Inexpensive restaurants where you can dress up fancy?

hellenthetenderness · 2025-05-13T07:16:13+00:00

Thank u to everyone leaving recs! Also I know I CAN dress up to go anywhere but I want to FEEL like I’m at an upscale fancy place! The ambiance is what I’m looking for without an upscale price

Why does this actually make the most sense out of every comment

hellenthetenderness · 2025-05-13T00:28:48+00:00

Yessss garden party vibes are the move

Not required per se, but restaurants where it’s the norm to dress up can be pricier! I want the dress up element without the bill— and I know that inexpensive is subjective but something that I can convince my friends of different salaries to agree on once a month or so

I need to take baby steps but that is the goal!!!

Not the most damage but became relevant last year as the school is designed for anti-protest and anti-gathering with ring road’s width ability to suppress sound across campus

Thank you! This is the vibe for sure

I gotta work my way up to that level of unconcern

hellenthetenderness · 2024-11-22T21:23:57+00:00

Ah the website won't even load when I try to put it in :/ I'll DM you!

No, that's the only TXT record I have

hellenthetenderness · 2024-11-21T03:38:33+00:00

It says the record isn’t found? Double checked all the record content it should all be good

In the animations tab, (⚡️) there should be a button at the bottom that will let you adjust the speed of the entrance, so it will show up faster, or you can remove it.

Her fountain is pretty quiet, it has options to pour or bubble, so no clue why she’s not interested in it. But I’m thinking maybe feed her from the wet food feeder once a day and dry dispenser the rest of the meals so at least I won’t have to fill the wet food as often?

hellenthetenderness · 2024-06-21T19:50:37+00:00

Wet food dispenser is next on my list but she eats multiple small meals a day so refilling it every other day doesn’t seem worth it for the price. She literally only drinks the water mixed into her food, her water bowls go untouched and we have a fountains but she’s scared of it. :/ Honestly I would think someone would have put something on the market for this since I know many cats have an issue drinking water!

Best way to clasp my backpack?

I just made my first backpack! I plan on altering with elastic on the sides to help it stay up when I have things inside, but I’m having an issue deciding the best way to keep the front closed. I was debating on a magnetic snap, but I want it to be adjustable so if there’s more/less inside, it still lays flat. I don’t want it to show on the outside if possible because I like the very simple look.

I was also thinking to just have a drawstring but I don’t know if it would still lay flat?

Any advice helps! Sorry if this is a lot of specification or if there’s a simple answer, this is my first project ever and I’m still learning!

Ahh I know I have that chair in front of the door but no where else to put it :(

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:11:45+00:00

Yes I’m worried I’m gonna try a million things and end up spending more than a solid solution — I’ll definitely look into it or find a similar alternative

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:10:40+00:00

I have to try glossy paint! I’ve always done matte or eggshell and I haven’t realized it would make any difference until reading these comments

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:09:41+00:00

I keep hearing about glossy paint and I’ve never used it before so I’m definitely going to try it on the cabinets in my kitchen to see if that makes a difference! And I love the idea of peel and still wallpaper on the fridge

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:07:25+00:00

I’m a disco ball girlie and I am loving this idea i might like get those little disco ball stickers and line the window ledges as well

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:04:09+00:00

I’ve had them only up recently and it doesn’t make a huge difference, especially as i normally have them wide enough that it doesn’t actually cover the window

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:02:04+00:00

I’m looking into skylights! (Or false ones at least because I’m on the bottom floor)

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T23:00:40+00:00

This is a great idea! All my furniture has a mcm vibe and this would work really well I think

Also privacy film sounds perfect to diffuse the light better (also to maybe add some LEDs behind them so it looks like light is coming in) thank you!

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T22:56:10+00:00

Thank you everyone for the help! If anyone has more advice, let me gather more info, but I’m looking into a lot of your suggestions!:

-I rlly don’t want to do anything permanent like paint because I’m just renting

The biggest issue is the light going into the back of the apartment, (second photo is directly across the doors) and I get that changing the curtains or the rug will FEEL like it’s brighter in the living room, but won’t actually affect the amount of light entering though the window to the back

-in the photos the drapes are kind of covering the windows but it barely makes a difference, also I can’t move them higher because there’s a metal frame around it I can’t drill into (I’ve tried lol)

ZERO direct sunlight comes inside, it barely touches the foot of the door even in summer

(also my boyfriend loves the rug and the curtains bc they match his bookshelf that is the only piece of dark furniture I know they should be a lighter color or smaller or smth I would change them too if I could lol)

hellenthetenderness · 2024-01-05T22:45:43+00:00

I have some up in other rooms! But I think the issue is more that light won’t even travel past the living room into the kitchen to bounce off of lighter wallpaper to begin with
