I'm an Angel - A Victoria's Secret Angel!!

Ok, so the other day I walked into Victoria's Secret and got bum rushed by employees. Lovely ones mind you, but I still felt attacked (in a friendly kindda way, I guess). Then that feeling slowly turned into me blushing and feeling like a celebrity...hmmm this could be nice.

Shelly was her name, the one who won my attention. She was very friendly and truly made me feel like I was on the Red Carpet. Shelly told me all about the special sales, what's hot, what's new. That's when she mentioned the new "Angels". "Hmmm, Angels?, I say. Tell me more".

It's soft, smooth and moves with you. Comfortable, stylish and sexy. I'm thinking that's sounds good, but I'm nursing so is this a nursing gals bra? Yes, Bra! Shelly was describing the new Angels Bra Collection as if it were made of pure silk. She said it's definitely not a nursing gals bra but it's a bra for when you don't want to feel like "Mommy". It's for when you want to feel "all woman", if you know what I mean. I said, "No she didn't, this girl is working me". Apparently she did a good job so I said, "Bring it on Shelly, let me see what you got, but before we do that I need a bra fitting specialist, is there one available"? Miss lady pulled out her measuring tape and said, "Here I am, are you ready?" HA! "Right here? In the middle of the store?" Yes!

After sizing me up, which she did rather quickly and smoothly like she could do this with her eyes closed, she said, "I can set you up in a dressing room, bring you the bra drawers and let you try on the different styles until you find your fit". I thought she was going to offer me a glass of wine with that order too, would have been nice.

As soon as she opens the dressing room door, BAM!, right in my face was a sign that said STRIP in bright pink lights...lol!! And so I did. I tried on two bra's and they were ok but the next one I tried on was the ONE. It's soft like she said, comfortable, and sexy!! Black with a pink bow in the middle. A very small and cute bow, sort of like this one.

Shelly knocked on the door to see if I was ok, I said yes but would you take a look and tell me what you think? I opened the door and the look on her face made me feel like I was a star! I wonder if they are trained to give that look? Of course she said it looked great, would you like to try another? I said no, this ONE will do. Mind you, I just walked in to browse, not to purchase a $46 bra.

Standing at the cash register I got to thinking, what would it be like if I worked at Victoria's Secret? Toying around with the idea out loud, I engaged the manager in conversation about working part time. Do you know that after the conversation I was basically offered the job if I wanted it? "You're kidding me, right?" No, she said as she handed me an application. Hahaha, me work?, outside of my home...what would that be like? I haven't worked in nine years. That's a long time! But I tell you what, lately I've been having that itch. The stay at home moms itch, wanting to work outside of the home for a change.

To work or not to work, that is the question?

After a visit like that to Victoria's I would love to be able to go, shop and buy as I please. When I came home I modeled my new Angels Bra for D. The only thing is that I didn't have a pair of wings ;)
