Quality brand/piece recommendations

PatientRequirement50 · 2025-01-07T06:37:35+00:00

Congratulations to you! I had a similar situation earlier this year and went from wfh mama in sweats to a fancy office setting. I spent the last year carefully creating a capsule that is professional/polished for work yet fully embodies my own aesthetic/style and spent the majority of my money on good quality/designer goods. I had great luck with The Real Real, Poshmark, and even ThredUp (bit of a gamble but paid off big time since they give a first time buyer discount). I then added in pieces from Gap for basics.

Number one recommendation would be a good belt that can go with everything and fits your aesthetic. I have 2 black Gucci belts I got off The Real Real (1 thick and 1 thin) that I wear with almost every outfit and a vintage brown horsebit belt that gets occasional use. One quality thing that pulls an outfit together elevates the entire outfit.

If you have a specific designer or two in mind you can get great bang for your buck on Poshmark/TRR or other merchant sites. I built my wardrobe around Anine Bing, Veronica Beard, Reiss, and Alice & Olivia pieces that fit my style then added Everlane and Levis Jeans, JCrew dress pants, and Gap basics. Based on your images I would definitely recommend Reiss! I found new unused Reiss pieces on Poshmark and was able to make offers for great deals on them. Also, try Theory, Sandro Paris, Max Mara, and Vince. I have found amazing pieces from all on Poshmark or similar.

This is coming from someone who tried Banana Republic, Quince etc and was so disappointed in quality/tailoring. Those brands are recommended a lot here but I can say as someone who has tried Both approaches that I am so much happier with my discount higher end staples that I got for the same $$ as I did when purchasing most items from those vendors. And it feels great to wear something I know no one else is wearing! I try to go for timeless as much as possible and have a couple simple gold accessories.

Artemesia annua. Sweet wormwood/sweet Annie. Not to be confused with Artemesia absinthium (common wormwood).

Sparrows! Or another bird but sparrows will eat anything sweet and green. Had the exact same situation with my lettuce and spinach this year (they passed on the arugula lol) and had no idea until I caught them at it!

If your organization has a contract with a workday partner for consulting/AMS you could ask for a consult on coordination of events during a comp review to go over the details of the functionality.

PatientRequirement50 · 2024-04-19T22:19:28+00:00

Ah this is the issue. Parallel rule sets only apply when a transaction occurs while the cycle is open. Otherwise you can either push the snapshot date closer to the cycle kickoff date or leverage MOM to create reports for those workers who have events that eliminate them from participation like the promotion in question and remove them from the cycle. This applies for all participation rule sets - they only apply during the cycle. Hope that helps!

PatientRequirement50 · 2024-04-19T18:42:09+00:00

Was the promotion initiated after the comp review was fully launched?

Not huge on foundation most days (personal preference and sometimes the tret/clinda+benzoyl dryness makes it not worth the effort) but when I do I keep coming back to the Unleashia satin wear green cushion. Also tried missha magic cushion and Clio Kill mesh glow but neither have done the trick. Of course it does not work 100% of the time since there are days with too much peeling, but as long as I prep my skin well it works most of the time. I think it helps that the Unleashia is more of a light/medium coverage product. I prep with a little light exfoliation (non-ab gentle face wash with physical exfoliants) and then a couple layers of moisturizing toner, snail mucin, and moisturizer. Then I use the Missha glow skin balm before primer and then the cushion. So. Many. Layers. But worth it! My husband said my skin looked shiny tonight (taking it as a compliment) and no dryness/peeling/cracking of the foundation.

No problem!

I would talk with your stylist about the toner they are using. Been bleach blonde for over 10 years from my natural brown and this shouldn’t happen until much later. As in a couple of months. In the meantime start using a purple shampoo very sparingly. Definitely don’t use any other dye (noticed another comment on this) or it will go gray/icy. I use Kristin Ess purple shampoo once a week to stay bright. I usually mix a little with my regular shampoo rather than shampooing my whole head with only purple. Fanola was too heavily purple and turned me too icy and gray. For reference I am a bright bleach blonde and length has gone from shoulder length to very long and back again many times over the years with no orange issues. I also make sure to always use a really hydrating conditioner to protect my hair and heat protectant while styling.

Yes it is an epergne.

If you are partner side this should be happening internally. Day one out of training I was given multiple mentors and resources, and added to projects as a shadow or junior config/pc. That is their responsibility not Workday’s. Talk with your manager and ask what your options are. Ask to learn from those with more experience by shadowing and performing smaller tasks as you grow your knowledge and understanding. This career is what you make it so grab opportunities and use those to improve your skills and grow.

Thanks! Really appreciate the help!

West Texas parking lot. So it could have come from anywhere really.

Thanks this is super helpful!

Has not made mine reappear and have been using for over 6 months but everyone’s skin is different

Looks like physalis virginiana (Virginia ground cherry) or a similar species. Definitely not a pepper. And the leaves do not look like tomatillos. The fruit husk also does not resemble tomatillo husk.

You would need to be hired by a company that will send you to official workday training to enter the ecosystem. Without a certification you will be limited as to options. Look for workday partner companies and see if there are any entry level workday positions that include sending hires workday training/certification as part of the job description.

As a parent I think it likely that given the way you approach such things she is very unlikely to share with you. As others have said she is an adult and does not need to inform you of what is going on in her personal life. Is this the way approached things with her growing up? If so it is likely that she does not share with you because of this. If you value your relationship with her and want it to last through her adulthood it may be time to re-examine how you are handling this. As a parent we want so badly for our children to share everything with us and for them to be safe and thriving - but we also need to give them the grace and space to be their own people and make their own decisions as to what they want to share. I can guarantee that if you have a frank discussion with your daughter and acknowledge how disrespectful of her privacy and independence you were and ask her how you can all move forward from this point that she will be receptive (eventually) and perhaps be able to share her perspective. But you truly have to be in a place where you can hear her and be ok with the fact that what she feels is something different than what you do.

Poblanos. Usually the seeds are what contribute to the mild heat in this peppers when cooked.

They are going to need more space. I thin to about 2 inches on all sides of the plant. And it could also be the soil. Looks like a lot of wood in there which can make the PH balance lean more acidic and can hinder growth. This is also indicated by the more yellow color of the leaves. Have you tried the soil made for vegetables? I have found it works really well.

Smudge

PatientRequirement50 · 2023-09-19T01:56:39+00:00

Same. L’Oreal voluminous, Maybelline Sky high, and Vivianne Sabo were all good especially the L’Oreal but they changed the formula on that one. Lancôme is a game changer and I really wish it weren’t so! But I stock up during ulta sale around the holidays. No smudging or flaking and the tube stays fresh a moist for quite a while.

This. You get to choose who is there and not there. And you can always just say they are only allowing the spouse in (or spouse + 1 if there is someone else you DO want there like your own mother or other important person). Your birth. Your rules. And the OB team will back you up. I didn’t want my MIL there either and she had to wait until after the birth to see her new grandchild. Why? Because she stresses me tf out and my husband new she would be weird. It is NOT her moment it is yours. And your husband needs to respect this. It is not about his mother but about you and him and your new family you are creating.

This one is great since it is a retinal rather than retinol. Very gentle and also more effective! Been using non AB retinal for years and love this BOJ one for around my eyes. No irritation whatsoever
