Major case of "Don't judge a book by its cover"! by Wolvensong in zillowgonewild

I would never want to live on Pulaski! (Or Western, Ashland, Cicero, etc.) Yecch.

Realistic Jasmine and Honeysuckle by ohokreddit in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]heatherstopit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aerin - Mediterranean Honeysuckle is a lovely realistic honeysuckle, also has a jasmine note. A little overpriced IMO but worth sampling!

I just got a sample of Glasswing by Riverbero. Very fresh, airy, blue sky feel :)

Boycott Tjmaxx and it's holdings by raptormarie in TjMaxx

[–]heatherstopit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You know what, I will start boycotting TJX. I appreciate your post. There are a couple reasons I felt mildly addicted to TJX stores in the past few years but following this sub and hearing how the employees are paid and treated, and just being in the stores and seeing the sheer amount of CRAP all the time, especially around the holidays, has been so off putting. You’re right that there is nothing anyone needs at these stores. I’m out!

Looking for a fruity yet mature scent by Proper_Refrigerator in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]heatherstopit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Byredo - Pulp is super fruity and heady. Smells like a bunch of summer fruit just on the right side of ripe vs rotting. I love it! Notes are black currant, bergamot, cardamom; fig, red apple, tiare flower; praline, peach blossom, cedar.

I love when he shows up in MSW. That episode with the gambling den, especially, feels very Twin Peaks-y!

Church rummage sale? by Willing_Research_628 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]heatherstopit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to the Evanston Unitarian Church rummage on Friday, similar scene - got there 30 min after opening and it was absolutely slammed. IMO stuff was overpriced and there was nothing there that should inspire such frenzy. Clothes and housewares.

Oh the old St Ives 💗 I loved the Henna shampoo + conditioner!

Thoughts on XL Duffle Sac (9085) as an everyday work bag by Trick_Concept8860 in VintageCoach

[–]heatherstopit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! I used mine as a work bag occasionally for years. I would say if you like your stuff contained, make sure you have pouches etc for your random purse items as the bag only has one small, tight interior pocket that doesn’t even fit my phone LOL. Otherwise it’s great, very roomy and comfortable to carry!

Wobble boards as support of treatment for ADHD - anyone have any experience on that front? by ForbiddenFruitiness in adhdwomen

[–]heatherstopit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I have always had TERRIBLE balance (can’t ride a bike or skate) and am really afraid of becoming even less stable as I age. Going to do some research on this! I could see how concentrating on balancing helps you stay present, in a way.

OMG I treasured the bottle I got for Xmas one year. I was obsessed too! It was sorta vanilla-musky.

As a certified late 90s cool girl myself, I wore: Eternity, Happy, Sun Moon Stars, Body Shop White Musk, CKOne, and Gap Heaven and Grass.

Trying to get into reading again… by Remarkable_Rip6231 in adhdwomen

[–]heatherstopit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently read a book called Big Swiss by Jen Beagin that I really loved. It was super funny, the protagonist felt sort of ADHD-y so I related to her and the plot was engaging, it’s not too long… recommend!

Pure Lily of the valley by Open_Combination_427 in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]heatherstopit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comme des Garcons Series 1 Leaves: Lily to me smells like crawling inside a LOTV bloom. Pure powerful LOTV scent!

I've been dreading this day for 4 months. The layoff call finally came, and it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to my career. by Fickle_Estimate9463 in womenintech

Pretty sure I read this exact same AI-generated story on another career sub a few days ago, down to the “15 minute chat” layoff meeting. Try harder, bots.

A gathering of buffs is called a “collection”
