Victoria’s Secret Pink Sucks. There, I Said It.
February 11, 2009 Posted in Style
I am 100% a lingerie girl.
That being said, although I love, love, LOVE Victoria’s Secret, there is one section of their stores that makes me want to barf:
Victoria’s Secret Pink.
The sub-division of VS is supposedly geared towards high schoolers and undergrads, but is usually found on awkward middle school girls, typically in the form of bejewled hoodies and capri-length sweat pants with PINK written across the butt.
Something about the brand is just inherently annoying and cheesy to me. The bright colors, unsophisticated graphics, and heavy labeling might have something to do with it. Don’t get me wrong, some of their undies and tops (sans logo) are pretty cute, but I have NO desire to wear a “most popular” t-shirt bra emblazoned with the VS PINK crest in rainbow colors. I’ve been wearing a bra for close to 10 years now – the novelty has worn off. Additionally, I doubt my boyfriend would be impressed (or tuned on!) if I busted out a yellow polka dotted scoopneck come Friday night.
With the juvenile designs one might expect some juvenile pricing to fit junior-high budgets, but Pink doesn’t even offer that. Instead, their bras hover around the $35-$40 range, and their apparel is even more pricy. $90 for a rhinestone encrusted zip up ? Really? Online, Pink even offers logo-covered bedding that oh-so-conveniently fits twin extra-long dorm beds should you wish to showcase your love of the line in your room at college. I’m not kidding. And don’t even get me started on their “Collegiate Collection.”
Did I mention that Pink not only sells underwear, flip flops, tote bags, lounge wear, and bedding, but also skirts and jeans now? Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t ever see myself trading in my Sevens, or even my A&Fs, for a pair of Pink skinnies. It’s just not gonna happen.
What do you think? VS Pink: Hate it or love it?

And apparently you can only have small(er) boobs if you wear Pink.
Actually, that's true of VS in general. Grr

I hate the cheesy sayings on their clothes! Their pjs are cute but I don't want the saying on it!
Amy says:
Wed, 11th Feb 20097:47 am
What can I say, I love it. I love the girly designs and the fun prints. I do think it's expensive, but if this would've been my rant, I would have directed it at Juicy Couture. I HATE that stuff.
The bedding and real clothes is kind of dumb, though. I just love their sweats.

I agree! They do occasionally make something cute, but then they plaster it with hideous logos and graphics. And yes, even if I did want to wear a sparkly striped Pink bra, I'd have to have multiple breast reductions.

some of the sayings are really juvenile and cheesy and i wouldn't dare, but i love their hoodies and sweatpants and such. i love the brand.

I was just thinking this in class today. The girl in front of my was decked head to toe in a bright pink sweatsuit, all with PINK plastered everywhere. I just wanted to tell her that she could've bought 3 actually cute outfits for what she paid for that sweatsuit.

although the stuff is soo comfy and soft, all that "university of pink" stuff is so freakin cheesy
Maggie says:
Wed, 11th Feb 200910:38 am
I see your point, but I still think it's cute. It's kind of like a cheaper version of Juicy Couture. I don't really buy their clothes, but their underwear is cute (and a lot more affordable than VS underwear).

I agree with you 100% but what can I say… Im a sucker for the 5 for 25$ underwear… and some are really cute.

I used to like their underwear in highschool… but thats back when they would have cute patterns and designs… now everything just has PINK emblazoned on it or its college themed (am i'm not in school)
and plus i don't think their bra come in anything bigger then a c cup which is annoying…
molly says:

Comfy, but U.G.L.Y……it would be cute if it wasnt all bedazzled!! Also, overpriced, you are so right!!
Steph says:
Wed, 11th Feb 200911:44 am
im so glad im not the only who hates their stuff, i just dont understand it. i went into vs recently and saw the college stuff and was interested in this cute tee to turn it around and find PINK in big letters in the back i was so disappointed.

As I sit here in my bright pink University of Alabama PINK sweats, having just ordered the gray U of A cut off sweats and gray hoodie and flip flops online, I must admit that I really like some of their stuff. The pullover hoodies and sweatpants are by far the softest, coziest, most comfortable I've ever worn, and their boy shorts are undeniably cute- they're pretty much all I wear. However, the collegiate swimwear is HIDEOUS, and the "bling" tees and sweats are revolting to me. Actually…anything that looks like it's been bedazzled is revolting to me…
Before you hate on me for loving over-priced sweats, let me at least say one thing- I have the decency to never wear sweats (especially with PINK or anything else plastered all over my ass in public)- they're strictly for lounging around my house after work and going to my MMA class at the gym in. The 2 hoodies I have do not have PINK written on them anywhere, they're just cute University of Alabama hoodies that are unlike any that I could pick up in a collegiate store or on a website and look cute with jeans for casual weekends or quick trips out.
As for the cost- I do agree, 58 dollars for a hoodie and 38 for sweatpants is definitely steep, but is it any more than you would spend for a pair of Juicy sweats? Hollister? A&F? or even any licensed collegiate hoodie–probably not- not to mention Victoria's Secret online ALWAYS lets you stack coupons so you can almost always get free shipping, a percentage off, and something free, whether it be a tote bag, or undies or whatever else. I usually get a VS gift card for my b-day or Christmas for someone so that takes the cost down as well.
Oh…and I'm definitely not getting any bras from that line…I couldn't cram my DDs in there if I tried, haha.
Enough of my babbling I suppose- to sum it up…I love the sweats and undies- the rest can suck it

but the 5 for 25 underwear is nice. and not too expensive.
and i have D's so Pink is out of the Q for me.

