to settle for something
to accept something less ideal · to choose a less preferred option
What's the situation?
Ever gone shopping with a very specific item in mind, only to find it's sold out or doesn't exist? 😅 This expression is perfect for those moments when you have to pick something that isn't exactly what you wanted, but it'll 'do the job'. Maybe the exact color isn't there, or the size you prefer, but you still need *something*! ✨
