5 december

Ivy awoke suddenly and unexpectedly, bare legs twisted in sodden sheets, with sweat crystallising on her forehead and a sore throat. Her first thought, oddly enough, was relief. If she was ill, then clearly that would explain all her recent issues. It would no doubt make the next few days in court very unpleasant for her, and probably for anyone who had to spend much time in proximity to her, but illness was something that she could understand. It was something that was, by its very nature, beyond her control.

And she didn't mind uncontrollable things being beyond her control. It was losing control over things which used to be within her power that got to her.

Things like her bladder, for instance.

She turned over in bed, groaning softly, and squinted at the clock on her bedside table. Midnight — no, just before, she corrected herself, as the minute hand slipped silently on by a single significant notch of the dial. As most people did in these situations, the barrister made some mental calculations. Supposing that it took her half an hour to strip the bed, put on some washing, clean herself up, find new linen, put it on... That would be twelve thirty, and then allow another half an hour to get back to sleep... And she had to be up at six if she wanted to wash her hair before going to court...

Ivy sighed. It didn't exactly paint a picture of the restful existence that she was sure people suffering illnesses were supposed to lead, but then she'd never signed up for a peaceful life when she came to the criminal Bar, and it would have been optimistic in the extreme for her to have expected one.

As delicately as she could, she untwisted the wet bedding from around her bare legs and set it to one side, wrinkling her nose at the warm dampness. She sat up, brushing her hair back from her face, and turned to get out of bed, facing towards the door — and then she stopped dead.

There was a speck of green in the corner of the room, difficult to make out in the gloom, but definitely familiar, and while Ivy might put the elf's wanderings of the previous day down to illness-induced lack of attention on her own part, she was certain and sure that she hadn't brought the thing up here with her last night.

And then there was a click, and her bedroom door opened, and something walked in.

At first, Ivy couldn't make it out; the hallway light seemed to be on, and the effect of it, backlighting her midnight visitor and coming as a shock after the darkness of her room, was positively dazzling. But gradually, her eyes adjusted, and she was able to make out an outline.

It wasn't an encouraging sight.

The thing — because she couldn't call it a person, not really — was tall; taller than her in heels; taller than anyone she remembered having met in her life. Seven feet, at least, but in the moment merely a looming presence that she couldn't begin to frame in such conventional terms. Its face was shrouded in a dark hood, which Ivy was inwardly rather thankful for, but it was bulky, and hulking, and horrible, and if she squinted into the gloom, she could have sworn that she could pick out the curving shapes of two ramlike horns, sticking awkwardly out from the fabric of the hood and coiling tightly against the creature's head.

Someone screamed, and it took a few seconds and the sharp pain in her throat before Ivy realised that it was her.

"Hush, hush!"

The voice was deep, not as menacing as she had expected, and the shock of it was enough to quiet her as she stared, wide-eyed, at the apparition in her bedroom.

"You look surprised to see me."

Mute still, Ivy nodded.

The creature tutted, shaking its head, and came further into the room, setting down a part of its bulk which Ivy could now see was a sack. This wasn't a Santa sort of sack, however; there was no sort of red velvet and white fur about it. Rather, it was worn and ratty, the sort of thing that might be found lying around in the corners of warehouses, abandoned and forgotten. It was stained with unknowable substances, contained a bundle of something long and thin, and Ivy couldn't quite manage to take her eyes off it. There was some sort of fatal attractions which she didn't think could bode well at all.

"Little creatures like you ought to keep track of these things. Didn't you know the date?"

"It's the fifth." The sentence was short and somewhat blunt, but frankly, she was astonished at herself for being able to get out even so much as that.

"Quite right. The fifth of December."

Somewhat blankly, she looked up at it. Ivy was not the most religious of people, and neither was she a pagan; between Hallowe'en and Christmas, as far as she knew, there was no special date on which strange beings could be expected to appear in your house uninvited.

"I don't understand," she admitted.

"That's what they all say, these days. Fortunately..." The creature seemed to find itself particularly amusing at this point, and interrupted the speech with a long burst of rather sinister chuckling before recovering enough to continue. "Fortunately, ignorance of the lore is no excuse."

And it reached into its sack, and drew out a bundle of long switches. Ivy felt a growing apprehension.

"Now, will you take your punishment like a good girl?"

