RETIRED The Official VS, Beauty & more Thread

what is this pinterest thing? anyone want to invite me so i can see?
(i entered to be on the waiting list, but i'm not a patient person )

Thanks about the stretching ideas. I usually like to sit on a chair with my knees tucked under my buttocks. I've done it for years because it's so comfy. I have a feeling that's part of the culprit too..

I am thinking that some new bra styles/colors should be released soon, but I do not keep track of that (surprising) because I do not usually buy bras at retail pricing. I am going to wait closer to the end date.

I think they just released it for spring, but very ho-hum for me. It seems like neons are in, I don't like neons. I have until end of May for bra perks, so I think I will just wait, maybe they will release some nice ones for summer.

They just released "it"??? What is it? I think I need to step away from the computer. I am out of it this morning.

It = New bra colors!

About the knees, that's probably why. How lame. Le Sigh. I need to stop sitting like that!

I read on yelp that someone said to book 6 months in advance, but yours is in the fall? So that's over 6 months?! I guess more pressure to book the right date, or ASAP. What about the regular artists? Eek! At least now I have a good reason to put pressure on DBF, or push the wedding back a year

Hm..I hope I get grandfathered in too! But I don't use Express too much...

In the bedroom !

And by the by, I like shopping on weekends! Sometimes I wish my real life friends enjoyed SD shopping like I do

Ugh! that's nuts, it just keeps getting crazier. I hope it turns out well, though. And I must comment about your creative skill - amazing!

. . . i think i will visit her studio and see if they can work something out - it's actually really close to me and not far from the venue so i could technically go to her studio and get it done. (i'm getting desperate! haha)

I don't know if Kelly Zhang [kellyzhang.com]is booked and/or if you've looked at her. My friend used her and I'm planning on using her and omg, it looks like she does a wonderful job for a decent price. She's probably booked, but maybe not one of her regular artists. I like the fact that they work with Asian features and she's like right there in your hood. The before and after pictures are crazy! Can't believe some are the same people!! But I've read some reviews and it seems like she works with what you want, versus some, that make you into what they think you should look like

I have seen the kabuki style brush in a different set [walmart.com] at the store. Yes, it looks tiny. I just wonder how people can get a good grip on the brush while using it. Or maybe I don't know how to use it. I'm still looking for another set to use my last coupon on!

What bra did you get in store? My store barely has anything and I'm not feeling this season's styles...I wish they'd have some nice stuff!

Fair warning on the MUA thing- you could get a bad result if you do end up getting "squeezed in". I got the primo people in Santa Barbara, but was squeezed in. It was a bad experience for a few reasons. They were rushed, it felt rushed too and that pissed me off b/c I think my hair and MU was $500?! They didn't like being there and they didn't contribute to the mood at all, unlike what I had seen in getting ready pics from other brides where they're all laughing, having a good time. The up-do was much tighter than what she had done the night before- I was scared to ask for it to be loosened up... and for good reason apparently- she threatened to charge me $150 for a re-do. I said fine, but that all I wanted was what she had done the night before in the trial run. Luckily my MOH caught the cue and chimed in agreeing with me- so they didn't charge me. They left, I put the dress on and then when it came time for the veil- none of us could get it in. We called for some help (they were in the hotel doing other brides) and they didn't respond until 15 minutes before ceremony time. The owner of the business did me, her assistant did my B-maids. Long drawn out explanation just to say that getting what you want, may end up not being what you want. The 'do was beautiful, but if I saw that b* on the street, I'd punch her in the face.
