nod Same print! Like you said, it looks really good against tanned skin. I feel like if you wear nude undergarments you should be fine(?).... But I haven't tested how it looks in different lighting...I'm sure if someone looks hard enough, they might see the sheerness of it.

You will love the lace one! Go back for it soon before it sells out bounce
I am! I'll be at the mall a lot this week!

Hey ladies...

Do you remember me telling you that VS had put a shirt in one of my orders that I didn't order? Well, I did add it to the box of returns I sent it. It was the only item returned as a gift, the rest I had invoices for. They processed everything on Thursday, except that. Has anyone had part of their items get processed and then more at a later date?

I don't really want to email about it as it wasn't something I really paid for anyhow, but it seems odd to just not process one item in a box of 15 or so.

TIA Smilie
I might be mistaken, but I think something like this might have happened to nerdicus? I think it was eventually processed quite some time later, but I think I remember it was processed. You might want to ask her just in case Smilie

heart the Gorgeous! I love the bewbs I get from the Very Sexy bras, but the fit "gaps" a bit for me. So far, I haven't noticed that problem with the Gorgeous.



I shop at H&M very frequently....I can see how people either love/hate it. I've been lucky so far in finding decent items at great prices. bounce
Agree on both!

i haven't really worn mine Teehee in general, express skirts are high quality. try one of those that are on sale, then use a $15 off $30 / $30 off $75 coupon (expires today).

comparing the 2 skirts mentioned: zigzag [express.com] and banded [express.com], they are similar in style and length. the fabric on the banded is thicker. i find that it is more forgiving on my tummy bulge.

IMO, any animal print is just fine! Now, with that said...I would never mix prints and I would not go crazy with accessories.
He doesn't know what he's talking about. Bonk I love animal print he just likes to give me crap about animal prints because up north the older ladies he knew always wore them with big gaudy jewelry, toooooo much makeup and they looked ridiculous. So when I bought the shirt he asked if I was ready to hang out with them because I wasn't going anywhere with him in that shirt. Bonk Bonk He thinks he is funny. He is not. Nono

I agree with Kurips. Express skirts are very high quality and much better than F21. They fit like a glove too.

I own this mini [express.com] for date nights ( I love it too) and now I own this one [express.com] too. I love them both. They are thick enough material without being too thick. I'm kicking myself for not ordering the cobalt blue of the second skirt. Kurips is right that the material in the high waisted banded pencil skirts like this one [express.com]are thicker material and but I found the zig zag and diagonal look better on my body. Girly

Oooh...I like the zig-zag one! I have no occasion to wear it though, my new job is very casual (everyone wears jeans). I like the green one too...but I like the blue striped one [express.com]more (too bad it's not on sale).

The gaudy, older ladies have ruined prints for everyone. laugh out loud

Which one? Without knowing...of the top of my had, I'd say nude shoes. Nude shoes go with everything!! (They also will make your legs look a mile long. Girly )

I agree with leftie. Nude shoes would look awesome with that dress! I'm not sure what else would work actually - maybe gold, but i prefer nude.

I do remember you saying you liked the brown striped one better.
Do I sound like your stalker or what? shake head LMAO

Side note: I made *delicious* cinnamon rolls this weekend. Ladies, do not make these unless you want the whole house to smell fantastic. I used Pioneer Woman's recipe [thepioneerwoman.com]. I advise halving it; otherwise, you'll have 7+ trays of carby goodness. (My ulterior motive was to feed them to my new guy....isn't there a saying about winning a guy's heart this way? Big Grin)
