I also don't like it, when the people he plays against online think we're interested in hearing their private conversations. They use a microphone & I have to listen to their colorful language that I'd rather not hear. Although, we did get a good laugh out of it a couple nights ago. Some guy was playing the same love song over & over. After about the 3rd time, we were cracking up. Rofl2
LMAO! I hate that too. DH and his son do private party with friends so you can only hear those in the party. They play Battlefield. Before they would do that we heard some wackos on their mics. The young kids are the worst!

Quote from GoHeels :
It sounds like we may have similar body tops, except you probably don't have the belly I have. : O I'm afraid that top would look the same on me as it does on you.
You can always give it a try worst case is you return it. Smilie

Quote from GoHeels :
It's great that your DH can interact with his DS from so far away. Technology can be a great thing. It's good for the kids too.
I agree. He can also interact with his sister so it is really keeping them together.

Quote from GoHeels :
How about a cute sundress for your DD? As long as it has straps, it shouldn't look too old for her. I'm sure she wouldn't even look at dresses that are too young for her, so that shouldn't be an issue. :lol :
She liked this one [express.com] but how can I buy her that when I want it for myself?! laugh out loud

Quote from GoHeels :
I just got a VS order. One of the items was supposed a clearance BBV bra in Berrylicous w/Embellishements. What I received was an ugly cotton bra in black with Victoria's Secret written all over it. : annoyed: Strangely, the label on the plastic bag appears to be for the bra I actually ordered. : confused:
I would be annoyed too! You wait all that time to get your purchase and you receive the wrong thing. Mad

Is it tomorrow that we can use code PANTY for a free pair of panties? I'll wait until then to place my clothing order, if it is.

I just recently got a cami that is suppose to be pink but it is beige, the bag says the right thing.
They seriously need to get their act together. shake head

It's nice that some people are considerate of others & don't make everyone listen to their conversations. The friends method is a good idea, but my DH doesn't have any friends to play with. The worst part is they aren't chatting with others who are playing. They're talking random stuff to the people in their home. I don't really care what some random woman is picking up at the store or need to know who hasn't mowed their lawn.

You'll get that dress, because that's what we moms do. Smilie

I hope they still have the bra I ordered in stock somewhere in the wearhouse. It's really pretty. I definitely don't want the one they sent.

This is what I bought at Express today:

Ikat Dress in White [express.com] <- cute for going out. A little see-through though...then again, I was wearing bright blue undies so that could be it. laugh out loud I will test it out with nude undergarments later.

Striped Dress in Indigo [express.com] <- love this! Very nautical style. The only thing is, the stripes don't line up very well on the side seams...I'm trying to fight the OCD on this.

Knit Mini Skirt in Black [express.com] <- Alvs, this is def. very cute! I will prob. go back and get the other 2 colors later. Cool
oooh, i should consider that mini skirt.

How can I get a good deal at Express? It's so frustrating trying to put an order together. Head Bang I'm having to pay full price for the $60 items & getting both $30 items 1/2 price. I just can't make myself do that. laugh out loud Without FS, I can't place separate orders. Please tell me there's a better way to order that doesn't require going to the store.

Little miss practical. Girly Hopefully, some of that will rub off on me.
The best way is if the items are close in price, and your total is close to tier. Yup, it drives me crazy putting together an order too!

Yahoo! for being practical... for vs sd girls standard, i don't know if that really means anything.

I can't wear the minis at express k. Your sexy skirt was too tight for me at the waist, but a tad loose in the hips. Guess i have a bigger waist than you in comparison to hips.

Oh also, tried in your sweater. I like it a lot! They only had black, taupe, and cream in store so i tried the taupe and black. I was surprised i liked the taupe more than black. Black was a bit metallic/shiny and would be more dressy. It'd also work with a colored tank underneath. I originally wanted the aspen green but not sure now! Haven't placed my order yet.. Am i sol on the bonus points? Maybe i should have bought some socks for the bonus points.

you still have an hour to get bonus points today.

the skirt is probably not as fitted as it should be on the hips for me either.
what size sweater worked for you? i ordered xs.

eta: i ordered bright jade, my 2nd choice was the aspen green.

I ended up getting some mens socks for the bonus. Originally i had grabbed enough to use the 15 off 30 but then 1 color rang up clearance 4.99 so i just got 4 pairs of those instead. I got 4 in case we decide to use them for wedding - they're purple and teal.

Got my neutrogena bzzkit today! Such great stuff in it! Smilie

Oh, i tried both s and xs for the sweater. They both work, tho i think xs is better. It's super long tho, and a bit fragile. I was scared I'd somehow snag the sweater with my ring or something.

I didn't like it when I first tried it on b/c I wore it around my hips and it looked weird (my badunk made the hem flare out). Then I tried it again and pulled it a bit higher to my natural waist and instantly, it was better.

The material is nice too! Not too thin, but not as thick as the knee-length/bandage style Express skirts. It will be great for summer.

Quote from Taryn :
Hey, do you guys remember the limited edition summer perfume, Very Sexy Now Beauty of Brazil, that VS released about 4 years ago? It's a little spicy, coconutty... Is there a dupe for that fragrance? I've been looking. The VS EDP is ridiculously expensive on eBay.
Quote from leftie :
I remember that one! It had a square, faux-wood magnetic cap, right?

I haven't found a dupe for it. It was such a great summer fragrance.

//edit// OMG BIN on ebay is $98!? EEK!
That is my favorite VS fragrance EVER. I only wear it for special occasions...hoping one day VS will bring it back.
