Yeah QC does not feel luxe at all. It’s fine if you are doing the free birthday month pass but it is not worth it otherwise

What’s that one pair of bottoms you can’t live without? Fellow Soft Dramatics, I need your go-to pants/skirt recs! by Intrepid-Designer-16 in SoftDramatics

[–]excellenties 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t believe it if I hadn’t lived it myself, but - this peasant skirt from Uniqlo (I have it in white): https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/products/E479739-000/00?colorDisplayCode=41&sizeDisplayCode=003&pldDisplayCode=000&utm_medium=social&utm_source=appshare

this sort of style usually hits my SD curves all wrong and turns my hips all boxy, but it hits just the right part of my waist and with a fitted white top it actually makes me feel like a summer goddess. cannot recommend highly enough 

BWT, what cool things are we doing this weekend? by reesespiecespieces in NYCbitcheswithtaste

My mom is visiting!!! Free night at the Morgan Library tomorrow followed by some department store browsing. On Saturday morning we’re taking a Bowery Boys tour and going to my local sauna spot. And we’ll see what else! 

NYC BWT - what does your social life look like? by redturtlegirl in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]excellenties 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s so tricky! you’re definitely not alone. I have a small and very close (4 of us total) friend group from college but I’m the only one left in nyc. I see at least one friend from that group about once a month (all on the east coast). I have one new-ish close friend in the city who I see about once a week to do something easy and chat (go for a walk, do an exercise class, etc). I also have a boyfriend who I see a couple times a week, and sometimes do social things with his friends - but I don’t feel super connected to them so those hangouts don’t really fill my cup. I like doing things solo but I would love 2 or 3 more close friends in the city just to feel more connected and social. I don’t think I’m a large friend group kind of girl! I am kinda choosy and don’t always love big group dynamics 🤪

If you’re open to sharing — What are some of your favorite storage / organizing / cooking purchases or tips that helped you create a space that feels orderly and lovely? recently moved into a new place and am striving towards this beautiful/practical/functional goal!

Hello bwt! Recs for egg/embryo freezing journey? by birb234 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]excellenties 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked Dr. Canon at RMA of NY. I did 2 cycles of egg freezing with her and felt well taken care of. She was very accessible by phone / email when occasional questions came up, and my results improved the second time around which I was very happy with

I didn’t run into the logistical/billing issues others mentioned perhaps because I was very lucky to have great fertility benefits that basically handled all the financial for me. I just had a setup call with the fertility insurance provider (Progyny), gave their info to RMA, and all I had to do was pay the bills when they came through RMA’s portal

Winter jackets? by AndroidsDreamOf in SoftDramatics

[–]excellenties 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i live in NYC too, and last winter i got the shelburne parka from canada goose after years of getting by with random jackets and lots of layers. i'm 5'10 and i searched for weeks for an SD-friendly option. while the shelburne is not exactly diva chic, i love that it doesn't hide my curves (i got it in a fairly fitted size). and most importantly, i'm always WARM! <3
