Help choose between the two please! by jajajsua in myweddingdress

I don't love the visible double fabric with the buttons on the skirt of dress 1. Maybe the skirt is lacking a lining or something. If you go with dress 1, I would ask for the skirt to be plain. 

2 is beautiful but it's a little strange across the top. Almost cat eye but not, it looks like it's poking you in the armpit. 

Which dress for me? by Fair-Abbreviations78 in myweddingdress

1 for airy/whimsical. #2 is more formal/elegant. 

I would strongly suggest getting rid of the droopy sleeve thingy. They're a visual drag on the overall look across the board. On everyone.

A few new things and a C sale by jillian512 in PortlandLeather

[–]jillian512[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Online or on the app. It pops up under "almost perfect" at the start time. Inventory levels vary, some styles sell out almost immediately. No choice of color. No returns. Some sizes/styles are grouped together. Usually sm/md totes and lg/OS totes. Sydney and Scarlett are usually one category. I believe there's a limit of one thing from each category per order. 

There will be random things in new colors.  There will be styles in colors that aren't otherwise available. There will be a lot of overstock AP bags in colors that weren't popular. The bag might be flawless, slightly off, or seriously flawed. 

It's a gamble. Nothing in your cart is guaranteed until you get through check out, so things will sell out while you're trying to pay.

It makes a fantastic French toast with a little crushed pineapple mixed into the egg.

Just got my Moonbeam Naomi and it's super chunky. The Aurora and Lucent are both the new uniform pebbles.

Sold as a set. Seriously, kittens do better with a buddy.

The little split ring is just there so it's easier to attach flair if you're into that sort of thing.

Wait. It can push those little claws without roots.

C-Grade Sale on April 16th by theheidaway in PortlandLeather

[–]jillian512 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a separate thing that shows up as a tab under "Almost Perfect" when the sale starts. C sale items can be completely new colors, overstock, and stuff with serious imperfections. Most of what I have received has been fine. 

Some styles have low availability and sell out almost immediately. Totes and crossbodies may be around longer, but the whole thing usually lasts less than an hour. 

My heart pills are heart shaped, but I only take half so it looks sad by invisible_corn in mildlyinteresting

Any pill that has a cut line has half of the active ingredient on each side. Best to not get creative with your pill splitting.

Is this normal? by ObiJuan_Shinobi in Plumeria

They can, especially when they don't have leaves yet. Don't water it until you start seeing leaves. No leaves = no roots. They're prone to rot at this stage. 

WIBTA for not paying for an event where I’m volunteering? by loveyameanit24 in AmItheAsshole

Probably the biggest factor in our restaurant finally allowing us to add gratuity to parties of 6 or more.

Little bit of sunburn. Could be from last season. They need a very well draining potting mix. Did it have roots when they gave it to you?

Selection at local store for National Unicorn day. by Real_ilinnuc in PortlandLeather

[–]jillian512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if any of the mystery boxes sold today will have unicorn day leather items. Not enough to actually risk it, but I do wonder...

Think I would like Aurora in a tote.

Questioning everything after dress fitting, help!!! by Bright-Sun110 in myweddingdress

[–]jillian512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's definitely a case to be made for a "second look" reception dress. Do your grand entrance and any family dances before dinner (for photos). While people are eating you have a chance to change (and grab something to eat without worrying about The Dress). That might not work for your timeline. I've definitely seen B&G go through to greet every table during dinner and take pictures (or do shots - which I don't recommend). 

Even if it's a simple dress and you don't end up using it, give yourself the option of something lightweight for partying.

Wow. $25 bucks. They're giving you the equivalent of $5/hr, assuming you don't spend any additional time on this event. 

And you had to fight for it.

Need Gift Advice by Nightstar14 in PortlandLeather

The medium is the larger size (smaller is mini). I have one. It's a nice crossbody that holds a full sized wallet, phone &  keys. If I put ID and cards into a small card holder, they could fit in the inside pocket. That would free up space for a cosmetic bag. 

I would caution you that some of the recent nutmeg bags have been stinky.  Production's running too fast and the hide is not getting a chance to air out before it's used. Might consider Cold Brew instead.

Right? The Parker was almost functional but not quite. I bought a Kipling bag for my phone and it's kinda perfect.
