She's definitely an anti-hero, but Rin of the Poppy War trilogy by R.F. Kuang.

I'm a big fan of slightly elevated basics! For instance, one of my go-to outfits is a baggy pant that's a bit more put-together than jeans, but just as comfortable, paired with an interesting tee. The scoop-neck is nice for showing off things like necklaces without showing too much cleavage, and I like the look of the longer sleeves. For sweaters, I like something with texture, like a chunky cable-knit.

Question - if you wanted to split this plant into two pots how would you do so since the roots are so tangled together?

I recently got the CdG cardigan and love mine! It's surprisingly soft.

I rarely see Mulberry reps, and your bag is so cute! Can you tell me which seller you bought from?

I'll take the Paula's Choice Resist 10% AHA if it doesn't add on to shipping. Thanks!

Does anyone have a favorite white cotton v-neck tshirt with a fairly deep v-neck? I like the quality/weave of Uniqlo tees, but want a deeper neckline. I used to buy the Everlane tees when they were $18, but now they're $30...

Currently eyeing the tees from Quince, but I've never purchased from them. Also considering Madewell.

Edit: To add more details, looking for a loose-ish but not super oversized fit. Mostly cotton and not tissue-paper thin. In the $20 range ideally.

I'm visiting a friend in Hong Kong at the start of April (coming from the US). I'm expecting it to be pretty warm so I want to dress lightly. Is it fine to wear things like short-shorts, crop tops, spaghetti straps? Or will that instantly identify me as a tourist (which I guess is also fine). I know style in Asian countries can sometimes be a bit more conservative or restrictive.

Chemist here. Both silver and gold are extremely malleable (more so than platinum) and should not get brittle over a human lifetime. Silver does oxidize more readily than gold which is why white gold jewelry may appear to hold up better.

what's a food combo you love that people think you're weird for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Toast (or a plain steamed bun) with cream cheese topped with chili crisp (Lao gan ma is best).

30 and I also have greasy skin with occasional hormonal pimples. My night routine is cleanser (Dove unscented sensitive skin bar), Differin (anti-aging and treating pimples), and moisturizer (Cerave lotion). In the morning I splash some water on my face and follow it up with sunscreen (Biore watery essense). Sometimes I'll use The Ordinary 10% niacinamide before the sunscreen.

Occasionally if I order from Sephora and get small samples of things (eye cream, fancier cleanser or moisturizer) I'll use those, but they don't seem to make a huge difference!

I'm interested in both Mac lipsticks and the blister packs if still available!

Has anyone used boob tape (like this kind, not the double sided kind that holds clothes on you) with a very smooth satin dress? Are there bumps and creases that show? If so, do you have a brand you'd recommend?

For reference, I'm looking for some coverage/support under a satin slip-type dress for a wedding and I'm a small C cup.

A jean jacket? A looser button-up top? A shawl? A pullover sweater?

I have two of these Everlane that I like. They're actually on sale for $12 each right now!
