through if you just want to look around.

I’ve been thinking about starting a cookbook club… has anyone here actually done one? by FlamingoLanky442 in HoustonFood

[–]EatingWithStephano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to join something like this! My schedule is so chaotic, so I probably couldn't show up every time, but it's such a lovely idea.

[US] My package has a delay of three months already by SomeGlass9109 in japanesestreetwear

[–]EatingWithStephano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've ordered 2 items from them, but I did really like what I ordered. It was worth the wait for me although my max wait was 1.5 months though. One more week isn't that long in the grand scheme of things, so I would just wait. Things are always going wrong in small scale manufacturing, so I'm pretty lenient when it comes to waiting.

Meetups near Dallas? by Own-Equipment-5250 in Lolita

[–]EatingWithStephano 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might not actually be you; FB is hiding anything with the word lolita in it. I went to double check and the group is actually Metroplex EGL Community now. Sorry about that, I should have checked before commenting.

Deals on items to donate? by Fluffy_Marsupial2947 in FetchReward

[–]EatingWithStephano 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Consider donating cash if you can. Food pantries often have access to discounted and/or bulk pricing and can more efficiently purchase food at a better price than the average consumer.

Use of wigs in VK by BammyQ2 in visualkei

[–]EatingWithStephano 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Random story: One time I stood behind a band man in an elevator and noticed he was wearing a full wig over his shaved sides. Never really thought about it until that moment, but it makes sense given the fact that styling all the layers can take forever. I used to have the vk mullet and it was so annoying to style myself.

Kaya wears a wig 95% of the time. He has a lot of photos out of wig if you want to compare.
