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 just ordered the xs anyway. i'm afraid the s would be too wide since the xs was already wide. maybe the back was like how it looks on the model... i can't remember now.

i'll have to figure out another way to reorder my tulip back shirt. i paid $17 for it.

Express is trying to get us back in-store I bet. You'll still be able to use all the mailers there. It's just more of a pita. I wonder if cs would order for us. They really shouldn't put coupons in all the orders if they don't want us to use them. That's just stupid!
The stores must be complaining about all the online returns and how they're losing sales shake head

They should really stop throwing in catalogs/coupons then!

I think they've changed it so it's one type of coupon per acct. now I'm getting 3014 is invalid.
That stinks! I'm glad I don't have a lot in my wishlist at the moment. We'll have to be more careful about our orders & stop placing small orders. I'm sure that was their intention.

Quote from kurips :
I thought I read once per acct. I'm too lazy to come out of bed to recheck. Will do tomorrow. Maybe they're all different if they didn't plan their changes well.

But then it's harder to earn rewards. Plus the free shipping perk requires you to a-list first. For the store, I guess you can just not use the next to use the coupon, if they insist on one per account.
I'd rather have the coupon than the reward. I just don't like shopping in the store.

Quote from nerdicus :
I tried on the black peplum jacket again. It's tight but flattering over the right thing. I put it over my ponte knit sheath dress and I think it worked well. I then put the herringbone over the same dress. You can see the difference in size but I kinda like how the bigger one flares out more.

There's a tiny snag in the back of my herringbone jacket. That's the other reason I'm not sure about it. It's very cute tho! I'm not sure if the teal will work as well with jeans... Prob only over black pants but better with pencil skirts and slacks.
I'm thinking the same thing about that jacket. If black jeans don't look right with it, I'm returning it. I don't wear enough skirts & dress pants to get any use out of it. DH said I could keep it to wear in NC for Christmas. Do I really need a Christmas jacket? laugh out loud When I get motivated to try it on, I'll let you know what I think.

Quote from nerdicus :
It's actually kinda tight on my butt. Dh said no,but he always says no and doesn't have a good sense of work wear I think.
He probably wants you to wear a muumuu too. laugh out loud

Speaking of muumuus, I think I figure out why my DS has been acting weird about my clothes & hair. He had friends over Saturday. I had on a VS bra top dress & wedge sandals. One of his best friends, whom I know well, said I was looking good. I'm sure he was talking about the weight loss, because we've known him for years. This kid has the best of intentions, but has a habit of saying the wrong thing. It made me a little uncomfortable, & I knew he was just trying to make me feel good. He probably said something similar to DS at some point thinking it would make him feel proud. Instead it probably embarrassed him.

i think they mean it this way, hence the whole site updating. looks like they're overhauling because they're doing the everyday fs on $125. they're becoming more like vs.
That will save me a lot of money. I rarely shop at VS.

i don't think you need a christmas jacket. i def think that jacket is less versatile due to its shape. it's a lot more businessy.

i thought it was funny that i inadvertently said the jacket was good paired with a pencil skirt and slacks. laugh out loud my 3 piece suit...

nod he's always telling me things are too tight. shake head

The stores are just too dumb to realize that we spend more money when we shop online. It's not like I'm going to shop there. I'm just not going to shop laugh out loud.

they'll realize it next year and it'll be too late. shake head

they never seem to understand. i argued with them for a long time during storewide 30% off. i told them how the online system handles the coupons better/differently and they wouldn't change it. i told them i could just go home and order everything and get it shipped for free, and still they wouldn't even match how the online system would handle coupons.

i really don't mind taking my returns to that bigger store. they seem to be sticklers but are good at handling online returns. i hope my smaller store gets better inventory so i can do my shopping there! there are some b!tchy employees but for the most part they have been nice to me at the smaller store. (i know of 1 employee in general - i will just avoid him)

That's the main reason I love shopping online. I started doing it after I had my baby. I get better deals and don't have to deal with as many stupid people laugh out loud.

Is your 3-piece suit covered up enough for your DH? Teehee Mine is the opposite! DH never thinks anything is tight enough, but looking at how his mom and sister size themselves, they never think that either LMAO That dress is fine for work I tell ya'!

Blah! It looks like you can only use one of the codes in the PM I sent, so choose wisely. Sorry, the site is so weird that it looked like it worked for me.

Also, I finally updated the wiki in the sephora thread. I was really getting sick of trying expired codes. I really wish there were better codes available.
hug Was very sweet of you to share! It also made me try the $10 Off booklet Q (which I hadn't used yet, but now I've taken care of that as well Evil). This 1x-use code thing is going to save us all a lot of money!

PS - love that boatneck top. Thanks for the rec. I paired the coral one with the brown/gray high-waist bandage skirt and DH Drool but it didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Smilie