Numbly, she shook her head, and her visitor seemed deeply disappointed.

"A shame. Well, well, if you won't do this the easy way... You're sure?"

"Don't come near me with those fucking things!"

"If you insist." Slowly, the creature returned the switches to its sack, and Ivy blinked. Was it possible, she wondered, that it would all be over so quickly? Was the way out really that easy? She took a deep breath, preparing to make a break for the hallway, and then — so quickly that she barely saw it move at all, so quickly that it seemed impossible for a creature of such bulk — her visitor was moving towards her, sack in one hand, the other reaching out for her, and she screamed again as the world went black around her.

PROMPT : Mabari. DRAGON AGE: ORIGINS ERA. Words: 1304. Characters: Halva Aeducan & Alistair Theirin.

The first words that Halva Aeducan – redeemed daughter of King Endrin Aeducan and Vanquisher of Urthemiel – uttered upon waking from the days long coma that followed her landing the final blow upon the Archdemon were notably, “Where’s Mya?”

Alistair laughed tearfully as he swept forward, pulled into her arms by relief and relief alone. He tugged the bulk of her all but into his lap and rained kisses over her dark hair, both desperate hands burying themselves against her, as if he sought to pull her into his body. Better there than laying still as a board on a bed in Arl Eamon’s estate, as she had for what felt like an eternity. His body would carry her and keep her safer than anyone ever could.

“Where is Mya?” Halva asked a second time. Peeling herself away from Alistair proved difficult – both due to an unwillingness and also the strength of his embrace – but she did, staring up at him with a hardened brow. “You didn’t answer.”

Alistair glanced around the room. They were utterly alone save for the voices that reached up from the courtyard outside of the window, with only empty chairs, a chamber pot, and a mismanaged wardrobe for company. On a nearby table sat a cluster of half-drunk potions and neatly kept spools of linen bandages – likely remnants from the last time Wynne had visited.

“Well, she’s not here.”

READ THE REST ON AO3.

Top Qualities to Look for in USA-Based Hotel Linen Suppliers

Introduction

The hospitality industry thrives on guest satisfaction, and quality linens play a crucial role in creating memorable stays. Whether it's soft, luxurious sheets or durable, stain-resistant tablecloths, choosing the right hotel linen supplier is essential for maintaining your property’s standards. For hoteliers in the USA, selecting a reliable wholesale supplier involves evaluating several key qualities. Here’s a closer look at what to consider when partnering with USA-based hotel linen suppliers.

1. Commitment to Quality and Durability

The first and foremost quality to look for in a hotel linen supplier is the ability to deliver high-quality and long-lasting products. Linens in hotels face frequent laundering and heavy usage, making durability just as important as comfort. USA-based suppliers that offer premium materials such as Egyptian cotton, high-thread-count fabrics, and stain-resistant technologies are ideal choices. A supplier’s commitment to providing durable products ensures cost efficiency and consistent guest satisfaction over time.

2. Wide Range of Products to Suit Different Needs

A good hotel linen supplier should offer a comprehensive range of products to meet your property’s specific requirements. From bed sheets and pillowcases to towels, table linens, and bathrobes, having a one-stop supplier can simplify procurement. Look for USA suppliers who cater to a variety of hospitality settings, including luxury resorts, boutique hotels, and budget accommodations, ensuring that you can find the perfect linens for your brand.

3. Customization Options for Unique Branding

Personalization is becoming a hallmark of modern hospitality. USA-based suppliers that offer customization options, such as embroidered logos, unique color palettes, or bespoke designs, can help your hotel stand out. Custom linens not only enhance the guest experience but also reinforce your property’s branding, creating a cohesive and memorable impression.

4. Sustainability and Eco-Friendly Practices

In today’s environmentally conscious market, partnering with a supplier that prioritizes sustainability is a smart move. Many USA hotel linen suppliers are adopting eco-friendly practices, offering organic cotton, recycled materials, and responsible sourcing. Choosing sustainable linens not only aligns with guest preferences but also supports your property’s green initiatives, enhancing your reputation as an environmentally friendly establishment.

5. Reliable Delivery and Inventory Management

Timely delivery is critical for maintaining smooth operations. USA-based linen suppliers should provide reliable shipping options and have efficient inventory management systems in place. Some suppliers even offer automated reordering solutions, ensuring that your hotel never faces a linen shortage. Partnering with a supplier known for on-time delivery and accurate order fulfillment can save time and reduce operational stress.

