Quote from PordaPoddy :
VS Reviews. . .
Key-hole lightly padded bra top :
[victoriassecret.com]Size M, coral kiss. Quite snug in a size M, especially for someone used to buying size S. It's supposed to be tunic length, but it falls a little short of that, more like a slightly long tee. The top part can be played with for more or less coverage. . . . .
. . .
Revisiting this review. I should try things on twice and not just when I first get them. This top is a true tunic length if you pull it down- I guess I was over-ruching it? The torso is slim fitting, but the band for the support bra feels more loose than either the eyelet halter push-up or the draped top. Now it's a Maybe...
Thanks dudette
Quote from kurips :
pa is one-time... not sure if it's one-time per receipt or per item.

40% off has been the highest. i think alvs mentioned before, that they went 50% years ago.
Thanks for the answers hug
Quote from aJoLLyDork :
My SA didn't look at my receipts that closely, but I was within my 14 day adjustment period. You can always try.

Did you just move to So Cal? I thought you were in the midwest...
Scratchchin OK, I'll give it a shot, it would only be for 2 bras, the rest I'm returning. Thanks for the info!

Nope, always lived in SoCal Cool Moved to the LA-area last year. I do talk about the Midwest a bit because just about all of both DH and my relatives live in IL (both), WI (mine), and MN (DH's)
Quote from red333 :
I'm not too well-endowed. I'm right between 32C and 32D for bras. I didn't have any problems with support, and I wore the red one all day yesterday. The large waistband sits right below the bust, so it works better than other shelf-bra dresses. So, with the large waistband and the fact that I can make the top halter tight, I was okay. I also can't wear those shelf-bra dresses without an extra strapless.
Good to know, thanks for the extra info hug I think I'll give it a go. You're only 1 cup below me, so you probably know- these things can weigh a lot and while I can "get by" with some tops, I don't want to do that too often. My SIL has some nasty stretch marks across her fun bags, probably because she puts them on display but never with any support.
Quote from GoHeels :
You might as well go ahead & get the Express CC. They made me cave, & I haven't used CCs in years. I've been obsessing waiting for them to put the charges on my card, so I can pay it. The thought of paying interest kills me. I keep worrying they'll post it right before sending an invoice, & I won't get it paid in time. I wish the money was charged, as soon as you order.

I'm a total wimp. It gives me nightmares to see a snake on tv. I have to cover my eyes. My DH tells me, when I can look again. Blush I don't plan to get close enough to one to scare it. laugh out loud I blame one of my older sisters. She & her DH took me to see Rattlers, when I was young. All these years later I still keep an eye on the drain in the shower. What were they thinking taking someone so young to see that movie? Bonk
Wow, that made quite an impression on you! I've never seen that movie, but with that review I never will Coverlaugh When I was 4 y/o, my babysitter put on Poltergeist. People just don't think shake head

With the Express CC... I know I should ditch my Macy's store card or VS. Express just makes sense from that FS perk and that they sell Men's clothes. I think I'll make A-list in a week or so, and will not have the benefits. That might just push me into doing it. Embarrassment

I just ordered the METALLIC RUCHED STRETCH LACE DRESS http://www.express.com/metallic-r...3ae2d6b451 in a size 6. I don't think you all said to size up on this one, so it may be too big. I was so excited to see it pop up in clearance that I had to give it a try. Maybe, if I keep stalking the site, a 4 will pop up. Teehee

ETA: ayoungpretender, do you think this dress could be altered fairly easily? (If that picture disappears, it's similar to this dress. http://www.express.com/metallic-r...crumb=true) I got it for $23.99. If a 4 doesn't pop up, I want to try to get it to work.

That was when drive-in movies were still popular, & there was no age limit. My sister had a habit of sleeping through movies, so they drug me & my other sis along to watch the movie with her DH. They took us to whatever was showing on Saturday night. We were probably 8 to 10 at the time. shake head

Dump Macy's. We don't talk about deals there, so you won't be as tempted. laugh out loud I don't have a VS CC, but they're perks are easier to pass on. FS is the reason I bit on the Express CC. I'm loving being able to buy a clearance item, when it pops up & not having to worry about shipping. woot

Yikes about the SIL. I should have also mentioned that the bra has padding in it that sort of keeps everything together with the high waist. I always feel so uncomfortable unless I'm properly supported. I have these sticky push up bra cups that I usually wear with super low dresses or backless dresses. I didn't even need to wear them with this dress.

AND, you should get an express CC. I finally caved, and I'm so glad that I did. I mean, if you think about it, they probably send about 5 $15 codes each year...so that's like 5 free shirts right there...plus all the fun of sale shopping Smilie

...but I do love my VS and Macy's cards as well. Those are the only cards that I have, though I'm starting to think the angel's card isn't as useful as it used to be.

I would be scared to alter something that's gathered like that, since there are so many ways it could come out horribly wrong. That's really pretty though, I hope you can get it to work for you. I bet it's pretty flattering on a lot of body types too.
