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!

Ah yes, those CAN shrink. It happened to me. So I just hang them out to dry and pulled them down on the arms and bottom and created a lot of length like that. Otherwise they were becoming awkward to wear as crop top sweaters shake head
Ahh. Yeah my stretching didn't seem to go much good. Oh well, I'm liking the Express V-neck ones.

Quote from nerdicus :

petals jean legging - this fit me better in 2 but i'm not in love with the material - it's too stretchy. the 4 feels almost the same, but has whisking at the crotch signifying there's too much material there. there is also room in the waist in the 4. not sure if i love it for $14... i might have worked with it for $8 but i didn't reorder during the sale. oh well.
didn't reorder mines either. if i did it would have been my 4th order laugh out loud 1st reorder was to get a bigger size, the next to get a better price, didn't want to do another with bogo.

now we are tied at 3 minus the leather jackets Teehee these jackets make me feel rocker chic Punk

i like the color and the pattern but still unsure about the style and amount of stretch. the other stella jeggings i have are the thicker jean material and i think they make my legs look better a teeny bit (but they're not as comfy bc they're more rigid so that's a concern).

i'll keep them around as a maybe. i think they would have looked good with my outfit today in place of my vs twill pencil pant in olive (paired with limited sweater [thelimited.com]).

Teehee about the minus leather jackets. it's so hard to resist them at such a cheap price.

i only have 1 of those vs sweaters in ivory (no fading! laugh out loud) in M. the S probably would have been too short on me by now... Teehee i hate when tops shrink in length! my belly is far too flabby to be wearing cropped anything...

i got an express one from clearance and they're super long! laugh out loud i don't think it'll ever become crop sweater...

the vs one was better in terms of not being too low cut.

Which ones are those? I guess I haven't seen them? Maybe that's a good thing so I won't stock up!!

Edit: Do you mean these? [express.com]

I think they're too fancy for me to wear at home. I heart these!

H2S is about quantity of deals, not quality (nor quality checking). The more exposure she gets to her ads running on the side, the better. What's the impetus to get more than say 75% accurate with your deals? shake head

Thanks! Yes, F21 Queen should see what her subjects are wearing in her queendom laugh out loud

Yeah, I had an S... I'm definitely buying more M in fitted styles from VS now. DH gets polos from AE that crop up after a few washes too... only he doesn't notice... I do... while we're out Doh The Express ones are longer, I love that! I do cami-layer nearly all of the Express ones.

Yes, they make them in a non-fitted version too and when I'm paying attention, I order fitted in S and regular in XS. Too fancy?! I know the feeling though... I like them so much I almost don't want to wear them when I'm just getting the mail, taking trash out or going for a walk - to avoid extra wear & tear Girly

Quote from hba123 :
I stacked the umbrella with the free ship on swim and beauty clutch.
Did you do that recently? If so, was the umbrella on your order confirmation? I placed an order about 30 min. ago. The umbrella was showing when I submitted the order, but isn't on my confirmation or order status. DH called (it was his acct.) & she said they were OOS. I couldn't get the clutch, because I used the code slot for the umbrella. I don't really care about missing on the clutch, but I wanted the umbrella. Next time I won't wait until the last minute to order. Frown

:n od: If it's not my family, it's DH's. Do boring families exist? :scra tch:Yeah, I like spilling my beans to my hair person, but never about anyone in the local community. Just like a quick therapy sesh to get stuff off the chest. That seems like a form of social suicide.
My family is way too predictable. They'll call & talk for an hour about the same old things. For some reason, they think I care about what they fix for dinner, which of their friends did what, & what their schedule looks like this week. I'm always fortunate enough to get updated on people I don't even know, but they're certain I should know them. They forget I left there 18 yrs. ago. The worst part is I didn't care what people were doing, when I lived there & did know everyone. Why they think I would care now is beyond me. They worry what everybody thinks & call upset when someone in the family is doing something the nosy people up there may deem gossip worthy. Somehow, it reflects on all of us. shake head I don't get it, because I really couldn't care less what anyone thinks. Sometimes, I wish they'd call to tell me something interesting. laugh out loud If I didn't look just like my dad, I'd think I'm adopted. Stick Out Tongue

Totally agree. I hate that she sends people on wild goose chases. For a few years every time limited would do the $10 fashion cash she would mention the hair accessories that hadn't been in-stock in forever. Just makes me mad when people have sites they're making money on and don't check out the deals. Most of her stuff is target or drugstore related and I don't follow those deals so I can not speak to their accuracy, but a lot of the deals she posts for the stores I shop at are way off.

Ooooh family Facepalm I get updated in person, just before I'm about to leave for a brunch w/ the person of gossip. This past weekend for example: "She was so upset they weren't invited to your wedding, she was crying to her mom, I heard all about it" Frown Why she held onto this information for 5 years? Just to gut punch me before I leave. $#@$! I prefer the phone, put that sucker on mute and get some housework done laugh out loud

Yes. I don't see it on their site now. Is yours Ivory? If so, I already have it, thanks Tongue

nod Yep. Her d-store stuff that I followed was mostly accurate and I suspect straight-up copied without credit, but other stuff... oye.

I did it yesterday and it shipped today with everything on the confirmation and ship email.
