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!

1) roll down the window "pfft, is the air coming from the vents not fresh?"
2) take dramamine (I had a less-drowsy formula) "I don't want to be drowsy" - so you'll sleep in the car or be sick, your choice, but if you're not going to do it then Shutup
3) drink ginger ale "I don't need that sugar"
4) sit in the front seat "that won't help"
5) turn the air on cooler "then I will get cold" - he set the backseat air at 78 deg.
Instead he asked us to drive slower...
I am still Roll about this.

Yeah, I have the trousers in white, seafoam and tan - I'm sizing up on the tan only. Sailors - my linen ones get so stretched out by the end of the day... regular colors don't seem as bad. I picked up the black in Size 2, the legs/waist fit perfectly but it kinda hits the kibble&bits. Don't know what to do with those sailors... Crazy

Yes, ma'am... they're in Utah, not Nevada Stick Out Tongue

Comically awful sounds spot on accurate laugh out loud I sure hope so. DH was most mad at his friend, especially for things like - complaining about being car sick but refusing to

i just got my 2nd shipment of shorts. i can confirm that the black sailor 2 in store was stretched out (or else i have gained some bulk in my lower midsection - not inconceivable considering i've been binging on unhealthy foods the past few days Shutup) and all the cotton sailors in 2 fit the same now. my linen ones somehow fit bigger - but these were also shipped without a tag Annoyed so maybe they were a return.

apparently i DID order the blue "deep teal" sailors, so no need to exchange! laugh out loud hmm i ordered a trouser short in tan in 4 but it's big. i think i threw in 0's and 4's just to see since the sizing was so odd.

black sailor in 0 fit me perfectly everywhere except, as you call it, it hit the "kibbles n bits". the 2 fits well without getting all up in mah business - this is why i tend to size up on shorts. since they sit on the lower stomach area anyway as long as they catch on the hips it's fine for me.

i can't believe how horrible those ppl are. as someone who always gets carsick, i usually just go to sleep to avoid the vomit. it does the trick quite nicely - why did he not want to sleep?? Confused and whatevs - sitting in the front ALWAYS helps.

I had tons too. I wasn't thinking.

I actually forgot something worse.... I actually left the diaper bag... with 2 sippy cups full of milk. Will rot there for two months. Only other thing important there is the small camera I wanted to take for quick pictures, though we brought the big camera. DH and my sister don't get how I would forget that laugh out loud
I do! You have 2 kids. Totally understandable laugh out loud. Kids steal your brain!

Quote from IceyNiki :
Wow! I have never experienced that. I just got home to my three VS early access packages sitting on my doorstep. I had not even been tracking them. I guess that means my other SAS packages will be here Monday.
It was 2 bras and 5 panties. The other order with 2 bras and 5 panties shipped ups. Boo VS. Now I won't get all my stuff at the same time Annoyed.

Wave Heyall - I'm back but busy- the Breast Cancer Fundraiser is tomorrow. I've been having a good chuckle at all the sizing inconsistencies on the Sailor Shorts from Express. Exactly what my experience was so I'm glad I'm not going crazy!

Redwood National Park is beaaaauuuutiful! I would put it up there with the parks in Nevada (Arches, Bryce Canyon, Zion) that I love so much. The car mates were lucky there wasn't enough room in the trunk for them . Here's the biggest surprise of them all- while wifezilla was as rude as heck and just wanted to play drinking games and not explore (Yeah, that's why we flew in & drove 7 hours Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) ), husbandzilla (my DH's friend) was the worst! This is our third time camping with him and he has totally changed. Frown I feel bad for my DH, it's definitely not the guy he knew. Neither of them lifted a finger to set up camp, were whiny and totally selfish (hiding things in their tent that they didn't want us to use - paper towel, scissors, knife, hand soap - ugh!). Luckily, he was there to stand next to me while I was loading up the car and direct me. Mad It was pouring rain and he said I should take my poncho off (my rain jacket had soaked thru) to cover something wet in the trunk so his pack wouldn't get wet. Sure dude, better your pack stay dry than me..... The two of them were "princesses" and you know how useful those are when you're camping... I'll spare you all the details, but there are some prize nuggets I'll share when I get a chance laugh out loud
I'm a princess too but at least I have enough sense not to go camping Teehee. I'd be miserable.

Quote from kurips :
i'm jealous. my sister has an express package here. she ordered later on in the sale without coupon.

I've seen you girls mention the Express box sale a few times. They must have had that, before you all got me obsessed. What is it?
it's just the clearance sale.

holy crap why does this cost so much?!

No clue but I want it just because it has to be awesome Teehee. Not paying that though. There is also a flat iron in that collection.

Either have it in your bag or search set and add it like that. I had to get creative as well.

That's when they mark everything down for clearance. Like SAS, it happens twice a year. The last express one was in the middle if November I think.
Thanks. I remember the Nov. sale, but didn't realize it was called a box sale.
