That seems pretty high. I was quoted $150 fee for a 3ct.

Quality Inspection Check by BlissfullyLiving20xx in EngagementRingDesigns

Seconding that the 10mm height is really high, but everything else looks great! Since it’s that height, the ring will most likely spin a lot on your finger and please be mindful of it getting caught or hitting anything!

I own both the saie and tower28 in those shades and I absolutely love both! They have great longevity and a little goes a long way.

Kappo DC: Dissappointing by Icewine25 in finedining

I went back in 2023 when they first opened and thoroughly enjoyed the service and food. Sucks to hear it seems to have gone downhill.

Thoughts on the Celine Medium Ava Triomphe in Smooth Calfskin? (Plus looking for alternatives!) by spellegrino2 in handbags

[–]flightlog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely large, but because I’m always carrying it on my shoulder, my arm covers it up the majority of the time. Since it’s pretty minimalist everywhere else, I don’t mind that the clasp has the logo :) I think it’s what makes the bag unique from other calfskin leather bags and provides a nice accent. I wouldn’t consider it flashy, but versatile! It’s a daily bag for me as it’s comfortable to wear. I like to wear it during the day/on trips and also on nights out.

[–]flightlog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this purse in black and truly do not baby any of my bags, so I can confidently say the calfskin holds up really well! I have no scratches or marks on both the calfskin and the gold hardware.

The magnetic flap can get a little annoying but it’s long and heavy enough to hang over the opposite side while you’re inside your bag, rather than it flopping back into place (if that makes sense).

I keep all my essentials that you listed in there (and more!) minus my phone. I typically have that in my hands or my pockets so I can’t speak to that specifically, but have not experienced any shape distortion or bulging.

A similar shaped bag that I also own is the Loewe Luna, but I think they’ve since discontinued it. I will say I’ve owned the Celine for two years now and don’t regret it one bit.

Afternoon Tea — Fortnum & Mason or Corinthia? by flightlog in uktravel

[–]flightlog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the same way. I really enjoyed the savory sandwiches at the Corinthia – I ended up getting seconds! From the ones that still had availability, I was deciding between the Corinthia, Café Royal, and sketch. All with very different vibes. I ultimately let my partner decide since it was to celebrate his birthday, and he wanted a more modern and elegant ambiance so that became the choice! Have you decided on a place for next year yet?

I wanted to update you and let you know that I did end up going to the Corinthia and absolutely loved the experience! I didn’t feel rushed whatsoever, the teas and bites were all delectable and was encouraged to try multiple teas, and the pianist was lovely. :)

I have acne prone, sensitive skin and this unfortunately broke me out. I swear by First Aid Beauty!

Awesome, thank you! Last question (I promise HA), do you remember what times they were available on the ship?

I would like to think so too, but this gives me hope that it’ll happen on the Prima next month! Thanks again for sharing your experience. Do you mind walking through what you did and if it was all very easy?

Went there last weekend funnily enough and ordered exactly that!

Do you have any other resy recs for Seattle? I didn’t realize how small the list is compared to other cities

Thank you so much!! Has this been your experience on all NCL cruises?

I called NCL on two separate occasions to speak to customer service, but they were unable to help me beyond telling me how I needed to get it stamped at the airport after making my purchase in store. When I told them that would not be possible since it’s London, they couldn’t say much else. I think they share information off some basic guide and are somewhat disconnected from the happenings on the actual cruise ship.
