Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

Def a very cute dress! I'm so glad to hear that it's not see-through either.

This is this . It's hot too. It looks better in person on me than it does in the picture. I normally don't pay full price for vs, but this one is staying!

Dress looks better on you than on the model!

Anyone have this dress? http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss...vsdWrapper I probably need to be looking for dresses to wear now instead of on my cruise, but I can't help myself.


Quote from nerdgirl :
: lol: 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:
Due to your warning, I wasn't expecting that bra to be a favorite. I didn't expect it to make my boobs look like they'd been super glued together though. laugh out loud

Sorry the ANR didn't work for you either. We must have similar sensitivities. My sister, who loves it, doesn't have sensitive skin like I do.

Speaking of skin, I've been trying a new product my DS recommended. He reads up on natural products to aid in healthy living,& recommended I try Neem. It's supposed to help with a lot of things, but I was most interested in the skincare benefit. I've been taking the capsules http://www.vitacost.com/vitacost-neem & using the neem soap http://www.vitacost.com/comparePr...s%26ss%3d1 for a couple weeks. My skin is noticeably brighter. I haven't changed anything else. So far, I'm really happy with the results.

Quote from Tizzylicious :
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 :
I think the difference is the JCP tankini comes in one length. The VS push-up tankinis come in 2 lengths. It's hard to find a length that works for everyone. The JCP tankini is made to fit the avg. person perfecting, & I'm shorter than avg. If the one from JCP is the right length for you, the regular length in the one from VS would be too short. It appears they're intended to show a little stomach, but it covers my stomach just enough.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Here is the dress in white!


sorry it needs to be ironed :lol :.
You're making me want to order that dress even more. Have you tried it with the straps? I'm wondering if they give added support. I don't feel comfortable in strapless tops or dresses, but the straps could make a difference.

Quote from nerdgirl :
they're eggplant purple (tho very dark - not sure if you saw the shade when shopping for yours. same company). i thought they grey might be nice vs the white to go with the more casual look (their suits won't be 100% matched, dresses are different). but i really have to see it i guess... thanks!
. ..
Ah yeah- I know that purple. The grey will look much less stark if it works out Smilie Speaking of grey.... Oh how I wanted the grey shoes ! After everyone threatened to abandon ship, the bride is now buying shoes. She's picking out a different pair for each BM (so they're an equal amount of different and the same Crazy ), and they all look to run about $60-70... I tried to tell her that she need not buy them for us, just pick them out so I can stop Head Bang , but after everything we've been through, I didn't put up too much of a fight Wink
Quote from GoHeels :
. . . 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
. . .
EEK! Wow, that's a bad bra review! I don't think DH has ever said to return a bra. I'm pretty sure he's just happy to be judging them. laugh out loud

...DRESS PIC...
This one! I have all the colors now!
Dang, that is cute and sweetheart neckline is killer for C > tatas. I want that dress now in green. I hadn't realized this until now, but it's going to be so nice to read your reviews now that you've joined the big boob bonanza! You're like my personal fit tester. You're going to save me so much time and disappointment! worship

I try it tomorrow with the straps and let you know. They're thin spaghetti straps. I imagine they will add a little support but not much.

I just got krusty's shirt! I love it too!
i went to the city by myself today! i saw this shirt in s and tried it to maybe exchange my xs but it is way too big! i'm keeping my xs. also tried the fringe tank in xs (i ordered the s online and thought it was big), it fits better but i decided not to buy since it shows off more than i'm comfortable with.