6. Competitive Pricing and Bulk Discounts

Cost-effectiveness is another vital factor when selecting a linen supplier. Look for USA-based wholesalers who offer competitive pricing, bulk discounts, and flexible payment terms. While affordability is important, it should never come at the expense of quality. A good supplier strikes the right balance between cost and value, helping your hotel maintain its budget without compromising guest satisfaction.

7. Exceptional Customer Support and Communication

Strong customer support can make all the difference in a long-term partnership. Choose a supplier who values open communication and provides prompt assistance for any queries or issues. USA-based suppliers with dedicated account managers or responsive customer service teams are better equipped to address your hotel’s unique needs and build a trustworthy relationship.

Selecting the right hotel linen supplier in the USA is about more than just finding a vendor—it’s about building a partnership that aligns with your hotel’s goals. By prioritizing quality, sustainability, reliability, and customization, you can ensure that your linens enhance the guest experience while streamlining operations. With the right supplier by your side, your hotel will be well-equipped to meet the demands of today’s competitive hospitality landscape.

S.O.S Character design help!

Hi guys! I'm here with another OC from the RP server, and this time it's a villain! I was wondering if anyone with some drawing skills might want to take a crack at him? Even just a rough sketch of your impressions of what he might look like from the description below. Trying to get my players avoid using AI as much as possible and figured I'd see if anyone wanted to give this fella a try. Anyway, Thank you so much for reading and considering. Character details are below:

Character name: Maksim Baerun Age:38 Gender:** Male

Class/Title/job:** Blacksmith, but dresses very well.

Where are they from?: Way up North

Physical description: Roughly six and a half feet tall. Long oily black hair, that is almost pearlescent to white when the light hits it, shaved on the sides and always tied back. He has eerie ghostly blue eyes, several ear piercings, and 2 brown piercings very close to the skin. The right side of his mouth has a large scar deforming that part of his face slightly.

Typically wears tailored slacks and nice leather boots. Linen shirt and leather vest with either a long coat or the sleeves rolled up. Usually has a cigar hanging from his mouth. His Gurahl essence is that of a Polar bear, all forms except his human reflecting that. His frame though is imposing, being tall and bulk with muscle (Not body builder cant put arms down big, but just *THICK*)

Special abilities/powers: Gurahl (werebear,) Commands the Forces of Nature. Similar to a lycanthrope but slightly different, Gurahl are not always bound to change by the moon and often retain their human intelligence and abilities despite their form. Because of where he grew up, far in the northern frigid mountains and ice of the Motherland, his Gurahl form has the features of a Polar Bear.

Background: A child of a powerful Romani healer and a Mob boss, he was found at a young age to be gifted in the natural magic arts. Though he was the younger of two brothers and the more gifted naturally, he tended to get overlooked for his brother. This was especially hurtful because their father left when Maksim was a toddler, and because he looked and acted similar to his father, it caused his mother to become cold and distant with him. As he grew into adolescence and his abilities grew, he began to get cocky, hunting larger and larger prey, usually solo.

At 16 he attempted to track and kill a feral dire bear on his own. He managed to finally down the beast, but was mortally wounded in the process, he barely made it back to town alive and very nearly died on his brothers table. Mikhail managed to tap into his Romani roots and managed to restore Maksim to life, but very badly scarred. Even though he felled the bear alone and survived, the praise was given to his brother for saving his life. Tired of living in that shadow, he left. At just 17 he was on his own, left to fend for himself. What he didnt realize is that the Romani magic his brother accidentally tapped into, as well as the latent power in his blood, changed him into a creature known as a Gurahl in Romani culture, or a Werebear.

After two years living partially in the wild and partially on the streets of various cities, while learning to control his newfound abilities, he made his way to the capital. There he made a name for himself in the fighting pits, catching the attention of his father. He brought him in as muscle, after a few years working with his father, a bad deal ended even worse, sending him into Crinos form in a full feral rage. Most of the crew was killed including their father. Maksim ashamed and enraged left The Motherland forever.

