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!

Speaking of purses - B. Makowsky leather handbags are amazing. I have this one [ebay.com] . They retail similarly to Coach, but you can find them at TJ Maxx for ~$100. I had never heard of the brand before but the leather is just like butter and this bag has a cell phone pocket on the outside that I will never go without again. No more digging for the ringing phone! Now I can defer the calls myself laugh out loud

I'll be out of the loop for a while, happy shopping girls Surf

Either you have linked this dress more than once or shared pics of it more than once, that's how I know how much you love it laugh out loud It does look quite cute and love that you can
I like the ruffles on that dress. The skirt might be a little big for your petite frame. Maybe a thicker belt will define it more? Ooooh, another potential job for the obi-wan belts!
I like that dress without the belt best. I've decided I don't want it. Much better on hanger and I just don't love it.

That's a different black and white dress. The other one has 3/4 sleeves. Geez my clothes are starting to look alike. Maybe it's time for an express break Teehee.

I think so. The fabric is nice and thick. You could always wear shape wear too.

why'd you buy a gun?

im picky about purses..but i recently saw a new brand at tjmaxx called emma fox.. and they have some cute leather handbags. they cost as much as coach tho.. n so far the colors have been either white or green lol white i'll get dirty n green is a bit much...
Me and DH like to shoot nod I think it's a fun hobby and it's pretty empowering too. It's not for everyone, but I really enjoy it. I LOVE the Emma Fox bags too! I went home after seeing one and looked it up online, they seem to hold up really nice Smilie
Quote from nerdicus :
the only coach bag i have is not from factory, but from the store. i guess i can rest easy...? laugh out loud
They are all nice, but I do like store bags better nod

Quote from tarribear :
I have always bought from the Outlet. But lately it seems there stuff is not holding up as well. Main complaint is the straps peeling. My daughter recently took hers in and they sent it in for her and charged her $20 and then they tell my daughter they can't fix it and wanted to just give her a 40% off coupon. I guess they no longer give you the price of the purse now. Maybe to many people abused it. But I have only sent one in and I hmmed at hawed when I got a letter saying they could return it or I could have x amount in merchandise credit. Because of this new rule and them scanning ID's when you return I won't be buying that much from them any more. It seems more and more places are getting stingy and not guaranteeing their product like they said they would.
I think they will give you the price of the purse if it is less than 3 years old, or at least that has been my experience. I've never returned any factory purses though, only boutique bags I had issues with. I'm sorry your experiences haven't been good. Their prices for the outlet keep going up too!
Quote from azn1x6flame :
Thanks for the info. I almost freaked out when I saw a F on my bag that I got at the regular store in the mall. Had to re-read that it was after the dash.

All this is good to know. I can pass it along to friends who gloat about their awesome deal for a bag from the outlet so they know what they're actually getting. shake head
Definitely let them know! Also, 99% of bags that have the "Coach" logo as the word Coach written in script on the bag instead of a horse and carriage or something are factory bags too.

I heart B. Makowsky bags. Do you know that is Kathy Van Zeelands husband? You wouldn't catch me dead with one of her bags (I know they may be for some people, but NOT me) but Bruce's bags are amazing. The leather is like butter and I found a steal on one at Marshalls a few years ago that hooked me - it was a large purple leather bag marked down to $49.99 (orig $358). It was SO amazing but I'm a nice girl and let my mom have it. Dumb me.



Anyhow. Good morning everyone!
