Just wanted to let any VS fans know that 4 stores will be coming to Canada this year!! 2 Pink stores and 2 regular VS stores. Not sure where they will be but my bet is Ontario and Alberta!

Anyway just wanted to post that as I am so excited!!!

Calm yourself. After many years of fetching stuff from Vickies in the US I wandered into one in Canada, in Newfoundland. It seems they adapt their stock for the local market and so, in Canada, they had lots of woolly pyjamas, mostly in plaid, fur lined slippers and hats. Hats confused me, I've heard of not looking at the mantlepiece but decorating it was news to me.

Heh! Something I've wondered for a long time is how come, if there are next to no VS stores in Canada, every Canadian woman one gets to know well enough to find out is wearing VS underwear? Plainly it's not a case of keeping it for special events because I know. Do Canadian women routinely spend their precious vacation days collecting American low rise bikini knickers?

I often wonder about women's knickers. Some of the things Souvette has appear to serve no function. They don't cover much and support nothing.

This almost sounds like a complaint.

I think they may be more for YOUR entertainment than for comfort or coverage

It entertains me enormously when I do the laundry. It's bloody hard to fold things when all the holes are the same size. Very confusing.

Don't get me started on tights.

I would need scaffolding in mine if they were meant to support

So, you're built for comfort, not speed

Size 12 isn't huge.