It's been about two and a half weeks since I posted my update about our trip to Batuu -- and it has been a weird two and half weeks. Shortly after I finished that post, Jack and I found out that our work contract was ending abruptly, effective March 1st. We always knew that was a possibility, and we're difficult to scare at this point, especially when it comes to work stuff, so where that might have filled some people with quite a lot of dread, Jack and I were both just like 'welp, I guess this is happening.'

We knew about a couple of possibilities for new work, but we figured we'd have at least two weeks off in between, just while we got everything lined up. Besides chasing down those potentials for a new contract, we also used the free time to get a bunch of household chores out of the way, things like taxes and taking the car into the shop and then getting it smog tested, going in for eye exams, all the sort of things that are easy to put off during the work week and then not want to do on the weekend.

And in between all that I actually got some sewing done too, lol. Whenever I first wear something that I sewed, I take notes on anything that needs to be fixed or adjusted or changed, and while I was generally happy with my outfit for our Batuu Bounding day, there were a few small things I wanted to fix about it -- both in the hopes of wearing it to Batuu again at some point, and so that the pieces can be worn on their own with other clothing.

For the sweatshirt I sewed to go underneath the blue linen vest, I actually knew what I wanted to change before we went to Batuu, but specifically put off making those changes until after our big Disney day. It was fine under the vest, but without the vest it fit a bit awkwardly: the edge finishing on the collar gaped open and didn't want to lay right, and the side seams flared out too much over the hips.

I ended up trimming the collar edging down to a much narrower width, like I said I might back near the beginning of February. I played around with adding another detail there, maybe a stand up collar just in the back, but in the end decided it looks fine with just that narrow trim.

To fix the flare over the hips, I ended up needing to take out the cool detail on the side seam. Sewing that up as a regular seam allowed me to fiddle with the fit much easier, and it also removed a lot of bulk from those multi-layered exposed seams. It fits under the vest even better now than it did before, and I can wear it without the vest, just with jeans or leggings or whatever.

For the vest, I was generally happy with the fit, but wearing it around all day made it clear just how much I actually needed hooks and eyes to keep the flap over the zipper closed. I went back and forth on how to do the hooks and eyes, contemplated putting them on the outside of the flap before deciding to hide them under the flap instead. I hand sewed several of them down, but then when it was just creating weird bumps and ripples in the center front, I took all of them off except the one right at the underbust.

That one hidden hook and eye was only just barely enough to keep the flap over the zipper from swinging open, so this last week I took off that one hook and eye pair, then started hand sewing them to the outside instead. I placed the one at the underbust first, since that's the most fitted point, then spaced the hooks out along the outside of the overlap at even spacing so that the top one ended up right at the very top corner of the flap.

My first round of sewing on a bunch of these taught me not to try to match up the eyes with the hooks by measurement or by what lays flat on my table, but rather to actually put the vest on and thread an eye through each hook and use tailor's chalk to mark where each eye needed to go. Like the rest of the vest, it absolutely will not lie flat on the table, but it fits me wonderfully, with no ripples or weird bumps along that center front edge.

I ended up really liking the way the exposed clasped looked, and I think it adds a really subtle Star Wars-y type detail. The black hooks and eyes nearly disappear on the dark blue linen (far more than in these well-lit photos), so they end up being just a bit of texture and visual interest rather than yelling about their claspiness.

Most of the time I'll wear it as in the photo above, with the top two clasps undone. The weight of the large metal hooks helps the triangular edge of the undone flap hang properly, which was another problem I had with it during our Batuu visit.

But the design really felt like it demanded a fully functional closure, so I added two more hooks up past the point where they're needed to actually cover the zipper. Leaving just one clasp undone results in a cool, slightly more asymmetric neckline:

And closing it all the way to the top creates a very sleek, buttoned-up kind of look.

I have some ideas about other pieces of clothing that I might be able to pair this vest with, and hopefully an excuse to wear my whole Batuu Bound outfit again in the near-ish future. Either way, I'll get some pictures of the updated vest on me sometime soon.

And since the new contract situation has worked itself out -- Jack and I will officially be back at it with a new client starting this week -- we're contemplating going to one of the Star Wars After Dark dates at Disneyland in April or May. I'll definitely wear the vest then, and possibly the sweatshirt too, depending on the night time temperatures predicted for whenever we end up going.

With that in mind, there's a new stash-busting sewing project I've started as well, but it really deserves its own post. Watch this space.

