New name, same girls!

Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

Since the Social Threads seem to have been done away with, this is the new home of the VS Social Thread. We talk about everything from VS to Express to Beauty to Coupons to Hot Deals...and of course, our personal lives.

Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

Porda recommended these to me, when I was looking for brown pants. Unfortunately, they no longer have brown. I don't know if she's tried them or was just recommending the style. She did say she had some similar pants from somewhere else, so she may not have these. Anyway, you may want to try a 2 also just in case the 4 is too big. I'm wondering if they're like the Mia zipper leg jeans I said the legs were so tight in. If so, the waist is TTS only the legs are snug. You'd need a 2 in the waist. This may not be the case, but you could cover your bases by ordering both & returning one.
i don't think there was ever a brown. she might be referring to the gray as brown, you know she's Crazy express labels it as midnight blue, but it is really gray to me.

it scrunches a little iirc. if i don't want it to wrinkle, i'm planning to just fold it in. it won't be noticeable.

there are more reviews from before they were clearanced, and one reviewer is about my height but 5 pounds lighter and got the 4 and said that it fits perfect. so i just got the 4... the 2 will prob be too tight in the legs for me anyway, as i do not have small legs.
my waist is not very small...

i know! annoying! crabtree & evelyn was like that too... but this was a couple years ago. not sure if they've fixed it.

how did the 2 fit on you? i'm thinking the 4 will be better for me bc of my larger legs. iirc we wear the same size in the stella skinny jeans.

I'm so embarrassed to just now be posting this, but I keep forgetting to get my DH to help me with pics. He's been working crazy long hours. By the time he gets home, he's usually ready to eat then go to bed. I'm going to go ahead & post what I got sans pics, so you all will know what an awesome gift I received from earthdeuxbella. bounce I'll describe everything as vividly as I can, since I can't post pics.

As soon as I opened the box, I knew I was going to love it. She used Carolina blue & white shredded paper for packaging & tied a Carolina blue & white bow. It was a beautiful package. I would have been happy with just the packaging. Woot I had to take the ornament off my tree to describe it. Yes, I still have my tree up & I put the ornament on it as soon as I opened it. Teehee So, here's what I got:



ornament - Carolina blue round ball with rams, snowflakes & Go Heels! on it. The hanger is a white ribbon.

Tervis tumbler - A very nice, thick, clear, 16 oz. tumbler with lid. It has the NC (Carolina) logo in blue on the front. She put the shredded paper in this too for decoration. I really needed this. DS keeps taking off with our glasses & cups & not returning them. He'll be banned from touching this one. Evillaugh

Origins A Perfect World SPF 25 1.7 oz. - I think you all know what it looks like. Another great gift, just not quite as good as the two above. Wink J/K Everybody knows they could buy me Carolina trash bags & they'd be my favorite gift. Teehee

Crabtree & Evelyn Hand Therapy Citron Honey & Coriander .8 fl. oz. - I was really glad to get this, because I gave away all but a couple of the tubes I bought as gifts. I needed it.

BBW Winter Candy Apple PocketBac Hand Gel - My favorite BBW scent. heart

Crabtree & Evelyn Tarocco Orange Eucalyptus & Sage Body Lotion - Packet

Her gift made me feel bad that I didn't follow the wishlist more, when buying gifts for liggie. You can tell bella studied the list & bought things she knew I'd love rather than getting stuff she hoped I'd want. I couldn't be more thrilled with what I got. She was an awesome, thoughtful SS. bounce

BTW, her note said she was going to try to stop by more often. I hope she does. I miss her here.

earthdeuxbella, if you see this, I wanted to thank you for the gift. hug You haven't posted here in a while, so I couldn't find your username to send a PM. I'm really ecstatic with my gift.

Good to know. I ordered the MIA leggings in gray. They're supposed to arrive Saturday. If I don't like them, I may order these.

I didn't see the other reviews. I was just going by the way they look on the model.

i followed kurpee's instructions a long time ago to find the listing here [express.com].

i wonder what fit these are like the most. if it's really tight in the legs like the MIA leggings you tried it's not going to work for me.

*edit* you're right, they do look like the same fit if you look at the photos.

Downtown LA VS. bras were 19.99 BUT panties, sleepwear, pink were NOT marked down additionally.

they brought out 75% PINK beauty items. Everything else beauty was still 50%.

if you girls find any 15.99 Bras or additional 50% off pink/sleepwear stores, please share TIA!

My store, but I am guessing you don't want to come to Connecticut--airfare prob cancels out cheaper price. laugh out loud
