Victoria’s Secret Semi-Annual Sale: May/June 2007

One of my favorite things to do when i’ve had a bad day is to go buy underwear! Even on a good day, it’s still one of my favorite activities. If you’re like me, then you’re in luck!

The Victoria’s Secret semi-annual sale started TODAY (online only). The sales always begin online a full month before they hit stores. The sale will begin in stores on Tuesday, June 19 (so plan ahead!). They have just about everything on sale including clothing, swimwear, bras, panties, lingerie and beauty products.

Victoria’s Secret sales have products on “sale” (like the bras below) and products on “clearance”. Clearance prices are even cheaper than the “sale” prices.

During the sale, bras are on sale starting at $12.99 and panties are available starting at $3.99. As far as collections go, almost the entire Glamour collection is on clearance. And, most of the Sexy Little Things collection is on clearance.

I noticed that they have every single bra on sale this time! Usually they have most of their newer bras excluded from the sales. This means that during this sale, quite a few of their bras are available at a sale price for the first time ever!

Some of the newer bras on sale for the first time include: the brand new Angels Wireless bra, the Angels Invisible Lace Secret Embrace bra, the new Body by Victoria Racerback bra, the Body by Victoria Full Coverage Secret Embrace bra, the Sexy Little Things Plunge bra (the one with adjustable cleavage), the Very Sexy push up bra, the Very Sexy Convertible push up bra (the one with the clear straps and gel padding), as well as the Very Sexy strapless, the Very Sexy Extreme Plunge Pushup bra and the Very Sexy Secret Embrace bra. All fo these bras are 25% off for the first time ever.

For even more savings, use the Victoria’s Secret coupon code SHOP or SP76601 for free shipping on all US orders of $100 or more.

Happy shopping! (And let us know what you find!)

Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Lipgloss

Victoria’s Secret new Beauty Rush Lipgloss has been quite a hit. I’ve heard lots of people talk about it how much they love it, but I hadn’t tried it for myself until a few weeks ago. I have to admit, I’m usually a total MAC Cosmetics Lipglass addict, but I decided to finally venture out and try a Beauty Rush Lipgloss. Guess what? I loved it –  so much that I went out and bought three more shades.

The lipglosses come in 24 different colors. Each shade has a different flavor that reflects its name. Every shade is super shiny – in my book, that’s a must-have when it comes to lipgloss. Most of the colors also have a subtle shimmer and/or delicate sparkle in the gloss.

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush LipglossOverall the texture is great. The glosses are surprisingly long-lasting, but not too sticky (so you don’t need to worry about your hair getting stuck to your lips if you wear your hair down!). The glosses are soft and go on easily. Each gloss comes in a tube with an angled tip, making it easy to apply straight from the tube.

Our editor’s pick for best shade and scent is Piece of Cake (tastes like cake batter… mmmm!). But you will just have to go try a few for yourself to decide which one is your favorite.

Here are all 24 shades:

I Want Candy
Sugar High
Melonrageous
Strawberry Fizz
Piece of Cake (previously “Slice of Heaven”)
Mango Madness
Grapefruit Blast
Passion Fruit Pop
Grapesicle
Juiced Berry
Cherry Bomb
Pinked Lemonade
Honey Do
Toasty Almond
Coconut Craze
Appletini
Cupquake
Lotta Colada
Cariberry
Mochaboom
Punchy
Smoothie Moves
My Cherry Amour
Spice Girl

Each tube of Beauty Rush lipgloss is $7 if purchased individually. You can also purchase 3 tubes for $15 from the Victoria’s Secret website, or 2 or more tubes for $5 each at any Victoria’s Secret store. If you are purchasing from the store, the Beauty Rush Lipglosses are usually on display near the main counter – perfect in case you happen to shop at Victoria’s Secret on a busy day and have to wait in line!

So, have you tried Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Lipgloss? Tell everyone whether you loved it or hated it, as well as which shades are your favorites.

There was a young angel with wings
Who could fly without wires or strings
She put on this bra,
Said, “I’m going out now”
No wires, no worries,
Just wings!