How to Style Your Sofa Like an Interior Designer

A beautifully styled sofa can instantly elevate your entire living room. It’s more than just where you sit—it’s the heart of the space, the anchor for your layout, and a visual cue for your personal style. Whether you have a compact 2 seater, a spacious 3 seater, or a cozy L shaped sofa, the secret to styling it like a pro lies in texture, balance, and thoughtful layering.

Start with the Foundation

Before you even reach for the cushions, take a moment to look at the sofa’s form and fabric. Is it soft and neutral? Textured and structured? Use that as your base. A cotton or linen sofa, like the ones at Home and Soul, already brings an organic, calming energy. You’ll want your styling choices to enhance, not overpower, that feeling.

If you're working with a 2 seater sofa, simplicity is key—think clean lines and intentional accessories. A 3 seater gives you a bit more room to play, while an L shaped sofa offers a generous canvas for layering and zoning.

Layer with Intention

Interior designers love working in layers because they add visual richness without clutter. Start with a throw blanket—casually draped over one side or folded neatly on the armrest. Choose natural textures like chunky knits, soft cotton, or light linen to keep the look relaxed and inviting.

Next, bring in a mix of throw cushions in different sizes and textures. A good rule of thumb is to use an odd number of cushions—say, three on a 2 seater, five on a 3 seater, and seven or more on an L shaped sofa. Mix solid neutrals with subtle patterns, and don’t shy away from a pop of contrast in one or two cushions to keep it visually interesting.

Create Balance and Flow

Styling a sofa isn’t just about what’s on it—it’s also about what surrounds it. For a cohesive, designer-level look, think about balance. If your sofa is low and soft, a taller floor lamp nearby can help lift the eye and add dimension. A textured rug underneath or a beautiful coffee table in front creates grounding.

For L shaped sofas, balance the bulk with light, open accessories—like a side table with clean lines or a slim-profile lamp. In smaller spaces, especially with a 2 seater, every item should feel intentional and harmonious.

Add Personal Touches

What makes a styled sofa feel truly designer? The personal touches. It might be a handwoven tray on the coffee table nearby, a ceramic vase you picked up on holiday, or a perfectly imperfect cushion that adds charm to the mix.

Even the most minimalist 3 seater sofa can feel curated with a few well-chosen elements. And for L shaped sofas, which often become the central lounging spot, adding layers of comfort like oversized throws or plush cushions brings both style and function into focus.

Switch with the Seasons

Another interior designer trick? Updating your sofa styling with the seasons. In warmer months, keep things airy with light linen throws and soft, neutral tones.

This keeps your living room feeling fresh without changing the big pieces. And it’s especially impactful with larger setups like an L shaped sofa, where a seasonal refresh goes a long way in changing the room’s mood.

Styling your sofa like an interior designer doesn’t mean overthinking every detail—it’s about layering with care, choosing with intention, and letting your personality shine through. Whether you’re working with a cozy 2 seater, a family-friendly 3 seater, or a generous L shaped sofa, the right styling can make your space feel more polished, comfortable, and uniquely yours.

Long kurtis have been a staple in traditional and modern wardrobes for decades. They’re versatile, comfortable, and elegant, making them perfect for a wide range of occasions. Despite their simplicity, styling long kurtis to appear slim and attractive requires careful consideration. Factors like fit, fabric, and accessories all play a part in creating a flattering appearance.

Whether you're dressing for work, a casual day out, or a special event, this guide offers 10 tips to look attractive and slim in long kurtis. By combining these tips with your personal style, you’ll always stand out in your favorite kurtis.

2. What Should You Consider When Choosing Long Kurtis?

Choosing the right kurti is the first step to looking attractive and slim. It involves understanding your body type, selecting the appropriate fit, and considering the occasion.

Body Type Matters

Every body type can look great in long kurtis if styled correctly:

Pear-shaped bodies: A-line or empire-waist kurtis highlight the upper body while skimming over the hips.

Apple-shaped bodies: Avoid tight-fitting kurtis; instead, opt for flowy designs with detailing near the neckline to draw attention upward.

Hourglass figures: Straight-cut kurtis are ideal as they enhance your natural proportions.

Rectangle-shaped bodies: Kurtis with cinched waists or flared hemlines add the illusion of curves.

