the shift dress in xs
i like it for the very same reason nerdi didn't like it. i have narrow shoulders and this works as true boatneck for me. i like the look on me at the top and arms. at the bottom, i'm not sure - it's a little big and i'm unsure about the gold. my life outside the house happens during the day, and the gold, while not very shiny, could be too much. this was the only color option at first. bought for $26-28.

i used my own belt because the elastic one provided is way too small. i believe the blue does not come with belt and loops anymore. if i keep this, i might have to cut the loops because they look weird if i wear without belt.
it's a lot cuter on you.
i see a baby hiding in those pics too! so cute he's always in them!

does anyone have over the knee boots? i tried some on at macys the other day and i thought they felt funny. i'm wondering if you get used to having something on your knee when you walk.

i thiiiiink it is 1800 411 5116 ? i haven't called yet but it is the only customer # i remember besides sephora laugh out loud
Quote from nerdicus :
the sweater dress? is it longer than the liggy dress? kuz otherwise... scandalous again...

this happened to me too. when i called them last night they said they don't see the code on their end. seems like their system is kicking out codes randomly for no apparent reason. they will fix it for you, but you will probably need to call. i tried twice by email and they didn't even answer my question. :sha ke:

express - FS on 125 is standard every day now. also, coupons appear to work on clearance for the time being which is awesome if anything ever comes BIS. unfortunately it's harder to catch the clearance items in stock when you're trying to get enough to get FS. which is why you need a next cc! (also, they seem to have fixed my points issue -- but that doesn't really concern you. : P )
Thanks, I hope I won't have to explain a lot to CSR because I am not in mood to even talk much laugh out loud thats why I haven't called yet Embarrassment
I am glad to see $125 FS for everyday now bounce so all we have to do now is to Biker as soon as their clearance gets updated?

Quote from PordaPoddy :
I'm glad you're doing better :comfo rt: I did not get your reply! Sorry about the weekender shipping snafu, Aznflame just fixed that by calling in. They must be familiar with the problem now so it should be easier.
Awesome! You could probably pair the more adventurous color purchases with MU remover. "...because teal doesn't go with every outfit, let's make sure it comes off at the end of the day" :lo l:

:no d: scandalous for me too. Just wore the tulip black/blue leopard dress out last night and even with nylons, told DH "LMK if you see any naughtybits peeking out" :tongu e: I think I'm much more comfortable in skirt/top combos.
Wait, which dress is scandalous ? I think my dress shrinks a little after each wash because it is shorter than tunic length now and impossible to wear without leggings OMG
It being sweaterdress if anything I would expect it to stretch. Did anyone of you notice this with that houndstooth dress?
It is still cute though Teehee

I am sorry about pm reply. I did send it. I know it for sure because I send one reply to nerdi too that day after I sent yours. Now when I checked Nerdi's shows in my sent folder yours doesn't. There was nothing much that I said. I really appreciate you taking time and giving me all the details hug specially what not to wear part, you Rock

btw, from what I know all your naughtybits are peek worthy Wink

i have one pair of stuart weitzman's and they look funny if i'm not careful since i'm petite. you can probably get more use out of them since you're taller.

do they feel funny when you wear them? i just ordered a pair of nine west ones from their site. they were $80 and i tried them at macys last week and they were soft and comfy leather, except the front hit my knee. i will have to try them out for a longer period of time to see how my knees feel. they were the only high boots i could find in brown in my size! (actually i'm not sure if 7.5 will fit - i forgot if i tried 7 or 7.5 at macys)

They bother me on the back side of my knee. When it bends, they feel strange.

If anyone sees anything at Express that's showing limited quantity, please post. Please It may be something one of us want & don't know it's quickly disappearing.

Thanks

i know. i'm not used to it either... but it's easier to call him DH than it is to call him "husband". :te ehee:

i really like the looks of these [6pm.com] but they're only available in 5-6.5. (taupe and medium brown avail in 5) i've been looking for cognac riding boots forever! : ( i haven't tried them yet tho so i don't know if they're comfortable, but i usually have good luck with comfort with nine west shoes.


ugh. great, thanks. i haven't returned anything yet. how annoying! thanks for the HU.
Those are cute. I haven't checked 6pm in a while. I hope you find what you're looking for. If I happen upon any in your size, I'll let you know.

I'm also looking for some Mary Jane style shoes or similar with a wedge heel. I have boots, heels, clogs, sandals, flip flops, & tennis shoes, but nothing casual to wear when I don't want to wear tennis shoes & boots are too dressy. It really needs be something very casual, but with a heel. I like to cheat & add height with my shoes. Embarrassment

I was thinking the same thing. It's so adorable that he's always around her legs. It makes me want her to come & visit so I can play with the baby.

i'm still not getting fs. i just realized though this screw-ups may be because they're starting a new earning period.

my next overview page doesn't show a status.

points history page doesn't show a-list? mine says:
POINTS HISTORYWelcome, nerdicus!
Points Balance: 11795 (as of 3/01/13)
EXPRESS NEXT ID: ***********
Tier : A-List

did you try a different browser? maybe ff needs to be updated, if you're trying ff. that's the only browser that's working for me (but i haven't tried IE).

just ordered a peacoat in blue, bc there was some odd discount saved in my account. has anyone tried to use the same code again? their system has a lot of kinks in it right now. i got to use the 30 off 75 tier even tho i didn't enter a new promo code. i'm probably confusing them with the different browsers that i'm using. laugh out loud this was on IE.

*edit* oops forgot cashback that time. laugh out loud got too excited for the extra tier discount. oh well! peacoat for $31 is a great deal!

psa: red's alpaca sweater bis in grey, xs. with tier code it's a great deal! i like it enough to keep for $10. (there were 8 left when i ordered)

did you get tulip dress in xs? the s is not that scandalous in length for me, but i think i may need xs to not have that weird pocket of emptiness the excess fabric creates.
. . . .
XS. In S it just sags/hangs... I don't know what to do with it. My VS sweaterdresses are the same.

Tulip Hem Raglan Sleeve [express.com] is scandalous short for me. Actually, the houndstooth sweaterdress was too so I returned both the XS and S. No worries about the PM - You can see I take my sweet time in responding to them myself Teehee Glad I could be of some help Comfort


WHAAAAT do you know of my naughtybits? OMG Roll I swear I only had 1 drink that night!

The stripe ponte sheath dress [express.com] definitely has the non-scandalous length! Had to try it after I saw Alvs review. On first inspection, it does not appear to be see-thru at all Smilie Very versatile - dress up/dress down, sexy but still conservative in length and neck cut. Accentuates curves and black sides slim.
