These fall right off me in a 00. Did I get a bad pair or do they run big?
They run big to me. I got the khaki color in a 4 and I think a 2 would have been better.
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I'd go with beauty on shorts like that. They're fancy!
Good thinking. I'm keeping the 4 and will wear them when I'm not planning on eating too much. They are shorts with a built in diet. laugh out loud

I got that one in the plain black. Its ok - kinda sheer. I'm going to pair it with the lace bonded shorts since the tank is slightly cropped and the higher rise of the short will make sure no skin peeks out.

5"3, I have a longer torso and short legs though. Its not really "cropped", its just long enough but if I lift my arms and I'm wearing low rise bottoms, my belly will show slightly (like 1/4 inch). I really prefer longer length stuff in general though and am really picky with top length, so its probably fine for a normal person.laugh out loud

After saying that, I ordered this "cropped" top to wear under a cardigan and really like it. I think it was $4. I wish it came in a regular length, its really pretty. It probably would have sold out if it wasn't cropped.

wave You were probably out having a good time instead of sitting home stressing out about placing your order before the stacking ends! It was my first time getting in on an Express stacking deal and I found it stressful placing orders because I kept thinking they were going to fix the stacking. And now I'm stressed out about where I going to store the clothes I ordered because my closet is full Embarrassment

I've been looking at Loft recently and saw this cardigan [loft.com]. How does the sizing fit? I'm a S in VS and XS in Express. How's the quality? I'm hoping for better than VS and Express. Any idea how often they do sales? I know I missed the 4th of July sale.

if their sizing is anything like AT, it runs super big. definitely XS, possibly even smaller. i often read reviews for help. at ann taylor i'm 0-2 and almost always xs whereas at express i'm 2-4 and tend towards s (esp lately since their stuff is getting smaller).

from what i've seen, loft quality is not as good as AT. i don't own any of their clothes tho, so hopefully others here will chime in. i think it's likely better quality than express.

I loathe purple. I only own one purple top. I own the cutest ruched peep-toe pumps in purple...because they were the only color left in my size. I keep saying that I will wear them with a black dress, but it has not happened yet. The one and only wedding I will ever be in I had to wear purple/lavender. Yuck!

I have two...Black and Ignited. I am SOOOOOO happy that they have a new panty for the smooth version...the strappy thong. I already ordered it. I need them to make it in red. I also have the smooth in black and red. Hahaha
You and I have the same taste! With exception to purple. Teehee I only like dark, rich purples
Quote from IceyNiki :
Of course after I place an enormous order yesterday, I get an enormous AR card in the mail. I don't even know what I ordered. My life as an addict...
Has happened to me before! I'm sure you'll find something to spend it on!
Quote from GoHeels :
heart purple! Putting it on my list.
You'll love it!

Thanks!! I may have to go in store to try it on. I have been liking extrapetitie's styles lately! Thanks for introducing me. Smilie I bought the Jcrew blazer she recommended on one of her posts on sale yesterday and she had something linked to Loft, so figured I may want to give it a try. Shipping is expensive and not many stores around, so I should probably try in store.
