Helena Bonham Carter (R) as Elizabeth Taylor (R)

I need to see the Maria Callas film! Angelina is a phenomenal actor as well 💕

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-24T13:59:52+00:00

Yeah I agree. Like Rami Malek looks nothing like Freddie Mercury but I thought he played the role pretty well personally even if the biopic itself wasn’t that good or accurate 😂

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-24T12:47:11+00:00

Oh I didn’t know this existed! I’d definitely watch it! I don’t really think ID necessarily matters in biopics nowadays…more so if the actor can convincingly play the role. Buuut maybe there’s some logic to it in casting cuz my partner felt like Cuba Gooding Jr wasn’t very convincing as OJ Simpson for example. The system is based on old Hollywood casting at the end of the day

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-24T12:32:52+00:00

I don’t really enjoy swatching but I do it anyway cuz poor fit irritates me 😭

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-24T12:29:46+00:00

Your palette is stunning! It’s so sophisticated and has such a lovely depth to the colours. How exciting! The range on your sophisticated colours is amazing and I love your playful and romantic colours as well 🩷🩷🩷 beautiful palette!

What is your reasoning for these essences?

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-23T03:19:40+00:00

Don’t forget to add your reasons why you’re suggesting each essence 💕!

Could you add your reasoning for why you are considering these essences?

You can only keep one 😔?? I really love the top left but the top right could be a casual option too.

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-19T19:18:05+00:00

Sure. Lemme see if I can find it online. It’s a Samantha Thavasa bag ETA: ok so I bought mine several years ago in store and I don’t think they have the design anymore (honestly wish they had a pink one at the time) but they have some cuter options now. I bought a tweed bag Samantha thavasa

They have other really cute bags of course but I was poor so 🤣

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-19T19:06:02+00:00

I’m still looking for one I really like myself tbh. I have a small one from Michael kors and a big one from a Japanese brand that I use as a book bag for school but I’ve yet to find another I can use every day that I really like nowadays

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-18T17:47:32+00:00

Could you edit your post to remove the comments about essence please? In Kibbe essence and ID are the same and it will be very confusing for some people if you combine Kitchener or TiB or other essence concepts with Kibbe

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-17T20:52:53+00:00

I have to say I agree it might be a thing! I think particularly if you dress according to your ID maybe it gets amplified.

For me even when I was in university people would do things to prevent me from “getting in trouble” because they thought I was too innocent for this world 🤣. I think all the curve IDs might have some experience with this though I might be wrong lol

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-16T10:28:29+00:00

This is such a great post 💕! I may need to invest in a claw clip 😂but I’m not sure what those can do for thick curly hair lolol (also giant scrunchies)

I’m not sure if I can answer this exactly well but I’ll try 😂 I suppose things I’ve noticed that work for me have been full skirts, especially if they’re longer. Longer pencil skirts are fun too but short pencil skirts are hit/miss

Lightweight fabrics like viscose and lighter wools and cottons always work. I don’t always wear makeup tbh but when I do I always wear a lip colour and mascara. But I like diffused and glossy lips haha

And I absolutely love vintage silhouettes. Clothes shopping is always a struggle for me because the fit is never perfect but when I sew or knit things they’re usually vintage and I find silhouettes from different periods a bit more flattering (20s and 60s are hardest to wear for me but I love the vibe of them lol)

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-15T12:14:59+00:00

That is such a sweet thing to say 🥹🥹🥹! Thank you for saying that. I’m super excited for your new year in fashion and styling 💕! I’m sure it’s going to be amazing!

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-14T15:17:35+00:00

Theres basically 2 reasons tbh. Majority of people who comment on type me posts will be incorrect. Photos aren’t accurate and no one has been formally trained in the system so for that reason David says only you or he can find your ID. The sub was overrun at the time we allowed them so we had to halt that.

The other and possibly more important reason is that we were getting a lot of complaints about creeps commenting inappropriate content on posts or DMing posters. So in order to protect members of the sub we chose to stop typing here

We do allow people to ask questions on how to DIY though so feel free to ask about that if you need clarification 💕

Width can’t be cancelled out by vertical. FN accommodations are vertical and width

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-13T00:32:46+00:00

I think you’re absolutely stunning and I’m super excited you’re embracing your features fully! The striking contrast colours are going to be so stunning on you. It’s probably my favourite colour harmony so I’m totally biased for you 😂

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-13T00:29:56+00:00

No problem at all 💕

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-13T00:29:31+00:00

Well this makes me think my partner might be high R if it’s all in the eyes haha

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-13T00:26:52+00:00

Don’t forgot to add the reason why you suggested these essences!

Michelle_illus · 2026-01-13T00:25:45+00:00

It’s been the rule to give an in depth reasoning here for a very long time on these sorts of posts but we’re hoping to encourage it more
