thanks, it was me. i was going to ask what you do about bra straps showing under lace. i guess it's ok with cami.
ideally clear straps maybe. but i guess i don't care anymore sometimes because i don't know where my clear straps are anyway. i should be more organized and actually make good use of my stuff.

I'm such an idiot. I lost my express birthday coupon...it's completely gone. I have searched everywhere for it, and I was stupid enough to lose it : (. I've been looking for four days now, and I really think that it is gone for good : (

No blue skater dress for me : (

I was so stupid I didn't even copy down the online code...at least I have rewards.

Express just updated the site with lots of clearance. Check it out!

That would be great, if it was free.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
I should clarify, it wasn't the application for credit increase (I just did that yesterday - although that might also have that effect, I don't know), it was that I charged up within $1 of the limit :ee k: so I guess we want really high lines of credit, but we're not supposed to come close to fully exercising them. I track my score month to month now with the free service provided through Experian - creditsesame.com .

I'm glad that besides sizing issues, it's an across the board hit!
I had the card less than a month before I needed an increase :face palm: . Yeah, VS automatically increased mine and I can't say how it affected my credit to go near the limit since I wasn't monitoring my score that closely before.
My card stayed near the limit around Christmas. Obviously, I need to check my credit score more often.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
ETA 2 - Does anyone have the metallic ruched lace dress [express.com] in a size 2 or 4 in their return pile? Or the Sharkbite dress in a Black Small? Let's make a deal!
Have you seen the metallic ruched lace dress in the store? I order & returned it last year. The lace looked cheap to DH & me, but that could just be us.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I bought the pink dress. I will see if it's too barbie when I put it on.
It will look great with a good tan.

Quote from teenbean :
For a good credit score, you should only utilize up to 50% of your credit limit per card. Once you go over 50%, your score will be affected.
That's not good. EEK! I often order more than 50% of my credit limit in one day. It takes at least a day for a payment to go through, so it can't be paid off immediately. I guess I need to be more careful with what I spend.

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
these are super cute! I wounder if I can get them in store ...
Sorry, I've never been in a store. I'm really happy with the flutes for the price. They're nice thick glass. I'll definitely be shopping there more often.

Quote from nerdicus :

I would wear a black bra with the ivory top. I try to wear a bra the same color as the lace. If you can see the black bra through the ivory, I'd wear a beige bra. I ordered that once, but I don't remember if it was see through.

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Extra 30% off all clearance at Dillards - got some CRAZY deals on Coach in store today ; ) It is online also~!
Thanks

i hope you're keeping more than 1 of the lace yoke and make me feel better laugh out loud
we'll see!

but then i'd have to wear something with detachable straps. i'm far too lazy for that. probably why i end up not wearing my tops with that lace portion.

it's not hard to use more than 50% of your credit when your limit is a stupid 800 or 1000. i think it's really dumb when a card gives you such a low limit, when i have other cards with 20k limit. OMG obviously i can handle it... stop being so stingy!!! Annoyed

the ivory is super see-through. it definitely needs a cami. i don't think i'd even be comfortable wearing a nude bra underneath since it's that see-through. i'm hoping the other colors aren't as bad - i'm thinking maybe i can pull off wearing a nude bra under the others if they're not see-through. i still don't like straps showing tho.

Express - More new stuff in Clearance (Peplum Strapless dress, corset skirts, lace yoke easy tees). Feb Bonus Pts are not as drool "Get DOUBLE POINTS* on every Men's 1MX or Women's dress purchased with your EXPRESS NEXT Credit Card, February 1 - 28, 2013. Stock up on style and never look underdressed again!"
ETA 2 - Does anyone have the metallic ruched lace dress [express.com] in a size 2 or 4 in their return pile? Or the Sharkbite dress in a Black Small? Let's make a deal!

I saw these suede pumps at H&M today [hm.com]- they look so hot! They've got some real padding in the forefoot. Were it not for the height (3.5") and funky sizing ( I needed a 6.5 but the store said they didn't MAKE it in that size? Yet they make it in a few other half sizes Crazy ) .
...
you'd probably need a 2 in that metallic ruched dress if it fits like the other metallic ruched lace dress we have. did you try sharkbite in xs and it didn't work for you? i see it pop up in s every so often...

those pumps look awesome. i got a 30% coupon in my email today. that'd be great! what size do you normally wear?

Ugh - I am SO tired. DD is still cutting that tooth on top so she didn't sleep more than 45 minutes without crying last night. I called in today because I was worried about being on the road with her so much and not having slept!

Hi ladies, checking in. I am off to do some shopping and spend my $10 q for VS, Macy and my TRU or BRU coupons as they exp today. I also need to go to Lowes to get my free sample of paint, fb offer.

Looks like I have to have surgery on my shoulder. Scheduled in 3 weeks depending on if I do in network or out of network. The facility they like to use is out of network but they say they bill you as in network after copay and deductible, which means I have to pay $100 more. If I go in network I may have to wait to do the surgery as they are only there one day in the month at that facility Frown

oh no... good luck with it all. i say, if they're going to bill the out of network as in-network, then go for that even if it's $100 more. $100 is nothing in terms of health care costs. however, i would make sure that they will actually bill it like they say it will be billed, as these in-network/out of network rules are very complicated and sometimes they tell you one thing and then bill another. it's often very difficult to figure out how much something will actually cost until after the procedure, which is very annoying. i hate dealing with health insurance issues.
