I don't remember that trend. I remember the boys wearing the saggy pants but that's about it.

That tulip top is so pretty. I wished it fit me right.
Guess it was regional...?

nod I love the top. Wish I could get it in the right size! The mint one came bis in L also. That one ran bigger so I could do xs in that I think. I am determined to get it in s!

I ordered the one button peplum seamed jacket http://www.express.com/one-button.../index.pro, then noticed it has a white lapel. Facepalm I had intentions of returning it. It came today, so I tried it on for DH. Naturally, it's the most flattering of the jackets I've tried. Rolleyes2 DH says to keep it. What could I wear with it to for a date night, casual look? I don't go anywhere to wear a business/dress suit, so I need ideas to make it wearable in my casual world.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
Sorry for the interruption. DH & I are watching services for the Riverside police officer killed by that crazy guy. The service was so moving and to see all the people line the streets. : ( I called on RPD several times when I lived there and a few times, an officer gave me his "direct line" in case the guy casing the vacant condos came back. His name was Mike (same as this guy) and while it's a popular name, some part of me thinks it might be him. Either way, just so sad to see his wife and 2 young kids...and moving to see the community lining the streets for the processional.
ETA - I changed the link to the Live video feed (no commercials/ads): http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/liven...eo-8990241
So sad. My heart breaks for his wife & kids. Frown

Quote from nerdicus :
speaking of which, i was watching an old movie (last days of disco with kate beckinsale) and saw a peplum dress! :cove rlaf: made me think of you when you said you remember the last time they were popular.
Are you calling me old? EEK! laugh out loud I've never seen that movie. When was it filmed?

Quote from azn1x6flame :

Perhaps your DS is just accustomed to how his grandparents treat him, so perhaps he doesn't expect too much? I know if I were a parent, I'd want the best for my child, so I understand where you're coming from. If your DS isn't too worried, then he may not have even noticed. No use worrying about it too much because I'm sure your DS knows how much he's loved with all the love that you guys shower him with!
I told DH about the card & he's as unhappy about it as I am. Like me, he knows she doesn't have a problem telling DH she loves him. She doesn't sign his cards that way. It's really not worth getting upset over. She's not going to change. She's just alienating her son more every time she does stuff like this. shake head

Quote from red333 :
I love your DS's cake idea, and I'm sorry you're having problems with your inlaws.

DBF is such a keeper....SUCH a keeper, and I probably don't even deserve him. I don't talk about him much here, but I've started talking about him a little more recently. We've been together three years now, and though he has his flaws, it is so apparent that he loves me...and we are really a great match for each other.

I've never been so excited for a Valentine's Day...and I keep reminding him how much this means to me, so I know he's feeling pretty good about himself as well : D
I'm excited for you. It sounds like you're going to have a very special day tomorrow. bounce

Everyone has flaws. As long as he loves you more than he loves himself & you feel the same way, you'll have many happy years ahead of you. Judging by his actions you don't have anything to worry about. heart

i have this [express.com] in the bag too in s. the reviews say it runs small.
It looks like the top nerdi linked wasn't lined & needed a cami underneath. Is this top lined? It says semi shear, but it could still be lined with thin fabric.

Quote from nerdicus :
i think i need to stalk my pink coat again. : ( it's still not tracking and usually by now it would have shown up somewhere.
Hopefully, someone was just being slack & didn't scan it. :fingerscrossed:

i thought that jacket would fit you beautifully! i'm glad it works for you. imo you can put it over jeans to dress it down a bit. (i would put just about anything over jeans, other than anything denim)

i hope so, but to me it looks like it never left the express factory. Frown at least it wasn't a reward order, i guess. and at least since it doesn't show delivered it'll be obvious that it wasn't my mistake.

That's awesome Smilie. I'm going to finish my rewards up this weekend. I think this is a good sale with the express cash. It's a good time to use them.

Question for NETFLIX USERS:

Can you do simultaneous streaming to more than 1 device?

We are thinking of letting go of DirecTV as soon as our contract is up. I still want us to be able to use more than 1 TV at the same time.

It depends on your plan, I think. If you have the 3 DVDs out at a time plan, you can stream from 3 devices.

If you only have a streaming acct, I'm not sure. I think it's only 1 but it may be 2.

We have the basic plan. It does allow simultaneous streaming, but results vary. I'm not sure what triggers the block, but for us, it does allow bf and I to use Netflix at the same time, most of the time. However, for whatever reason, when his cousin uses it, it blocks access for anyone else. And of course, his cousin is always using it, so we hardly ever have access to Netflix anymore.
