Thanks for the review! Should put this on my list now.

What the?! I looked carefully this time since that whole entire Smashbox lame non-reading email thing. And this is what I got [sephora.com] I don't see it ANYWHERE. There aren't even terms sent with my email. That's what I check too for the code.
omg HOW WEIRD!!! mine is just like that, except in place of the 'coming soon' bar it's the vib gift!! you're right, they ARE sending out different emails!

Tizzy, I got the tankini from JCP, along with another tankini there. The other one is going back. It was cute online, but it doesn't look right on me. The one you recommended fits the same in the chest area as the VS Push-up Tankini. The VS tankini is shorter & more form fitting. I would have liked the one from JCP to be a bit shorter & tighter in the torso. It sticks out on the sides where the bottoms tie, which wouldn't be a problem if it was shorter. I really like the color & style in the chest area. Plus, my DH liked it on me, so I'm keeping it. I also tried on the knockout bra for him. He shook his head & said, "that ones not good." He usually tries to talk me into keeping everything, even things I want to return. (I have a habit of liking things less at full price, but he talks me into keeping them.) The fact that he immediately said to return that bra is a pretty good indicator of how it looked on me. laugh out loud

:nod : I refuse to pack more than 1 day ahead because what if I need one of the items I'm carefully packing away?

GH, my recipe was a dud so I won't put you through that torture! oewiz's recipe looks good though...but I have no patience for yeast right now. :lol :
That sounds like a good reason for delaying packing to me. laugh out loud It sounds better than the real reason I do. I'm a professional procrastinator.

I've never made anything that required I start with yeast. This should be interesting. It doesn't sound too hard though. I guess I'll find out Sunday.

I need help making a decision girls. I can't decide if I should buy a purse that I've wanted for a while but it was expensive so I bought a similar purse last week! Now it is much cheaper because of the Endless.com sale, or if I should be logical and get a new ipod because I really need one.

The one I don't get will have to wait a while because I'm on a budget.
It sounds like you really want the purse. I'm not that into purses, so I won't vote. Stick Out Tongue

laugh out loud that bra pushes up too much for you, i'm sure! i'm going to wait for them to release others with that same wireless wire.

oh also, i thought i'd report here that EL ANR didn't work for me either. i had been having awful breakouts on my chin and i finally pinned down 2 new skincare items that were causing them. the ANR was one of them! so now, i have to go back to bloomies and exchange my ANR for something else. Doh i really should have thought this through, and i really shouldn't be trying so many new things before my wedding! Facepalm

You've both talked me into them. Teehee

Skecher's Settlement

Kurpee and others that bought Skecher's Shape-ups, Tone-ups, etc here's another settlement for you! They will refund your purchase price.

Thread with info
I have a pair. Not sure if I have any proof of buying tho. shake head


Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I haven't used it yet! It looks like a shade for me too!

I think I'll use more of these than the naked 1! I don't think I'll used busted and blackout, but all the others look like good everyday shades!
Blackout is one of the reasons I wanted it. I love that it is so black. I think it would be great for a smokey eye on the outer edge. Makeup Geek did a couple looks with that I liked a lot.

I'm not even going to try the Knockout. Sorry the JCP didn't fit you right. I wonder if this season's are different from the one I bought? At least you found some from VS you love. I guess I should give them a try since they are better than the JCP. bounce

Also, does anyone know of any good coupons/deals for the maybelline tattoo eyeshadows? I know Ulta has buy 2 get one free. Is that good?

If you have a CVS near and some time, check the displays where new makeup products are. I found a tearpad Q for $1.00 off on the new maybelline display. I took a few and am waiting for a deal like 40% off maybelline at a drugstore.

I just got the white dress and it isn't see through. I took a pic. I'll post it later. It's a great buy. It's hard to find white clothes that aren't see through at express prices.

Whee I just got my Express order too!

Debating what to wear tonight...

Striped Dress [express.com] - had to repurchase this one in Celestial Blue b/c the XS fit me better. Too bad the Indigo is all sold out b/c that one looked much better in person and on!
