We did have a good weekend! Only issue was it was too short!! :lol :

I need new bras. I know - scary to say! My old ones are still a little small and I need something for the time being. Ugh. I hate buying bras I won't use for too long, but I need to be comfy and have a good fit!
Weekends are never long enough. shake head

I had to order new bras too, which can get expensive. It would be horrible to only be able to wear them a little while. My cup size never went back down to what it was, before my DS was born. Yours may not either.

I've decided to wait for SAS to try to get a few more bras. Could you hold off that long to get most of them? Maybe order a couple of the cheaper ones now, then buy nicer ones at SAS.

All of my bras are VS too. I am OCD about some things, I can not own underwear or bras from anywhere else. They don't match.
I've been too cheap to order matching panties, because they're always more expensive than the cotton panties. Embarrassment Looking at a new catalog the other day made me want to buy them. Hopefully, I can get some that match my new bras for cheaper at SAS.

How are things with nuSO? and nuCar? laugh out loud

That is what I am here for! Hahaha.

nuSO is good. He was supposed to have his friends over to watch the boxing match Saturday. However, apparently when he called me during my nap, I kept asking what time I should come over to watch the fight. Soooo he did not invite his friends. I did not actually want to watch, but since he had changed his plans I felt obligated. We are making plans for the summer and such. So far so good. Apparently, I am having a dinner party to introduce him to my friends. nuCar is great! The only issue is it has an iPod function so you can control the iPod from the steering wheel instead of handling the iPod when using the Aux function, but no one can tell me what cable I need for it. The owner's manual reads as though the cable should have been in the glove compartment. I was trying to allow them time to get back to me, but I think I will have to voice my displeasure via the survey that they keep emailing me to fill.

We cannot help it that we are VS bra snobs. nuSO does not understand why I have so many bras and panties. #men

I think I have more bras now than I did in my old size. It only took one SAS for me to re-up properly on my bras. #thankful

Whoever needs new bras, hold out for the SAS!!! It is right around the corner. You can do it!!!

I will certainly go into review overload this week. I have so many items to review. UPS is taking so long that I am about to fall asleep. Trying to stay busy until he shows up. I WANT MY PACKAGE TODAY!!!!

I actually plan on ordering a bunch to try on, I need a DDD now OMG and they don't sell them in store. I am going to order a ton and try on what I think I may like...and then when I find what fits well I am prepared for the SAS. I was a DD before the little one, but I am hoping to knock 15 - 20 pounds off the pre pregnancy weight. Hopefully that will *maybe* get me in to a D. If nothing else, I'll be happy fitting in to a DD again with no issues. Ugh. I hate huge tata's. I hate that I was bigger than I was comfortable with before I got preggo too. It's good motivation to work out but it seems like my goal is *so* far away...gah.

laugh out loud i hear ya girls! Before VS I used to wear lily of france. They were THE best bras. Now ever since I've become a VS addict, nothing else compares!
VS bras are well made, comfy, sexy, and just fit good. I can't help but be an addict. My hubby knows I am big on quality over quantity.

I heard they have cute ones! My problem is that I do not feel like I spend real money when I order with VS. I hardly ever pay a bill. I had to pay $40 this month because I did not bother to send in my returns since I owed so little. Had the bill been $$$, VS would have gotten a big box...then no money for them out of my pocket. #mysystem

I go back next Wednesday. I think then I'll be able to wear underwires.

My two packages are supposed to show up tomorrow with two more on Wednesday. Yay!

I am going to try some of the cotton lingerie in a DD and see how they fit, maybe go up in the band size. I hope I can find something without spending a fortune. Grr. I had just bought 5 new incredible, BBV and dream angels bras before I got preggo. Fail!

Glad things are going well with you and nuSO. Ha - so cute he changed his plans for the fight Wink Sounds like you guys are doing well and you are considerate even though you didn't want to watch the fight. That is important!

Can't wait to see your reviews! I haven't bought much lately at all - don't want to buy clothes I like at this size. Don't want to be sad when they don't fit laugh out loud

Glad nuCar is good! I wish my damn car had a stupid aux jack. It's a 2007 Corolla S and they STILL didn't put a damn aux jack in it. I don't feel like doing an aftermarket stereo either. Dumb Toyota. I hope you get your cable figured out soon!

These aren't cute. They're plain grandma looking bras. I only have a few. I have some VS sports bras too, but they're too tight. The boobs don't like them yet.

They're starting to feel more normal. I don't hurt anymore. Just sometimes I'll move a certain way and they'll feel weird. It's hard to explain.

I have wanted an AUX jack since a few months after I had to replace the factory CD player in my old car. The salesman sold me on the iPod function because it is much safer to use the buttons on the steering wheel than to mess with the iPod.

Gold & White Reversible Tote - The cords are not gold. They are white. The tote is not metallic gold. More of a khaki gold. I like that. I could not see myself reversing it to the white side. It looks like it is inside out in my opinion. However, I could also see how it would work for some people. It simply has "Victoria's Secret" in gold on the white side. The tote has to be tied. It reminds of those cloths that mothers use to keep the baby close--swaddles or something. All and all, I like the bag on the gold side. I may use it for the SAS sale and shopping trips, so I can have my hands free to get the good deals.
