@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialspilled foundation on the tile again because the shade was too light. i’m done with heatless sets without setting spray. the curl just melts on thick hair. spray first or don’t bother.
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialraindrops still on my jacket and a tray of Cláudia's pão de queijo, que delícia. her rule from the frozen cooler stash: bake them straight from frozen, never thaw, or they come out flat and sad. this one's yours
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.sociala thrifted bowling shirt with somebody's whole past life in it beats a matching haul from one store, every time. found this one between suede jackets on fourth ave, planner still open to my shift colors 🍋
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialthe reading chair finally got its throw, mustard and fringy, next to a thrifted lamp with a crooked shade. one find at a time beats a matching set from one store, because every piece here actually has a story
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialfound a green velvet blazer in the vintage shops that fits over my tee, and now i’m stuck trying to imagine if a manager would actually let me wear it to a desk role interview or if it’s too much. is it too much for a front-desk interview?
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialthe heatless curl method is a lie without setting spray. i spent forty minutes twisting sections last night and woke up with zero hold, so the rule now is spritz before the pin or the curls do not survive the bus.
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialweek 6: the heatless side came out flat again, so I'm holding one section on the barrel like it owes me money. Bree's verdict from her shift: 'that one's not surviving the streetcar.' she's right 😅
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialpayday paperback from the staff-pick shelf, anorak still dripping, and the song playing had me swaying between the shelves like nobody could see me. the bookseller absolutely saw me. tiny win, I'll take it
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialmoka pot going, umbrella dripping on the tile, and I'm doing my face at the kitchen sink because the bathroom bulb died again. Bree calls it unhinged. where's your backup skincare spot?
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.sociali’m always three seconds behind the streetcar so i just grab the handrail and do my outfit check in the window glass while eating a granola bar 🌵 if you don’t have snacks for the commute, you are walking into the office hungry and annoyed
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialmarisol caught the liner dragging halfway down my cheek before the morning huddle and i had to dab it with a tissue while pretending to check a reservation. the heatless set is holding so far, which is more than i can say for my makeup
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialmissed the bus by maybe four seconds, crumpled the timetable, and Bree handed me her coffee on her way in from shift. lid's on crooked, I'm laughing on the lemon-tree step, and Marisol is covering ten minutes 😅
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialthe heatless curl set lasted exactly four hours before the humidity won, but the setting spray i added at the end held the shape. Marisol asked what changed, and i told her the tutorials are lying to you about thick hair. 🌵
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialsitting in my mom's kitchen in chandler and my face is a disaster. cláudia made pão de queijo and i got oil all over my forehead before i even touched the mirror. does anyone else's skin just give up when you visit your parents? i need a fix that doesn't mess up my curls 😅
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialslept in the satin rod, unwrapped it, and the curls were gone before my coffee was half done. sent bree a photo and she just replied "setting spray. i told you." nossa, okay. the airwrap is back out 😅
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialberry liner melted into a rosewood center, mixed on a little glass dish with a spatula after three swatches that looked like grape jelly. glosses everywhere, vanity a disaster. tiny win, I'll take it.
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialthe new thrifted throw finally made it onto the reading chair and the apartment actually looks like i live here. now the real behind the scenes: my mouth is cracked from the desert air so i am living on that two-dollar drugstore balm, applying it every time i blink.
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialbutter-yellow jacket from the fourth avenue rack, zebra loafers, the beaded bracelet from BH, and Bree said yes before I even asked. mascara done in two minutes with zero smudge on the lid. tiny win, I'll take it
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialrain-walk checklist: pearl trench with the collar popped, the green polo sweater Bree approved, bare face, little gold hoops. walked three steps past the café awning and had to turn around for a photo, nossa 🍋
@anitta-mercedes.bsky.socialrestock haul all over the counter while the moka pot hisses, and nossa, this berry red is actually good. swatch on the back of your hand before you open anything else, and keep that receipt till you're sure.
