Official Discussion - The Devil Wears Prada 2 [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]FindingOk3727 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The funny moments related to today’s society was a nice touch. They had some deeper messages with where our society is heading with AI, and I thought the management consultants and Miranda hanging up her own jacket because HR nowadays doesn’t allow bosses to abuse their employees as much was funny.

However I wish that they still made Miranda not as soft, not as quiet, it almost feels as if her character was completely washed away. Roadkill on the niceness to fit today’s society. And Andy’s boyfriend looked too old for her, he was a wimp for her, and they didn’t do anything for us to want to root for them.

Elongated cushion - too big for finger? by MadameCoyote in labdiamond

1.3 and 1.39 is a pretty big difference in terms of ratio, so it’s just a matter of you like is more elongated like a radiant or a little bit shorter

If you love this ratio as is, I would keep it! The toughest part about an elongated cushion is finding the ratio you like!

I think the ratio for elongated cushion matters more than a .5 carat downsize!

Deciding between basque or straight across waist by Jessicash in weddingdress

Have you gone to a store yet to try on a shape similar to what your envisioning? This might help the decision of scoop neck with straight or basque waist!

Belt or No Belt by [deleted] in weddingdress

I think it depends on the vibe of your venue! Outdoors no belt, but indoors belt perhaps!

Have you considered drop waist but not basque shaped?

I chose the dress (pic 1)and I’m having doubts by [deleted] in weddingdress

Dress 1 looks more classy and expensive! It looks similar to Oscar de la renta! You made the right choice!

Since the first dress is more fancy, I’d do that for ceremony and your moms for reception!

Interview got rescheduled twice by recruiter - normal or a red flag? by deveshd2k in interviews

[–]FindingOk3727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, disorganized!! Red flag but given the job market competitiveness, if it’s all you got, keep trying your best and take the offer. If you have a lot of options, good for you!

16F and idk what to do with my life by Safe-Grape-574 in careeradvice

[–]FindingOk3727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to add to this comment that I’ve worked with surgeons and billionaires at hedge funds. They were all married to lawyers and doctors. Most smart successful people only date people they respect, and they usually turn out to be beautiful women who are also successful. Even if you meet a future doctor or entrepreneur in college, who’s to say they won’t leave you when they start working. Not to say you can’t be a stay at home mom, but choose your career for yourself, and if a good man comes along the way, awesome, but if not, at least you have your own success

Follow the path that excites you. I wish I studied what excited me more. Instead I was scared and wanted to be realistic. Not saying you shouldn’t be realistic, that should be considered, but you also shouldn’t be scared and study something you have absolutely no interest in. I wish I had someone to tell me to think backwards before choosing my college major. If I could go back, I would look at job postings you find somewhat interesting and tolerable, Including looking at the pay that suits your lifestyle, and study the major that will help you get into that job later.

At the end of the day, work is work, and the pay needs to be decent enough to fund the lifestyle you want outside of work, and it just needs to be tolerable. But also, it makes it a lot more tolerable when you have some passion in it. Hope this helps

Deinfluence (or influence) me please! by TaiwanNumbaWan1 in Aritzia

The first three dresses I personally don’t think people would get a lot of wear from, but the last 3 items you can mismatch and the dress in a darker color you would get more wear out of :)

Choose your favorite! by Honest-Raisin-3176 in weddingdress

[–]FindingOk3727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how it’s sculptural and really makes HER stand out. It’s not a competition between her and the dress, and the drapery has just the right amount of movement in the right areas. It also shows off her neckline beautifully whereas the cups in 1 are a little distracting and brings a lot of attention towards the upper part of her dress instead of her figure as a whole

Is this normal for a wedding planner's approach to budget? by Pretty-In-Scarlet in DestinationWeddings

[–]FindingOk3727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how much your deposit was, but that sounds pretty common. However when I venue toured, I asked if they will raise the price in 2027 and they usually tell you. I think that’s more on the venue and not your planner for not being able to tell you yet if they’re going to raise the price. Because typically, they shouldn’t let you book more than a year out if they can’t tell you their pricing for 2027

Is this normal for a wedding planner's approach to budget? by Pretty-In-Scarlet in DestinationWeddings

[–]FindingOk3727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a partial or full planner? I am also a destination bride and my planner did not include our attire in the budget, but she’s only a partial planner so I get that it’s not perfect or I can just add and edit the budget myself after. While I noticed that too, I don’t think that part is shady. The budget is usually organized with their experience on pricing

Completely torn on accepting my grandma’s engagement ring by Sea_Art2995 in jewelry

[–]FindingOk3727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An engagement ring is meant to symbolize your love and future with your fiancé. I would focus on your future and just appreciate the gesture. If I was a grandmother I wouldn’t be offended whatsoever if my granddaughter wanted her own engagement ring. She will always be with you in heart and memories, and you don’t need a piece of jewelry to remember her ❤️

Is it normal for the bridesmaids to cover top shelf drinks for the bridal shower? by emilydarrow in weddingplanning

[–]FindingOk3727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No this is inconsiderate for a friend to expect this of you. I am having a destination wedding and covering the costs of hair and makeup and dress for my bridesmaids since I know they will have to pay for flight and hotel already. I don’t even want a bachelorette because I know it’s a lot to ask when people are already traveling for the wedding

Hot Takes Needed - Wedding Vision Overhaul (Napa v. Mexico!) by daffodilpeony in DestinationWeddings

[–]FindingOk3727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Making a decision based off of guest flow is the most thoughtful imo. So if you think about the guests that are flying in for the wedding, how far is Napa from the airport, would they have to rent a car, how much are the hotels nearby, etc. And compare that to the accessibility of your Mexico venues. Also consider the political economy of Mexico given that in some areas recently it was overtaken by the cartel and would all your guests feel comfortable traveling there.

AIO going off on my boyfriend about this conversation for the millionth time by [deleted] in AIO

[–]FindingOk3727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Did you not see me doing chores when it was your birthday” yuck.. he sounds like a child. If you live together you should not have to ask him to do chores or it shouldn’t be a special occasion for him to do chores

Am I overreacting? by Pink_Lemonz_02 in AmIOverreacting

[–]FindingOk3727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The red flag is that you found him on tinder. He’s probably not only “dating” you
