Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

Since the Social Threads seem to have been done away with, this is the new home of the VS Social Thread. We talk about everything from VS to Beauty to Coupons to Hot Deals...and of course, our personal lives.


Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!


Please PM everyone who was a part of the VS Social Thread to inform them of our new home.

I knew keeping the whole discount was too good to be true. Blush2
It depends. If you order the minimum to get the $15 discount and you return and your mech total falls under $100, you lose it all. If you ordered up and had the $75 off tier, they drop you to the next level, which is $30 with $150, I think. But, if you ordered a lot like $700 and you retuned $100, you are still above the tier cutoff and you get to keep it

It's a little confusing, but I used to do this all the time and it got too tiring for me so I always go with FS now. Not worth to get $5 back on a $50 dress.

Nm! This is for VS!

Maybe I got a defective one or something. It was really weird, it felt like all the weight was on the straps, which should not be the case, especially in that style. I'm still pretty bummed about it.
that is really weird! that was the only one i liked in the new da demi - the ivory cross-dye. all the others i tried in store did not fit me right - they are a bit smaller and the cups are a little closer together than the old (i looove the old style). i got mine with my braperks earlier this year.

laugh out loud
I just skimmed the quoted portion and saw tiered! I was thinking alvsy must've put in a large order!
I didn't even think to realize Express had tiered until you mentioned now. Those mailers Doh

Speaking of which, haven't shopped since I got the email for Express Next and still don't have my new CC!

IMO, a C is perfect. That's what size I was, before having my DS. Now all bras give me major cleavage, even wireless. I have to be selective with tops & dresses to make sure I'll be comfortable wearing them. Before, I could buy any style & feel comfortable in it.
I'm a 32b now...but a very very small b laugh out loud I'm not that comfortable wearing super padded bras anymore. I'd rather be bustier (all the time) via augmentation. It's a huge decision though, so I will definitely give the idea a few more years to marinate in my head. Stick Out Tongue (I'd also need to save the moolah)

Same! I've been spending since they revealed the Next program, but still haven't gotten my new CC. Don't even bother calling or asking store associates, b/c noone can seem to give a direct answer. I feel like they don't know what is going on. Mad

it could also change after kids, if you plan on having kids. my friend was 32b/34a and currently she's probably 34c-d. she's b-feeding right now so i know it's not permanent, but she's grown a LOT! so if ur planning on kids i would wait to see what ur body does afterwards.

That sucks. I'm glad I don't spend so much at Express anymore. Or shopping in general! I can never be like you and clear so many clothes!!

I'm the same size too and for a while, I thought I wanted enchancements, but I got over it because I can't imagine replacing my entire bra collection and I like being able to be sporty but I don't do as much as you and alvs. I have a dog and she likes to play rough and I can only imagine if I got kicked in the chest! I suspect all my dogs down the road would be like her. I don't have to worry about them getting in the way and love being able to wear skimpy swim suits without looking strange. Yes, sometimes clothes may look better if the top was filled out more, but I am able to draw attention to a thin waist or to the booty to even it all out Smilie personally, I feel like it makes me look thinner overall! But anyway, I agree with Anni, see how your body reacts after kids, if you want them Smilie or just keep thinking and saving Smilie

I hear ya. I like padded bras since I need all the help I can get, but prefer something like the Biofit for hot summers. But. Yeah, I find it uncomfortable when people show cleavage, especially in a work setting! I'm glad I don't have to worry about showing cleavage! Big Grin

I think mine make my waist appear smaller. I've seen girls get them and to me they made them look fatter. They were kind of heavy anyways and they were more like an extension of their belly fat.