Fit is Everything

A poorly fitted kurti can ruin your look. Tight kurtis may highlight areas you’d prefer to conceal, while overly loose ones can make you appear shapeless. Aim for a tailored fit that complements your frame without clinging too tightly.

Match Length to Height

Petite women should avoid ankle-length kurtis as they may make you appear shorter. Knee-length or mid-calf kurtis are ideal.

Taller women can experiment with longer kurtis, including floor-length designs, for a dramatic effect.

3. How Can Fabric Choice Enhance Your Appearance?

Fabric can make or break an outfit. Choosing the right material ensures a flattering silhouette.

Lightweight Fabrics for Flattering Drapes

Fabrics like georgette, chiffon, rayon, and soft cotton create a sleek and slim appearance. They drape effortlessly over the body, enhancing your natural shape.

Avoid Bulky Fabrics

Heavy fabrics such as brocade, velvet, or jacquard add unnecessary volume, which can make you look broader. Save these materials for structured outfits or special occasions where opulence is the goal.

Seasonal Choices

In summer, breathable materials like cotton or linen keep you comfortable while maintaining a polished look.

For winter, layer chiffon or rayon kurtis with lightweight cardigans to stay warm without adding bulk.

4. What Patterns Create a Slimmer Look?

Patterns play a significant role in influencing how slim or broad an outfit makes you look.

Vertical Patterns Elongate Your Frame

Vertical stripes, panel designs, or embroidery elongate the body, creating a slimming illusion. Horizontal lines can make you appear wider, so stay away from them.

Small Prints Over Large Motifs

Large patterns can overwhelm your frame, especially if you’re petite. Stick to subtle florals, paisleys, or geometric prints to maintain balance and elegance.

Strategic Placement of Designs

Concentrate patterns near areas you want to emphasize, such as the neckline or hemline. Keeping the midsection plain helps maintain a streamlined look.

5. How Can You Use Colors to Look Slim?

Color choice is another critical aspect of styling kurtis to achieve a slimming effect.

Dark Tones Work Wonders

Dark shades like black, navy, and burgundy are universally flattering. They appear to have less volume and more depth.

Monochromatic Outfits for Continuity

Wearing the same color from top to bottom elongates the silhouette. For example, a navy kurti paired with matching bottoms creates a seamless and slimming effect.

Avoid Busy Color Blocks

Bright, contrasting colors in one outfit can visually divide your frame, making you look broader. Instead, opt for gradient designs or single-tone kurtis.

6. Are Accessories Key to Elevating Long Kurtis?

Accessories not only enhance your outfit but can also create a more flattering overall appearance when styled thoughtfully.

Define Your Waist with Belts

Adding a slim belt to your kurti defines your waistline, which is especially helpful for boxy or straight-cut designs. Ensure the belt complements the color and fabric of your kurti for a cohesive look.

Keep Jewelry Minimal

Minimal jewelry creates a refined appearance:

Long necklaces give you a slimmer appearance by lengthening your torso.

Avoid chunky necklaces or oversized earrings that can make your upper body appear heavier.

Experiment with Scarves and Dupattas

Choose lightweight scarves or dupattas and drape them diagonally or loosely over one shoulder. This trick draws attention vertically, enhancing your overall appearance.

7. Should You Focus on Necklines for a Slimmer Effect?

The neckline of a kurti has a significant impact on how your upper body appears.

Best Necklines for a Slimming Effect

V-neck: Highlights the face and lengthens the neck.

Scoop neck: Softens the upper body for a balanced look.

Necklines to Avoid

Avoid high necklines like turtlenecks or closed collars, as they can make your neck and shoulders appear broader.

Detailed Necklines

Embroidered or embellished necklines attract attention to the upper body while diverting focus from other areas.

8. What Sleeve Styles Are Most Flattering?

Sleeves can make a surprising difference in how slim and attractive your kurtis look.

Flattering Sleeve Lengths

Three-quarter sleeves: Perfect for elongating the arms and creating balance.

Fitted full sleeves: Add elegance without extra volume.

Avoid Oversized Sleeves

Voluminous sleeves can make your upper body appear larger. Stick to streamlined designs for a slimmer effect.

Accentuate with Sleeve Details

Details like slits or subtle lace trims add elegance without compromising the overall look.

