Let us know how that backless dress fits!
And woot about the hats! I got my Bebe hats but had to return the green and white one because it lacked structure but the same one in black and white was perfect Crazy
I feel like I need to check out target now Faint and I feel like I need those fancy hat boxes for storage like in I Love Lucy. Hehe
...

What's the deal with the Breakup code? I've tried 3 PINK bras. None of them qualified for the free tee.



I'd love to know the names, if you try one that doesn't have the vinegar or oak properties.
it has to be heartbreaker bra. i got the demi that was 34.50 (so 24.50 after code). i don't like pushups.
Quote from GoHeels :
I feel so Strong for not buying one, when everyone else was. Really I'm just too lazy to use more than soap & water on my face on a daily basis. laugh out loud I've already have bundle loads of products I don't use. shake head
clarisonic can be used with any sort of cleanser... even soap! laugh out loud

laugh out loud! No, not yet because I was hesitant about the quality so I wanted to wait for a clothing code! Sorry if I gave that impression! Embarrassment

When I order from Bebe, I request gift boxes, so they put the hats in them large boxes, so it fits well, but it's not fancy hat box though!

Has anyone heard of/tried coconut manna or coconut butter? I see it on the vitacost website and I'm wondering if it is as tasty as it sounds.
It's a pain in the ass cuz it is rocksolid. You are supposed to heat it somehow first. Otherwise you cant even get a spoonful out of the jar without brute force.

Also there is a film of coconut oil on top, dont get confused and think that is the manna.

I got my first Clarisonic in 2006 heart It cured my acne. I dont use it much anymore cuz I have these tiny spider veins on my nose and I am afraid of aggravating them.

Tizzy, when I posted earlier, I meant to add that I can tell you haven't been back in FL long. I thought it was cold outside today. laugh out loud

It has to be the heartbreaker bra gh. Its $39.50. Without src you can get it, tee, and panty for around $30. Not the best, but not too shabby either.

I really need to educate myself on wine. Dh loves to buy it so I just leave it to him. I'm too dependent on him sometimes. I should be able to order wine by myself.
Thanks alvs. I should have read the details more closely. Doh

I depend on my DH too much too. The fact that you can is a good thing, IMO. I have a sister who can't depend on her DH for anything. He won't even give her money for food & wouldn't give money for the kids to eat at school or do anything else, when they were young. I can't imagine living life like that. It makes my DH mad that he treats her like that. He told her once that if she left him she & the kids could live with us & he'd help her get on her feet. The kids are grown now & she's still there though. Dontknow

I didn't realize I could use both links. Which should I click on first?

If I could use it like a washcloth in the shower, I might actually use it. I wash my face in the shower, before I wash the rest of my body. Embarrassment

I need to look at the demi too. I didn't realize there was another Whee!

I love the clarisonic. I use it in the am and pm to wash my face. I just put a mild cleanser on it. Right now I'm using the Purpose stuff. I also use it on my body. I use regular body wash for that.

I do too. I still use a washcloth at night when I have on makeup. Not in the morning though.

Everyone is liking the change in me since I have been seeing nuSO. They feel like I am actually participating in the "relationship" (not officially a relationship to me though). It is date night, so we are going to the movies. And he challenged me to dominos!!!

Quote from GoHeels :
Thanks for the info. Blowkiss Do you have the current linen shorts? I'm tempted to try them, because the regular Eva shorts are on back order. I don't want anything that wrinkles badly though. I'll never wear them.
No. I purchased the Linen Trouser Short in Chalkboard last May on clearance. In the Eva Linen Short image (in Lemon Tree), where you see pulls due to the model's hands in the pockets are where you may get wrinkles. Especially by sitting down because my bottoms natural bunch in that area.

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Hmmmm...what else...oh. I am doing much better after my cryo surgery, but it's like being on a realllly heavy period now - but instead of blood, it's like water. I keep feeling like I am wetting myself - UGH! (Sorry for the TMI). I went to the dentist yesterday too. The results weren't *as* bad as I thought, but still not good news. I need THREE teeth pulled! Eek! Doing an implant for one, the other two are the two rearmost molars on the top which I knew about 5 years ago. First two appointments for extractions and implant - $4,000.GreedyGreedy Thats not even counting the root canal, post, and crown I need on the bottom and the post and crown on the top. Man, that is a HUGE chunk out of my shopping budget laugh out loud To say the least!

Icey - Hope your teeth are feeling better!!
Glad to hear your progress!!! My teeth are much better. The top front are a little sensitive still.

Enjoy the single life! As much as I adore my hubby and LO, sometimes I miss the freedom and fun of simple life heart They both have some awesome upsides! (Although I am sure after a week of being back with no one to answer to I would feel LOST!! HAH!)

I need to get my work done soon. I need to work my appointments around a slow week at work. Which never happens. Ugh. Glad to hear you are feeling better though!

Thanks for the tip. What do you use when you exfoliate your face? I've been using the Neutrogena Microdermabrasion System and I really like it! In fact I have to buy more replacement pads.
Your ques wasn't directed at me...I must butt in anyway laugh out loud
Like most girls in here, I have a Clarisonic that I use. I also alternate by washing with Philosophy's Microdelivery scrub. It has these teeny scrubbies which really get my skin clean.

Still on the hunt for something to remove the blackheads from my nose though. The pore strips don't work very well and I don't know of any mask that can "suck" them out. Sadwalk

Quote from azn1x6flame :
Wave haven't seen you around! It sounds like I will be searching for some coconut butter! yummy
Heyy girl heyy!! hug

Quote from Tizzylicious :
I saw this in a quote in GH's post so I had to go back tell you those are some hot shoes! I love a platform! Good job on getting a knock off so cheap!
I love them. Need to practice walking. I'm 5'9'' w/o shoes, so with these on, I feel like a tower. laugh out loud I must work up the courage to "work it."

I've gotten lazy about replacing the brushes on mine.

I forgot to mention this! It's easy to "soften" the coconut butter though. You can put it in the microwave for a little bit. Or if it's hot enough in your kitchen (70degrees or more), coconut butter/oil will remain soft.
