i used to do this too. like if i had the bag i'd send it of course, but if not i'd just put it in a plain bag and throw it in. they can look up the item from the tag anyway.

now since i do more ordering and returning i'll separate by order, staple to bag, etc. i figure it makes it easier for them.
I try to separate and tape the invoice to the item or items it goes with. I hate returning so much stuff, but stuff just fits weird. VS has never given me an issue with a return and I would like to keep it that way laugh out loud

Some fit, some don't. Swimsuits are random. I'm either a m or l up top. The new bewbs are harder to find stuff for but they're worth the trouble!
They look awesome - that is for sure! I hate that the sizing is so inconsistent Frown

Oh that is a good idea!! Totally doing that. I feel bad for returning so much and I guess I feel better when it is organized!

does anyone know howone-piece bathing suit [victoriassecret.com] sizes run? i vaguely remember always buying 8 or 10 in those when i was younger. looks like vs sizes start at 4. are they somewhat tts, or do i have to size up for a bathing suit? it's been awhile since i've tried on a one-piece.

nerdi - i bought the cross-back low-back tank from vs you linked here in s. is yours the same size? this seems a little big on me...or is that the style? i remember they only showed it on the back of the model.

i think it makes me look slimmer OMG i am planning to layer this since i can't be this bare backed and the v neck dips low.

yes, i got the S. it's definitely big, but i don't find the v neck to be too low on me (prob kuz i'm taller). i'm keeping the S bc i like the loose look. i can't figure out how to wear it unless i go without a bra, which won't work with that type of shirt. but nonetheless i'm keeping it kuz it makes me look slimmer as well! laugh out loud i plan to wear it with a bandeau underneath. i think i saw a photo of the front also, possibly in a different color. let me see if i can find it (it doesn't look that big bc they tucked it in)

i got the blue! i love that color (i know you're not as big of a fan of blue as i am, judging from your want to return your blue jeans Coverlaugh). how is the white? is it see-through? i may have to order that one too, and use it as swim suit cover or something.

i just added the blue in xs in my cart and someone snatched it. i like blue. it may have been that white was the only one available when i ordered. it's see-through but no need to think about ordering it because they're oos.

maybe we can work something out. if it doesn't work out on me, i can take a pic of me in it for you and just imagine your body in it (add some boobies and subtract some waist). if you think it will work for you, i can ship it maybe? if you need to return it, i don't know what we'll do :lol : i'm not sure if they'll return it to my cc if you can't present it when you return.
I hope you like it. It would probably be a problem, if I bought it from you then needed to return it. We can discuss it later, if it doesn't fit you. You all have about talked me into getting an Express CC. I would want to get points toward FS, whenever possible. I'm trying to resist, but my resolve is waning. FS on all orders is so tempting. Facepalm

What did you buy? You made me look at the bras again. I guess I'll be placing another order too. Facepalm Is the swim code & FS with $100 the only codes? Do you mind sharing the FS code, if you have it handy. That would keep me from having to search for it. Embarrassment

You look so pretty. Girly Is that one of your engagement pictures? I really like that print. It may just have to add it to my cart. Blush

yeah it was cropped from one of the engagement photos. i love that print! you should def try it.

i didn't resist long before i opened an express cc. the rewards are so worth it. you get more points, and when you get to a-list (which is pretty easy to get to) you get bigger rewards too.
