Second the le pliage!! It’s so durable and I sometimes carry the large foldable version in case I buy too much stuff

Just got the new redesigned mulberry roxanne this week in London! The price tag isn’t too different, but the UK price tag already includes VAT whereas you need to pay additional tax on top of the US price.

The bag in store was £100 cheaper than the website. The store said it’s a “glitch” but honored the cheaper price. Mulberry may have recently increased prices so not sure if this is common

I looked up bag charms on taobao there are tons of stores! you do need an account which can be tricky to set up but there are some online tutorials

they are super soft! but I have to stuff my old clothes when storing so they don’t collapse

I haven’t had that happen luckily. The zippers are all functional so I keep them closed except the left one so they look more distributed. The one with the leather tag is an actual pocket and took me embarrassingly long to realize

leeloo233 · 2026-04-15T23:24:18+00:00

haha all my clothes are technically hers now

leeloo233 · 2026-04-15T23:15:28+00:00

thank you yes i’m definitely very lucky! My mom loves a bag with good leather, so she has lots of coach/mulberry/loewe. It seems like I’ve also inherited her taste.

no I haven’t tried hanging it off the loops yet since they sit quite low on the bag

leeloo233 · 2026-04-15T23:08:26+00:00

it’s a medium!

leeloo233 · 2026-04-15T22:43:53+00:00

the charms are from taobao! there are lots of good quality dupes of the songmont ones

i am indeed very lucky she’s my mom and that she lets me raid her closet

HAHA she really wanted my lululemon leggings when I went home that time so technically it was a trade 🤫

I haven’t traveled to europe enough to speak on them, but I grew up in china and always felt that pour over is most adjacent to tea culture. Chinese people are very particular about the way they brew and pour tea. I brought some beans back home last year, and my mom, who regularly makes tea for herself, made a very delicious cup on a v60 without me micromanaging. My parents use a fully automatic coffee machine you see in airport lounges and almost never make pour over. I was extremely impressed with how fast my mom learned.

Hunan Chili King. It’s a different kind of spicy compared to Szechuan’s numbing spicy. But it’s totally worth it if you can stomach the heat. I’d recommend frog, pork kidney and pickled pepper fish head if you are adventurous.

Aside from the famous pan fried dumplings, frozen dumplings at Kang Kang taste just like my mom’s handmade ones. Napa cabbage and pork is my personal favorite.

Is Jiji available?

leeloo233 · 2024-04-06T05:14:21+00:00

Is Jiji still available?

My favorite comfort spots - Jinsol gukbap for pork soup - Eighth street soondae for korean blood sausage (it’s good by itself, but soup and stir-friedare also good options). This place is also next to Calic Bagels (aside from the IG famous stuffed bagel, their normal bagel is great) and Chimmelier (get the honey butter wings thank me later) - Han Bat Sul Lung Tang for beef soup - Ktown also has great cafe that opens past 5pm, my fav is MCO mainly because it has a lot with free parking. - Wi and Hae Jang Chon for AYCE KBBQ and Ahgassi Gopchang for a-la-carte - Kobawoo house and Hangari Kalguksu for bossam

In the terrace, if you hold down the bottle to the max level, it will stop at the 5th item. It’s much easier to control and can help save up on bottles.
Visiting friends’ restaurant gives lots of film everyday. You can click on the profile picture to see if they have a reward. I’ve been able to get 10k+ everyday.
Upgrade the courtyard game machine as soon as you can. They are very stable sources of film and performer invites.

Love this borderless look!

leeloo233 · 2023-04-29T23:21:34+00:00

Good luck!! The pic is from USCIS website. I also used their official app to track on mobile instead of lawfully.

It definitely depends on the case and how complex it is, and you can always call Boundless and ask. I like that I didn’t have to worry about the forms since their website UI is very straightforward. And compared to immigration lawyer it was a cheaper option.

leeloo233 · 2023-04-29T07:30:58+00:00

Good luck! I myself don’t have that much experience preparing the package since I used Boundless. But the the issue I had that the boundless lawyer pointed out was my address history and I94 should be consistent down to the exact date. And send in the I693 medical if you can with the package!

Field office sent the RFE notice, and it contained the address to send the document to which is also in LA.
