i still like it though. or i have conditioned myself to like it because i used my reward on it
I went to Sephora today and couldn't believe it - one of the Ole $10 sets from black friday was on the shelf! Score!
Liggy - I'm sorry to hear about the bosses wife.
GH - I'm sorry to hear about your sons tickets! Eek! Also, you can reply whenever you get time. It's not like I have anywhere to be
Alsy - hope your DS is feeling better!!
Nerdicus - there was something I was going to say and I forgot lol!
Tari - hope you feel better soon!
kurips - Hope you have fun on your trip, sounds so awesome!
Azn - that bra is awesome! I love it!
i have no room in my closets for all this stuff so i've just been returning things to make room! it's hard with express bc of the 90 day limit. sometimes i just need more time to decide!
i'm wary of keeping so many pencil skirts because i really don't wear them all that much to work (if i want to "dress up" i generally prefer pants). i got those 6 skirts and 4 pairs of pants from clearance, plus 2 jackets all for work purposes. that's 90+80+55. plus i got a bunch of tops (i think i'm keeping the lace yoke tee in 3 colors :facep alm: plus 2 raglan sleeve tees, so that's 55 more) i know it's cheap compared to what they'd normally cost but i really don't even need them all! :facep alm: so i've been returning casual stuff i will likely wear once and then put aside. i returned all the dresses except for 1 blouson short dress (the $10 one, bc it was only 10 and i do like it) and the shark bite ones i used a reward on. i've been giving away tees from the $5 pile to friends. when your closet gets overstuffed you find the best way to clean it out... and sometimes it's to return stuff.
the XS was extremely tight in the chest area. in fact that's the tightest part of it. i feel like i can't breathe and it's pressing on my rib cage. : ( you should still try it tho if you can because things fit us all differently, and i am puffy right now from that time of the month.
this is why it's good to have an angel card..... :evil laf:
My closet is full, & I recently donated huge trash bags full of clothes.
There can be positives to keeping unworn clothes. The top I found buried was perfect with the white lapel jacket. I really liked the jacket, but almost returned it thinking I wouldn't be able to find a top I liked with it.
I gave away a lot of the $5 tops too. They were too cheap to return, & it makes people's day when you give them a new top with tags still attached.
It doesn't sound like the XS peplum tops will fit me. It would probably be a waste of time to try them.
exp package today came with catalog coupons and the booklet coupons.
ETA: Oops, I see you already answered that.

I feel similarly about the dresses with a tight high-waist black skirt. I have that skirt, so therefore I can't buy those dresses :teeh ee:
Lace Hi-Low Hem Tee [express.com] - too short in front. Cute though. For reference- this shirt hits higher in the front than the lace yoke tees from clearance.
Lace Shoulder V-neck Tee [express.com] - Quite cute! However, these XS tops are borderline too short. I did not try it in an S. Also, with a larger chest, the shirt pulls away from you at the V and you can see through it (see the cleavage line). I'm undecided as the larger size might eliminate that problem.
Printed High-Neck Blouson Camis [express.com] - Love this and so happy XS fits. I want to pick one up for our next Hawaii trip. The length is just perfect, comes up under the arms so a strapless shouldn't show... instead of "Keep" , I should put GET since I"m waiting on rewards + sale.
Contrast Loop Chiffon Tank [express.com] - After I got done strangling myself in the straps like some Cirque De Solei flunkee, I looked in the mirror and :vo mit: . Just looked horrible on me. I'm sure someone can pull it off, but that person is not me.
The reviews on hi-lo hem tee say it runs small, even though it doesn't look like it would. Did you also feel it ran small?
I was going to try the v-neck tee in XS hoping it would come up higher & wouldn't show as much cleavage. I guess that plan won't work.
That cami is adorable. It's too bad a regular bra won't work with it.
Did they have the same exp. date?

yup, 4/7.
the xs worked for me but i liked the s better on the lace hi-lo. i originally bought the xs but exchanged it in store for s.
quoting you so you see.
funny how it was the complete opposite for me. loved it online but didnt like in person

i imagine everyone's closet here is like a walk in with auto this auto that to mix n match outfits like in the movies
i wish i had a clueless closet!
sometimes i like to keep my laundry hamper full, bc that means i have more space in my dresser drawers.

I wish there was this one particular on I was looking for in my size! They only had it in M and L
I do laundry every week. I go crazy when it clutters up, like more than 5 shirts piling up. I like my things fresh and folded. Definitely can probably go half a year without washing anything!
I found that organizing and folding and piling by type helps. I have each one organized by color - red, white, black, greens/blues, pinks, etc...
Then I have them piled up by type, so all the tees of the same color in one pile, all camis in one pile, all halters in another, all tanks, home clothes, etc... so once I pull out my drawer, I see the top item, I know what's exactly underneath. I was going mad when everything was just only organized by color. I felt a big sigh a relief when I did that!

it's seriously a disease. i tend to only wear the things i can see.
