Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

I'm with azn, Secret Embrace seems to stretch out pretty quickly. I think you're supposed to hand wash them only, but I wash all my bras in washing machine with lingerie bags. The straps also irritate my skin. Overall, I wouldn't recommend them.
I hand wash all my bras, including that one, but it sucked, stretched out soo quickly!

VERY nice! Quite large though, but I bet you have lots of shiny things!

I have used UPS label from one order to return some items, can I use the USPS label from the same order for another return order? Anyone ever tried it?
Yes, I used to do it. You will be fine nod

Wow, I had no idea. So, we can double-dip on the free returns? That's awesome! I'm going to have a lot to return. It's probably better, if I don't send all of it at the same time.

Speaking of returns, I almost forgot to post that I got return emails from VS today. That was a really nice surprise, since I was expecting it to take 3 weeks. woot

Yay! Money!

I don't know about the free return labels, but I'd assume so. I used to use regular return UPS labels/USPS labels whenever I needed to returns something. I kept a stash and threw away new ones that would come to me. So essentially, what label I would be using may not be the one that the order originated from.

I was thinking about that when I sent in a return a few days ago. I wonder too. IT wouldn't hurt to try.

Do you have the Sexy Tee bras? How do they hold up in the regular wash?
I know you didn't ask me, but I have several. They have held up really well for me, especially when they revamped the material in the last year or so. I wasn't sure if it could support my size, but they are great and are 3rd on my list of bra styles that disappear well under tops. 1) BBV full coverage (just as annicus said earlier) 2) Angels smooth 3) Sexy Tee. They feel a little thinner- but they hold up! I think your friend will be happy if they fit her particular shape.

Do the $10 off bra codes ever work with the Sexy Tee bras? I haven't had any luck getting them to in the past.

I don't go to the mall often. It's easier for me to do returns from home than to send my DH to the store. He'll do it, but I have to explain the whole process. It's much easier to do it myself. Before I got the free return label, I had stuff I ordered in October that hadn't been returned. I've sent in one return & will probably have 2 or 3 more. Embarrassment I love it, when they offer free return labels. bounce

Not in my experience because that's already considered a special or something

Phew. Good. She just bought it recently last month, so it should be good. I bought my first Sexy Tee push up last month too and I was surprised at the good fit and nice material!

My go to is still the Biofit! My regular rotation still include old BBV uplift and other cotton/Angel/Very Sexy lines. Never going to wear 99% of them for a long time!

This was my new favorite, until they stopped selling it in my size. Annoyed
I found the BBV wireless [victoriassecret.com] in your size in the SAS catalog. But it's only in basic colors and most of them are BO'ed.

Good to know they didn't stretch out because of my laziness. Big Grin Where do you find the time to hand wash all of your bras!? worship

laugh out loud Sunday is my laundry day. I even hand wash some of my clothes that have darker colors and may run! I will admit I do get lazy and I just throw them in the wash once every blue moon
