Victoria on a cruise

By Marcia Pounds April 30, 2008 11:30 AM

I stopped shopping at Victoria’s Secret when I walked into the store and found everything designed for teen-agers. What grown woman wants to wear something stamped with “Love Victoria”?

But, occasionally, in their online store, you can find real bargains. Check out http://www.victoriassecret.com

Recently, I spotted a swimsuit -- $15 top and $15 bottom -- as well as summer tops and dresses for $15-$30. Great filler for your Florida summer wardrobe or if you’re heading out on a cruise this spring or summer. This top is only $9.99.
Click on the 70 percent clearance sale to find really cheap items, though of limited size selection.

I’ll never look at good as the Victoria Secret models in these outfits, but when it’s 98 degrees in South Florida, who cares? -- Marcia Heroux Pounds
