New name, same girls!

Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

That was fast! Mine is $30! I hope it comes soon! Wonder if I should buy swim or wait?

You think express will start the memorial day sale tomorrow night?
i didn't even know i was getting an angels reward. i've been returning stuff so i figured i'd still have negative points.

i'll wait for red to chime in about the mem day sale... i have no idea. i just got my minus leather white tweed jacket from tick tock that i ordered with reward. i do love the fit of that jacket the best - since i get S it's usually a little wide for me but this one fits me well. Smilie (kurpee now where are we with the count? laugh out loud) i haven't bothered to try on the tanks yet. hope they fit!

What happens in the get drunk and screw song?
I have seen a few kids, it gets roundly for sure! Tailgating part is the best part, to be honest didn't notice at he actual concerts if there were many kids. A lot of singing ... (No lewd acts by Jimmy), can have a lot of "special cigars" though.

I've listened to his concerts on the xm radio and he always talks about kids being in the audience. I know one he even did a pg drunk and screw song. He was dying to go until I told him I was buying him a parrot costume then he decided he thought that was weird and doesn't want to go. We'll get a sitter if we go. I just need to find one in Chicago.

finally went through charges on the angels card. looks like there were 3 additional swim charges. 2 were put back, one as "other adjustment". Annoyed i know i will have an issue with that one later.

at least the fs with clothing pin seemed to work ok.

does anyone know if the cert stacks with new angels rewards? i got a $15 one in the mail.
Mine did.. If you call in the order, use 3 codes, then say you have an angel reward too.. that usually works for me.. since the thing says combines with anything and counts as cash practically..

Thanks : ) Yes, I can definitely see how it would be too big on you. If they had a smaller size, I would have tried it!
:whe e: I want 40% Off the whole site with Q's allowed on Friday. Thursday would be fine too. :n od:

Yeah I ordered a sewing machine from FP and had to get 1-day shipping so that I wouldn't miss delivery ($4 upgrade was cheaper than $6 hold UPS charges).

We had 9 nights in HI. I wasn't counting the bra I was wearing. I also had a sports bra. Oh forgot to mention I brought 3 light tops. Most of the time I used my swim suit as the bra and underwear. I wanted to be prepared to hop in the water at any time.

The weight is more about me wanting to be able to be self-sufficient in case of _fill_in_the_blank__ :blu sh: . This is my overthinking (I'm not judging any of you, this is my own self-guilt) - I don't want to be a burden and I don't want to put myself ahead of anyone else's needs just b/c I can't make a decision on what to bring. DH & I had a chat about this not too long ago and he mentioned that he struggles to pack b/c his clothes are so much bigger than mine - for him to pack a pair of shoes - it's almost a no go, and his pants/shorts take up a ton of room. With all that considered, I look at DH trying to fit into the same size suitcase as mine, and think about how much more I can bring than him - so I'll allow myself that. Now if it's a road trip... all bets are off! :gi rly: :tee hee:

No goof! I have the metallic ones too! The ruched side (hipkini) bikini ones show more side leg than either the foldovers or regular bikini bottoms.
Let's cross our fingers for the Express sale to start on Thurs. bounce

At this point, my DH knows paying extra for baggage is a vacation expense. Facepalm I'm even worse for road trips, if that's possible. Embarrassment

I also wear my swim suits under clothes to the beach, if I'm not planning to get in the water. I can see why you didn't need as many undergarments as you would have needed on a different vacation. Your discipline when packing is admirable. I wish I could find the discipline to pack more practically. Every trip I say I'm going to do better, but I never do. shake head

I hope the metallic bottoms look okay on me. If not, I'll be kicking myself for not getting the other ones.

Quote from nerdicus :
ok i just went through all the sale ones. i had no idea the siren had a mid-rise and a low-rise version!

i think you should try the vs love. it's made for curvy figures so that may be what you need. looks like it's only available in longer inseams however, unfortunately. i thought someone raved about the fit of those in here, but i could be remembering wrong.
http://www.victoriassecret.com/cl...ueType=OLS

there is also a high rise skinny on sale:
http://www.victoriassecret.com/cl...ueType=OLS

if you have a free returns code, i would try those 2 and a mid-rise siren and see which you love the best. i generally wear a 2 in vs jeans - they fit more snug than a 2 in express jeans for me (express has more stretch so it feels bigger to me). i'm not sure if those codes are working on these sale items tho.

oh! i also like the pencil - to me it often fits similar to the stella skinny leg (not the jeggings) - but i've also tried some vs pencil jeans that were extremely unflattering. those are probably a higher rise than my low 5 but they still fit me well and are flattering. Dontknow i have no idea why i love some and hate others.


cute! love the wings.
Thanks for the help. I'm going to order the first pair for sure. What do you think about these http://www.victoriassecret.com/sa...earch=true ? My black jeans I wear regularly are starting to fade. You're making me wonder if I should order a 2 or 4 in VS jeans. Most of my size 2 Express jeans fit perfectly. I definitely couldn't wear a smaller size. I only have one pair that are big, & I don't like wearing them. My VS Eva shorts from last year are 2s. How does the sizing of those compare to their jeans? I want to be able to zip them, w/o having to lay on the bed. Stick Out Tongue

Watching CNN. Looks like a bomb exploded in Oklahoma. So sad.
I turned the channel to CNN to see what you were talking about. That's heartbreaking. We were just talking about tornadoes. They're definitely scary. I feel so bad for everyone involved in this disaster. Frown

The damage looks awful. So scary and sad. Pray for them.


I had to borrow some of dh's luggage weight when we went to Miami. The shoes had to go in his suitcase Teehee .

you should be ok in the 2, i think. remember - i'm not a good judge of character for shorts bc i like them loose, so my view of "fit" for shorts is very skewed. iirc your waist is smaller than mine but you may have more hips/butt bc i am a little lacking in the butt area. since these are higher rise, i would think that you would be ok in a 2 to fit your waist. they might be sized similarly to express but i just feel like express jeans are less tight since they are so stretchy. Dontknow

azn raves about the sirens - you should try those if you're looking for black!
