Same here! Exact same size! They make the vs bombshell in bigger sizes. Try one on for the hell of it. Lol. My boobs were pretty much up to my chin. I laughed hysterically.

Oh my gosh.  I should try one on just for fun.  I always look at them and go "these are freaking ridiculous.. twooooo cup sizes?!  who wants that?!" but I feel like on my little frame it might be comical enough to try hahaha!

Haha. That's exactly why I did it! I'm pretty tiny too with 34DD. I almost died. I had a hard time getting it off since I was laughing so hard!!! I highly recommend it. Good times had by all. Plus I got some weird looks from the store workers when they saw me taking it into the dressing room. Lol. Priceless.

I feel sad whenever I see someone with quad-boob. The bra cup is too small they overflow giving the look of having 4 boobs. So sad /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I just wanna be like -- here take my bra!! Let me help you!

Ha!!!  I thought I was the only person that used uniboob!!  There are some camisoles and shirts that I just can't wear because they give me uniboob.  My boyfriend cracked up the first time he heard me say it and then i gave him a demo and he totally understood.

Boxe webpages are semi-loaded up to box #33 so far! Looks like lots of variety, so far. I also noticed that BB is sampling Smashbox (one of my HG mascaras!) this month. I don't think I've ever noticed Smashbox being sampled in the 13ish months that I've been subscribed, but I was not always super observant. Is this a new brand for BB? Edit: whoops, didn't see the post above mine!

I am pretty sure that the link was specific to your account, which is why there is a string of info after the regular link
 
Although I have yet to see the confirmation email from Birchbox that the earrings are mine, the CS rep did get back to me early this morning to confirm that I was able to reserve the earrings.  Since then, I've kept an eye out for the "official" email....

 The Bombshell, right?  Oh my gosh, I bought one as a joke....I wanted to play a joke on my bf who was getting back from spending the summer in Greece, you know, just to see if he noticed.  He did notice and was, honestly, a little scared by the enhancement.  I couldn't keep a straight face while I was wearing it- I couldn't see my feet!

Yeah, like I said, because they responded so quickly to my email, I think there had to have been an issue- maybe the system got overloaded with so many people responding to the offer.  They didn't get back to me this quickly when my Malin + Goetz candle in the Snow Day box arrived shattered (wasn't upset- the hemp one didn't do it for me)

I got the body cream last month, and while I liked it, it came in a weird cardboard pouch that was mostly air /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I knew that this wasn't a mistake because the volume listed was pretty small.  However, it was plenty of cream to get several uses for my hands.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses the term "quad-boob".  There was a year where every salesperson was trying to get me to go down a band size and every time I came out with four boobs, lol.  I need to look up this bombshell bra you guys are talking about, it sounds like it would be worth a field trip just for the amusement.

Is New Jersey affected by the weather? I ask because I ordered a full size item on Birchbox and shipping hasn't been updated since 1/24 (which says "shipping info received" in NJ.

Omg, I never knew of this term before, but it is totally my MIL and I cringe a little every time I see it. I mean I know you are cheap (my husband's words), but seriously a properly fitting bra is a must, doesn't even have to be a fancy one, just one that is big enough!

 

[wadedl]

I went to buy a bra at Victoria's Secret recently and came out empty handed /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Sadly I could not find a bra that did not give me at least a little quad boobage! I could just see what it would turn into at certain times of the month. One of the few bras that currently fits is 38F and its by Panache! I was having a bad bra day and needed something that day and ended up buying 2 42 DD bras at nordtrom rack since nothing else fit in the cup. They ended up being 1 cent each.

Maybe it's the route it had to take from NJ to get to you? I live in FL, so I don't have many delays due to the weather. I'm at the NorthEasternMost part of the state, but It did snow in the Panhandle this week! and they claim it could here today..it's 35. I highly doubt it. So far it's just been cold, windy and misty.

It must be my order that was suppose to come on Monday came today. So don't give up hope. I was going to email if it didn't update today, but it updated last night and came today.
