it might help a bit, but they'll likely still not work well enough for you. try the racerback - that one is better! i have trouble with the demi straps falling down sometimes (but i heart the incredible demi - it's my "padded" bra laugh out loud bc it's more padded than the angels demi) but the racerback corrects that. it also fits tighter than the regular bras around the bottom.

Alot tighter.

it expired a week or so ago. i was counting on that too, and didn't realize it had expired.

SAS clothing prices are still the same as their "sale" clothing prices! I guess I will wait to order in June to get the PBOS.

It is lunch time, and I have NO desire to go anywhere. I don't want to deal with traffic.

yeah... if you look closely they don't advertise the clothing as part of clearance tho. they are 'sale' clothing. does that count as SAS? either way, i placed an order due to the gc's burning a hole in my pocket. laugh out loud

i bought those stride rite shoes when ds was really little. there is an online measuring thing on their site you can print out. you may want to go to a store to get them measured for the 1st time.

Speaking of strapless bras, are any of them cut closer to a demi? The top of the cup on the Biofit 7 way shows under 2 of the strapless dresses I've tried. You can see the bra above the dress.

Quote from Cheapeats :
I live in Jersey City but I still can't really afford to shop.: lol: Anytime I go out I just hop on the train and I'm in NY in 4 minutes. I used to take a cab around NY all the time and then I realized that being in the cab make me tense because of their crazy driving and the backed up traffic. Now I'm all about the walking and the subway but it makes it even harder to keep my makeup in place when it is warm.

It would all be so much easier if we didn't know how nice makeup could make us look.:lol : Now that we know we can't possibly give it up!

I don't know if I would go lighter or darker for the foundation. At the counter they tried both Shell Beige and Bronze on me. I probably should have gone to another counter somewhere else to see if there was a match for me that the girl just didn't think of but since it didn't cover my acne scars that well I didn't bother. I had a good amount in samples and I mixed it with other foundations and it did manage to stop my skin from getting so oily. If you have nice skin and you're just fighting humidity it will probably be really nice.

I talk too much. Every time I reply it ends up being paragraphs.: O
Chat away. Smilie Most of us talk a lot, especially me. laugh out loud I agree about wearing makeup. My sisters say everyone tells them they look better w/o it. I tell them people are just trying to make them feel good, & they want to believe it. I'm a nice sister, huh? Stick Out Tongue IMO, everyone looks better with well applied makeup. Over applied makeup is a different story.

Quote from nerdgirl :
i got the same mystery gift as gh - the oil and the lip quench (2 gifts in 1 order). my oil had spilled all over the bag it came in (thank goodness it was in its own ziploc bag tho!). my invoice is oily also. :annoyed :
I hate when products aren't sealed & packaged well. One of my orders had both freebies & a sample packette. The other only had the lip product. I guess it depends on who packages it.

BTW, did you see my question about Double Wear foundation? Should I go with a little lighter or a little darker?

Quote from kurips :
why are yall assuming my sons are nerds? :g lasses2: dh is only 50% of their make-up :rofl2 :
My DS is very different from my DH & me. Though, he is more like his dad. They may not end up being a lot like either of you.

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
Can I just say I am over family dramatics? Mother and sister both! Nothing nice to say to anyone, need to let it go. Sigh. Anyhow ... let's go shopping! (scanning yesterday's thread for something great!)

PS I went to F21 and the super cute dresses didn't look so good on me. On the hunt for something new!
I'm sorry you're having family problems again. I can't imagine how hard that must be. hug

Quote from teenbean :
Thx! I might actually read this one.


My sister is driving me crazy! She is getting married in December, and really didn't start planning the wedding till last month. She still doesn't have a reception hall booked. She is having us buy matching petticoats and then wants us to go to the park after the wedding to get pictures done. This is December in Wisconsin! We will freeze to death!
Does she realize everyone may not be looking their best after the reception, especially the little ones & the drinkers? If she's planning to go to the park between the wedding & reception, she will have some very ticked off guests. People don't like to wait a long time for the bride & groom to show up. Just some thoughts for her to consider. Smilie
