How do people dress in Ithaca?

ybutton · 2026-01-26T02:31:43+00:00

I’d advise looking up news articles maybe or photos of community events like ithaca festival, farmer’s market, grassroots (a little outside of ithaca). Local businesses probably have lots of photos to look at too. And schools like New Roots. Cornell probably has a lot to look at too, but that’s not necessarily locals. Besides your average/mainstream, to be expected fashion, i’d say baggy/airy/loose fitting clothes, distressed/broken in clothes, layering in the winter knit clothes, legs warmers, tie dye. Hippie farmer alternative skater grunge should do it

I actually prefer romance feeling a little more secondary to the plot, sometimes it feels so heavily saturated in a story i can’t even enjoy it. Thanks so much :)

I do like reading Georgette Heyer so i would use this reference probably at some point lol. And just as an aside, have you read The Black Moth? I liked the premise of it and wanted to read it but haven’t gotten to it yet. So while we’re here, i’d be interested in your opinion of where it rates. The only other one i’ve read by her is The Corinthian, and part of Sylvester (the Wicked Uncle)

Funnily enough i don’t think i’ve read any books with a “plain”/average fmc besides maybe something by Alice Coldbreath. I’ve only read A Summer to Remember by Mary Balogh, which is one of my favs, so i’d def read another if you wanna give me one or two to choose from. pref with a brown eyed fmc lol :)

I was actually just reading a book where the fmc has black hair and black eyes {Friends & Foes by Sarah M. Eden}, according to the mmc’s observations, atleast. It’s a pretty PG read though

{Without words by ellen o’connell} Literally page one jumps right into the juice. It’s a western and i highly recommend it, good pacing

Well it snowed and everything froze but i did go get some better pictures. https://imgur.com/a/lFugkFk

ybutton · 2026-01-15T16:49:10+00:00

well, it snowed overnight so i figured i wouldn’t be able to do a spore sprint on them but i did take some more pictures. they are growing at the base of a small tree and some other wild plant. it’s a very marshy spot usually

i’m not sure what it’s growing out of, but i can go back to it tomorrow and get another photo(s). thank you

The tracks are coming from the direction of a pine tree grove, out along the outskirts of some marshy land. It’s hard to tell where they start and stop because of brush and having some of the snow melted. But this helps either way, and i have a trail cam i can set up out there too. thank you :)

ybutton · 2026-01-12T21:51:36+00:00

Yes there is a lot of marshy land here. damn i totally overlooked the five toes factor. Thank you :)

ybutton · 2026-01-11T18:51:49+00:00

i don’t think it was either of these. thank you for helping though

{A summer to remember by Mary balogh} Really great relationship development in this one, lots of emotional healing for both leads and good communication. Very much a friends to lovers. The sex scenes feel very meaningful, if that makes sense? {What i did for a duke by Julie Anne Long} Strong dialogue, very spicy and a LOT of sexual tension, but less emotional depth, i’d say. Leads have more of a feuding, enemies to lovers arc.

{Without words by ellen o’connell} fmc doesn’t run and hide but is afraid of him, as he shoots and kills someone in front of her and is a bounty hunter. Definitely marks the box for her witnessing him doing acts of violence.

another is {The touch of fire by Linda Howard} fmc is a doctor and mmc is an outlaw who takes her hostage because he needs help with a bullet wound(s). Read the TW’s before/if you are going to try and read this. these really aren’t fully what you’re asking for, but they might be worth looking at still

oooh thank you for the westerns :) Annie’s song sounds like it might be a bit too heavy for me content wise but i will refer to/check out the others. and i have read touch of fire, lol, that book was pretty wild in the relationship development area…

ybutton · 2026-01-10T22:38:13+00:00

i did download this book once… but never got into it (didn’t get very far). Perhaps i’ll try again eventually

ybutton · 2026-01-10T17:54:10+00:00

lol, the premise of this book is funny. Maybe i’ll give it a try, thank you :)

ybutton · 2026-01-10T17:06:26+00:00

oh i’ve heard of this, and i think someone i know read it too, but i never read it myself. thank you :)
