What about taking the legs off? yes it would be lower to the ground, but it would still be cute and cozy and you’d have much more space to lean back on the bed.
Hi! These are the things I would suggest you do; the bench is not practical at all and you’ll find yourself not seating there because it really wont be comfortable, you should get a love seat. There is one from target called “Fully upholstered storage bench” that would be much better and at a good price, its an actual seating piece and it has storage!. Then, I would fully get rid of the bean bag, it doesnt go with your space and it seems like theres no space for it. And last, Im not sure if it would actually fit but from the video it seems like it would; I would move the cubby furniture to next to the closet where you currently have that little cart, and would leave the space by the window open so it doesn't look so cluttered.
Hey 👋🏽 Lucia!! I really enjoyed this vlog ☺️ I did want to add that I hope you bring a pocket knife, razor and pepper spray with you while you’re walking alone. Just be safe in NYC!
I love the bench! Everyone can give you suggestions but if it is your vision then you do whatever makes you happy! I love your place! And as you said in another video you don’t want to put any holes or mount your TV which is smart! ❤️
I love the bench you bought as a bench for putting on your boots/shoes or as a coffee table. If you had space it could be cute with a tray on it and some coffee table books. As for seating to watch TV, I’m thinking kitchen table or bed unless you do what you really don’t want to do and turn your bed and put it close to the wall. If you did that you could get a loveseat and use it as a room divider to give yourself a bit of separation between your sleeping space and TV watching/sitting space.
Lucia, 7 pads to remove makeup🤔 seems like you could be stripping the oils in your face, wouldn’t it be easier to wash your face? Not judging, just curious
@@LuciaCordarohave you tried cleansing balms as a first cleanse to remove makeup/suscreen? The Elemis naked one is amazing, it’s unscented and very gentle yet effective. It’s pretty hydrating and takes off absolutely every bit of makeup. Much better for the environment too since you don’t need cotton rounds for it!
@@LuciaCordaro highly recommend if you get a chance to try one! Some have a lot of fragrance but the Elemis Naked and Paula’s Choice cleansing balms are both fragrance free and super gentle
Lucia, you just got out of a long term relationship.. Give yourself some time to rest and really settle in. Enjoy being single for now..there’s nothing wrong with that. Also please go get your blood work done sooner than later to make sure everything is ok. You shouldn’t be that tired all the time. Love your videos!!❤️🌺
Hi, I think that bench is pretty but not really practicable. I think you should have got an easy chair to sit in and read or watch T.V. and it should be where you put that white chest of draws is. Still think you should mount the T.V. on the small wall between your bedroom area and the kitchen where you can pull it out and see it from the kitchen sitting in the easy chair your bed etc. Because your apartment is so small what ever you put in it should meet more than one need and not just look pretty. The bench has no storage in it. Have you ever watched the vlogs of the designers of small apartment vlogs.? I will no longer give suggestions but will continue to watch your vlogs as I enjoy your energy, Have great day Lucia.
I agree with your suggestion to mount the t.v. I also think the pink mirror should be mounted. Hire a Task Rabbit if it's too much for you to do on your own. It would be for me. 😊
You could get 2 oblong pillows to place at the foot of your bed (on a bench) for a seating situation. The pillows would serve as a back to lean against.
You can get your right AirPod replaced if you go to the Apple Store. If your AirPods are insured it shouldn’t be too much maybe like 30 bucks. If they aren’t it’ll probably cost around 60-70
Def check out the article in today's NY Post titled "New website lets NYers use traffic cams to turn streets into instant photo booths" It would make for a cute bit for your vlog!!!
Plan date and friends on the same days! Its honestly more fun to go on a date knowing you're meeting up with friends afterwords to debrief. And if the date is awful you have an excuse to leave lol
I think the bench was a good idea, but I think you'll want something comfier. Any chance if you got rid of the little green ottomans and bean bag, you could fit in a small upholstered chair?
Hi Lucia, native New Yorker here: NYC water is some of the best and safest in the country! You can definitely drink the tap water and there is no need for you to get so many water bottles in the future. Congrats on your move!
@@LuciaCordaro Nope, not a myth. If you want it cold a Brita would work but I now live in Chicago and think the tap weather in NY is much better than Chicago. It’s really some of the best out there - that’s why NYC pizza and bagels are thought to be so good! They have quality reports on the NYC gov website that show how clean it is but seriously all New Yorkers drink the water, it’s the best and so so clean.
I was going to say this too! I was floored when I saw her opening a full case of plastic water bottles. What is this, 2002?! Get a filter or drink the tap. NYC tap is great.
Hi Lucia 🙂 You shouldn't be feeling tired all the time. You might need vitamin b12 🤔. Well done for assembling your furniture but we are proud of you, just for being yourself. The bench will come in handy for when you invite your subscribers to your apartment 🥳🍾🍷😂. I like watching you just doing 'ordinary' daily things like cooking, laundry, tidying, cleaning.
For some reason there kept being full minute long ad breaks throughout this video. Is this a setting you can control? If so, could you do shorter ads with an option to skip?
@@LuciaCordaronope! It kept saying something like “longer ad for less breaks in then video” and didn’t give the option to skip. But then it kept doing that same thing over and over.
You’re very active (which is great) but I’m wondering whether you’re feeling so tired because you’re not eating enough throughout the day. What you’ve shown in previous vlogs seems like enough for someone with a sedentary lifestyle but you are very on the go, all the time. Food is fuel etc etc
Wait- not trying to be funny- but didn’t you unpack like 12 applesauces into your cabinet in this vlog? Then said you needed to go to the grocery store to get applesauce?😂😂
Eat 100g of animal protein. You are probably tired because you eat so many carbs and not enough protein. And add weight training in place of cardio. Women need muscle!
any ideas for my new couch/bench situation ?!
You could also get a “settee”instead which is like a mini sofa couch and has a backrest
I would have a futon or daybed🫣
@@Elle_lhx7wx hmm I haven’t heard of that cool
@@Cheri94 yeah I probs should have done that lol

A little under cabinet mounted light strips (stick on) would give your counters light and be great evening mood lighting for your home.

@@Cheri94 I wash my face afterwards! Idk this is just what works for me to get it all off first
I was going to ask the same. If you're having skin problems, it could be from all the layers of makeup that you're using.

@@Pjzweek6586 oo ok
I feel like the headboard on the wall with the bookcase could maximize the space if you’re looking for that

Try watching a you tube video regarding putting your specific clothes drying rack together.
@@deirdrelupoli7278 lol good idea
Just had a thought about your drying rack. You could put it behind your dresser so it’s flush against the wall.

I leave my drying rack up all the time in my shower. When I need to shower I take it out and then put it back when I’m done.
