Victoria's Secret SEMI ANNUAL SALE In Stores

Wahoo! It's finally here! Sale starts in stores tomorrow! Got some tips and tricks for those brave enough to jump right in....


Tip #1 Do not go to the sale in your undies. J/k, but DEFINITELY go to the semi-annual sale in comfortable clothing. Things can get a little cray-cray. Leave the heels at home. Ditch dangly bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and the like. You don't need anything on your body that's going to cause any discomfort. Speaking of discomfort...



Tip #2 If at all possible, leave your young ones out of this. I've seen kids get dragged along to the SAS, and it's not fun for anyone. Your little one might have to resort to extreme behaviors in order to make the shopping trip fun for herself. 


Tip #3 Grab-First-Think-Later! Use the black shopping tote that a Sales Associate will offer you. If you see anything you're not sure about, just take it. That way you can take your time making your decisions after you have everything you like as an option in front of you. With that said...


Tip #4 Get your mind right. This is not a war. VS is not a battle ground. Some ladies freak out when they see so many people and so much cute lingerie on sale, & they go into Street Fighter mode. No. Just say no. Breathe. It's only bras, body sprays, and panties. There is no need to make yourself look uncouth or do anything you wouldn't normally do in a normal store on a normal day. Trust me, there is more than enough merchandise for everyone!



Tip #5 Leave your phone in your purse. Talking on the phone will distract you. Plus, is there anything more annoying than listening to someone's whole convo 6 inches from your ear? Ugh. Space is limited. We're all here to SHOP, so let's focus, ladies!

Tip #6 Hydrate & bring protein. With the amount of items to look at/try on plus the long lines, you very well may be in the store for an hour or more. Bring a small bottle of water to stay hydrated, and a compact protein like nuts or a fitness bar. Not to have a meal in the store but just to keep your energy up.


As for me, Miss VSpink-love will be tucked safely away at home chillin. You could never catch me at the craziness that is the in-store SAS :)  But I see how it's fun for a lot of people.
Ciao, bellas!

Product Review: PINK Boyfriend Sweat Pants

Review of Victoria's Secret PINK Boyfriend Pants / Sweats
Mmmm purple. Yummy.
 Hello Dolls! While on vacay, I tried out boyfriend sweats for the first time!
I know, I know... so late on the boyfriends train. What can I say? I was obsessed with the MVP yoga line!
I am NOT the only VSPink lover out there who has actually not tried them. So if you already know about the wonders of boyfriends--just hop yourself over here & see how crazy my clearance sale prices are. Less than $30 with FREE SHIPPING. Yes, I said it. Free.
New to boyfriends?
--> Most Comfortable style of casual pants on the market. Women's pants are designed to hug us in curvy places because that's cute & all. But you have got to experience pants that actually don't constrict you... anywhere! If you buy the size of pants that you normally wear, they won't be SO baggy that they look weird. The looseness lets air circulate, which is healthy for your skin. And there is nothing masculine about adorable VSPink designs. You're not sacrificing any femininity when you relax in these. If you wear actual men's pants... you're sacrificing :) 
Heavenly soft fabric with a nice weight to it, which prevents bunching up or weird wrinkling.
I KNOW what you're thinking now... why the giant butt area?! LOL it will not be a problem if you choose your regular size; the fabric will drape properly. No diaper effect :)
That boxer-style back was holding me back, but I'm so glad I gave them a shot. Now I can't take them off. You won't either. Especially if you live with someone who wants the house to feel like Alaska 24/7!
If you love wearing fitted clothes like I do, you should definitely take a leap of faith. At the prices that I'm selling them for, you can't go wrong. For some of them, I have matching hoodies, too :) If you're looking for something you don't see, send me a message.
