Also, does anyone have this Drop Waist Knit Dress [express.com] or this CHIFFON TRIMMED SHARK BITE HEM DRESS [express.com]?

How are the sizes? Are they TTS? I have a reward that expires 10-27, and I'm afraid that all of the dresses won't be 30% off at the same time again

ahh! love the shark bite dress - can't believe they finally have other colors!! i got it when they only had black. i have the XS - it's a great length on me tho it does ride up if i lift my arms above my head, bc of the cut. i still love the dress tho - very comfy and imo very chic.

the drop waist dress looks like something i would love. def want to try it... whenever fall decides to come by! can't believe it's still SO HOT in LA!

I got a mini Chi from Costco a while ago (but sometimes I see them cheap on other sites). It is seriously the best travel dryer that I could imagine. It's dual voltage, and I've never had a problem with it. I've had this travel dryer and flat iron set [overstock.com]for about 6 years, and I have taken them all over Japan, Australia, and Europe. If you (or anyone else) travels a lot, I would highly recommend checking this set out.

how much was it at costco? i will def look for this!

i have a LOT of hair that takes a long time to dry... even with my solia it takes me 15-20 min. with those hotel ones tho, i feel like it takes an hour... i usually have to dry some, then take a break, then dry some more. very annoying!

I know what you mean. My hair isn't thick, but it's long. It's almost to my elbows, so it takes forever to dry. If I don't dry it with a dryer, it will just stay wet for days if I put it up in a bun. The Chi dryer is really strong, and there's a switch that you flip to go from one voltage to another. It's so easy, and it's SO good.

I paid $70 from Costco before I was going to Japan in 2007. It was pricey but definitely worth every penny. The travel dryer is almost as good as the one I use on a daily basis.

I saw them for $100 at Nordstrom Rack a few years ago, and I saw the dryer itself for $25 when Trade Secret was clearing out their stuff last summer. They are known to pop up here or there.

Also, since we've been talking about weddings so much, the bride finally assigned our dress. This is a wedding I'm SUPER excited for.

The dress is $250. I'm really not happy about that, but at least it's really pretty. You can wear it 15 different ways [thewhitedressbytheshore.com] (which I'm not too keen on), but I like the standard strapless version [nordstrom.com]. She's getting it in the color plum, which is going to be super flattering with my red hair.

She said we can get it from Nordstrom, but I can't find it anywhere else online. If anyone knows how I can get a deal on this dress, please let me know. Otherwise, I noticed it was one of Nordstrom's standard dresses on their site, not just a special bridal dress. Perhaps it will go on sale eventually...some other Jenny Yoo dresses are on sale at least...that gives me hope.

omg I LOVE THIS DRESS. if i had known about it i probably would have used it!

thanks for the dryer info. i will be on the lookout for this! i won't need a dual voltage dryer for awhile, so i have time to find a deal. Smilie my hair is thick, long, and extremely full. the WORST combination. maybe i will cut it now that i don't need the length anymore...

I tried the Stella Colored Jean Legging in Dark Red http://www.express.com/stella-col.../index.pro & Beige http://www.express.com/stella-col.../index.pro over the weekend. Some reviews said they run big, so I tried a 2 in beige & 0 in dark red. The 2 was too big. The 0 fit, but both of them looked horrible on me. I don't know how to describe it, but it kind of looked like I had on a diaper in the back. EEK! It look like something was pulling them down. You couldn't tell I had 2 booty cheeks. It was like one big cheek. One pair was only $19.99 & I won't keep them at that price. (I wouldn't keep them at $4.99.)They both looked so bad that I would never wear them. It's too bad. Those of you who like them should try dark red. It's like a brick red. I love the color. I wasn't crazy about the beige color, but would have kept them for a little variety in colors. On a positive note, the 0 looked good from the front.

It doesn't rub off of me. Let it dry for a minute though. Fake tanning stuff doesn't stay on me very long. The spray tans from the salon only last about 3 days.
I'm glad to see it doesn't rub off. I've never tried a spray tan, but my niece had one once. She came out looking like a pumpkin. Stick Out Tongue

Quote from nerdgirl :
i'm back!!

i only have 1 yoga pant (capri length) from express. it's an XS, but i only got that bc it was sold out in S. they seem to fit pretty much the same for me, except there may be less room in the butt in the XS. i would have preferred the S tho, so i could just throw them in the dryer without fear of shrinkage.

i wear S in vs yogas.

i'll bet either size will work for you as well.
Yay, I'm glad you're back. We missed you. I'll understand, if you didn't miss us. Wink

Thanks for the yoga pant info. S is still available in one pair of cheap pants, so I'm going to order it too. I'll decide which to keep, after I try them on.

For the second one, my daughter found it ran a little big. She needed to size down from S to XS.

She probably tried to go too dark. I always do the light. The medium makes me orangy.
