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 haven't tried on the tulip dress recently but i really like the shape of it on me. it makes me look like i have hips. it's probably not the same as the extra fabric you're referring to. i have it in s, in gray and print.

do you have a steamer? they work good on ruching.
i don't. Frown i really need to get one. the ironing got rid of the weird bulge i was seeing, but there was still extra fabric. i think it's too big in the waist for me. it wasn't an amazing fit so i'm being Flex and returning.

i really like the shape of the dress, but like i said above, it just fit me weird. the waist was a bit loose and the ruching didn't take care of it. it looks weird. the one that i got was the black/blue print. i have a grey print coming - perhaps that one will fit better. i think it will be a really nice casual dress if i can just get a good fit!

i do think the current version has a little more fabric than last year's.

speaking of being Flex i made more express returns last night. i got back $280! Whee i still have to return DH's coat (the S fit him perfectly but he didn't like the wool bc it itches - i bought him a TNF jacket instead shake head it's more his style but i wanted to get him something different!) and i have some more packages coming this week.

i tried on the lace peplums last night and the S was loose on me. the XS was tight... i think it will fit me better when it's not that time of the month. i tried on 2 XS in store and they felt slightly different but not by much. i'm reconsidering it now.

Hopefully you'll get a better one. The one you have may just be defective.

I'm returning my tulip dress. Noticed it was $25. I' used to paying $20 or less for that style. I'll rebuy if it goes cheaper. I did get the red during the tick tock. It was $17 or $18.

That confirms the xs will be small on me. I'll still keep my s although the fit could be better. It's the best peplum fit for me. It looked very cute under a jacket. I'd just belt it on its own.

Because of the lack of coupons or sales nowadays. And we were so used to having both together.

i thought it looked nice with a pencil skirt on me. add a jacket and it'd be really cute. Smilie i swear the one i tried on the first time didn't feel that tight. i'm still in search of the elusive XS that was cut a tad larger. LMAO

We are spoiled. I think it's worth $25. I just have so many dresses that I'm being price sensitive.

I really like this dress. It's plain but I'm drawn to it for some reason.

i got so many skirts this clearance round. i got 2 herringbone (grey and teal), 1 corset (tweed), 1 green and 1 brown welt pocket, 1 black zip back. i'm still deciding on the zip back, corset, and brown. total i spent $90 on skirts! EEK!

i like the zip back because it's longer than the others and goes just a tad below my knees for a different look, but i got it in a 2. the 0 is probably a better fit though i'm surprised the 2 fit and didn't look large. maybe it's supposed to sit higher. the corset is interesting bc it's different. the brown is a nice neutral color and i don't have a brown skirt. what to do?!

my tweed shipped yesterday. so did the coat. i'm so happy because i didn't think either would ship.
i'm trying to decide if i should keep the elastic waist with the animal print around the bottom. it's kind of funky. i skipped it in store but bought it online when it popped up in my size.
