Advantages: nice stuff

Disadvantages: No UK website

Victoria's Secret underwear is great. I am not into the 'Pink' range as it is more for teens, but love their other ranges like Very Sexy, Body by Victoria and Sexy Little Things.

Most people probably think Victoria's Secret is dead sexy stuff - especially with the above range names, but the fact is, yes, some of it is pretty sexy (not in a tacky way), but most of it is just really nice girly underwear. You should be able to find a bra shape and style you like as there are loads to choose from, with different coverage and lift as required. The patterns and colours are gorgeous and co-ordinate with the panties. Sizes of bras are from AA to DDD, and panties usually xs to xl depending on the style.

They always have some sort of offer on, and have big sales at the end of the season. The website does clothing, accessories, shoes, beauty and swimwear too, with good photos and descriptions. Size chart and conversions can be found under their customer service section.

Negatives:
They have stores throughout the US, but a HUGE downside is that you cannot get Victoria's Secret in the UK. I think maybe a couple of London Airports have some of the range, but that's it. So you are left with no option but to buy from their website.

This is frustrating and will really hurt your purse, because shipping is high to the UK - e.g. $27.99 for order value of up to $75, $33.99 for value up to $125, and $56.99 for value $250 - $350. Not so bad you say? Well it's not over.

UK customs and excise will whack on a HUGE amount to the cost of your order, and you can't have it delivered without paying up first. What seemed like a good price for your purchase becomes sickening once you add on Customs and Excise.

Also, even though you can sometines get offers like 3 for 2 and discount codes on their front page, not all offers are relevant to the UK - they often have free shipping with a bra purchase - but only within the USA. Got your size wrong or it doesn't suit? Send it back and you are just putting in more money and you won't get your initial postage or custom charges refunded.

Biggest negative? You will never look as good in the undies as the Victoria Secret models.

Tip - do not go shopping on the website with your boyfriend/husband in the house. Will only lead to a war.

To summarize. A great site, disgustingly gorgeous models, easy to use and some good offers. With no UK website, don't purchase unless you are sure it will fit/suit you, and even then, a good deal soon becomes unaffordable once you add on shipping and customs. What a shame.

Summary: frustrating
