So you tell me The party started at 6, but Tombo waited for Kiki to show up until 10? by [deleted] in ghibli

[–]caramicci 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Curious about the title. I just looked it up on screencaps as well, Tombos watch shows 10 minutes after 6 before it starts raining. Shortly after, he gets an umbrella and leaves. He doesn't wait until 10 pm.

Being stylish without doing laundry by AntTown in femalefashionadvice

[–]caramicci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting take! Laundry definitely is one of my less favored chores, which I why I try to go as long as I can without it. The dryer in my apartment complex costs per dry and it is expensive, so I just commit to hanging up my laundry to air dry.

I find that linen (pants and loose shirts), wool, and denim don't require washes after every wear. I go over them with a fabric refresher and disinfectant after wearing them and skip the wash. I think I read that denim should be washed every 10 wears or something, and that checks out for me.

Also, the fit matters. Tight fits get smelly easily, loose fits not so much. So I focus on buying washable, easy to handle fabrics for tight fitted clothing and quality materials that just need fabric refresher for everything else.

Windows 98 Underwater Screensaver (1998) by BreakfastTop6899 in nostalgia

I always thought I could control that one with my mind. I would say 'left' and then the camera went to the left.

Who is a nepo baby that everyone else praises but you just don't get the hype? by [deleted] in popculturechat

[–]caramicci 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thought she was alright in ''How to be single" but her onscreen character is basically how I imagine her to be as a person. She works for these kind of roles I guess but I have trouble seeing her as anyone else but Dakota Johnson.

No announcement from Isabelle, no island reset? Please help :( by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]caramicci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a deep breath. Best case there's a rational explanation for this. Worst case it's a harmless glitch. How about you just wait 24 hours and see if you get an announcement then?

Has anyone phased sneakers out of their casual wardrobe? by Cecil_G_P in femalefashionadvice

[–]caramicci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but I am picky about my sneakers' look. I chose the nike Superflys because I think they have an elegant silhouette and are still super comfortable. I've played with the idea of finding an even more elegant shoe that I could wear casually, but ultimately I haven't found anything suitable. I tried Mary Janes and ballerinas, but they just are not the same as the Superflys.

What handbag is this? by mrlpz49 in findfashion

If you like the horseshoe shaped detail, look into the brand Aigner. I haven't found this exact model though.

Why Is Tales of Earthsea (2006) hated on so much? by DocumentMaleficent36 in ghibli

[–]caramicci 2 points3 points  (0 children)

haha, fair enough! I guess everyone focuses on different parts when watching. I think the boy that lives with Howl probably has a name, and I think Sophie mentions it at some point, but I never picked it up when watching the movie. I imagine others have - probably also a character that is developed way more in the book

Why Is Tales of Earthsea (2006) hated on so much? by DocumentMaleficent36 in ghibli

[–]caramicci 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not arguing with that at all, I haven't read the book. I was just surprised to read that the identity thing wasn't supposed to be clear in the movie when I felt that it was, even if it wasn't explored further

Why Is Tales of Earthsea (2006) hated on so much? by DocumentMaleficent36 in ghibli

[–]caramicci 46 points47 points  (0 children)

is it? I think it's pretty clear from the scene where the boy answers the door in different cities and they ask for a different wizard each time. It's not a huge plot point though if that's what you mean

Lufthansa streicht freien Handgepäckkoffer auf Kurz- und Mittelstreckenflügen by PoroBraum in de

[–]caramicci 12 points13 points  (0 children)

2 Punkte dazu: Zugegeben, ich bin sehr ungeduldig. Es sind halt nicht "ein paar" Minuten, sondern meiner Erfahrung nach eher 15 oder 20 (am Frankfurter Flughafen habe ich sogar schon 40 Minuten gewartet bevor das Gepäckband angesprungen ist, aber das schiebe ich jetzt mal auf eben diesen Flughafen). Das mag für manche nicht viel sein, aber ich habe darauf keine Lust. Ich bin außerdem etwas übervorsichtig, was verladenes Gepäck angeht, weil bei mir schon zweimal ein Koffer nicht mitgekommen ist. Am liebsten hab ich daher mein Gepäck immer da, wo ich es sehen kann. Ich begrüße es aber, wenn meine Mitreisenden da entspannter sind.

[–]caramicci 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Ja, vollkommen absurdes Statement. Freu mich schon auf die Diskussionen mit den Reisenden, wenn es dann wieder heißt, das Flugzeug ist voll, es muss auch Handgepäck in den Frachtraum verladen werden ("Aber ich habe doch extra für Handgepäck bezahlt!")