9. How to Pair Bottoms with Long Kurtis for a Slim Look?

Choosing the right bottoms is essential to achieving a flattering ensemble.

Ideal Bottoms

Leggings: Their snug fit keeps the look sleek.

Straight pants: For a fitted, polished appearance, pair them with long kurtis.

Cigarette pants: Add structure to your outfit, ideal for formal settings.

Avoid Oversized Sleeves

Voluminous sleeves can make your upper body appear larger. Stick to streamlined designs for a slimmer effect.

Accentuate with Sleeve Details

Details like slits or subtle lace trims add elegance without compromising the overall look.

10. What Footwear Complements Long Kurtis Best?

Footwear can significantly influence your overall appearance when wearing long kurtis.

Best Footwear Choices

Heels or wedges: These add height and elongate your frame.

Pointed flats: Provide a polished look without the added bulk.

Avoid Chunky Shoes

Bulky footwear, like heavy boots or wide sneakers, can make your outfit look unbalanced.

Match the Style

Your footwear should align with the occasion and tone of your outfit. Neutral or metallic tones are versatile options.

11. Why Is Confidence the Ultimate Styling Tip?

Even the simplest outfit can be made more elegant by the way you present yourself.

Embrace Your Style

Your confidence shines when you feel comfortable in your attire. Focus on what makes you feel good, whether it’s the fit, color, or accessories.

Practice Positivity

A confident posture and smile can make you appear more attractive, regardless of your outfit.

Celebrate Your Uniqueness

Fashion is a form of self-expression. Don’t hesitate to experiment and embrace styles that reflect your personality.

13. FAQs

Yes, long kurtis can be styled to suit any body type. The key is to choose the right fit and design that flatters your shape.

2. What’s the best length for petite women?

Luck has nothing to do with this weekend’s biggest Amazon discounts, and everything to do with whether you have an Amazon Prime membership. Prime members can access major discounts that non-members simply can’t, and every weekend, Amazon quietly marks down its best stuff—like kitchen must-haves and comfortable bedding sets. All deals are exclusively available to members only, and they include finds up to 56% off. We dug deep throughout the Just for Prime Hub, the most exclusive section of Amazon, and rounded up the best deals by category. Find home, kitchen, bathroom and bedding items. Some of the greatest finds we discovered include linen closet essentials like comforters, pillowcases, and throw blankets, as well as convenient storage solutions such as refrigerator organizers with prices starting at $8. Not a Prime member yet? No problem. You can sign up for a free 30-day trial right now and immediately unlock these deals (and more), plus the added bonus of free two-day shipping. Best Amazon Prime-Member Only Deals Overall Carote 12-Piece Knife Set Amazon This 12-pack of colorful stainless steel kitchen knives has a blade type that can be used for all kinds of foods, from fatty meats to thick-skinned vegetables. The set includes an 8-inch chef knife, 8-inch bread knife, 8-inch slicing knife, a 7-inch Santoku knife, 5-inch utility knife, and 3.5-inch paring knife. Each one is made with high-carbon steel and a nonstick ceramic coating to help each cut through food like butter. All that practical functionality is great, but upon first glance, you’ll immediately notice this is no boring black-and-gray block of knives. Each knife is a pretty pastel color, featuring ombre gradient shading that gets lighter and lighter toward the tip of the blade. They’re sharp, cute, and on sale! Unikon Six-Piece Refrigerator Organizers Amazon Another standout Prime member-only deal is this six-piece organizer set for the kitchen. It’s designed with a transparent exterior and partitioned-off compartments inside—but you could use it for storing plenty of other items, too. The pack comes with one large and two small drawers, plus three small cubes to separate the drawers into compartments. Use it in the fridge to store canned drinks, eggs, and all kinds of produce, or in your pantry to store nuts, raisins, dried pasta, and other foods bought in bulk. You can even use it under the kitchen or bathroom sink for storing beauty products and cleaning supplies. Keep scrolling for more great Prime member-only deals across the home, kitchen, bedding, and bathroom categories. Prices start at $8. Best Amazon Home Deals Amazon There are a lot of Prime member-only deals to sort through in the home space, and some of our favorites include home decor, like this timeless wall mirror and this versatile console table that can be styled in a front entryway as easily as in a living room or bar area. If it’s storage solutions you need, clear out clutter with a pretty storage cabinet or store away clothes you won’t need until next season in fabric storage cubes.

