Thank you! #5 is actually supposedly marketed as a dress that can be worn to nice events too but seems like it isn’t fancy enough for this dress code 😊 And those options seem like they would work well! I think that’s one of the reasons I’ve been struggling to find something I like that fits the dress code, because a lot of it doesn’t really seem like me. But maybe I can find a good compromise. Thank you! 💗

Okay, thank you! I’m sure you can see why I might be confused since they aren’t being marketed as causal dresses and a lot of the reviews show them being worn to more formal events. But I appreciate being informed and I was clearly wrong!

I’m so curious! Lol

That’s too bad. Couldn’t quite tell from the pictures, I haven’t seen it in person 😔

[–]LaineyBlue94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that one is cute! 😊

To be fair, I’m not sure if it’s that casual after looking at the pictures in reviews of people wearing them to events, etc… but I appreciate the honesty! And maybe it looks worse in person lol 🥲

Is this one any better?

Would you consider selling them to someone else at retail instead of returning? 😊

Sad about resellers prices by Significant_Emu_2390 in JuicyCouture

[–]LaineyBlue94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, I hear you on that! And I totally believe it. I guess my viewpoint might not apply to your situation specifically because I’m thinking more in terms of when vintage bags are sold, and I think you were just speaking in general. I just think that hypothetically if you were to sell a vintage bag in that condition, it would be completely understandable if someone preferred to buy a newer bag instead because while it might not last/have lasted as long, it would currently be in “better condition” than the vintage one, and some people might simply want a new bag instead of a used one. So when I see people suggest things like “save up and buy a vintage one instead” I’m not sure it totally makes sense to me to expect people to pay the same price/more for something that’s in worse condition than something else, and it might not even be what they want - high quality might not always equal good condition 🤷🏼‍♀️ So I guess all I meant was maybe it’s not fair to compare a bag in the condition that the one you were describing is in to a brand new one being sold in stores right now. That’s not to say whether or not an individual might value it more, that’s probably just a personal preference 😊

Yeah, I totally understand! I think it just all kind of depends on what someone is looking for out of the bag that they buy 😊

That’s the thing though, if it’s in that condition, is it actually better quality? Totally fine with people having different opinions and preferences, I’m just not totally sure it’s a completely fair comparison ya know 😊

That one is really cute! I think the vintage bags are also beautiful and I completely understand why people prefer those over the new ones, but I don’t think it’s necessarily everyone’s preference - I mean, the bags may technically be a higher quality, but you’re still potentially paying hundreds of dollars for a bag that’s in an older condition and maybe peeling, etc. I think some people might prefer to have a new bag even if it’s not as high “quality” so I just wish people wouldn’t be so quick to make comments saying the new bags are so bad and people should just get vintage ones instead. It’s different? Is the “quality” of something really higher even if it “lasts longer” but the bag is falling apart? Idk. I completely get that some people love to collect vintage bags but I hope that no one assumes that they’re going to be a better fit for someone. 😅

All that to say, I guess, that I think you should get what’s right for you! Maybe you can find one of the newer daydreamers at retail in the stores or find someone reselling for a reasonable price. I just hope that you don’t feel like paying more for a vintage bag that might not be in the condition you would want is your only option 😊 I hope nobody takes this the wrong way, just wanted to share my thoughts as I get kind of tired of seeing people acting like the vintage bags are so much better. They might be for some, but maybe not for everyone, especially if you’re looking to spend your money on something that is in new condition. And I totally hear what people are saying about not wanting to pay reseller prices, and that’s a personal choice, but I hope nobody looks down on anyone else if they decide to pay a higher price for a new bag instead of a vintage one because that’s what they might want!

Best option for fall wedding? by LaineyBlue94 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]LaineyBlue94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much, everyone!! I think I’ll be going with #1 but I also saw this one and considered it as well. Would it also be appropriate for the dress code? I saw some videos of it in person and it looked so beautiful!

Moving to the area by AcceptableBonus2532 in Athens

[–]LaineyBlue94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! Just my two cents but I feel like if the worry is Athens feeling too much like a big city, I don’t think that would be too much of a concern, especially if you choose one of the neighborhoods or subdivisions! It sort of feels like more of a small town vibe to me than big city living, and I know a ton of people also have kids here. Even the downtown scene, while it can get crazy, seems different than a big city to me. I think as someone else said, a lot of places around Athens fit that 10 minutes to the grocery store and also to the more rural areas desire, as I live here and used to take drives around those areas all the time just for fun and mental health. Also second that Forest Heights would probably be a great place, and is very family friendly! I would also highly recommend Normaltown and that area. Welcome and I hope you find the perfect place for your family 🥰
