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!

Was it worth it?
It's worth $5

The first three items were the best

Fekkai glossing cream 2 oz
Venus razor
Sally Hanson Nail Polish Strips
La Roche-Posey dual acne treatment .17 oz
Loreal Magic BB cream .025 oz

There was also a coupon for $3 off $15 beauty purchase at Target.

Hey Now Express... if you had enough coral Scarf Print material to make a batch of these skirts [express.com], then re-stock your dresses made out of the same fabric! Messed Up

Your post made me realize my post about my aunt's sewing machine must have sounded like a duh post. Blush They all have pedals. Her old machine required you pump a pedal with both feet. One pedal was the only power source.

I rarely get VS bags that are resealable or are clean enough to reuse. I thought maybe you all used acetone or something to clean them. Those of you who shop there more often increase your chances of getting some that work. Good reason to shop a lot, huh? Teehee

Your aunt would wear me out. I'm already dreading getting up early Saturday to Friday. I would love having guests, if only they would sleep later. laugh out loud My niece who is visiting likes to check everything out too. A couple people in my family are like that. I don't get it. Why would anyone care what people keep in their drawers & closets? Dontknow
I only remembered that when I was writing my post- that they all had pedals, electric or not. hehee

VS bags- You could try that. For some reason, a lot of mine arrive with adhesive + dirt on them and I bet the acetone would fix that. That's a good idea bulb


nod Oh yeah, I'm wiped! I was also up super-late "cleaning" and got a sunburn while she was here, but I practically slept all day after she left and am still tired. I agree about guests getting up early. Mine get up b/w 6 and 7am and wait for us for hours... but when we finally wake up, they're enjoying the peace and quiet outside and reading one of the mags I strategically leave out for them. Still feel bad about it though - I think - wake me up, I don't want to leave you hanging!

I totally understand her curiosity... it's something between possibly learning something new about the totally mundane (a new product, new way of storing things - like "how do they do it?") and getting to know you. I think it might make me feel closer to someone if I knew they used the same deodorant Stick Out Tongue I know that's weird...but know that I want to feel closer to some people in my life. Most I don't care. Such an incredibly small part, if at all would be, "what secrets are they hiding?". Pfft. I don't want to know what you feel you have to hide EEK! . With my SIL- I confess, I have peeked in drawers to see if she uses the MU I sent her or what she has for gifting ideas b/c I don't want to keep giving her UD when she hasn't even swiped shadows in the BOS I gave her 3 years ago, nor the sets of Stila smudgepots given to her by me and her BF's sister. The rest does not interest me. She could be offended by being asked. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

High Five I ran out of time at the end and had to put a bunch of boxes (full of random stuff) in my bedroom. My aunt asked if I felt we had a hoarding problem LMAO I didn't have the courage to tell her, "No, I have a shopping problem, but I'm glad you weren't able to determine that from what you saw, go me!

Got my huge Express order today, including my very first portofino! Most of the stuff is a little big though.

I also got this skirt in clearance: high waist pleated ponte knit skirt [express.com]- it's soooo girly! :3
...
'grats on the Portofino! What do you think? Oooh I loved that and another version of that skirt. Photo of you making it work please! Unfort. the print & cut were too overwhelming for my frame. Now I'm looking at the black and white Chevron one. Girly

Thanks again for the tip!

I totally feel bad for what you and your DH are going through. Seems just so terrible with those people hug It's one thing to be cheap, but to be cheap AND not willing to pay your share is the WORST.
...
Glad you had a good start! I like Nerdi's idea better since that would make it off the computer records radar for the company. I was going to suggest a privacy screen to put over the monitor and say it's for your eyes Sly .


No excuse for being that way too. I'm cheaper than them and I don't pretend that I don't know who gets screwed when I don't anti up. Oh well. A few more emails and maybe they'll do a service to DH and prove to him there really is no hope of re-habbing him. That's the best I can do for "optimism" at this point Dontknow

Lastly- when I didn't know what to pair with the crocheted fit and flare skirt in ivory [express.com], the manager at Express came up with this outfit. The stretch belt is in stone,b but I think the cognac brown ones work too, esp to pair with sandals or purse. I like it a lot, Keep! GirlyClick image for larger version Name: IMAG5096.jpg Views: 94 Size: 38.0 KB ID: 2063568 Still considering sizing up the skirt to get the extra inch or 2 of length that might make me reach for the skirt more...

Iagree Luckily- so many people post pics or videos , b/c I can't follow the threading diagrams! I took photos so I can remember how it goes. Also- this machine has an auto-threader! OMG

Thanks, I posted the link above- not too big of a difference if you really wanted it- or you could watch it on camel^3. Many years ago you were a child! You're still svelte ! Skinny + curves of a woman now nod

Smilie I bought it on 5/18, so probably posted a little before that on SD. laugh out loud about eBay. DH liked it until people started bringing stuff over for me to sell for them then he's Annoyed b/c now we're storing stuff here. Ooops ErmmETA - Harvey bags?! Where? I love my seatbelt bag!
I have 2 Harvey bags I think. I don't reach for them though, they're heavy and the straps are too wide for my comfort. Pretty sure they'll last a long time.

But then you can not walk!

Because you have to tie it tight to stay up.

i'm very upset with my first choice VS and VS Pink stores. Mad The only SAS bra signs i can see through the window--(before they open)--say, "Take an Additional 20% Off Already Reduced Bras." Seriously?! Are they ever going to be $15.99, or at least $19.99 at the bare minimum?