Dehumidifiers help wick up some of that extra moisture, reducing the risk of mold and mildew, and we found an excellent option on sale for Prime members right now. It’s been purchased more than 10,000 times in the last month, so you know it’s popular among shoppers, and even has more than 7,900 five-star ratings. It runs super quietly and has an automatic shut-off feature that’s triggered when the tank reaches anywhere from 700 to 800 milliliters of water. Ideal for compact spaces, like RVs and small closets, bathrooms, basements, and bedrooms up to 280 square feet, this marked-down dehumidifier can collect up to 16 ounces of condensation in 24 hours. WiseLife Three-Pack Storage Bags Amazon Staying organized is no easy feat regardless of if you live alone or with two, three, four, or more people. If it seems like you’re always low on space and searching for new storage solutions, this three-pack of fabric organizers will consolidate clothes (and other items) while maximizing space. Each foldable container features a clear window so you can visibly assess what’s inside, and never lose track of what’s stored in which bin ever again. Use it for storing away seasonal clothes, or in the linen closet for holding onto extra sheets, pillows, blankets, towels, or quilts. And for parents, it’s a genius solution for a crowded kids’ room full of toys. The breathable fabric keeps items dry, mildew-, and odor-free. Yet, it is still durable enough to resist and repel moisture without ripping or breaking apart. Best Amazon Kitchen Deals Amazon From a customer-loved immersion blender to clear plastic organizers that are guaranteed to keep your fridge in tiptop shape, we discovered a handful of great deals in the kitchen section. Some standout deals include a three-in-one stock pot for pasta and pastel-colored knife set that’s so pretty, you’ll want to use it well past spring.

This best-selling $27 stock pot is proof of that, as it’s a customer-loved cooking tool that not only gets the job done in the kitchen, but gets the job done well. Perfect for cooking all kinds of pasta, soups, and ramen dishes, it’s oven- and dishwasher-safe. But that’s not even the pot’s most convenient feature. What people really love about it is its built-in strainer lid. It completely eliminates the need for a separate colander, saving you both time and money as you cook. The pot also comes with twist-and-lock handles that don’t get hot, so you won’t need oven mitts. Carote Egg Omelette Pan Amazon Does everyone really need a pan specifically for cooking eggs? No, probably not. But if you’re looking for a quick and easy way to make omelets for your whole family, this inexpensive pan is the only tool you need. Able to evenly cook four egg dishes at once, this four-cup frying pan has a nonstick coating that lets eggs literally slide right out with ease. It evenly distributes heat, making for faster, simpler cooking, and it doesn’t even need to go through the dishwasher. Just a simple wipedown with a paper towel will do the trick. And if grocery store eggs are getting too pricy for your taste, you can also use this for flipping burgers and pancakes or cooking breakfast sausages, too. Best Amazon Bathroom and Bedding Deals Amazon There are some great finds in the bathroom and bedding categories, and spring is the perfect time for an upgrade. Freshen up your bathroom towels with new linens and tidy up cleaning supplies with an under-the-sink organizer. We also highly recommend going through and reorganizing old beauty products. Be sure to discard expired products as you go! Check out these bathroom and bedding deals (and more) below. Elnido Queen-Size Feather Comforter Amazon Getting the perfect down comforter doesn’t have to break the bank—especially when it’s on sale. Featuring feather and downfiber, this queen-size blanket is hotel-level fluffy and made from Okeo-Tex Standard 100% Certified cotton that is extremely soft, lightweight, and breathable. It will keep you cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and is even suitable for hot sleepers dealing with night sweats, per reviewers. The comforter’s baffle box design is what helps regulate its temperature, as the box-stitch construction keeps the fill distributed evenly in place so it retains its fluffiness, too. Lane Linen Bath Towels Set Amazon This popular towel set comes with 18 pieces total, including six 28 x 54-inch towels, six hand towels, and six washcloths. It’s the perfect amount of towels to get a family of two or three through a week of showers (or, you know, a family of just one if you can’t stand doing the laundry). The towels are made from 100% cotton. They’re both fluffy and absorbent, providing a quick-dry experience post-bath. The towels’ quick-drying nature also means they don’t stay damp for long, reducing the risk of developing a moldy, musty smell when not in use. Source link
