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'm curious how this will work out as well. I've been keeping pictures of the stuff I've been getting at VS, but I see that I should probably do it for Express as well. When I finally go through my stuff once a year, I'm constantly surprised at the things I have. shake head

Please keep us posted. If it works, it'll be something I'd wanna do too Smilie
My data form did not work... maybe I'll see if I can get DH to code something when he gets home... I feel like I waste time trying stuff on again that's in my closet just to remember what it looks like on or to get ideas for packing. I bet something already exists out there.

Just got this tank [express.com] in the mail today. It's super cute.....I'm glad that it's a little more fitted than it looks on the model. It could easily be dressed up or down. Hope everyone had a good week! Not sure if it has already been mentioned, but BBV bras are buy one get one for $25 this weekend in store.
Wave Daily post, check! laugh out loud

. . .

also, i got a HUGE box of shoes from amazon today. a bunch of them are going back, but i tried those nine west pumps in 7.5 that i got earlier this week in 7 and the 7.5 is an amazing fit. they're not large at all, and they don't make that farty noise anymore! woot however, i'm not sure about the taupe color i got. it's a couple shades darker than my skin color so it's not a great nude shoe, but they are soooo comfy. i guess now that i know i definitely want these shoes, i can order from somewhere else... but they tend to be pretty pricey everywhere. should i just get them in black as a simple black pump to go with all my new skirts?

i also got some naturalizer black pumps that are pretty comfortable, with 2" heels, real leather, for $30. i feel like that was a great deal. should i keep those, and also get these nine west pumps in black? haha not sure what to do...
Glad the portofino worked out for you. I'm puzzled about colors as well. Right now they all seem so bold. Shoes- if it's not the right nude, you'll probably think that every time you put them on. I'd get them both in black. I have a 2" black and a 3" black pump. They do serve different purposes for those of us that have a hard time doing 3" for very long. There is a nude shoe I found at Payless that I'm loving right now. I need to go back and size down (they have it in both regular and wide widths). Karmen Pump [payless.com] . Read the reviews posted by the men, they posted photos too EEK! laugh out loud Very padded footbed, narrow in the heel region, wider in the forefoot - plenty of room for toes to spread out.

Not sure if you girls know this: free shipping with BRASHIPVS (exp 2/25 not sure). I was able to use it with SPRING13 and the duffel bag code
Thanks Smilie I wasn't aware of a valid FS Code besides the $100 ones.

shake head i was like, wtf?! Blink

i want a leather, not a patent leather. i don't know why but i just love this heel so much - it fits me so well~! i really wish the grey ones worked out - they were cheaper and i like the color. the taupe isn't that bad and i would wear it with brown tones, but it's definitely not the perfect nude - nowhere near. i guess i should track down some black ones... right now i can only find black suede but i'm not sure if suede will fit as well as the leather.

does anyone know if amazon returns need to all be sent back at once? or would i be able to send back the other ones, and then send these back also later on?

Sephora Return inside a JCPenney. Seems different every store. I had my online invoice which had the prices (they did need that). They called the Sephora 1-800 number to confirm who knows what... then did a "No Receipt Return", incl. ID swiping and categorized everything I returned as 'defective', even though it wasn't... On the plus side, they did return everything to my CC, even though one order was 90% GC. woot I'll take it! Red333 is right about the 3 little wonders holiday sets. The SA's at JCP told me they found some in the drawer and bought them all themselves Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) . Keep your eyes peeled and open those drawers!

OK, then how about this one [jcpenney.com]? I'm thinking this was inspired by barber shop covers to keep hair off your clothes. laugh out loud

This is all your fault BTW... you commenting on a JCPenney GC... I clicked on "Contemporary" and found all kinds of gems! bounce
I was also at JCP earlier tonight and they have some nice stuff (or mine has a good buyer). A lot of it is very similar to Express stuff.

Censored OK, my bad experience with Express CS.... So I spent a $90 reward and a $10 reward on an order, to have my re-buy of a peacoat go OOS on me ($50).
  • First time I call (to the special CR line), they say it should automatically re-instate the reward within a week (which we all know not to be true, and probably only possible if there is only 1 item in the order).
  • Second time I call (today, to the regular sales line), they say they can't do anything about it, that it is just lost. They offered me free overnight shipping Angry That gave me nightmares of K's days with Express so I said I wasn't interested.
  • Third time I call (5 min later, special CR line), I am told they cannot re-instate a partial reward (i.e. $50 on a $90 reward)...Part of me thinks they can't do anything besides $15 increments (so duh, gimme 2 $15's and 2 $10's!). Since I had previously bought the exact same coat, I requested a credit for the coat from the order. She checked with her superior, again, no. They will however give me $50 off 1 item from online and there is a note on my account about it. Fragglefreakingfragglefarker.
I'd be so pissed EEK!.

Thanks for the offer, I have plans to go look tomorrow and will report back Smilie don't wanna trouble you.

BM duties is okay. We have a half a day slave work tomorrow. She's no longer doing brownies in a mug, just colored candies. Phew!! After that I will drop by the mall to look for the DA bra Whee
Yay for no more ugly brownies in a mug! bounce Colored candies is so much easier. Good luck with the rest of the BM duties! Smilie
