Re: victoria's secret

  • No their bras don't fit me and my experience with their clothes is that it is cheaply made.

  • No I don't. I had a horrible experience there and will not go back. The older guy was with this young girl and he kept throwing money at the staff to buy her more things. Creepy!!

    Not at all. Nordstrom is totally where it's at. I've actually had the best experiences at the Bellevue Nordstrom, as they had a bigger selection of bras my size (30DD) in stock.

    But seriously, go to Nordstrom and get fitted. It's so so so worth it. 

  • I shop for bras there. I only wear one line; their biofit line as it's the only line that fits me and my 34As really well. ;-;

  • I sometime buys bras from VS, though I will check out Nordstroms next time.

  • Not anymore for bras, but I always get my underwear there because it's cheap and I always get coupons!  I get my bras and Nordstrom (or the rack) and it's pretty much the only place that consistently carries my size and has variety (32D).
  • Not for bras but I buy undies there. Love the coupons!

  • The only thing I ever buy at VS anymore is underwear. Their clothes don't fit me right and I'm way out of their bras.

  • yup. for lots of stuff! (didn't realize i was the only one).

    probably 12 out of my 15 bras or so in rotation are VS, and my undie drawer is probably 90% VS also. 

    i buy all the bras on clearance (i think only once i bought it just "on sale" with a coupon, and not on clearance). and all my undies are usually free, or the "lacie". i love the lacie. 

    i have a few shirts from there..but not much...i can't even think of what because it's been a long time, but i know i order stuff from their catalog...i LOVE their yoga pants (P!NK), and i have a few tanks from the pink line also.

    i also buy some makeup there, their mascara....i don't remember which one, is one of my faves. i always buy their eyeshadow and lipglosses when i have $10 off coupons.

    i *used* to buy lots of lotion there, so much that i haven't bought in years, but i still have a stock at home.

    Absolutely this. I don't trust VS's fitters at all; they keep trying to stick me in things like 36DDs when (pre-preg) I'm a 32G (UK). Nordy's not only measures better, they actually have a selection of bras that fit me AND are cute!

    I'll shop online, too, though -- figleaves and Bravissimo, especially.

  • Yes, I've found a style that I like from there. Like usual when I find something I like I tend to stick with it!

  • All mine are from there. I like them. They've always worked and held up, I'm a 36DD, so that makes me happy. I do recommend Nordy's as well. They are amazing at everything they do though.
  • I used to buy bras there, but they don't have the line i liked anymore.  I do like the cotton underwear from their pink line.  The bikini is perfect IMO.  Other than those underwear, though, i don't shop there anymore.

     Definitely to to Nordies! Make sure you ask for a fitting, because they don't even have all sizes out. They'll totally help you out. 

  • I only own one VS bra, and I hate it.
