Is that for the BM outfit? I would probably suggest try both sizes. I can see that it might be the material that clings, but there's a good chance it could be loose like a regular tee.
i want a clingy/small top, because we'll be putting a poufy skirt over it that sits at natural waist. if the top is loose it wouldn't look as good imo. probably best to try both sizes tho... i'm annoyed it's so pricey too! i'll probably have to rebuy it if it ever goes on sale. at least with vs i know i can always send it back.

tulip skirt bra top dress: it's cute. it shows a lot of cleavage but i expected that. the skirt shows a lot of leg when you move. a little too much so it's going back.

here's the leg part:



if you want snug xs. s is loose on me although some of my vs tops are small.
holy moly that's sexy.

i didn't know you had some S for vs. i usually get S. i should probably just get my normal size and only size down if it's too big.

this top was $10 last night. sorry i hadn't tried it on yet so i couldn't comment when someone asked about it.



there is the back. i think it will stay closed easy. it may show a little bra. i will probably wear one with it just try to match the top. it's not bad though about showing imo.

sometimes i like my fitted tees with a little room. i like them both ways so i buy both.

minus leather peplum. i am leaning toward keeping it. it's cute. i have it on with the tweed skirt.





maybe that's a better pic. sorry my photography skills are so great.



undecided on this one. it's not my favorite so it will most likely be returned.
i ordered that top too but i don't like it (the last one). it's short on me - looks better on you!

i really like this one! i may consider that color as well (i ordered the black/white/blue one). i also ordered the black lace 39.90 one but the one from online fits tighter than the one i tried in store. i'm always in between XS and S so i'm considering exchanging for the XS i tried in store, if i can. it's sort of an in-between.

i hate how express has had some horrible size discrepancies lately. i thought they were pretty good about quality control but i've been noticing different XS's in the same style fitting differently. also, i got a pair of pants yesterday (raspberry herringbone pants in size 2 - it's a barely bootcut dress pant) and they fit almost exactly the same as teal herringbone in size 0 - i tried raspberry herringbone in size 2 in the store and it felt like a size 6. wtf express!!

on the bright side, that means that i have another pair of pants to wear to work. this new pair is shorter too, so i can wear it with 1" heels. (even though they're all R inseam)

hahaha it may make you look *too* busty if that's possible. Stick Out Tongue makes my average sized boobs look large!

any codes i can use with shipstyle and earlyangel? too bad the scoopneck tees in clearance don't work with shipstyle. Frown

Quote from longislandgirl :
my dress is copied here [jcpenney.com] :e ek: i wonder who copied who ?



I am still :str ong: with any CC. I still think getting cc makes you do conditioned shopping(i.e. triple point on dress , you buy more dress then, double point in month - you shop more in that month etc...) and not having CC will help you resist some shopping


Girls, I need suggestion on what to wear on catholic funeral mass : O Hubby is boss's wife died of pancreatic cancer, all these happened within 2 months of time between them diagnosing it and her passing away :sadw alk: they have a daughter 16 year old. My heart goes out for them. DH and boss had more than just professional relations ( his boss invited us to their beach house one summer for pizza party ) and I think we will attend the funeral on Saturday.
I don't like the splotches in the fabric on that dress. The one we bought doesn't have that, does it? It's possible I didn't even notice it. Facepalm

CCs make me spend more, which is why I try to avoid them. I needed a new wardrobe last year, so getting an Express CC made sense. I'm afraid I'd buy more of everything from VS than I need, if I got a CC.

I'm not Catholic, so I don't know the proper protocol for their funerals, but I try to always go with black or navy blue. Where I'm from, people don't necessarily stick to dark clothes anymore. I just feel like it's more appropriate. In NYC, they're probably less relaxed with the dress code. That's heartbreaking for your DH's boss & their DD. Death is devastating. It's especially so, when you don't have time to try to prepare for it.


Quote from nerdicus :
do any of y'all have the essential scoopneck [victoriassecret.com]? what size should i get?
I need a S in VS tops like that. You could try them both, but I'd be surprised if the shoulders on an XS are wide enough for you. Your shoulders are wider than mine, & S fits me in that area.

Quote from kurips :
Exp clearance is on fp.
What's left to buy? Sometimes, I don't get how they decide what to put on FP.

Here are the dresses. The bra top dresses are really short.
The first one would make a really cute beach coverup.

ok just ordered some tops from vs. we'll start with that. laugh out loud there were some in clearance - what color do y'all think 'carbon' is? black or really dark grey?

thanks GH - you're right - the XS would be too narrow in the shoulders for me. i may end up using the nordstrom one that doesn't have defined shoulders bc a lot of shirts are narrow in the shoulders for me. (this is what i get for swimming every summer when i was young...)

You can always rebuy it with SRC nod They might have FS on $25 during SRC. Did you get both sizes to try? I'm curious about the fabric.

no, i didn't order. instead i got some kiss tees, most in S. i realized the ballet top dips down low in the back and i'm not sure i want that - i'd rather wear a regular bra. (but i will def order it if it goes on sale!)

i still have to check out jcp - i saw a grey tee there that's not heather. does anyone know the return policy at jcp? (i know i can just look it up...)
