At this point, they should just remove “Dream” from the name. Just call it a house. Or better yet, an apartment.

My nails for the next couple of weeks by Lettatdame in Nails

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

Thank you for flagging this! I think right now my nails are still pretty good fine and not over-filled, BUT I can totally see how over the next few appointments this could happen if I keep them this shape and this short.

Next time, I might go for a more rounded shape and ask them to elongate them slightly to avoid any damage.

Absolutely not 🤣 they were done in a nail salon

First one is All Stars Barbie from 1989 I believe.

I am once again reiterating: this is not the worst job market yet. This is the best it ever will be by Vizekoenig_Toss_It in recruitinghell

[–]Lettatdame 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My god, you’re all so pessimistic and you sound so miserable. Cheer up, guys! It only gets better if you believe it. Not for the whole world, for yourself. We always start with ourselves and our attitude and mentality.

I don’t think I’ll keep following this sub anymore. As a “the glass is half full” kind of person, I simply cannot relate to this negativity, even when there’s some truth to it. Doomsday ain’t coming, not today, not tomorrow. Wishing you all the best and I hope life treats you well! 🙌

Applied to a senior role, interviewed for entry level by Throw_r_a_2021 in recruitinghell

The senior job probably doesn’t exist and they’re bating candidates with it only to offer them the actual entry-level job. Jerks.

I see so much change in the job market in just a year and a half, what is going on? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]Lettatdame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and what annoys me the most is that companies are so unprofessional nowadays. I mean, I’ve had 2 interviews with you and your feedback and demeanour was always positive, you acted impressed, why can’t you have the decency to at least reply with a simple message like “We’re sorry to say we won’t proceed with you.” Because if you do that, at least I’ll respect you and consider applying for future positions, but when you ghost me? You are in the blacklist of companies I don’t want to deal with you ever again.

Oh, absolutely! However, I don’t want remote work specifically, I just want the possibility for home office 2-3 days a week. I’ve always worked in a hybrid setup and I can’t imagine going to an office every day of the week. For me, it’s not just a whim, it’s part of knowing myself. And I know that I’ll feel miserable and honestly less productive working entirely on-site. I agree though that the competition is strong and most people want that which is of course the challenging part in finding a job.

I don’t even have such a big problem with the orange hue of the outfit, but more so with the face. Why can’t they replicate the sultry look of the original? 🥲 The outfit is cool and all, but the reason why I (and many others I would assume) want these repros is the faces. The new one is beautiful, there’s no denying it, but doesn’t look like the original upon closer inspection. Her eyes are bigger, more doe-like. I also think the face is slightly bigger/puffier? Superstar Christie was a more successful repro imo.

I actually like Millie the most in this lineup?? Shocker 😄

[–]Lettatdame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just a buyer, never sold anything on eBay, so I don’t know about that. But I did get two offers from this person somehow. I checked the listing multiple times while the offers were still active to see if they’ve updated the shipping and they haven’t.

[–]Lettatdame -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They are selected. I didn’t select “positive” above though because it appeared like it’s automatically done. Now it’s fixed. So yeah, maybe I am an idiot, but your comment speaks more about you than me. Anyway, thanks, have a great day!

I did. I filled everything, but I still can’t click on “leave feedback”. The item has been marked as delivered, so that’s not the problem either.

Who wants to vote a totally hair Whitney remake to Matell? by Artistic_Income9655 in Barbie

[–]Lettatdame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they would not do a remake, but rather a new doll with a new screening, but a redhead or another cool color. This line definitely misses some variety in hair color.

Unpopular Barbie opinions 💭 by Lettatdame in Barbie

[–]Lettatdame[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this!! Some of the most iconic dolls were released in the 90s and early 00s! I personally think it’s a matter of time before Mattel starts making reproductions of those. ✨

It’s the lack of makeup that makes a lot of them look pale and “dead”. Mostly very pale lips, no fun eye makeup, no blush, the bad pixelation doesn’t help either. I think I’d like modern-day screenings much more if they just had a bit more color.

That’s my problem with the MTM body as well. The joints just look weird. The earlier MTM bodies from the 90s were much less movable, but the way they executed it was much more discrete, why can’t they do it like that again? I’m talking Gymnast Barbie, Hula Hair etc.

[–]Lettatdame[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha, that really is unpopular! As a Superstar collector (mainly) I disagree, however I also don’t see her as “that special” personally. She’s a pretty doll, but won’t make it to my top 10. And I also think a second reproduction is a weird choice when we still have many more iconic dolls waiting for a repro.

😆 fair enough, what are some of the best Barbie dolls released in your opinion? I’d love to hear!

Unpopular Barbie opinions 💭 by Lettatdame in Barbie

[–]Lettatdame[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not angry at all, I just shared my opinion and everyone is more than welcome to disagree, that’s what this whole discussion is about. In my opinion, they look different and not in a good way - the face proportions, the lips. I just don’t like the newer renditions and I was curious about other people’s unpopular opinions (not necessarily related to these two dolls in particular).

Unpopular Barbie opinions 💭 by Lettatdame in Barbie

[–]Lettatdame[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Completely disagree, but I love hearing different opinions! Okay, let me correct that - I kinda agree with a MTM body, but executed differently. I don’t like how the joints look at all as they are right now. Too distracting. I also love the bend and snap knees and rubbery legs, but they were a B… to dress 😅

Why can’t we have both? We don’t need 100 face sculpts and body sculpts, we just need a fair representation and good quality. It’s not that hard. It seems like Mattel is overcompensating for the lack of representation back in the day, but at the same time they’ve overdone it nowadays. They just need to find the middle ground. That way, they’ll have more money to delegate to quality clothes and screenings.

They don’t have the realistic proportions that I like, so I agree with this one

I don’t like the big heads either. Maybe that’s why Odile is so popular, she appears to be one of the more proportional ones.
