why can you not wear it? if i can, you can. i'm all for wearable, practical clothes since i have nowhere to go here but wal-mart!


buy it so you don't regret laugh out loud
i want it, bc i tried curling my hair with herstyler last weekend. it looked good but could be better with a bigger wand. i refuse to order without a code or working mag-rebate tho.

i'm assuming azn doesn't like that style bc she has the opposite body type as us. i'm assuming anything you recommend i would like also! is there FS? i'm not ordering without that.

i plan on returning a bunch of stuff tho. i'm assuming that would lower my points. Sadwalk can a-list be given, then taken away?

very confused by my points. online it only shows 2700 points from my last order. i'm not sure where the others came from... perhaps from the in-store purchase i called in about?

can i get a really old order applied? i think we are keeping the ties i ordered for groomsmen. they're not available in that color anymore.

i think that's only for the premier cc members. i think they can get upgraded but it doesn't have fs.

laugh out loud good point.
i think i'm going to order. even with the $8 shipping cost, i'll be able to get the sweater plus a shirt i've been wanting for about $40, after i return some stuff. i think that's better than going in store. i hate paying for shipping!

... unless i don't like the sweater. Scratchchin

You are very welcome! Happy it won't go to waste. Smilie

Thanks. Now, I really want that ivory top & shorts. Tizzy said that top didn't look right on her though. Sadwalk
Maybe you should give it a try, it might just be my body type that it didn't look good on. nod

I want to go out on a limb and defend the guys that play video games...it's not ALL bad since I'm a gamer myself.
DH is a gamer too. He used to be really into modding games and works with someone on a game he is trying to release. His son moved to Canada and it's a great way for them to keep a bond, they play together a few times a week. Now my 13 year DD plays with them so it's good for all three of them. My younger DD and I aren't good at gaming so we shop. laugh out loud

Quote from kurips :
i ordered this sweater [express.com] last night. i saw it for the first time just last night. in bright jade.

and the cocoon cropped sweater/bolero.
Soooo pretty! I don't know how I missed this one. Maybe because I haven't shopped sweaters since it's a million degrees here already. laugh out loud

Quote from kurips :
sorry i'm very talkative. i'm just very happy that i have no lecture left to do this semester. i need to put together some final exams though.
When are you finally finished? You must be so excited and ready to be done!


Sooooo I have to buy something for my 13 yo DD to wear to an award ceremony. Why is shopping for her so hard! I look at dresses and think too short, too low cut, to trashy.....she is at the age where little girls dresses are to babyish and junior dresses are sometimes a little to teen for her. And what does one wear to an award ceremony anyway????? Help!

i don't think the tier works for clearance. it's just your nonclearance is $40 so it took $15 off of that, not on your clearance. for your returns, if i am understanding you, the sandals will get you refund of (price - $15), and the sweater will give you (price x 0.5). once you receive the invoice, all promos are already distributed to the individual items, and the refund will be exactly what it says as the price you paid for it. in the store receipt, they tell you the refund amount.

i don't have sweater.

i can not say anything about the sizing. i'm really a 5.5 so i just always order the 6 since it's their smallest. they always have room.

you get negative points for returns. i'm not sure how they'll do it with promo. i'm afraid they'll take back the 1000 if you return one thing, or let you keep it if you kept at least one item.
Thanks for detailed Answer worship
DohI think you are right. Tier worked for just sandals , but the clearance sweater got for 14.99 after BOGO so its still not bad I guess Smilie

I called to pm on yesterday's order and their system went down. The CSR guy was relogin into his system and then he put me on hold, he came back and said they all were out of internet for some reason.
I (like to) think I broke Express system laugh out loud

Ah, you know me too well. Yes, I have not yet had the time to use it! I haven't even taken it out of the box yet!!

Anni is right about the sweater, won't work well for me, but it would look good on you!

And you too, know me too well! On point about the Express top!

I felt the same with the Herstyler because I wanted bigger curls. I still like the Herstyler though. It would be good if I needed to do another hairstyle or something. Did you get in on the Amazon local deal thing? I bought it with some credit I had at Amazon.

Ohh that's pretty cool!! Yeah, video games are awesome bonding tools. Especially something like a co-op game or something nod

Normal people would probably not see the difference in the effect of small vs large curling wand. But we are not normal people nod

OK why does VS send out "discontinued" emails so late? I received a shipment confirmation 2 days ago that told me everything I ordered shipped! It even said so on my VS account page.

To make it worse, the item I ordered has been back in stock once since I ordered it and I would have ordered it again had I known they were going to send me an email saying it was discontinued and unavailable later.Frown
