Wow, those are some awesome deals! I'm jealous! I usually stop in during the sales just to see if I can find anything, but I usually can't find more than one or two pair I even want to spend $3 on. I don't think my VS has ever had any of the designer collections, though. Not that I've see, at least! _________________ Lingerie is the poetry in a woman's wardrobe.

| Yeah, I think it was just that one store in DC, because I haven't really found anything that great at my local store either. But I still check every year just to make sure! |

I too am a big fan of Victoria's Secret. I love the attention that I get when I try something on.
Fact I had also invested in some stock (LTD) awhile back but sense sold. VS is also La Senza in Canada, both are held by Limited Brands Inc.
But I do find just as great buys at Kohl's, Sears, JC Penny's too. I have to watch the finances _________________ Cathy

Since you live in Michigan, you should try Lover's Lane. Have you ever tried there before? I worked as a sales associate there for a few years, and helped many a customer not unlike yourself. If there is a store near you go check it out! Or if there isn't a store near you and you want to buy something off the internet site, let me know and I can help you with sizing and what not... I am still very familiar with the items.
Happy Lingerie Shopping, Cathy!

Thanks for the tip. I live in SW Michigan near Kalamazoo. The closes store looks to be Hobart IN. but still a distance. The other direction to Detroit is 150 miles but my son lives in Flint and when I get in his area, I'll have to check it out. I do have Fredrick's of Hollywood local. _________________ Cathy

| Spoyltone, what did VS tell you about what to do if a guy indicated he was buying for himself? or wanted to use the dressing room to try on the lingerie? |

I have always been treated as a customer and lead to the fitting rooms with never the blink of an eye. _________________ Cathy

They never mentioned it in any of the training videos, and I never heard of it happening while I was there! |

| I personally think VS is not so into lingerie and bras anymore as much as they have expanded into apparel. |

I stopped by a VS store on my way home from work tonite. They have the new items for this season. It seems to me they're trying to go back to lingerie. Many different pieces that have garters and lots of lace.
I just hope they push the 'pink' line into a corner of the store. |

Although I'm in the target age range for VS (28) i think its very cheesey and poorly made. I have flashbacks or when i used to buy the bras and the metal underwire would rear it's ugly head after a few wears.
My new favorite lingerie is the 3rd Date Collection by Nicole Miller. It's sold in some macy's and dillards stores and you can order it online. Its so sexy and sophisticated! Much more so than VS i think and not so typical. Same price range as well. |
