I had this happen. Have you checked your VS online account? My last return made it back to VSD without ever being trackable by UPS..it had me freaking out big time.
Just checked right now, not showing up yet. Oh well, I guess I'll wait for a few more days before I panic. Thanks, hba. Smilie

Quote from azn1x6flame :
I think because I sleep on my back, the mid to bottom gets squished and then mashed and something happens and they look good in the morning! But they fall towards the end of the day since I don't use product or anything to keep it in.

It sounds like your 'do with the rollers was pretty easy to do and looked great Big Grin I, too, was surprised about a friend's comment about my hair, it's nothing special in my opinion.

Thanks for the review, I guess I won't need to get too excited. Wanted to try it in stores.

I would suggest trying putting it up in two buns after washing (half up and half down). I usually dry my roots and then I prepare if I'm going out, makeup, get dressed, etc...while my hair is up so that it kinda dries and sets. If I'm driving myself, I keep my hair in a bun and let it out when I'm at my destination and it has that beachy look. I don't put additional product in it nor run my fingers/comb/whatever through it. Sometimes I do spray it with hairspray.

But my hair still has that problem of falling out because it's so straight. shake head

Thanks! See above comment to GH if you wanna try it during the day. Has the same effect for me when I sleep on it.

About your store return, I freaked out about the same thing too, but like hba said, it will show up. It should be the standard number of days. nod

I'm so excited for the umbrella. Last 2 years I went to a store event, it was chaotic. The lines were wrapped around soo crazy for the tote bag. I think it is also online, based on the mailer that I got today. Atleast that's how I read it.


Welcome back!! Colorado is pretty, but I bet it was freezing!!

Do you have the code for the Umbrella? I saw on Facebook that it was supposed to get to the Angels first...and then K said 2 days earlier, wouldn't that be tomorrow? I assumed it would be on my statement, but then, I don't have a balance so, I don't know if I can see the code :p
Thanks for the hair buns tip! I think that would also give hair some volume in addition to waves. nod BTW, I just remember that you've the exact same hair routine as Zac Efron [stylebible.ie]! laugh out loud He said he wash it at night and then sleep on it too.

Also curious about the umbrella code. Anyone know what it is yet? look around

i'm tired of stalking express to watch out for changes in deals and steals.

i used to wake up in the morning with shiny straight hair (not iron-straight, but nice straight). at some point, my hair lost shine and became wavy and frizzy Mad
eta: i think this happened in the last 3 years. must be part of growing up laugh out loud

Someone (GoHeels?) mentioned quoting long posts. You can always remove portions that you are not replying to...that is my usual move.

I am going to watch this later. I am intrigued.

vs umbrella
I do not want it. Let's see if I receive it anyway...

Quote from longislandgirl :
Wave when does VS umbrella promo start online ? looks like a cute umbrella Girly
VS is a mystery. Last time they had a Umbrella promo, it was different days for in-store and online and it was two different umbrellas. It is beginning in-store for VIPs (seriously, is this what VS calls us???) today and tomorrow. The GP (general public) on Thursday.

Quote from GoHeels :
Has anyone's back ordered beach bag shipped? My order status says b/o until the 3/23. Obviously, that's passed, but it still hasn't shipped.
Mine shipped and will arrive today. Ordered on the 9th, was BO'ed until the 12th, and shipped on the 24th. (Oh, yes...this is the bag I said that I was not going to order. #addicted)

Quote from kurips :
vs must know i have an upcoming trip to the beach Surf
It will be adorable on the beach. I have seen it. Haha

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
We know who VS really loves, and she doesn't even care!
Who???

Quote from kurips :
i like them.
Found one!

It is in stores now. I did not know when it was supposed to be released.

The CC statement did not have a code. Today is the big day for us. If it is available online (which I just assumed when I received my statement even though it did not mention it), we will get an email some time after 3am.

I am totally confused...I thought it was GoHeels. I do not mind when people quote long posts. Sometimes it is a bit confusing what portion they are referring to, but it usually works itself out or I will just ask.

Sidenote: New baby picture!!!!

I've heard of people's hair changing after having a baby.

It is very difficult. Sometimes I just give up and say to myself "I'll talk to them later".

Review:
Mini Skirt [victoriassecret.com]

These arrived yesterday (still waiting on shipment of racerback tanks to go with them). I ordered black and white... I think I'll soon regret ordering white (what was I thinking???)
anyway, I was nervous when I took it out of the bag, it looked too small for me. But when I tried it on it fit well, seems to mold to my shape and goes about 2 inches above my knee. So these aren't exactly "mini" in my opinion because I'm 5'11 with legs a mile long- so I was pleased with the length! The quality is decent with a little stretch to it. I'll definitely keep the black, might return the white...

I watched the whole thing, and I'm wondering why she didn't pass out from lack of oxygen... I don't think she stopped talking long enough to even take a breath during that whole thing laugh out loud

I bet that pink dress will look really nice with her coloring though nod


Due to my new hair cut - I need a new flat iron that doesn't cost a ton. Any rec's ladies?

I've been using Perricone Neck Therapy right before I go to bed and I feel it's making a difference. I have two creases in my neck that I feel are too noticeable/dark? (hate them) and it has def made a difference for me in that area. Plus it's smells ok and I use it under my chin. It hasn't bothered my skin at all either.

I'm also a big fan of remede products, which have made a huge improvement in my face/eyes but I'm not sure that they have one specifically for the neck. I would think many wrinkle/lift creams could be used on the neck as well though?


Hah, reminded me that I still have like 8 "Boob Tubes" to use Big Grin I don't know if it does anything for boobs but I like the way it smells a touch like lemon hehe.
