omg, that makes me rethink the whole thing! laugh out loud i may still do it for the flight that's going from small airport to small airport (they have those faster scanner things now and basically make everyone go through them) but i will keep it in mind for larger airports like LAX (they still do metal detectors as far as i know so i'd much rather go thru that). thanks for the HU! it IS a very comfy dress tho.

I think it was SNA that did that, but I'm not sure. It was either SNA or ORD.

Oh no I don't want to hear that. I have these on my wishlist so I can wear them with heels. Sadwalk
We all have different preferences, I can try to take a pic to show you. For reference, I'm 5'6".
Quote from nerdgirl :
that's the number i've been calling! if it's not letting you, maybe try calling back later. i had trouble a few weeks ago - it kept wanting to transfer me. but i just used that number like last week to cancel some backorders.

what's it doing for you?
I forgot to cancel my b/o's and now I have a $30 Angel Reward Facepalm I need to do some returns STAT!

Maybe I'm just doing something wrong. I call it and give my order number. Then, it tells me one item has shipped (great). then it says, you can say "tracking information," "item details", or "continue."

I have no idea how to cancel a backorder. Granted, I've never tried canceling a backorder before, and I may just be doing it wrong. I just noted the number in case I ever wanted to.
hmmm weird. i've used it multiple times to cancel my backorders. did you "continue"? it used to tell me the backorders first tho.

You can wear a 4 short at 5'6"? I'm only 5'1 1/2" & 2 short works for me. I would have thought you'd need a regular. It's really strange that those were too long for you.

thanks - i will rethink the whole maxi-while-travelling idea then. did they actually tell you it was because of your dress? (what are they afraid of, you strapping something to your leg?)

i just got a $20 reward yesterday. i've been doing lots of returns too... not sure what happened.

I wish they had more of these promotions in the store. I like going into the store and picking out what I want and checking out with a freebie.

On the upside, I checked my e-mail, and for the last two years, there has been a VIB weekend the first weekend of August where they gave out a bag/hatbox with 7 minis. Fingers crossed for that happening again! I feel like i haven't bought much from sephora in a while.

I see they have that print in the Kimono and it's not available either in any size. Is it possible that this fabric is not in production yet? Scratchhead

On the browser thing, I recently figured out that in Firefox, I can't edit my cart or do an item # search. I can in Safari (Apple-based browser). That website is so sucky... must cost them a ton of $$$ in lost sales.
I saw the print in the slip form at the Brea mall...but I haven't seen the Kimono print. Pray not in production yet!!

And yes, I agree about that in Firefox. I don't know how they coded their new website, but it sure is sucking! I get annoyed with having to switch between Firefox and Chrome just to find certain items.

All of you are bad influences!!! I do have some ways to work my magic. Is it available in-store? That may be even better. When does this new GWP bag begin, anyone???
I think HBA answered that. The 23rd? I can't remember. Seems to be next week.
Quote from Wewewe :
Hey Anz-Just tried the paypal shipping center thing after I cancelled the default payment (the instruction I posted last time). When you create a new shipment "Print label", hit "review" (not "purchase" which will bring you to an error page), then it will bring you to paypal checkout page (same as the process you paid an item when you buy stuff on fleabay). So you are able to choose cc as a form of payment. It is sort of inconvenience cos there are more steps and log in to go thro'. To me, little bit better than to copy and paste buyer address and switch between screens. FYI.
That's good to know!! Thanks for the info.

Actually, yes. I think this is the reason. I've flown with a maxi skirt before. Super comfy, etc..got patted down from the crotch to the ankles on 3 of the 4 airports I flew in and out of on one trip. LAX, SEA, PDX, except ONT. ONT seems to be really lax. Eh, never again. I'd rather fly though security than being stopped. Also started wearing tighter jeans. Got padded down on regular bootcut jeans before - wtf..?

yeah... that sucks. but i can see why it can be of concern. i'm glad i chose to wear shorts on my flights to/from vegas. that makes it really easy for them! (tho we all still had to be scanned, and they PATTED MY HEAD after that scanner thing. laugh out loud i do have a large head...)

i know, super scary. tho, it sounds like he planned it ahead of time and was very smart (had a degree in neuroscience). so hopefully nothing else like this will happen bc of the planning involved. i would hope that security would be looking for copycats and they'd catch them before anything happens.

I got UD's smoked palette. For those interested locally, call Brea Mall. They have it in the back and not on display yet. The SA was so excited she opened up my eyeshadow!! Mad

I'm not sure it's worth $49, it was put together haphazardly and has a paper bottom. There was eyeshadow smeared on the side and some finger prints like the Naked palettes. I figured packaging would be of Naked quality. Glad it was on store credit.

Haven't used the colors yet, but they look nice Smilie

i got some express orders today
boatneck dress - size 4 fits like the striped ruched dress in 6 for me. i'm so cheap, i feel like $42 is still a lot, so i'm still undecided.
surplice dress - i waffled on this for a long time. i decided i'm not getting it. i ordered the s, and decided my bottom is not curvy enough for it. maybe i should have gotten a xs, but i'm afraid to grow out of my clothes too quickly.
stretch ruched lace dress [express.com] - just looks so wrong on me laugh out loud too ruched, too fitted. has great reviews, but it doesn't look like that on me, even just on the strap area. maybe i positioned the dress wrong on me, but i won't try anymore, as i'd have nowhere to wear it anyway.

i think that boatneck dress is pricey also. i like that it's so conservative tho, bc it'd be great for work. i feel like the skirt is a bit restricting tho - a problem i didn't have with the 4. however, the waist on the 2 fit better, and the top was a bit loose. i have a feeling this dress wasn't made for my type of body...

i agree with the stretch ruched dress. it didn't look so good on me either.
