Ahh, yeah, the Satin one would be perfect, because that's not too thick. Mine isn't too thick, I think it's too flimsy. The kimono would be too thin and I would be hesitant to wear to cook or out of the shower. It would be soaking out of the shower, or too thin to wear over PJs
Ohh - thank you for the advice robe queen!! Hehe Smilie I keep my house really cool - how warm is this [victoriassecret.com] robe? If I was only buying one, which should I get?

I don't have any of their thermal robes and because they've all been fugly! because I don't like the texture Hide

I DO have a pair of pink thermal pants because I really need warm pants since I'm always freezing.

Do you have any thermal items? Because I'm assuming it would be the same waffle texture, which helps keep heat in.

The thermal would definitely be warmer than the satin or the kimono robe. I don't know if it would be too warm for you though.

No worries on the PM

If that's the one I've been getting, it also requires a full-priced swimwear purchase and will not be valid until January.

Well, I finally ordered one of the Angel Boucles, and I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it. The texture is significantly different than the old ones. Not bumpy at all--just looks like your basic winter sweater. All while it's soft to the touch, it's very itchy when worn. Oh dear, oh dear! OMG
Thanks for the update, I've been waiting to hear about these. More scratchy ... sounds like they put more wool in it. Bummer Frown

Have you girls seen this article about VS buying cotton for it's panties from a farm with child laborers? TBH, it actually improved my opinion of VS, b/c I had no idea they were trying to buy Fair Trade and Organic cotton grown specifically by female farmers. Obviously something went wrong here, but my overall impression of VS was that they were pretty bad; stripping old growth Canadian forests of trees for the catalogs they fill our mailboxes with and that they don't care about the island of plastic trash floating in the Pacific b/c their shipping bags can't be recycled (no #'d triangle = no recycle for my city). Nice to see that they give a $%&! about something.

Definitely warmer than a Cotton Thermal, but not as warm as one of the "classic" boucles (I live in Chicago--needless to say, I need LOTS of warm sweaters!). It's just okay-looking, in terms of texture, but I don't know why they call it boucle. It doesn't even have that nubby texture of a Chanel wool boucle suit, which what I assume VS was trying to go for in the old ones. I ordered the turtleneck, and I do like the ribbing on the bodice . . . but boy, that itchiness!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just some green tea kit Kat so far. Found this bb cream I wanted to pick up but I wanted to get it on my way back home so I didn't buy it yet. The conversion rate is so low right now that everything in Japan is so expensive.

laugh out loud Were there no new colors available this year? Harhar More robes! Bigeye Do you get rid of the other ones? They take up so much room in my closet, I'm thinking 2 is too many for me . True true.... I liked glitz before, but I couldn't admit to it. I'm embracing my Girly side, after repressing it for so long. Chart House- I haven't been to that one specifically, but I have been to one in San Diego. Good food Eat I'm not sure what they would do with a buffet, but if they have a carving station, I'd hit that. Chart House = Steak house. PS, you're going to freeze your cacahuates off, that sucker is right on the beach (on stilts!) Cold

Do I have to have the plastic bag with the bar code & item no. to return a sweater? I ordered a sweater in L. It was big, but I was thinking I'd keep it anyway. I ending up ordering the same sweater, different color in M & it looks a lot better. So, I want to return the L to get it in M. It has never been worn & the extra buttons are still pinned to the sweater, but I must have thrown the bag away. Can I still return it?

Great SS gifts girls! Whee

Quote from MissDaisy :
the scarf is *back in stock* (there's a work around). so you could get the ruffle scarf + angora gloves for ~$0.74 if you have a $10 SRC. here's how: https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=45987570&postcount=3410
I hope it's still working. I'm going to try now. bounce

Yes you can! I always try to keep the plastic bag it comes in, but sometimes I lose it. I've definitely returned things without the bag before - they can get the item number from the tag.

Boarding soon! Oh and I caved and bought some bb cream. It looks like a match finally! Whee
