skinny cargo ankle-zip pant [victoriassecret.com], 10 - I love these. I sized up for a roomier fit. I love these for bicycling to go out at night, since they're very comfortable, but still look great. They were pretty loose in the waist, but fine with a belt.
Dream tees open back tee [victoriassecret.com], XS - I sized down for a more fitted look, but it was still huge on me. The arm holes were ridiculously large too. This top didn't work for me at all.
cross-front top [victoriassecret.com], S - Overall, I like this top. It was too small at the bust though, way too much cleavage showing. I would recommend to anyone not overly busty.
cut-out bra top [victoriassecret.com], S - From the picture, I really liked the style of this top. When I opened the package though, I realized it was a halter top that ties... with a REALLY long strap. There's just too much going on in back. Plus it has elastic in the lower part of the cut-out, so it has just enough tug to make it look awful even if you don't have back fat.
velvet one-shoulder top [victoriassecret.com], M - I have been eyeing this top since I first saw it and I love it. By the time I ordered it, they were out of S, so I got M. It still fits pretty well, just a little loose at the waist, but hangs nicely so it doesn't make me look heavier.
sexy little ballerina outfit [victoriassecret.com], M - I don't know what made me think this might fit, but I wanted to try it. I love the look of it, but the cups were way too small and the overall top a little too loose. I have a long torso, so the skirt didn't even come to my butt, much less go over it.
one size sexy short [victoriassecret.com] - I got these to wear under dresses. I was worried they wouldn't fit because I have ample junk in the trunk. They fit well, but once they stretched to the necessary dimensions, they were no longer opaque, so my plan for modesty was foiled.

It would probably work for a majority of people. It is so cute too, it is one of my most disappointing returns. If you decide to give it a try I hope it works for you!

Just realized you added to that. Maybe it will come back in stock with a clearance code. Stranger things have happened.

I'm going to have to vouch for all of the Sexy Little Things costumes. I have too many....but they fit well for me. So I highly suggest that maybe if something you like comes in stock, just give it a try! Smilie

i'm not happy with this hair grabbing thing going on between me and baby. my scalp is hurting and my hair is all tangled up.
have any blad spots yet? I feel like my hair is thinning with all the hair pulling from my 9 month! Mothering is tough work. Pondering going back to work since moving to CA about a month ago ... Must be the "transition" from being a working woman and wearing purdy work clothes and HATING my job ... lol ... to jeans or sweats chasing after a baby!LMAO

I remember those days well. It doesn't take long to get used to them. A word of warning... always eat before going to the Orthodontist or eat immediately after (within 30 minutes or less) on the days they're going to tighten your braces.

Is the nuSO newer than the shoe salesman? We're going to get you married off eventually. Stick Out Tongue
Thanks for the tips. My aunt who had old school braces told me the same thing.

Hahahaha...I could not stop laughing that you called him a shoe salesman. Yes, nuSO is newer than that one. (I got rid of him before I went to Nassau.) I do not know about being married; however, nuSO does want children and to be married.
