Oh, that reminds me that I wanted the gorgeous bikini! I still have a $30 RC I haven't spent. Maybe I'll go today to treat myself...if only I haven't been too busy to go to the gym... I can't decide which color I think is prettiest. I'm pasty white with bright red hair and freckles. Which color do you think is the prettiest? Does anyone have the gorgeous bikini? Do you like it?

I did feel the Gorgeous in another store I was at last week, but I forgot to try it on. The padding isn't as soft as the bra. I've always been against swim tops with an obvious push up, but the blue and green combo..I can't stay away from it, I've been looking for a combo like that since 2004. Faint But I'm still on the fence about a push up, rather try in store first.

I think that a darker color would look good for you. Maybe the berrygloss because I'd assume that would be nice contrast to your skin. Or anything green. The black and white should be nice for you as well. The spa floral might be nice

I'm so jealous of you ladies in CA that are able to stack! I don't have very many this time, but it sure would be nice to use them all together : )

Also, I just learned that I won a travel grant. I'm pretty nice. It's exciting that people are actually starting to recognize my work. I just hope this continues...
Congrats on the grant. I'm excited for you. woot

I got the Fabulous! I thought I wanted one in the blue lagoon, but I just stuck with black & loving it!
I like my Fabulous bra too. I love the vibrant colors. It's fun. bounce

Quote from annicus :
it's a gorgeous color. i've always loved bright blue tho.

as for sizing, i'm usually a 2 in vs pants, tho some have been tight in that size. i got the shorts in a 2, and they're perfect/a bit loose. (i hate my shorts tight so i consider the looseness perfect!) HTH!

the 3.5" length is a bit short on me but definitely not a SHORT short, if that makes sense. shorts/skirts tend to look short on me kuz my thighs are longish (i'm 5'6 and they're probably the longest part of my body). i actually think they may be ok for you. the 5" will probably be very modest, but i have no idea if they will be too long. i would suggest trying both if possible (do you still have that return label?).
Thanks for the info. You're probably right that I should order both. I hate returning stuff, but I do still have a free returns label. I probably need to try a 4 & 6 too. Now, I just need a good clothing code. (We need a crossed fingers smilie.)

me too!

Are they really strict at VS about stuff that doesnt have a price tag? I got a beauty item and the UPS sticker must've fallen off. I dont have my receipt either.

I saw a woman exchange PJs she got online in-store at Xmas. So they arent all that strict it seems.

For beauty, they are DEFINITELY not strict. You will be absolutely one with or without the sticker. No one else sells VS perfume.

A couple times before, when they didn't take items back in the store for online, I bought a perfume as a filler just so I could exchange it in the store.

VS has cancelled 3 of my back orders in the past few days. All of them are still back ordered, but available for purchase. Anyone else have this happen lately? I hope they can tell who cancelled them. I don't want to get flagged for having a lot of cancellations.

I'm glad you all got in on the Target bag. woot

Thanks for the bag link!

Are you sure that the item in the size and color is will available? They've cancelled my BOs before because the color was OOS or something. This was a while back. I'm thinking they know they won't get the stock, so their inventory was deducted, but there was lag in updating their site.

I hope you get your items anyway!

They're probably just being crazy. Are they canceling entire orders?

I have found that with beauty items, they are more lenient. I have returned mists without the sticker on the bottom and have had no problem.
