You know he wanted to get caught, and I dunno why someone would do that?
You know, I was hypothesizing that he may want to get into an insane asylum and recruit as Joker did as per the video game, Arkham Asylum. I really wonder why...?
I tried on quite a few Express items last night. I'll try to start working on reviews now.
Ruched Cowl Shell Top in Royal Blue http://www.express.com/ruched-cow...pro#jsLin

Stella Extreme Stretch Barely Boot Jean in Dark & Black http://www.express.com/stella-ext.../index.pro. I ordered my regular size in these. They feel like they're going to be tight, when you're pulling them up. At least, they did over my hips. There's a lot of stretch, so they end up fitting nicely. They're much more flattering than the regular Stella & Zelda jeans are on me. The length is about 1" to 1 1/2" too long. I'll just have to wear them with wedges or boots with heels. For some reason, the dark jeans looked better on me than black did.
Stella Skinny Leg Jean in Dark http://www.express.com/stella-ski.../index.pro. These are also more flattering on me than the regular Stella & Zelda jeans. The length is perfect for me. Keep
Stella Boot Cut Regular Fit Jean in Dark http://www.express.com/stella-boo.../index.pro. If you remember, I tried these earlier. I had decided to keep the dark color & returned the medium color. While I was trying on the other jeans last night, I decided to try them again. I'm glad I did. Compared to the others they were very unflattering. My booty looked flat & the long pockets made my legs look stumpy. I think I was just desperate for jeans, which is why I had decided to keep them earlier. Return
Zelda Barely Boot Jean in Dark http://www.express.com/zelda-bare.../index.pro. These looked a little better than the Stella boot cut, but not nearly as good as the other 3 pair. They flattened out my booty almost as much, but didn't shorten my legs quite as bad. If I didn't know how much better the others looked, I may have kept these. Since I now have 3 pair of jeans that that fit well, I can be more choosy. Return
To be continued.....
...
Yep, I have that skirt in blue & black.
...
I tried that dress on again last night. After trying them on, I'm thinking I should try an XS also. If it will stretch to accommodate my chest, XS would definitely fit better from the chest down. I have the green, blue, & print. My DH & I both preferred green on me over the other 2.
i think porda has your size chest... and she wore a xs. so maybe she can chime in on how the fit was...?

me too! your hubby is awesome gh!
I'll have to look back for Porda's review. I must have missed it somehow.
Thanks on behalf of my hubby. He's been through 22 years of training to get him this way.

Metallic Ruched Dress http://www.express.com/metallic-r.../index.pro. I ordered a 4 in this dress. The color is really strange, but in a neat way. Depending on the lighting & background, it can look silver one minute then gold the next. I'd like to find some multi-tone (black, gold, & silver) shoes to wear with it. It's very flattering. I think the length is short enough to be sexy, but not too short to sit in for my 5' 1" frame. It would be pretty short on those of you who are tall. For me, this one will be for more dressy occasions. It's definitely not a casual dress. Keep
Belted Chiffon Ruched Dress http://www.express.com/belted-chi.../index.pro. This is a really pretty dress. It was actually my favorite of the 3. The top of this dress is prettier in person than in the picture. Unfortunately, it didn't fit me. I ordered a 4 in this dress also. My DH couldn't get it to zip in the chest area. If it had, it would have been very flattering up top.
Circle Pendant Necklace in Hematite http://www.express.com/circle-pen.../index.pro. I ordered this with intentions of wearing it with the black & white print dress. It arrives with the chain & pendant separated. You have to put the pendant on, which means figuring out the chain configuration shown. As I've mentioned, I'm new to costume jewelry. This is a simple, elegant necklace. I like that it doesn't scream flashy fake. It's sturdy for the price. I also like that it will complement the dress, rather than be a focal point. I almost returned it, but my DH thought I should keep it. This really doesn't reflect on the necklace. It's just me trying to get used to costume jewelry. Keep
Abstract Scroll Hinge Bracelet in Hematite & Gold http://www.express.com/abstract-s.../index.pro. I ordered Hematite to match the necklace above & got Gold free with the promo. This is a feminine bracelet that's smaller than it appears in the picture. That's good for me, with small arms & small hands. It would be better, if it was tighter on me. I'd prefer it not fall on my hands. I doubt anyone could wear it on their upper arm. It's not nearly big enough for me to wear it there. As I said, I have fairly small arms. Personally, I prefer Hematite. I may have returned Gold, but it was free. They're fairly heavy, so neither of them look tacky cheap. Keep
I think that's it for this weekend's try-ons, other than some items I tried on again that I had bought earlier.
Ann Taylor tick tock tonight. 40% off sale!
foundthis [express.com] on clearance (black and white one) - strange as i thought the store clearance would be the same as the online clearance but this dress doesn't seem to be on clearance. it was marked 39.99 so after 40% off it was $24! i went ahead and used a $15 reward on it. score! it fit me very well in XS - very slimming and the halter was perfect and doesn't show any cleavage. it's a tad long for me - i'd have to hem it to wear flats, or else wear heels with it (i'm 5'6). i think as long as i have 2-3" heels i'll be ok with the length.
i tried on the boatneck dress [express.com] in a 0 and it fit me SO MUCH BETTER. it's so strange how the 2 and 4 both look like they could work, but the 0 works much better. it's actually slimming and makes me look good! (i felt like i looked a bit frumpy in the 2 and 4) i am going to return my 2 and 4 and see if i can exchange one for a 0. i'm not sure what color tho - i
i tried on kurpee's sweater [express.com] and actually like the wild orchid the best. i think i am going to get it - it's a bright and fun color. the red was a bit darker in person than online, and the currant wasn't as dark - it was more burgundy than purple. XS fit me well like all the other similarly shaped sweaters.

also tried on this colorblock dress [express.com] in the green. it's really cute! a tad short on me (i tried XS but i think the S may have worked also, for a looser look) but i love that the dress is a different color in front vs in back! it came to maybe 6" above my knee. possibly a bit higher.
also tried on stella barely bootcut in size 2R. I LOVE THEM! i am going to have to order some - they were soooooo comfy and just the perfect length for me (assuming it'd shrink a tiny bit after a wash). i liked the regular medium blue better than the extreme stretch. it was a tad loose in the 2R but not enough for me to size down (and just enough to make them super comfy). thanks all for continually recommending these jeans - i'm so glad i remembered to try them!
