Yeah, I agree there. I've been getting a lot better at that in the last year or so.

Yeah, it's hard for me to get rid of some clothes because of what I paid for it, but now, I'm having the problem of paying soo low OOP that..maybe I should just keep it to wear around the house or something. My issue is that I also like to have multiples of the same color, especially when it's super cheap

I have having to return/rebuy, but if I'm getting that same item 50% off, I'm going to go through the hassle.

Oh, you will get multiples of the same exact item in the same color? I will get that urge now & then and I have bought exact copy multiples before

I feel like a total psycho, but it's this reasoning - I love this item & want a back-up when the first one dies. But I never wear my clothes to death, so it makes no sense. I haven't done it in a while, which I'm proud of. Right now I'm obsessed with a particular tank top & I am getting several different colors, but I feel like I even need to stop with the different colors b/c I'm sure I have enough

They keep making new colors waaaahhhhh

i do this too - it's not just you! i haven't had to use the duplicates yet that i know of... but there have been some items without duplicates that i've worn through! it's too difficult to predict...

No way! Well at least you have some items that are getting worn through - that's good

I am pretty much living my whole life in 1 particular pair of sweats... they will get worn until they disintegrate. But I think the reason I'm constantly in them is that I actually have an exact duplicate

[don't ask me if I know where exactly the duplicate is]

sale accessories are saying additional 50% off in cart, while other sale are still at 30%. weird. (but it's still taking 30% off - i wonder if they're already prepping for tonight?)

i received my exp rewards orders today!

i'm happy with the stuff i had to guess on

the short sleeve portofino is not very special i think, but it's ok, nice to have a looser short sleeve shirt option.

i'm starting to decide my favorite clothing to pack... seems i like lace

also, i may be packing too many dresses, i might not need much.

also i told dh we should pack sneakers so at least we can walk to and from the restaurants in exchange for the pigging out

i got a 15% off drugstore anniversary link - does that work for others or is it account-specific?

yay!!! glad you like what you guessed on. the portofinos will be great in the hot weather.

i love lace right now too! dresses are good in hot weather too... they allow your legs to breathe. haha. if you need help deciding you know where to go...

oh! that could be it too - they just didn't change it back.

here [drugstore.com]'s the link then! if anyone needs it.

oh wait - sooooooo weird. the 1 bra that they missed in my huge box of returns - i just got a separate return confirmation for it. i didn't even have to call/email them!

one less thing i need to call them about...

bra review:
my favorite bra at the moment:
dream angels perfect coverage [victoriassecret.com]

i was very sad that they only offer it in store in 32D/34C and up. i'm 1 size short.

i'll never be able to use up my rewards + 10 off coupons on that. boo!

it has more padding than the old dream angels demi (and probably more than the new one, but i don't like the new one as much anyway) and more support but it's more invisible under clothing. the old DA demi that i love is great for light support but the top lace trim tends to show under some clothing. fits me very well. will be waiting on the pbos for DA to stock up on more nude + black!

prob not. imo the arm hole looks super wide and when it's that long it looks funny with your skinny arm peeking out. just my opinion tho.

how did the sleeveless portofino look on you? i'm not all that excited about the style in general bc it reminds me of middle school/hs for me (i used to love sleeveless button downs).

I like the sleeveless. Good point about the short sleeved shirts.

i like the original bettter. i like the sleeveless too, maybe because they're not plain, i got the studded and the lace back. the short sleeve didn't have details. maybe wait for when they come up with more styles.
