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!

The sensitivity part makes me not want to do whitening lol.

Still check. Mine all showed free but my card was charged.
This is probably why my gc was depleted and the shipping confirmation of the stuff in stock said I was short 5.xx. This is a mess.

NY&Co has FS on any order and 30% off with code 3380 thru Monday. Prices are good for most items IMO.
Thanks

My shipment confirmations had the incorrect amount listed, so you should be okay. You could always double check just in case.

Thanks ladies. I was hoping to be in the clear. I don't have a VS CC, but I'll check the cards I used.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
I feel like those things make the luggage more heavy and I don't want to strain DH's back or mine when we have to sling it into the car. Also - it's easier for me to buy skincare/MU (D-store works for emergencies) than clothes. For our trip to Hawaii I packed 3 dresses, 3 coverups, 6 swimsuits, 1 pant (convertible to shorts), 2 shorts, 1 bra, 2 sock and still ended up near 45lbs?! That almost exceeds the weight for a regular checked back much less a carryon. Why are things so heavy? : (
good strategery! We'll be out of town, but if they turn it on Friday night, I'm on it! :woo t2:
Oh no, I forgot about being out of town for Memorial Day weekend. I most likely won't be here on Friday. Frown Thanks for the heads-up, so I'll have time to try to figure something out.

How long were you gone? I would make it maybe 2 days with those clothes & that's with washing & drying the bra overnight. laugh out loud You're nicer to your DH than I am to mine. Blush

I think my fav swim bottom is officially thebanded bottom [victoriassecret.com].:
I almost ordered those, but went with the metallic ones instead. Did I goof? Sadwalk

Quote from PordaPoddy :
Mall Report - Express - I tried on the handkerchief dress and I actually liked it quite a bit! It's a good length on me and the room in the bust allows the dress to stay at the intended length and not pull up. It might be better for a longer torso. It is double lined on top. I took photos at a few angles so I'll post them all.

Attachment 1999106 Attachment 1999108 Attachment 1999110I tried the sleeveless Portofino and felt it was a little blah on me. I'm kind of liking the black colorblocked portofino with the white sides... Although when you put your arms down it has the effect of making you look wider. I want to say, the Bird Portofino and the black/white colorblock one are *definitely* cut shorter (esp in front) than the regular solid color portofinos.


Victoria's Secret - Today some SA insisted that the terms on the back of my $10 Reward card meant I needed to pay at least $10 OOP after Q. :hu h: I pulled out my older reward to see if the terms had changed and nope. The convo went like this:
SA: You need to make at least a $10 purchase to use this card
Me: Yes, that's right - these panties are $12.50
SA: The cards all say this on the back now, that you must make a $10 purchase
Me: (Nods) Yes, and this panty costs twelve dollars and fifty cents.......which is more than $10 (trying as hard as I can not to drip with sarcasm)
SA: It would only be $2.50
Me: (deep breath) I'm going to have to ask for a second opinion on this...
SA: - speaks into her secret service mic, tells other agent facts but adds "... but it would only be $2.50 and she needs to purchase $10!!!" :an noyed:
new SA walks up: Hi so the customer wants to use both of these rewards on this one item?
Me: No, just 1
new SA: So... ?
Me: We disagree on the terms of the card. I believe this $12.50 panty meets the terms of a $10 purchase, while she is saying that I need to pay $10 OOP after Q.
new SA (throws SA a look, then says to me): So which reward did you want to use- how about the one that expires first? Let's do that - OK. (walks away)
Original SA's face totally drops, demeanor changes completely.
Me to original SA: Sorry, I don't normally push stuff like this, but I was wondering if the policy had changed.
SA: ALL cards say that now, she was just honoring the coupon for you as a courtesy. :bo mb:




:w ave: Hello, re-train this one please!
She was probably new & you did her a favor. She learned something. I bet she won't make that mistake again.

told you the bird one had higher pockets! Stick Out Tongue that dress looks super cute on you! glad that it's a longer dress (sorry alvs)... i'll have to add to my wish list. what size?

i'd like to trade if you still have one (if the FS hasn't expired... which one is it?)
Quote from desitt :
hi all, i havent shopped for VS bras for a while so im a little lost and wish someone could help. My fav everyday bra used to be the Ipex, which is no longer available. I was wondering which would be more similiar to it, the Fabulous or the showstopper? I'm aiming towards those two cause im not a fan of the Body by Victoria fabric (seems like it wont stand many washes). Any opinion/suggestion/recommendation would be greatly appreciated!
TIA!
i think the showstopper is very similar to the ipex, if i'm remembering correctly. i think i used to own a few ipex bras before they were discontinued. when i saw the showstopper i thought it was a rerelease.

the fabulous has more stuff going on - more padding, push up, etc. the fabulous is also more feminine and prettier, if that makes any difference to you.

i'm not sure if the fit of the showstopper is the same as the old ipex lines though - your best bet would be to try on in store to see what fits you better.

i got to wear my white/black bandage dress, striped maxi (ny&co), bronze lace top with black bandage dress this weekend. i also wore my polka dot portofino and tulip back rolled sleeve shirt. i think i got the most compliments for the portofino. laugh out loud the bronze lace bandage dress was great though - comfy for a night out but also sexy with a push up (plus you can wear a regular bra).

i'm tired of vs and their shenanigans. i think i'll just give away my codes. it's just ridiculous that they keep overcharging. that can't be legal.

i've been away all weekend and most of my loveswim orders have shipped now. i'm scared to look at my cc...
