have you tried the stella skyscraper? i didn't notice they have them available in short lengths now until right after the last coupon expired. they look like skinny/legging fit but with leg opening to accomodate heels. i don't do heels, but still i'm interested.
Never bought any. I'm not into their jeans as much as you. I only have a few pairs Hide. The cut seems cool. I may try some!

The ones I buy last longer than express. I justify the extra cost that way.

ShopNow- I caved in and bought the Essie enamel. It is so pretty.

I need to find a new pedicurist. My former nail shop is dead to me. Last time I was there, a woman split my toe nail. How the f___ do you do that??? I was going to just begin going to the spa I already patronize, but the turnover is ridiculous. The best pedicurist left. I also do not like that it is a toss up who will be there. Do they not have a scehdule? The last two times I went the person I booked was not there. The last time was it for me. The pedicurist was so unprofessional. Her dress was too short. She was loud. And she did not do a good job. I could have done better. The struggle continues...

Even though I have been off work for days, I have not shopped. Yea! You all are helping because I just cannot get into Express. I feel like I will definitely see other people wearing what I buy from there. And that is a big pet peeve of mine. (Express is super popular here. And the age range is so vast...from 15 - 40.)

I want to clean, but I do not want to strain my back.

What is the best deal express usually has on dresses? Is it 30% off? I guess depending on how close the dresses are in price, it would be B1G1 50%. Have we seen a promotion like all dresses 40% off or anything like that?

Or specifically B1G1 50% off? I'm trying to decide if I should order more dresses that I like...I have a total of 4 that I want...hmmm...

I hate the new Paypal shipping center. I still use the old one [paypal.com]. Not sure if this is what you're looking for.

I'm going to try a pair of skinny jeans or leggings at Express for the B1G1 deal with the extreme stretch jeans. I already have all the barely boot cut & boot cut jeans I want. Which is the one skinny jean or legging you all would recommend most for my short self? I'm thinking I may prefer skinny jeans to leggings, but I don't really know. FWIW, I tried on the extreme stretch leggings in the store & they were way too long.
I have the Zelda jean legging in dark [express.com] short. They don't have any of the fading around the pockets or in the front. They are the perfect length for me. I'm 5' 3". I ordered Stella extreme stretch [express.com] and returned them. They were too much like legging and not enough jean on me but the short length is perfect for me. When I went to the WC store they were out of a lot of sizes so I didn't get a chance to try on any of the skinny jeans so I can't compare them. Just wanted to chime in the short length is perfect for someone 5' 3". nod

:lol : I talked my friend to getting back to the Express bandwagon with some of the stuff you gals recommended and she's buying the same items in multiple colors :lol :

I still scout Express, it's just that there aren't close stores by to try stuff on and sometimes their size and looks can vary on me.
So far, Express sizes have worked better for me than VS. I guess it depends on body type, but it seems we have similar body types. Didn't you say you're curvy too? It's the bust area where I have a problem with VS dresses though. Could your friend do some returns for you? All I know is you're stronger than I. kurpee, alvs, & nerdi finally wore me down. I tried to resist, but they won. Facepalm

Speaking of nerdicus, is she still partying or is so too hungover to chat? Stick Out Tongue

I inquired about those in the store. The CS agent said they are made for wearing with heels. All the lengths add the length of heels, so a Short isn't the same length as their other short jeans. I didn't even bother trying them on. I only wear heels with dresses & skirts. They look nice for those who like to wear heels with jeans though.

That's the way I shop too. Price first... fit second. laugh out loud

I didn't even look at the Zelda legging. The extreme stretch jeans I wanted are $79.90, so I was looking for a pair of jeans that were that price or more. I do like the color of the Zelda leggings much better than the skinny jeans I ordered. I'll try those next.

WC's Express was pretty much a bust for me too. I did find a pair of dark, Zelda boot cut jeans to exchange for the Stella medium wash jeans I didn't like. I went hoping to exchange the Stella medium wash for Stella Extreme Stretch jeans http://www.express.com/stella-ext.../index.pro. Obviously, they didn't have those in my size. Their dress selection was better than their jeans, but I was in a hurry & didn't try any dresses. We were meeting family at Magic Kingdom & were already running very late. Embarrassment

Express is shipping crazy fast compared to the past. My order from yesterday has already shipped. They shipped my weekend orders yesterday.

Anyone tried the Extreme Stretch Denim Bandage Dress? http://www.express.com/extreme-st.../index.pro

hehe laugh out loud Nope, I'm not that curvy. I just have a big booty, small chest, small-ish waist. Kind of pear shaped or something. If that's what they call it.

I think I saw an update from nerdicus last night. Seems still in Vegas? Not sure Stick Out Tongue

This is what I am using it right now. But very inconvenience if I have more shipments to do. I really hate evil bay doing something like this. Anyways, find a temp. solution on the forum...spent so much time looking already....

Re: Is there a way to print shipping labels and pay with paypal credit card?

If you do not see the log in, then you have it preset to use your Pay Pal balance as the default.

From Pay Pal go
Your Profile
Financial Information
Recurring Payments Dashboard
4 Text Lines Down there's a blue link My preapproved payments
eBay Shipping (cancel)

Then go back to eBay and when you click to print your label you'll get the log in screen back up. Then you will see the 'select other payment method'

There is no way to default it your credit card that I am aware of.

I thought we were similar from the waist down. It sounds like it, if you also have curvy hips. I don't think anyone here has my exact shape. It's a safe bet that no one my size has a belly as big as mine. Annoyed I need to find a clothing twin, so I don't have so much trial & error. laugh out loud

nerdicus needs to get back & share the details. Stick Out Tongue

When my DH sold on eBay, it got so aggravating. They constantly made changes, & they're never an improvement. I'm convinced someone has nothing to do & keeps making changes to justify a paycheck. As the saying goes, "if it's not broken don't fix it". They kept making eBay & Paypal harder to use.
