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!

i've seen it in person. in store it wasn't hanging in clearance - there might be a bunch in store. it's not that bright (definitely not highlighter neon). i don't think it's barbie, but it's not a subtle color either. i'd say it's a warmer pink, maybe a bright berry color.

just order it before you regret it. Smilie

oOoo thanks for the reminder! are the brushes good? heart the nude tude!
Ordered it yesterday!

me too. i have some boxed up waiting on the mail lady. there isn't much in clearance and the sales/coupons are sucking. no reason to buy without a awesome deal because of the stockpile!

i'm trying to be done with vs for awhile too but i can forget it with the src's coming up.
february and march - get src's
april - redeem them
may and june - sas

Facepalm that is my vs future

Spent, thank you! hug This is the sweater:Linen Tunic [victoriassecret.com] I chill easily so it will be my beach sweater woot Hope they get it to me sooner, I want maximum usage!
cute!!! i heart the soft colors.
Quote from PordaPoddy :

I ordered it in a 0 and it won't zip at the top. I got that and the metallic non-lace one. I'm the opposite- I really liked the lace in person and the metallic one seemed kinda cheap to me. laugh out loud I think I must be a 2 in that style of dress.
nod I think you're right. I never tried the XS. I bought the blue in S yesterday and trying it on again, I could probably do the XS. I was thinking for length S would be better, but it is quite a bit of fabric and I'll probably return it. Wish I had bought those up.
The room in the forefoot is luxurious Girly I'm normally a size 7, but had enough room to pull off a 6.5 if they had it. I could put the 6 on and stand in it, but feel it crunching on the toes.
...
i was thinking you're smaller than me so the dress might even work in a 0, but i forgot about the chesticles. Coverlaugh the 0 fit me but was tight all around. it was stretchy tho. the 2 fit better but 0 would probably have been better for clubbing/vegas/etc, which was the only time i ever wore that dress (i don't even know where i put it tbh). maybe if i went out more...

the length is def an issue for the sharkbite if you reach up to get something from a top shelf or something. but the rest of it fits and i'd be afraid the S would be too much excess fabric. the length is fine aside from when you raise your arms all the way up (but even then, it's not too short but it's just a tad scandalous). i'm thinking it could be a good swim coverup.

i'll have to check the stores for those pumps. i tend to not be able to do closed to pumps due to oddly shaped toes, but if they're cute with good padding i'll suffer through it.

also, thanks for the credit monitoring info!
Quote from ayoungpretender :
I'm still toying with the idea of keeping it, because it is really flattering. I love the style and the way it fits everywhere besides the arms. I showed my boyfriend and he was all about until I showed him my limited range of motion, then he just laughed at me. I'm not even sure I could drive in it, it's that bad. I know the reasonable thing to do is return it, but I have this weird attachment to it.
do the responsible thing and return it. you won't wear it much if you can't move in it, unless you plan on getting it altered (i don't even know how they would fix that problem tho). can you try 1 size larger? might not look *as* nice and flattering but it could give you a bit more motion. you just need to be able to drive... Coverlaugh
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
On vs, get your reward card early. Apply for the vs card by feb 10. So I guess they start the 10 or 11 for angels Woot!

i saw that! i think azn mentioned it too... sounds about right considering april is normal redemption period so march is earning period and feb is early earning period. i hate that it's coming up so soon. don't let me order anything!

I totally get it! It's like you have a crystal ball and can see into my future as well.

The trouble is that there's not much from VS that I want right now...in fact, there's really nothing that I think that I can't live without. I wonder what VS is going to come out with.

My goal is to only buy one swim suit this season, however, my future may be taking me to consistent trips to South America...perhaps I will learn to handle the beach Smilie

I need to lay off the swimsuits for sure. They will get me with the src's I bet!

I left out July. I bet some sas will still be out in-store that is additional 50%!

I don't buy as much in august and September but in october the early access src's will probably happen and the madness will continue Whee. It's like a vicious cycle with vs.

i don't know if the brushes are good. the pics and names are cute Teehee i haven't used my nude tude yet laugh out loud i'm interested in the meet matte nude (only palette they have that i don't have yet laugh out loud )
laugh out loud i'm sad they didn't have the balm jovi palette. i would have ordered that. i don't have the other matte one either.
i heart the nude tude about as much as i heart my naked 2. they are very similar but i love them both. my nude tude came with 1 shadow sorta broken tho. i had ordered 2 (1 as a present) so i had to give the good one away and i was left with pressing the broken one. kinda annoying but too lazy to call them about it since it wasn't *that* broken.

laugh out loud it's piling and you JUST sent in a box of returns! we all have problems. i know it's harder for you to make it to a store due to distance. i have a bunch of stuff coming from express again too.

I would like to skip it too but I know that will not do that so I might as well have fun. If you can't be good be good at it.

yes it is in XS. I wear it with sweater leggings i bought from VS last year.
I don't think I will wear it with barelegs but those who can wear it bare legs its short but super cute Girly ain't it?

Thanks. I googled a bit for code but I think there is no FS ,right? not even with $125 shopping?

Vacation was great fun. My sis and her family joined us there and one of their kiddos were sick which eventually affected all of us little or more but then they stayed with us longer because of it Coverlaugh The place we stayed in was beautiful beyond words.

Miss chatting with you! Hope you are doing good ; )

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!
It sounds like I'm doing better than you are. I hope your DD feels better soon. You both need a break. hug

Quote from tarribear :
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 : (
Do what's best for you. If you're in a lot of pain, it would be worth the money to get it over with. I know it's a tough call, when one option is cheaper than the other. $100 isn't that bad for relief. I hope you can get it taken care of soon. hug

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
Oh no! I hope everything goes smoothly!



gh, how did you get the word market flutes fro $5.xx? I saw they were free ship, and I totally want them!
As nerdi said, I used a 49% off coupon. There's a 10% off code that's working now. I haven't looked to see if there's a better one. FWIW, I think the glasses would be a great buy for $10. I was surprised by the quality, when they arrived.

Quote from ayoungpretender :
I was so excited, I had snagged a VS Wool Military Lace-up coat in a size 8 (my normal coat size) on clearance for $69.99 with my $150 rewards card. I just got it today and tried it on. It looks so cute... but I can't move my arms! I think VS coats are terrible, in that the sleeves are sewn on so that the neutral position is straight down at the sides, whereas with most coats the neutral position of the sleeves is at a 45 degree angle. This probably is not as big of a problem for those with more proportionate arms and shoulders, but it's such a shame.

Attachment 1761480 Attachment 1761482
You're good at sewing. Could you let the arms out a little? The coat looks great on you. I have the same problem with a lot of Express coats/jackets. It's frustrating.

Maybe it was me that made the lace look cheap. laugh out loud I did love the color. I really wanted to like it, & may have liked it better for a cheaper price. Teehee On me, it didn't look like it was worth what I paid.
