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!

depends on how often you plan to go within the mo and the costs of the treatments/products
are you doing an ongoing subscription or will it be short? also depends on if you buy a lot of their products.
I sometimes buy their products and sometimes buy them online. They do awesome bundles so I need to see if it will work on the promotionally priced bundles. I also do a peel about once a month. They range from $100 to $125 depending on strength. I'm thinking the $80 will be worth it for sure. Plus it will save me around $300 on my botox and fillers. It is a year deal. Kind of like a tanning subscription I guess. It's a new program they introduced this year.

$80 a month I can get a spa service (facial or peel), 20% off additional services, and 10% off products (includes injectible)
for $150 a month I can get a spa service or laser service, 40% off additional services, and 20% off products.

i think you'd have to do a lot of stuff within a month to justify paying nearly double at 150

80 would cover your peel that you would have done anyway so it would just be additional savings


is it ever harmful to over pamper /over service your body?

the peels tingle a little but I'm used to them. I just do a mild one most of the time.
the botox doesn't hurt. I've only done my forehead. the filler does hurt little. they do have numbing creme plus it has something to numb it directly in the filler now. it's not that bad but around the mouth is more sensitive than the forehead.

i'm thinking the same thing with the $150.

Went to 2 VS' - they say their sales will continue even after Mon. Sleepwear selection was horrible. No flannel pj's anywhere, just those romper things Frown ...


Upside, I went to 2 Express' and 1 store will re-apply my $15 off Q woot . I was finally able to get this suit: venetian teal herringbone [express.com] and lace print skirt [express.com] to pair it with. I already have the contrast blouse and dress shirt in that color. I'm so excited Smilie Also got the same herringbone pants in dark raspberry. So nice to have matching sets! Time to retire my Target suit nod


Yours looks prettiest IMO! I bet she's referring to matching BMs to GMs based on height. Height would then determine order down the aisle....but I would love nothing more than to hear that she wants to dictate how you sashay down the aisle laugh out loud Thanks for the HU on the jingle panty.
Thanks! You gotta keep the lace jacket - so versatile - dress up the jeans or add texture to your business style Girly
Nice deal on the Express! So nice they let you reapply the $15. Cute suit!

I really wish I had some foresight and bought some gold colored costume jewelry for the BM role with all the $15!! I wonder if they will let me do an exchange. I swore off costume jewelry a long while ago and now, I have no gold necklace to bring to the dress try ons. I most definitely do not want to bring my real gold necklace that has a dinky clasp. I sure hope she's referring to matching BMs and GMs cause it will be 100% awkward walking down by myself, but I re-read the email a couple of times and she said the GMs will be standing there with the groom and waiting for BMs Confused

Sleepwear at my VS is all picked over. I have been returning so much the SAs recognize me shake head Easier for me to do it instore I guess so I can also do store returns Evil

I agree with wolfie about going with the $80. You seem to buy enough products online to not justify the $150 being worth it

Zipper looks fine to me. Just the two fabrics mixing is kinda weird to me Hide

I really want to like/try on j crew cashmere sweaters since I saw a pretty green one this last holiday season. Unfortunately, when they lay their pieces down, it looks like it has no shape and is super boxy. That makes me sad. I don't like looking boxy Sadwalk

I think it's suede up top. I'd have to see it in person. The zipper doesn't come all the way to the bottom. That looks kind of weird to me.

it is customary to have groom + groomsmen walk in separately, and then have bridesmaids walk in by themselves during the processional. then you leave in pairs. it won't be awkward walking by yourself - you'll be fine. you'll have a bouquet for others to focus on anyway, so your arms won't be awkwardly swinging.

i think it's awkward for groomsmen to be walking to music tbh.

In the weddings around here, the groomsmen walk in separately through the front. But when the bridesmaid starts walking down the aisle, the groomsmen will meet the bridesmaid between 1/2 and 1/3 way down the aisle, and they will walk down the rest of the way arm in arm.

I've never saw that. The boys all come in from the side door and take their place. The groom meets the bride and her escort at the bottom of the steps and they do their little her mother and i thing. then the groom escorts the bride up the steps to the preacher.

Iagree with this, though i'm used to father handing off daughter to the groom. that is how we did it.
