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!

that's a really sweet tradition. Hope your ds carries it on as well

I hope you're making many many baskets with $100 worth of candy :om g:
So few people carry on traditions now. I hope he will too.

That's for 2 baskets plus a couple things for DH's basket. Embarrassment That's why I need help. I can't seem to stop myself. There are so many ethnic candies he hasn't tried that I can't eliminate any. Anything made in the US is getting eliminated. laugh out loud It's hard to eliminate candies I haven't tried though, so I've been putting most of the other candy in my cart. shake head

the dress was definitely on the longer side - good for me and the other taller ladies, but i'm not sure if it'd be too long on you shorter ladies. they have so few dresses that are longer tho - i really think it's dumb they don't make petite sizing. i mean - they have jeans in 'short' inseam so they obviously know of the issue!

the shorts definitely had wide leg holes - i like the look on me personally as opposed to the smaller leg holes of the crochet shorts. have you tried the striped knit peplum? it makes me look super busty so it may be too much for you larger chested ladies (remember alvs thought it might be too much for her). it's a very cute top tho!
I agree they need petite sizes. They seem to cater most of their tops, dresses, & skirts to the shorter set. Either that or most of us like our dresses & skirts longer than typical women. From my perspective, most of the shorts are really too short for anyone. The 3 1/2" shorts I have from VS are on the short side for me.

You should know by now that I can't remember anything. Blush I had forgotten the conversation about that peplum top. Now that you mention it, I do remember that. I haven't tried it yet. I'm waiting on a sale. Hopefully, it won't look obscene on me. I don't know what else I'd wear the salmon shorts with.

Either your legs are a little bigger than mine, or my glow-in-the-dark skin gives the illusion of smaller legs. The shorts look great on you. They don't look the same on me. They fit well everywhere else. As kurpee mentioned, the waist is a little big, but it doesn't pucker on me with the belt. I really like them.

having the target redcard just came in super handy in ordering a gift for a friend's baby shower. : ) i assume the "good" stuff had not been taken yet because it was only available online and no one wants to pay $7 shipping on a $20 item. problem solved with redcard! glad the FS applies to registry items as well.
Target Redcard is a great card. I keep talking about getting the Debit card. I need to look into it to see the deposit requirements, etc., so I can send DH to get one. I'm glad you found your friend's gifts for a good price. woot

Does anyone know if Stila carries single eyeshadow color that is close to their Bare eyeshadow from the In The Light palette? The similar shades in my Naked 1 and 2 palettes are too sheer and don't seem as smooth as the stila shadow and I'm almost out of that 1 color from the stila palette. >_> I'm not sure if I want to buy another In the Light for just 1 or 2 shadows.

I scored! They took 40% off the 30% off sale price of the colorblock dress nerdi modeled. Would have gotten more dresses this way if the sa was going to allow it but dh was in a hurry. He ruins my strategery.
Eta: i used booklet coupon.

Nice deal! Woot That's cheaper than I got mine. Did your store have the cheap peplum tops http://www.express.com/clothing/z.../cat610008 & the color block jersey shell top http://www.express.com/clothing/c.../cat320062? My store didn't have either.

anyone tried this dress on? i haven't seen it. i want to order it with $30 off $75, and don't want to waste the one-time opportunity to use the coupon.

About vs kiss tees: this one [victoriassecret.com] has 'Victoria's secret' on the tag and is thin but made of very soft cotton - I liked the material better than the other kiss tee that looks similar but is more the traditional knit tee that has 'tee shop' on the tag.

Is it long on you? What I've did you end up with?

Did you see my Peekaboo lace cap sleeve dress by any chance?

it is long, but it's just right. i tried only the 4. i figured if you're not comfy with 2, moreso me. i was trying on stuff crazy fast Facepalm my 3 guys were left in the car because baby was sleeping. i returned stuff and just as i entered the fitting room, dh called me telling me to hurry up. i just brought the dress to check out and was going to not buy it if they didn't allow the coupon.

i bought the 4 1/2' denim shorts, and you black/white vertical/horizontal stripe tee.

i didn't see it.

Salmon shorts can really be worn with any black, grey, white, beige shirt. Could be striped or patterned too, as long as it's a neutral color.

It's prob bc the shorts hit higher on my thighs than on yours. They're def wide but I like the room. If I got 6" shorts tho ( I'd guess that's the equivalent since I'm 4-5" taller) I'd want them to be narrower at the opening. I also prefer my shorts to sit lower so I like the room on the waist!

no coupon on the tee... it scanned $29.94 and i used an exchange receipt. i used $15 off $30 on the shorts. i want more of these shorts!!! i'm keeping the black/white print (returning the ikat because it's also black/white). i'm targetting one of the cotton sateens next.
hope your dress works out!
