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!

All girls are right. You don't need to provide BI card because you can just say it was a gift and you don't have one nod

I have both. The bronzing mousse isn't as dark as the stuff from the it kit. I think you'd like both. the bronzing is instant and the clear takes a few days. The clear is harder to screw up though.

Thanks Smilie I think I'll get the mitt too.

I saw that cut out dress this weekend. I'm not a fan.

It's not just you. The clothes do add lbs to them.
I feel like VS over-edits and Express under-edits. Crazy

Bummer A few stores have a similar style- hopefully one is to your liking and sizing.
Quote from nerdicus :
Porda- nope! I decided against it. I brought the black jacket to go over a different dress, but it's so cold that I chose a different jacket instead.
...
Where are you at that it's cold? It's nearing 85 out here! (Although I see snow on the mountains...so weird).
Quote from GoHeels :

I envision a lot of fat showing on me in the cutout dress. EEK!

Like VS, I think Express could make a lot of their clothes more appealing with better pictures. I do think VS is worse though. Some of their poses look stupid. One of the Express models almost always looks heavy in photos. Maybe, she's bigger than the rest. Dontknow Using models with different body shapes is to be commended, but this one isn't attractive at all. I always wonder why they use her in so many photos.

I thought the same thing about that minus-the-leather jacket. That's one jacket that I have no desire to purchase. I don't know if it's the jacket or the picture, but it I think it's ugly.
...
I agree about shapes. Maybe it's her... maybe she's not dropping the leg back to get the angled view (since the camera adds 10lbs anyway)...IDK. She's in the green cheap peplum photo too and it made me hesitate to try that color. Maybe she's bigger without curves? In that case, why don't they throw a belt on her for the peplum or put her in defined waist styles? Scratchchin I'm thinking much too hard about this Teehee

laugh out loud i was even hesitant to suggest it thinking you could have tried it for sure.
nod I thought so too! laugh out loud
Quote from nerdicus :
I'm such a wimp. I wore my newly discovered comfy pumps yesterday and even took a 20 min stroll along the beach, but somehow by 5 my feet were hurting and I'm in flats today. Figured it wasn't worth it. Glad I brought black flats!
My feet are super pump-wimpy so I'm thinking it's awesome that you made it to 5pm at all!

I'm in h.beach. It's freezing here esp with the fog (currently 64). It def does not look like the beach right now!

Those shoes are actually really comfy. I think the heel insert I added before I came here rubbed my heel the wrong way. Otherwise I was doing well.

Flats make it a lot easier to run back to the room during break tho.

Quote from kurips :
I think I am too. But because I want one so bad, the most decent fit on me is the black S. Not shapely though, so I wore it under a jacket. Next time I wear it, I'll use a belt to cinch it in.

ETA: I haven't tried the black XS either, but the ivory XS was small.
I decided to try to alter the black lace peplum top today instead of returning it to try an XS. I tightened the torso area, but left the chest area the same. I'm pleased with the result. I think I may have figured out why so many of us are between sizes though. After I took the sides in, it was difficult to get it over my bra. They may have made the torso area larger than the size would dictate to more easily clear the chest area.

This http://www.express.com/clothing/r.../cat550015 http://www.express.com/clothing/s.../cat280011 is the model that I think is overused.

Someone here asked if Express CC upped the credit limit once close to the limit and that happened for me. Much like for VS. Good little tidbit to know Smilie
