The FB Limited Virtual dollars look like they can be used multiple times in-store. But only one per transaction.

the one thing keeping me from buying is the auto cleaning the printer does. if you read the reviews, it sounds like it cleans the head by itself for random reasons. that will waste a lot of ink. i don't use my printer at home every day or even every other day. it's sporadic - probably about once a week. according to reviews it will clean itself every time i print then.
i will look further into this. thanks for the warning. definitely using cheap inks laugh out loud

yeah, definitely! the review i read that was helpful was right on top at amazon. they said it's not as often when they leave it as a wireless printer and don't connect to a computer regularly. otherwise it will clean the heads every time that usb connection is reset (i.e. if the computer shuts down or power cycles or anything). it is probably a good upgrade for me, but i will pass bc i'd rather have a laser, i think. even tho toner is so pricey.

does this look funny? (tried on more jackets in store over the weekend) as opposed to the 2nd photo that i posted before.

and i really do prefer the look of the older moto jacket. Frown found one in store in a M but that didn't help. i tried on XS in store and it didn't work, so the one i ordered will have to be returned, boo.

oh, also, finally tried some of the living proof styling products in sephora. i think this [sephora.com] was what my MUA used on my hair that smelled so good. no idea if that was what helped my curls last, but it could have been!

One on the left looks good on you! It enhances your waist and is more form fitting and flattering!

u don't think it looks too small? DH said it looked ridiculously small, and then mumbled something about women and the cost of fashion. laugh out loud

i had him take a photo of the back. it looks funny in back i think... but i think my main problem with the XS is that it's shorter on me.

What style & size is the first one? That one is very flattering on you. Would it be big enough to wear a sweater underneath it? You can't really tell in a pic how much room there is.

Now, I tempted to order that. I already have 2 different styling products packed to prep my hair to curl though. Facepalm There are a few things I want to get from Sephora, including the blushes recommended for me. Should I go ahead & order online or wait to shop in store to see before I buy? Surprisingly, I only order from Sephora when you all say there's an awesome deal. I hate that they require a $50 purchase to get FS, so I don't usually even look there. Basically, I'm a Sephora newbie. I suppose I could look at Ulta too. Wherever I buy everything, I want to get the best deal. Do you think I'd get a better deal at Sephora or Ulta? Also, can I get a freebie of any kind in store at either?

it is the peplum in XS. i am worried it looks too small on me, but the photo does seem more flattering. it looks weird in back.

i probably could fit a sweater under the XS, but it prob would not look good.

in contrast, the XS in the older style moto jacket zipped on me but felt REALLY small and you can see where it pulls where it's too small (in the chest), i think. i'll attach the photo here. i like the jacket better tho, i'm not sure why. tho i do think the peplum doesn't look as short on me as this red one, bc of the placement of the zip pockets. (i often have a problem with the zip pockets coming all the way up to my chest bc the jacket is on the short side)

as for sephora - their f&f is coming up in 10 days, but i think you may be leaving for your trip by then. it wouldn't be a good deal if you order it now since there aren't any codes. but if you really wanted it, i think you can get a FS on 25 code from their spinning game (or check the sephora thread). i don't know tho - some reviews seem to say that product is not effective on hair that sounded similar to yours, so i'm not sure if it'd be worth trying, since it's so expensive.

the back of the XS jacket (this is likely why DH said it looked funny)

I think that jacket looks great on you. I also like the peplum look in general though. It's more feminine, which I prefer.

It sounds like I'd be better off waiting for F&F @ Sephora. They have the same sale in stores, right? I can go to Sephora in the mall a week from Sunday. The sale should have started by then.

i think i prefer a less feminine look. laugh out loud that sounds weird, but i'm really not used to my jackets being so form-fitting. i feel like you can see it pulling in the back from being too small. the arms are perfect in width for me tho. the arms on the S are a bit large for me, but i liked the length. it's bordering on short in the XS bc i like sleeves to be long.

i think the peplum will be perfect for you tho! your waist is smaller than mine so it should fit you really well. Smilie

I see where you said it's too small from where it hits your belt and how your shirt is showing underneath...

BUT! I agree with GH, this is really flattering on you!!! I love the way the back looks. I think I like it because it's not so boxy looking. nod

I ALSO really like the red one on you as well!

oh, it's not a belt - it's the waistband of my yoga pants (from express). but yeah in general it's a bit on the short side for me. too bad. if only they'd make a tall version... i hate things that show my midriff.

hahah but the red one is SO TINY on me!! you guys are funny. i guess photos show different from fit... the red i could never wear bc it felt very constricting. the other one was not as tight.
