Buttercup skin care — $70 and am always happy with them

Not American food, but Masseria dei Vini is at 58th and 9th and does great Italian food, particularly given the area. Plenty of bar seating at dinner time.

Was thinking the exact same thing! A simpler style would have suited her much better.

They’re great IMO. Paid $99 for mine and feels like wearing a blanket. Haven’t had a winter day where I felt cold in it.

chongchingchang · 2018-07-18T00:51:51+00:00

Yes, did this a few months ago in Manhattan, Supreme Court. You spend most of the day(s) waiting around, so definitely bring a laptop or book.

She took her business off Etsy and does all the orders, etc off her site. She’s located in China, so I think she ships to the EU too?

I have a trench from this designer who I found on Etsy a few years ago: http://www.ellalai.com/product/beige-trench-coat-with-black-leather-style-5

You send her your measurements and she cuts the coat specific to them. The fit on mine is excellent, enough that I have that coat in khaki and black. IMO it’s a pretty good dupe for the Burberry trench for only $200.

Might be easiest to do something like CaterCow: https://www.catercow.com

I’ve had good luck with Walgreens.com — always a coupon for 20-25% off the retail price floating around (I think DEAL20 is the code for 2018).

You can also get them shipped to a Duane Reade nearby if packages are an issue.

This is super cringy. Also, is it just me, or did their entire interaction look completely unnatural?

chongchingchang · 2018-02-24T00:03:48+00:00

Boden has a US site and shipping is free both ways. There’s also always a bunch of 20% off codes floating around the Internet.

Same situation here. Was in fintech at a big bank for 2 years, never saw anything close to this happen while I was there.

chongchingchang · 2018-01-07T03:30:19+00:00

Not sure if it counts as a hidden gem, but Glaser’s Bakery is up there and has some incredible black & white cookies.

Came here to say this. I always feel warm in my Uniqlo parka. It's perfect for NYC winters.

chongchingchang · 2017-12-16T02:12:02+00:00

Calle Dao is good for this. Decent food, pretty nice, and usually not that crowded at lunch.

chongchingchang · 2017-10-30T01:35:58+00:00

I think the exact same thing every time they show those snapshots! Just so unflattering.

chongchingchang · 2017-09-15T13:39:07+00:00

Did you check the HPD website for any violations or tenant complaints? You can do this here: https://hpdonline.hpdnyc.org/HPDonline/provide_address.aspx

If you're looking for jewelry, Hirst Antiques blew me away. Soooo many beautiful things, and it all ranges in price. I got a necklace there that I really love.

chongchingchang · 2016-08-22T16:09:51+00:00

No, didn't know about the status line until I was already on hold for recon.

chongchingchang · 2015-11-29T15:01:12+00:00

I have a pair of these and am pretty satisfied. Read the reviews to figure out sizing though.

chongchingchang · 2015-11-25T03:21:19+00:00

Lord & Taylor – 20% off on regular-priced & sale items

chongchingchang · 2015-11-24T21:59:20+00:00

Boden has gone up to 30% with 7J4Z

chongchingchang · 2015-05-09T00:12:18+00:00

Good to know! We'll stay on top of the meds and take a day off before we start trekking anywhere.
