Got my clearance orders yesterday. They're mostly swim pieces. I've got a lot of work to do. Got to see what matches and looks good on!

Also I just ordered this. I love the look of it. I'll be super disappointed if it doesn't fit right. I just noticed it. Is it new?

Doesn't show anywhere to put a code in. I think it's input for you if you go through that link.

"This offer is exclusive to Today Show viewers. Because of the extraordinary value of the set, no returns or exchanges will be allowed. Orders placed by May 6th at 12 noon EST will be delivered by Mother's Day, May 12th"

Looks nice though, I know Bliss products are expensive..

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

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.
laugh out loud I went to a shooting range with DH about 2 years or so ago.. His coworker was the absolute most awesome guy to hang around, he changed jobs and then we moved to another state, but DH still keeps in touch. He was no nonsense when it came to gun safety, and he invited us to go to the shooting range with him. We don't own guns, so we used his (is it wrong that I wiped the one I used afterwards, scared of fingerprints!) He regularly maintains his guns, I shot a 9mm and a .22, I liked the .22 better, not as much recoil. He loaned us big ear protectors, safety glasses, went over gun safety, etc. Was very meticulous in making sure we knew what we were doing and was answering question. I think if every gun owner was so educated and careful, there'd be less problems, but I won't get into that. I didn't think I'd ever shoot a gun, but it really was a great experience. DH's coworker didn't shoot as well as someone who'd had guns for over 3 years and practiced. He was teasing DH at work afterwards saying 'Don't mess with your wife'.. I had the target at the absolute back of the target area, and I was hitting with surprising accuracy... I saved my target from the range... (below).. an odd thing to be so proud of, when I never plan on owning a gun, nor does DH, we've had a discussion about it.

Awesome shooting!! Me and DH have almost one gun in every caliber laugh out loud rifles, revolvers and pistols. DH has a few more than me for sure but I'm catching up to him haha.

That is so cool that you and your DH were open minded enough to go with him even though you aren't gun owners. So glad you had a really responsible and respectful person to take you out too! If you're not comfortable, it is NOT a good experience. I wish everyone was like that too. DH and I are very careful and cautious too, and if we take some non gun owners out, I hope they would remember their experience fondly like you and DH do!

For some reason women are generally better shots and more accurate then men are. Not sure what it is about us that makes us more steady and focused. I say we have better nerves laugh out loud I would have kept my first target too and been proud! You did an awesome job!! (We just go shoot cans and stuff out at the farm though so nothing to really keep hehe) It's a good hobby. I know not everyone agrees with it, but it's enjoyable for us Smilie

Oh, it did make me giggle you wiped it for prints. Teehee

i was able to check out with this leather jacket in small.

i saw that last night! decided i didn't need another black leather jacket. Smilie hope you like it!
Quote from kurips :
and fits!

ordered something i'd be happy to receive for free if the jacket does not ship. i have received the email confirmation already though, and the jacket is in it... a little high for $39 laugh out loud
laugh out loud nice. i've been doing that too, but the items have been shipping. Frown i think their inventory system is getting better.

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.
...
Anyhow. Good morning everyone!
this is sad, as i prefer the coach logo to be script, not the horse and carriage. actually i prefer to be discreet with no logo at all - just the soft smooth buttah leather... that's the 1 bag that i have. Smilie i'm not too into logos and i think the horse and carriage is too big for my taste!

good morning!

nod they're very flat/no arch support, but they mold to your feet and soften so that they're pretty comfy. or at least the leather ones do. i'm not sure about the others as i've only broken in the leather ones.

nice to see you here!

so i went to vs last night to try to get the bracelet but they were out (not surprising as this store always has long lines). so i just got the free panty with bra purchase instead. i was trying to buy the full coverage angel bra but they only have larger sizes in store! they start at 32D/34C and go up to like DDD! boo - it's rare to have to go online to get my 32C/34B bras.

i grabbed another angels bra instead and used my 10 off plus i got a free angels panty, and they also let me use the wrapp code. Smilie would have been sweeter if i could combine the bracelet, but oh well...

yeah i know - there's usually a ton of 34A-B in store and no D's. so i thought that was strange - but apparently i like bras meant for larger chests. laugh out loud it's comfy and i prefer full coverage bc it disappears better under shirts!

that was fast! it takes me forever to do the returns. i'm excited to get $ back tho... they issued a refund so now my balance is positive again.

i made a huge mess doing them. i had to get out all my swim from this year and last year and see what matched then see what fit. at least it's over. i have 1 more order of swim and pink stuff that's out. i hope it fits. i want to say i'm finished for awhile but i have a stack of $10 certs and sas is about to start so i'd be lying laugh out loud.
