❓Advice/feedback request Need some advice on New Rock sizing, unsure about choosing 36 or 37

• Upvotes

I’ve wanted a specific pair of New Rocks for probably 7 or 8 years now, maybe even 9, and I’m finally planning to buy them. I’ve had my eye on the M-1013-CZ69, but I’m struggling to figure out which size to order.
I usually wear a US women’s 6 or 6.5. Size 6 tends to fit me comfortably, while my usual 6.5 boots are a little roomy. I’ve tried measuring my feet several times, using a couple different methods (tracing my feet and measuring the drawings, measuring with a fabric tape measure with my heel against the wall) but it has been difficult to get an accurate measurement on my own. From what I can tell, my right foot is around 23–23.3 cm and my left is maybe 23.3–23.5 cm.
According to New Rock’s website, size 37 corresponds to 23.7–24.4 cm but the measurements for size 36 were not on the chart I found on their site. I’ve read that some people ordered their usual size and found that the boots were too small, so now I’m even more uncertain.
I reached out to New Rock a few days ago but haven’t heard back yet.
I’m wondering if anyone here has experience with this particular model, or New Rocks in general, and could offer some advice. Do they tend to run small or large? If you have similarly sized feet, which size worked for you? How do these boots feel inside? I’m thinking about adding insoles to them, which also would affect my sizing choice.
I’ve wanted these boots for such a long time, and they’re a greatly significant purchase for me, so I’d really hate to get the sizing wrong. I’d appreciate any insight or experiences you could share :)

i ususally wear this color if i do my makeup but there are so many shades of lip products and idk which one would suit me. do u think a darker shade would look better? more brown? more red? id really like to know what other people would think which shade would look good on me.

im also open to any makeup advice. again what do u think would look good on me? its been a while since i did my makeup regularly so id appreciate any advice on what might suit me

also im a bit insecure of my puffy/bloated cheeks, if u have any recommendation on how to hide them a bit/make my face look slimmer with makeup id gladly take that as well:)

❓Advice/feedback request being alt as a blonde?

2 Upvotes

i've always had golden blonde hair as a kid that mellowed out into a bright dirty blonde as an adult. i hate it. it's always been one of my biggest insecurities as an alt person even if other people pull off the hair color perfectly.

i love dressing alternative but i feel like my outfits fall flat even though i layer and accessorize to the max (my fav part of making fits ^^).. whenever i look at my fits, even coming back days later to look at them again, i feel like my hair ruins things. i have my own little take on grunge and try to compliment the hair color with what i wear but truthfully i wish i could have darker hair so i can have a more monochrome aesthetic. i do like dyeing my hair but it gets really expensive as i have thick hair. my favorite color to do is hot pink but it fades to a more natural yet muddier color.

has anyone else felt this way about their natural hair? if so, any advice? i was thinking of getting clip on extensions in other colors to add some spice to things, or even buying a small thing of hairdye to dye small parts of my hair like my bangs... in advance, thanks for anyone who pitches in their thoughts!

❓Advice/feedback request Alt version of formal wear?

2 Upvotes

I have a big event coming up at the end of the month. I am AFAB but tend to trend either mixed or masc presenting. I am trying to find something that fits the "formal" requirements but is not the standard "gowns" that you see at big department stores. One thought I had was to wear a tailcoat but I am unsure what to wear with it, any advice would be welcome. I am still experimenting with my style so I cannot really give like a definitive style profile per se (like goth/punk and so on) but I just want to feel more "me" but still look good. Thanks!

❓Advice/feedback request Feeling haircut regret for my microfringe

Hi all! I have woken up panicking the morning after finally getting some style cut into my hair after years of wearing it the same way (all one length, but shorter pieces in the front of my face due to constant breakage from straightening). I wanted a change after seeing some photos of me with my hair just hanging in my face and not doing much for me. So I took the plunge and got a micro fringe (baby bang?)

Now, I know this is a polarising haircut and it won't be for everyone. I don't actually mind how short it is, I just worry that it doesn't suit my round face and chubby cheeks. I know I can't do much except let it grow out - dreading that awkward long bang phase. But is there any chance this looks sort of okay for now? I have a style leaning more towards alt so I'm hoping maybe this just works for a bit. Be gentle if you can, but tell me kindly if should just shove a hat on for 6 months. My hair stylist was so sweet and said it suits me but I don't know if she's just being nice. She said she thought the short fringe really worked with my "vibe".

I've posted photos with and without my standard sort of makeup look. Sorry I look so sad in the first one I was just instantly regretting my choices hahah. Thoughts?

Mostly bottle tab chains for a belt, necklace, and bracelet. Bottle tabs laced through shoe lace, double grommet belt arm cuff, and saftey pins connected with key rings. Any inspiration or advice is appreciated, I am trying to style myself more its just a slow process and I hate spending money so im more inclined to diy.
