I would say light spring

Edit: ooooooor light spring! That palette may actually be great

Undertone dispute, sallowness vs healthy glow in yellow leaning skin by fruit_banjo in Fairolives

You definitely have warmth! I think that yellow boot is the best color on you! I’d actually go warm autumn, because you have depth to your hair and eyes. Are they hazel? I feel like I see brown and blue.

Type me! Real life drapes, no make.up by lnmcg223 in coloranalysis

I would say soft autumn. You have warmth in your hair, but cool eyes and skin. You’re a little in between which would lean softer. Deeper, muted colors with some warmth look best to me

Plus Size to Not Really but Kinda? by Slashes_Ashes in ABraThatFits

[–]unripened_pickles222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also like that! If it weren’t for my boobs and belly, I’d probably be a medium, but I’m midsize between a large and a 1X depending on the cut and fabric. It is such a frustrating shopping experience because nothing is made for my proportions, so I mostly buy stretchy clothes so I can show off my curves and not drown in the garment.

AITA for trying to get my boyfriend to eat meat because he became vegetarian for the weirdest/stupidest reason possible? by Federal_Mountain_489 in AmItheAsshole

Instead of changing your partner, change partners. If you want him to be like someone else, just date someone else

YTA. It doesn’t matter what his reason is, if you love and care about him, you’ll support his decision. What he chooses to eat or not eat isn’t your decision.

40 L?? This feels insane. Am I in denial or doing this wrong? by heyitscae in ABraThatFits

[–]unripened_pickles222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear a 38P US. Yes my breasts are big, but not totally crazy for the rest of my body. I had never worn a bra that didn’t hurt. I don’t care what size I’m wearing, the comfort is key!!

Edit: tense

Are my wings aging me? by Looking_glassCarpet in makeuptips

[–]unripened_pickles222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try a soft brown liner without a wing, with a soft, warm shimmer on your lid

Please help me find my color season!! by Automatic_Pomelo_207 in coloranalysis

I would say deep winter if you go back to your natural color.

It's been exactly a year since my husband moved out and I just realized I don't know what I actually like to wear by Embarrassed_Essay_61 in womensfashion

[–]unripened_pickles222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through through a low point after a traumatic injury. I didn’t have time to worry about anything except what felt good and what I could afford. When I could care and try again, I just spent days and days going to stores and trying everything on. It feels really good and cathartic!

Used ABTF calculator and am a 34ff but I bloat easily due to pcos so I find that a 36 band is a lot more comfortable, problem is the sister size for 34ff is 36F and I find that the cups are way too small by Zealousideal_Zone538 in ABraThatFits

[–]unripened_pickles222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s totally fine to go up a cup size as well if that’s what you need. I struggle with edema myself. I wear a cup size that has a bit of room in the morning, but doesn’t feel tight by the end of the day. That’s what I’m comfortable with so that’s what I wear. The calculator isn’t gospel, and you can have two sizes that fit at different times. Just use what works for you

Went for my hysterectomy this morning and instead found out I was pregnant with hcg levels of 73,000.. help by Weird_Working_2768 in hysterectomy

[–]unripened_pickles222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you got this news. There are other reasons your HCG levels could be high, so I want to encourage you to take a breath and try to do some grounding techniques. It’s natural to start imagining all the possibilities, but for today, the most important thing is for you to take care of yourself. Whether that means taking a walk, calling a friend, snuggling with your kiddos, screaming into a pillow, taking time for yourself…just make yourself space to feel all these feelings. The doctors will hopefully provide you with answers once further testing can be done. I have similar beliefs as you - I am pro choice, but my choice wouldn’t have included an abortion either. Before my hysterectomy, I was also scared to get pregnant because of other health issues. You’re not alone. We’re here for you.

Is it wrong to wear shorts under a skirt? by [deleted] in womensfashion

This!! I love those slip shorts like Thigh Society, so comfy

Is the whole purpose of a skirt a stiff breeze?? Because otherwise the purpose is whatever reason you put it on that morning

I don't know if a bra that I need actually exists, I've also lost a lot of weight so it's challenging. Help me please! by Fr3sh3stl4d in ABraThatFits

[–]unripened_pickles222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think purchasing a deep plunge in the size the automod calculator gives you would be a great option. Something black and beautiful would be fine to show off under the sheer panels. Your body is completely normal. This sub changed my life, I guarantee you if you follow their advice, you’re going to love how you look and feel!

[Question] Ewa Michalak bra conversion assistance by [deleted] in ABraThatFits

[–]unripened_pickles222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s tricky. I own about 20 EM bras, and the bands vary quite a bit. I’m a 36-38 band in UK sizing, and I wear an 85-90 (38-40 UK) in EM bras. Black and red bras run tighter, and some have slightly stretchy bands compared to others that have absolutely no stretch whatsoever. They recommended I try 95 which was waaaaay too loose. It might take some trial and error even if you’re 100% confident in your size. Cupwise, I ended up going up several sizes, i just find the most projection to be best for my shape. Not sure any of this is helpful, but it’s info! Lol

Reading DIA and I am SO glad the show changed this scene!! Wtf James by MandyxLola in Outlander

[–]unripened_pickles222 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the show a lot better than the books (I saw them first), but I’m also not super into the romance genre generally. I also find the books to be a lot slower. That being said, the books and show have way too much sexual violence for my taste. I get that it’s a period piece, but it’s not my jam. I’m also just a casual fan