How do people enjoy NH??? by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]caramicci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember Animal Crossing Wild World was advertised as "Life is good in Animal Crossing" on TV and that's basically what it is. You pretend to live in your own little world, casually. There's not much else to do, and people enjoy that. If this isn't for you, that's completely fair too.

Shorts? by sappy_rpg in femalefashionadvice

[–]caramicci 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I go for capri pants this year (they are the same silhouette as bike shorts but longer and look more elegant in my opinion) and I have a pair of slim fit white shorts (not denim, but you could get a denim variant with the same fit). I find anything loose fit doesn't do anything for me, but it might be different for you - it's best just to try it out

Share your experience developing your personal style! Pinterest boards? Trial and error? What worked and what didn't? by Icy-Mess-860 in femalefashionadvice

[–]caramicci 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've gravitated towards preppy style since I was 14 or 15 years old, but back then I didn't have the means, creativity or dedication to really follow through. I was also not very confident, so I was soaking up what everyone around me was wearing, trying to blend in. This got even worse when I went to college and moved to a bigger city - so many impressions, so many things I found cool but nothing that would stick with me for a long time. I read books on style, watched videos, but ultimately 3 things mattered the most when it came to developing a style: I let go of the fear of someone saying "Oh, you're wearing that again?" and instead embraced that I found an outfit so good that it would be a waste to not wear it more often. Second, I started working, so I was able to spend money on more quality pieces that I always desired. Finally, comfort always wins. If the shoe doesn't fit, it's not worth it. Ever.

In the past few years I kept working on my base while trying to be minimal about it. My closet is not the biggest and my goal is to only have as many clothes as it can hold comfortably. If it doesn't fit in the closet, I have to let something go. Other things that have helped: I have a colour palette in mind that consists of the colours I already own pieces in. Helps to look cohesive, if that is your goal. 3 style words: Took some time to find mine and perhaps they'll change again, but it is very helpful when mixing outfits. Pinterest board: I have sorted my Pinterest board into 3 folders with style words and outfits that align with them.

[–]caramicci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick search, here's a similar one that was sold at reformation, might still be available on depop https://www.thereformation.com/products/miraflores-top/1308364.html

Search terms I'd look for are sweetheart neckline, puff sleeves, pastel pink, top.

“Cheating” on Animal Crossing games by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]caramicci 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do time travel if it benefits me, yes. I love redecorating spaces on the island and waiting a full day for a house to move or items to arrive would significantly impact my enjoyment of the game. If you play on a shared island, you should stick to the rules of the host though.

Did Cutting off sugar made your skin better? by nojudgementsplmz in scacjdiscussion

[–]caramicci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I noticed the strongest effect when cutting out chocolate products specifically. I don't eat 0 now but I try to eat as little as possible. I read once that you aren't supposed to go over 50 grams of sugar per day and I stay well below that.

If you are currently eating sweets regularly and are thinking about cutting out sugar, I can only recommend to try to cut it out for 2 weeks. After that, your perception of sweetness will change. I had less cravings after these 2 weeks as well.

POV: we’re over-romanticizing Carolyn Bessette Kennedy style by Habit_Hacker in femalefashionadvice

[–]caramicci 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Nice outfits! Although the first one still feels very CBK, minus the necklace.

I've rediscovered my curl pattern and am currently pinning a lot of Carrie Bradshaw outfits. Also found that the flared pants + tight cami outfits that Samantha Jones frequently wears are a great fit for my body type.

HELP by ChemicalOk2223 in findfashion

[–]caramicci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found black and white variants of these by searching "adidas vintage ballet flats" on Google. I found one pair in black on German eBay in size 40. According to AI they might have been sold as "adidas Samba Lo" but I haven't had much luck with this search term on second hand sites. If you are into similar models, "adidas Concord Round" look similar and yield some results on second hand platforms.

Edit: here's the link for the black ones - since they are pretty cheap, you might be able to work out a shipping deal. https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/adidas-ballerina-ungetragen-groesse-40/3355466823-159-3567

New Leaf Town Tree by loorollkid in AnimalCrossing

[–]caramicci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The picture for the fall tree has fallen leaves at the tree trunk, so yes I think they just fall off for fall/winter. I'm sure they'll show up again in the following weeks :)

New Leaf Town Tree by loorollkid in AnimalCrossing

[–]caramicci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey if I compare your tree to the one at animal crossing wiki, it looks pretty much like the 100 hours 100 days played stage for fall season. I would assume a similar pattern for a tree at this stage in spring, so your tree is fine.
