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).
Don't worry it will go on sale. At least that is what I am waiting for! Teehee

The gaudy, older ladies have ruined prints for everyone. : lol:
Mmmmm hmmmm. I just have to show him animal prints done the right way. Wink

Quote from leftie :
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)
A way to man's heart is through his stomach ... at least with mine (and a good bra with a hot dress.) laugh out loud

I used to make those every year for Christmas and special occasions until I found a short cut! Southern Plates [southernplate.com] makes them using frozen bread dough and it is so much quicker with just as yummy results (I haven't tried her cream cheese topping.) I still do PW's when I have time but Christmas Eve/morning here is so crazy I find the short cut a lifesaver for me. nod

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :


There is the dress again. I was thinking nude or metallic gold as well!
I like a nude shoe or a brown wedge/sandal. And you lot hot in that dress. Wink

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Have you moms out there gotten anything for your DH's for Father's Day yet?
No and I am clueless what to get him. He just bought a new Iphone and Ipad, I planned to get him the phone so that is out. He is in need of new clothes so maybe the girls will buy their daddy some new clothes. Then he can take me out to dinner on Father's Day. LMAO

Quote from kurips :
i'm returning theruffle front elastic waist dress [express.com]. it's too big for me. i wanted to like it because it has pockets.
That is the dress I wanted in yellow and it was OOS. Now it's showing in stock but only in lg/md. I think I will need a small in this since it runs big. Mad

It's tomorrow. Alvs, I'll let you know if TBS goes B2G2 tomorrow after I get home from the floorset tonight - it's been a while but usually they do it during the sale.

A lot of the bras I saw at VS SAS were cheaper online than in store. I still bought though... Hopefully can do a PA later or will have to sit down and figure out what to return.

how annoying. only 1 bathing suit that i have is actually part of the 20% off clearance, and only the top is still in stock. so i'd save $5 by reordering but then i'd have to deal with returning, and ordering 100 to get FS. i don't think it's worth it.

I went to Express yesterday & tried on a lot of stuff. I bought this skirt http://www.express.com/sequin-str...pro#jsLink in indigo & a top that I don't see online. It was on clearance too. Alvs' favorite dress is very flattering. I'm probably going to order it in white, blue, & green, when it goes on sale again. I'm going to order the metallic ruched dress also. http://www.express.com/metallic-r.../index.pro Express dresses fit me much better than VS dresses. I didn't see the metallic stretch lace dress in the store. It's no longer available online either. I should have ordered it earlier. The cheap skirts I was planning to order online didn't look good on me. I'm glad the FS expired, so I didn't order them.

Speaking of VS, they didn't have hardly anything on sale yesterday. There were a few bras for $34.99 & panties for $6.99. They were probably holding most things back for today. They did have a few full price items that I plan to stalk online hoping for a cheaper price.

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
I think we both (dh and I) like to do things or plan a trip for presents. I have been eyeing an all-inclusive in Mexico, and/or a weekend in Vegas (trying to convince the grandparents to come so we have a babysitter for ds).
My DH & I prefer trips for gifts also. I haven't bought him anything yet. I was thinking of getting him a couple nights at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. I'm still undecided though. I guess it's about time I made up my mind. Embarrassment I hope the grands will help you out, so you all can get away together. We don't live near family either. When our DS got older & didn't want to vacation with us, we drove him to NC to stay with my sisters. Until then, he went everywhere we did. Not having family close by makes it hard to do anything as a couple.

Quote from leftie :
I'm not sure if this is the perfect guy, but I'm the happiest that I've been in a while. : woot: Also, I started my new job today! I'm exhausted, but happy to be gainfully employed again. : D
Congrats on the new guy & new job. I hope both work out for you.

Quote from nerdgirl :
Luckily express doesn't.. Been doing lots of returns there! Today i returned the metallic ruched dress and the sa said 'this is cute! Yay it's in my size too!' And then she remarked how all the xs and smaller sizes are always gone at that store.
Why did you return it? That's on my list to buy. Are you talking about this one? http://www.express.com/metallic-r.../index.pro

Quote from nerdgirl :
i really really love that print. too bad it didn't work for you.
I like it in the blue print too. Let me know what you think about it, if you order it. Kurpee's review makes me think twice about ordering it.

Your short cut is still more impressive than mine. I just send my DH to Panera Bread the night before. Embarrassment

IME, the way to a man's heart is much easier than baking. Wink It has to be the right guy for that to work though. Baking is more advisable, if you're not sure he's the one. laugh out loud

Thanks for filling us in. I want some more TBS sunblock.
