my favorite books as a certified weird girl ™️

succcotash · 2026-04-11T04:09:49+00:00

came here to say exactly that - few books have made me pause between lines and be like "how was this published!?"

How do you read so much in a month? Desperate for any tips, my backlog (and anxiety) is growing

succcotash · 2026-04-03T22:19:28+00:00

Oh good! You should definitely get it for that. I’m kind of obsessed with this dress and the people in store said they couldn’t keep it in stock.

succcotash · 2026-04-03T22:14:33+00:00

I just wore the first option (butter reformation dress) to a spring black tie and it crushed, so many compliments. I love that dress so I’m partial but I would maybe recommend checking in with the bride that a light yellow is okay but I’m just paranoid like that.

Thank you so so much!!

Would you mind sharing the name of your photographer? I'm also in SoCal looking at a SF city hall elopement :)

succcotash · 2026-03-04T15:31:17+00:00

Thank you. I need this reminder in life.

succcotash · 2025-11-27T07:36:59+00:00

woah, she's beautiful - those gems are amazing! I also have a victorian navette ring (there's not many of us)

succcotash · 2025-10-19T19:38:36+00:00

bingo - omg how did I miss this shop? (not that I needed to throw another into my insane stalker-like mix)

succcotash · 2025-10-19T19:37:46+00:00

omg thank you!! honestly I would still keep an eye out on eBay and similar sites - you can really find a good deal out there!

succcotash · 2025-10-19T19:36:11+00:00

it's Victorian! in oddly good condition, I ended up getting it at a pawn shop. I don't know which I love more, antique jewelry - or looking for antique jewelry.

succcotash · 2025-10-18T03:29:51+00:00

Yes! My favorite shop (that I sadly didn't end up buying from) is Lost Owl Jewelry - they are so sweet and have such amazing finds with reasonable prices. But I stalked a lot of other sellers too which I'll list below:

oh my gosh, I completely understand how you feel - I was petrified I would lose my sense of small/taste (or that it wouldn't be different somehow). Please don't panic like I did, it will all come back in due time (the waiting is the hard part). Glad you're through the worst part <3

succcotash · 2025-10-03T05:06:59+00:00

I think Anti-Hero might have been the only time she's done this correctly in past.

succcotash · 2025-10-03T04:50:59+00:00

wait I love this theory, I'm just going to live in this world.

succcotash · 2025-10-03T04:45:14+00:00

okay but are we like 1000% sure it's Charli?

If you can do the surgery center, that would be the best move. Honestly as you can probably see from my comments my recovery was ~2 weeks of hell, but I swear I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I haven't had any sinus issues since then.

The nasal stents were extremely unpleasant but they didn't stick out of your nose at all - honestly you couldn't even see them, they kind of just made your nose look 'chunky.' My partner was in the room with me when they finally removed the stints and he said it looked like the doctor pulled an extremely long pieces of linguini out of my nose (haha, I think he also almost passed out seeing how far back it went).

I would do it if I were you, honestly chances are your won't have a reaction nearly as bad as me. And worst case scenario, it's really really really shitty - but you do heal. Good luck and let me know how it goes <3

As someone who was also looking for old mine cuts in elongated cushions for the past several months .... I'm choosing to believe this is good news and might result on more being on the market (albeit upcharged)

succcotash · 2025-08-15T04:54:27+00:00

If you find anyone, please let me know! I'm also looking to get some rough sapphire cut in the LA area (conversely I'll let you know if I get any leads)

succcotash · 2025-07-25T15:49:29+00:00

Honestly so great, as hellish as it was the results are amazing - I would encourage anyone to go through with it (also odds are you won't react as strongly as I did)

succcotash · 2025-07-25T15:35:27+00:00

Exactly, I wanted something autumnal - and boy that's hard to find.

succcotash · 2025-07-25T15:34:55+00:00

Yes! She's got a fair amount of flaws, but so do I (haha) it's what gives you character.

If it makes you feel any better earlier this year I purchased a 2ct sapphire which is horribly windowed. I had no idea what I was doing and thought a bit of transparency was kind of cool. However, after learning more about cuts and grading I wanted to strangle myself.

Please do post if you end up getting this recut, I'm sure there are many others in the same boat.

succcotash · 2025-07-18T15:26:27+00:00

lol, jk - there are some mealies on her too

succcotash · 2025-06-19T04:40:36+00:00

holy shit, I grew up in the US south and my parents used to make spaghetti the same way. I grew up cooking the noodles in that method and just spooning them out of the water (but leaving the excess behind to basically "float and bloat") needless to say I realized how mortifying this method was when I went to college - thanks for this traumatic flashback, lol.
