Pride and Prejudice @ Dumbarton House

Okay so I was ready exactly at noon, loaded up tix, and paid for them within ten seconds. My transaction didn’t go through because the website problems and the show was immediately sold out at 12:00:10. I’m insanely bummed about this, but I also know there were about 900 people watching on Eventbrite in a few minutes before it went up. Can we put our heads together and make another outdoor watch party happen somewhere??

Looking for specific desserts to satisfy my sweet tooth!

Hi all!

I’ve been consuming massive quantities of ice cream this summer and I’m starting to get ice creamed out. Nevertheless, my sweet tooth persists and would love recs for any restaurants (any kind) or bakeries with the following desserts:

- Flan
- Tres leches
- Tembleque
- Cheesecake
- Mallorca
- Anything with coconut
- Any amazing non chocolate pastry you’d recommend

I’m also okay if this leads me back to ice cream lol!

It would be great if these were in or near the west end, Georgetown, DuPont circle, Logan circle, or 14th st but as long as it’s transit accessible I’ll figure it out.

Where to get a hazelnut latte in DC?

Hi all!

I have a friend (maybe more than a friend?) visiting from out of town and they love hazelnut lattes. Does anyone have any ideas on where to get one?

I’m not a huge coffee drinker and looking through Instagram and other Reddit threads didn’t turn anything up. They’ll be staying in the West End, so it would be great if it was there or in Georgetown / foggy bottom / DuPont / Logan circle / 14th st but as long as it’s accessible by transit it works.

It’ll be their first time in DC so I’m hoping to make a good first impression!

Bitches (and brides) what have been your biggest bang for your buck beauty services?

I'm engaged, and wanting to start investing in my appearance a bit more without breaking the bank. I know there's a whole world of things I could just throw money at until the cows come home without ever really seeing any real difference.

I recently built out a skincare routine (with Korean beauty products thanks to Hosu in Georgetown and their AI tool that points out all your problem areas to address.) I've loved having an actual routine!

I do my nails and I get my hair done regularly, but have been thinking about botox, teeth whitening, infrared, fillers, lymphatic drainage, blah blah blah.

So what have you done that you think really was transformative, where have you gone locally?

“Suite Siblings” Zach & Cody looking for their forever home

These “suite” one-year-old brothers are looking for their forever home in the DMV! Zach (black & white) and Cody (black) are two very sweet, slightly shy kitties who are looking for their person to love and adopt them after moving in and out of several foster homes. These two are inseparable and are constantly sleeping together, rubbing up against each other, playing together, etc. They’re very calm cats and spend most of their time sleeping or window watching, though they do get the occasional nightly zoomies. If you’re interested in learning more about Zach & Cody, please feel free to message me or check out their adoption page!

any girlies here interested in salsa dancing? Trying to make new friends :)

Hey everyone! first ever post in here. I am new-ish to the DMV. Live in Alexandria and love going to salsa dance around DC. I have very few girlfriends since I moved here and I am looking to make a few more to go out and explore the city, go to events, possibly be my plus one in dating events lol and join in on mutual interests (soccer, salsa, coffee shops, runs, museums, walks, etc..).

I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic (25 yrs, Latina girlie over here), looove dogs, soccer, salsa, yapping, coffee shops, good food, and more. There is salsa almost everyday around DC, including tonight around Mt. Vernon, if you are up for it or even if you just want to keep in contact and meet up one day, I'd love that!

Best places in DC to sell clothes?

Hi bitches! I just did a major closet clean out and have a ton of cute tops, jeans, jackets, and work clothes that I’m looking to sell for good prices. Are there any places in DC like Plato’s Closet or a flea market//clothing meetup where I can sell? I’m weary of Depop because there are so many items, so it would be a lot of work to ship them all. I’d rather sell in person or turn them in for money somewhere. Also would love donate what’s not sold, so any women’s shelter recs are welcome too!

ISO stylist for long to short cut on fine hair

New to DC and needing a hair stylist recommendation. I have let my hair grow out and would like to cut 10-12 inches off to do a hair donation. (Have grown out and cut off to donate about 6 times already, so not emotionally attached to long hair) I have natural fairly straight, fine hair, but a lot of it. I really mean a dense pony tail for how fine the texture is.

I am looking for a stylist to take my hair from long to off my shoulders. But also need somebody that can do some consulting because I have made it to my 40's with no idea of a cut that looks good on me besides long. I am a bit of a blank canvas and need a professional opinion.

Comfortable going up to the $150 range if it's the right fit. I live in Navy Yards, but very willing to travel, preferably someplace I can get to via metro or bicycle.

Where do you buy your art?

Hi lovelies, where do you buy your art in DMV? Any new artists you love? Shops to check out? Markets or festivals that feel lucky? Thrift stores or restaurants/cafes with hidden gems in the area? I am agnostic about the medium or style, my walls are just feeling tired and need something new.

Ps- Feel free to share your own work if you are an artist in the area.

ISO personal trainer in NW

Anyone have a personal trainer that they love? Ideally a woman or non-binary person.

My goal is physical competence and longterm health, not looking a certain way.

3 main needs:

  • I need getting there to be easy: Columbia Heights, Petworth, Adams Morgan
  • I need to not be perceived: 1-on-1 training, ideally not in a crowded gym
  • I need someone to be mad at me if I cancel: it has to be impossible to casually cancel through an app with zero accountability; I want the same human individual every time where we're building a rapport, no rotating cast of trainers

My current trainer is great and I like that her gym is always closed/empty for our sessions, but she's a 25+ minute drive each way and has limited schedule availability.

Hip hop dance classes?

Hello! Any recs for hip hop classes in DC? I want to seriously learn and not do one of those “let’s learn a dance to this track” beginners only classes, which are fun! But not what I’m looking for. :) Think Rashida Jones’s hip hop dances on her IG with her instructor. Thank you in advance’

Close couple beach getaway

Hi all,

I'm looking for a recommendation for a fun, but not super expensive, off season beach weekend, no further than 2-3 hours from DC. I was thinking Delaware/Rehoboth and we'd focus on the breweries, restaurants, beach, etc. But would love suggestions. Even for places to stay or Airbnbs you'd highly recommend. This would be for early October.

I know it'll be cold but I love the ocean, even when I just get to look at it.
