aka - my epic online shopping fail!
So I am sure some of you have seen the Victoria Secret catalog picture of the girl with the awesome beach cover wrap, kind of looks like a towel with arm hooks? Well I have had that little beauty pinned to my pinterest board forever and when my sister told me it was on NoMoreRack.com I hopped on over to pick myself up one. Oh how impatient I was to get this amazing summer staple in the mail (granted it was January...) Well when it came I ripped that bag open like a kid on Christmas, whipped it out, put it on and then laughed so hard I am surprised I didn't pee myself.
It was the epitome of an epic fail. Words can not do it justice, so please follow my photo-montage of me attempting to recreate the V.S. ad...

Me rocking the look {i did not rock out the bikini for this little photo-op}
 |
| right off the bat the material was a tad bit stretchier than I expected |
 |
| I looked just as thrilled as the model, right?! |
 |
| Hot stuff's boobs aren't showing in the ad... this is where we go downhill! |
 |
| Throwing my hair back as I easily slide this little number over my shoulder... just making sure I am following directions |
 |
| Yep... something is very wrong! |
 |
| I will leave you with the final reason why this may end up tucked away in the dark depths of my closet forever It was a sad day... I may have to see if I can recreate my own with some less stretchy material (and perhaps a yard less of it!) Have you ever had a online shopping fail? |
oh my gosh I love this!! I wanted that so bad - but I was going to sew one myself. If it works I'll have to send you one :)
