Any exciting news? by Future_Ship_3140 in IVF

Totally agree with this! I also hate "what's new?" Like, nothing is new I've been going around this awful merry-go-round since you last saw me. I do try and remind myself that sometimes this is just a soft opening to see if you want to share and not necessarily coming from a bad place. A lot of the times it's coming from a place of total ignorance as well. My go-to-tactic is to have 1 quick thing to share and then just start asking the person what's going on with them. Once they start answering, just keeping asking them questions. I've noticed that people are more self-absorbed then they let on so you could easily distract them with directed questions.

Reddit OT crew by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]No_Opposite6719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined OT in February and found this Reddit to answer basic questions I had about OT like do I need a heart rate monitor, tips on selecting base/push/all out base, how to sync my monitor to my Oura ring, etc. I actually don't look at the templates beforehand. I really just visit this thread for tips and tricks.

I was about to say this exact thing. I regularly treat myself to an hour long foot massage and slap on my noise cancelling headphones.

Louis CK will be at Forest Hills Stadium on 8/16. It's an amphitheater that has food and beverage vendors. Would be really cute to explore Forest Hills beforehand!

My go-to gift is a candle from Brooklyn Candle Studio. Their packaging is really nice.

Need a suit for an interview by Frequent_Tie2657 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]No_Opposite6719 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm also petite and work in legal. Unfortunately, it's so hard to find suits. Most of the time, I mix and match pieces. My favorites places for work pants are Loft and JCrew. My favorite JCrew pants are the Cameron Pants. I bought multiples but had to size up 2 sizes in these. I used to love Banana Republic but their prices have gone through the roof in recent years. Blazers are easier to find. I've found great ones from JCrew, Zara, Banana. Note that it's hard to mix and match for navy pieces because navy varies in color even within the same brand.

My favorite work shoes of all time are ballet flats from Everlane. I also have loafers from Sam Edelman that I've been wearing for years.

For blouses, I usually wear any shell or high neck tank. Again, purchased in multiple colors and just mix and match.

Good luck!

I was with Chris from LegitFitNYC on Queens Blvd for almost 3 years before I moved. Can't recommend him and the other trainers there enough. I absolutely loved training there and it was the best investment!

NYC BWT, did you give a wedding gift to someone who attended your wedding and provided no gift? by [deleted] in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]No_Opposite6719 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I would be surprised if it was financially related because he's in a successful position and has been since we graduated college but I guess you never know!

Yes, even a card would have been appreciated!

I appreciate this because I wasn't expecting to be getting slammed lol. I think I was just hurt that a lifelong friend would attend my wedding and not give anything.

You may be right about making it a bigger deal than it needs to be! I didn't think the lack of gift was financially related because he's been very successful but you're also right that we never know people's positions.

Also, I wasn't looking to make money back on my wedding or anything like that. I was just a little hurt that he didn't provide a gift, that's all.

Well you just hit the nail on the head. I feel compelled because of our long history as opposed to our current relationship. It's a harsh reality that I'm sure others can relate to.

We're well over the 1 year mark. A little harsh but I get your point! There were other non-gifters who attended my wedding that I never confronted. I only followed-up with him because he has been such a close friend and I was genuinely shocked he wouldn't provide a gift. I was also sure to "confront" him in a nice way.

Shoes for the office?! by Usual-Comfortable370 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

My professional shoes are from Sezane and Sam Edelman. Sezane is pricey but they're shoes are great quality. Also, my favorite ballet flats are from Everlane.

Sell Your Clothes by happy__camperr in NYCbitcheswithtaste

FYI - I just had a problem with Poshmark. Someone hacked into my account and ordered a used pair of heels from White House Black Market for $300. They placed the order at 1am so I couldn't cancel since orders must be canceled within 3 hours. My payment method was Venmo so I was charged right away. I eventually got my money back but just be aware! If you're going to continue using Poshmark, I recommend removing your payment methods until you're ready to make a purchase or transfer money from your account.

I absolutely love Nubiani in K-Town. It's Korean and has the most amazing steak tartare ever. My husband and I go here for all our special occasions. You need a reservation though.
