what went wrong? Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Um, am I the only person of the female persuasion that absolutely despises the :boo hiss:Victoria's Secret catalogue:boo hiss:. It's borderline pornography, and it definately wasn't made for us. How are you supposed to look through it when computer-generated bimbos stare at you, with sultry eyes not meant for you? Why do they have to send this crap to my house?!?!?! The thing is staring at me, and I can feel my self-esteem lowering every time I blink. (This post probably should have gone to the PMS section, but I figured it's a topic unto itself.) Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necromancer Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I LOVE Victoria's Secret!!! The first time I was ever in there was with CeeJ. She took me in on one of her panty binge shopping days. I had a ball. CeeJ is a real woman and she can shop there. I don't get the animosity here. I understand that everyone isn't Tyra Banks... but you don't have to be to shop there. It's just their marketing campaign is based around the model type. And on that note... VS's models aren't skinny... they are closer to the voluptuous type. The Kate Moss type is gone for good I hope. I guess for me it would be like saying that I won't buy a BowFlex cuz i'm not built like that guy in the commercial. Y'know? That would be kinda dumb eh?

netgirl Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Actually I love the Victoria Secret magazine too... I get it sent to my house. I love their lounge wear and when they have a sale........"Man....They Have a Good One"!! Once...I cut one of the models out of the magazine (body only)....and cut a picture of just my head..and stuck it on the model...and put it on my fridge!! "Man did I look good"!!! Made me think twice about opening the fridge..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolinda Bonz Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Victoria's Secret rocks! *wonders where the most recent catalog went* *eyes teenage son suspiciously* The Semi Annual sales are the best! Otherwise, they're kinda pricy. Excellent quality tho. I'll pay more for their bras and panties, because they last for years (just don't put them in the dryer.) But I won't pay that much for their other clothes. I review them for style and design, then go to Kmart and find something similar for $15. Nice finds in Clearance, too!

Maddy Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 None of my undergarments could even be remotely described as lingerie - it's all strictly underwear. I suppose if there was any chance of someone besides me seeing any of it, i'd have to fix that, but, oh well... My attempts at sexy all seem to end in unmitigated catastrophe, so I try to stay away from it now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wait and can't wait for the semi-annual sale too, Rolinda! I do the same thing at Kmart and other stores But, I have found at VS some great clearance stuff. It does last long, and is made well.

Alsgalpal Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Huh. Now that I think about it, they irritate me too!!! Dad gum idiots, photochopping girls in magazines to make them look 'perfect' and it does nothing but make other peoples expectations too high for themselves and others. Methinks I am pms'ing....

Kid_Gloves Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I wish I looked like a Victoria's Secret model... I get my underwear there, my boyfriend went with me once and he just seemed...confused. I don't get the sexy stuff, I get the 'pink' collection...the sexy stuff just isn't me.

The_Enemy_Within Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I don't go to Victora's Secret, but my mom does. The ladies on the advertisements look kinda, slutty.. I don't need Victora's Secret, I'm 13.. I won't need it when I'm older either... I'm happy with a Rush shirt and jeans: now THAT'S sexy. Oh, and what else is sexy is: GEDDY LEE PICTURES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 What's so bad about the VS catalogue? I use it as a "poor boy's Playboy." And if you really want to get offended at the slutty smutty look of a catalog, you ought to be picking on the Frederick's of Hollywood catalog, not VS. VS has some class; Fredericks is slutty.
