I totally thought the product image was AI and did not expect this to look that well
Edit: I bought this in a Korean convenience store. I just took a screenshot from a Japanese website because it was the first pic I found online.

I was looking for a dress for a Romantasy Convention I'm part of, and saw this dress online. I decided to make it custom-fit my figure since they didn't have my size. I took a chance because the dress itself is only $140 (with this many layers and fabric, that's a STEAL) and I didn't know what to expect. Well, WOWZA! I feel fantastic in this dress. I love how I look and I will wear this EVERYWHERE!!! Grocery store, indoor mall... I don't care where. I just want to look this good all the time, haha. Love this dress!! Gives ACOTAR vibes!!!!
ETA: please give love to the photographer if you can. She is why this photo is so magical!! @studiokalphotography on Instagram.
And thank you for the love. This made my entire month. I am grateful for all the comments!! I'm trying to get through all of them but there are so many 😭 I'm upvoting even if I don't comment. ❤️

We were dying all day, I didn't know what to expect when I gave the baker these reference pictures but she completely understood the vision 😂 Money very well spent, we will be repeat customers.

I found the first image online and laughed really hard so I wanted the cake for myself but I needed more rainbow (Raenbow??). Literally just asked for a rainbow background and they DELIVERED. It's almond flavored with raspberry filling. The cake was almost gone and it's HUGE. That's how much people liked it!! EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS!!!!

Our cat Fergus was a dedicated lover of cardboard boxes, so when he passed away last October we wanted to get him a "cardboard" urn made of ceramic so he could rest in a box forever. I couldn't find an example but reached out to a ceramicist who specializes in recreating the look and textures of well-loved cardboard and he very kindly accepted the commission job. The result far, far, far exceeded our expectations and we are so grateful to the artist for this fitting tribute to our beautiful boy. Made by artist Tim Kowalczyk.

We were driving over 5 hours to see our daughter for her birthday. She loves hotdogs and found this cake online and had sent me a picture saying she loved it.
I researched bakeries around their new home, not too many choices, and picked the best one based off Google.
They did NOT disappoint!! It looked and tasted amazing! I was extremely impressed.

I went with a walmart cake because of this sub, and was not disappointed! For $30, this cake was perfect! The cake was tasty and moist. Will use them again in the future!

A cop passed me while I took a pic of this in the turn lane. Luckily deals this good aren’t illegal.

They even added edible sparkle dust. I don’t think you can beat this for $20!!

I finally messaged the seller and she offered him for free because he has a ripped seam. I had no idea that "giant" actually meant giant. I love him so much but I have no idea where to put him in my apartment.
