Any idea about how much it would cost to ship 2 pair of tennis shoes back to 6pm? I ordered Keds in 5 1/2 & should have gotten a 5. I'm afraid the toes will start to curl up, because they're too long. If returning them will cost much, I may just donate the 5 1/2s. They were a total of $20, so it's not like I'm losing much.
I got my keds in 5.5 too which is my regular size! and i was thinking i maybe should have gotten 6 laugh out loud

there's a new 500 point perk [sephora.com] - too faced naked look palette.
Thanks anni. It went OOS a couple days ago. I'm afraid I won't actually get it if I choose it. I had a 500 point perk substituted before Mad

I have empty philosophy birthday body wash from sephora's last year gift Teehee
I also have face scrub/polish empty container.
I think the face scrub will work.
Also, look at anni's link. That's what I was talking about at Sephora for the 500 point perk. It's BIS.

Quote from annicus :
it usually costs me about $10 to ship shoes back to them. i've found that fedex is the cheapest, if you have a fedex account. (it's free to sign up on their website) it is not cheap tho, but shipping both back should cost less than $10 per pair. i'd guess at $15 for both but i'm not sure.
Thanks for the info. I'll probably just donate them. I wouldn't be losing much, & I'm sure someone could use them.

Quote from annicus :
i always get nude AND black for strapless/etc. i find that i wear my nude bras the most, actually. apparently i have a lot of see-thru clothing that black shows up under.

on the other hand, i almost always choose black undies over nude. :d ontknow:

i have the gorgeous demi. i didn't like the very sexy low front convertible. it was ok, not amazing.

I think I'll try the Gorgeous bra first then. We just need some codes. There's so much I want to order now.Faint

Thanks for the Origins info too. I'll probably order online.

I'm a size 5 in length, but my feet are wide. I ordered a 5.5, so they'd be wide enough. These shoes were plenty wide enough, so I think a 5 will fit better. I went ahead & ordered those, since they're still $10 each. Thanks again for posting the deal. I think I'll really like them, when I get the right size.

Anyone familiar with folica.com returns / exchanges? Am I better off returning this one and buying the Solia or waiting for them to do an exchange even though I used a coupon? TIA!

does this mean you're giving this a bad review, or is this a hypothetical question at this point? Smilie

I got mine, too. I'll review the crimper, but I am determined to eBay my flat iron Smilie

I'm going to a wedding tomorrow. The reception is in a bowling alley. I guess the groom likes to bowl. I don't know what to make of this...or what to wear really. But I do know that I will be putting a pair or socks in my purse...

GH, the dress can be worn anywhere. Restaurant, bar, beach cocktail party. Anywhere with the right shoes! I would totally be all about the stripe one, but it's not in my size Frown. This will be my go-to dress.

wave girlies! Just dropping in to say hi! I feel like I haven't been here in forever! Work has been busy and I'm trying to get ready for vaycay!! Alvsy, I love that pink/orange dress!!! Beautiful! I rarely wear short dresses....otherwise, I would buy it too!! On the other hand, I think I now have every single maxi dress that Express is currently offering. lol This one is my latest acquisition- http://www.express.com/hi-lo-hem-.../index.pro I really didn't need it, but it's so, so, SO beautiful!!! Plus...I've been dieting like crazy so everything seems to fit so well lately, making it way too tempting to buy stuff I can't afford. Oh well, you only life once, right?

Anyways....don't know if anyone has been in store but the angel tote that started yesterday really wasn't all that cute. (in my opinion) There is a cute robe GWP that is starting May3rd, I believe. Free with $75 purchase. I will be getting in on that one! Teehee Hope you all have a nice weekend!