Wed, 11th Feb 20093:11 pm
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! i hate that PINK shit!!!! half the chicks on my campus wear that PINK shit and uggs allll the time, its disgusting. the pants and the hoodies are ugly as hell, and everyone has them, try to be individual for once and don't buy what everyone else is wearing around you.
giz says:
Wed, 11th Feb 20093:39 pm
All I buy is the underwear, and only on three occasions. If it's got the goddamn logo on it, I won't get it.
Sadly it seems to be on almost everything.

oh man, I can't believe you guys! I LOOOVE pink! Esp. their really cute undies. I collect the dogs….I just can't help myself. I'm addicted. I agree that sometimes the sayings are a bit below my maturity level, but I think that you just need to pick and choose the cute stuff.
I hope MSU gets picked for the college collection soon!!
Meg says:
Wed, 11th Feb 20095:59 pm
The Pink stuff is so cheaply made! I used to work there and we had people complaining all the time about it falling apart or tearing easily. That's why the undies are so cheap compared to the rest of the stuff at Vickie's.

Claire says:
Thu, 12th Feb 200910:01 am
OK, a blogger that in the same breath bemoans how cheesy, tacky, and juvenile a clothing brand is, and then goes on to defend her beloved Abercrombie (what was that about awkward middle school girls again?) needs to back away from the computer.
Kayla says:
Thu, 12th Feb 200910:52 am
For the girls who mentioned that their bras were too small for them… Pink DOES make bras in size D, and they fit!
What I really like about their bras is the way the straps hook together to change from regular to racerback.
Liza - University of says:
Thu, 12th Feb 20093:24 pm
Gotta agree with you girls on the 5 for $25! And I never said I couldn't afford it, I just don't think it's worth their prices.
Also Claire, I definitely don't LOVE Abercrombie, but I'd rather pay for some of their jeans than for Pink's! Calm down girl!
Britt says:
Thu, 12th Feb 20094:10 pm
I was starting to think I was the only one who hated PINK. I work at a mall right next to VS, and the majority of girls I see go straight to the PINK line are little girls who look like they are in middle school. =/
Bridgette says:
Thu, 12th Feb 20096:37 pm
Honestly, I just get panties from pink. They are cute and practical and that is about it. My totes are the same, I have 3 pink totes and I use them for practicality. I will agree it's kind of lame they slap their name over everything, it just takes away from the quality.
Misty says:
Thu, 12th Feb 200910:57 pm
I love Pink's undies.. but yeah, the way they overuse the logo is just too much..
Same reason I don't like Bebe and their bedazzled logo. Ugh.

Sure some items boast an annoyingly large logo and over-bedazzled loungewear, but I love their underwear.
Being a 32AA, VS is very unfriendly to my bust size. Those few bras that DO come in my size are only available online most of the time- and while their bras and panties are available in bright colors and patterns that may be seen as "juvenile", most are also available in black, nude and white. I personally think that bright, sunny underwear is fun.
Amy says:
Mon, 20th Apr 20092:23 pm
I have to dissagree! I LOVE VS!!!!!!!! I love the pink section!! Almost all my clothes are from there and I have ALOT of clothes. Yeah it is over priced but it is almost the same price as my hollister clothes and aeropostale stuff. So yeah. There clothes are soooooooooo comfy. BUT I only get the bras undies bags and shirts that only say…… LOVE PINK or like just pink and the rest is the cotten! Yeah I don't get where the whole thing says PINK.

I personally LOVE Pink to death. not anything with rinestones or "bling" though. I just bought another hoodie from there yesterday and it says pink in very small lettering on the back, it says EVERY THING"S GONE GREEN. and i'm vegetarian so of course I loved it. My best friends mom called it the "barbie store". but I'm 15 and only 5 foot 1 in. so people can probably mistake me for a middle schooler but whatever. I don't really buy my underwear there though. I go to Aerie, but yeah it is pricey but it's great quality and very comfy and cute. I buy like all my stuff there so I'm pretty offended but whatever floats your boat.

I love PINK the people who say they hate it are the ones who can not afford it or either have jealousy towards someone else who happens to wear PINK. I shop there all the time and the prices are the same as Abercrombie and Hollister ( which I like as well) but just because you rather not shop there might not mean you hate it, you probably just rather shop at another store. Just because you don't shop there doesn't mean you have to hate it.
PINK is making tons of money so you can just SUCK IT HATERS!!!!!!

I was iffy at first, but I LOVE Pink jeans. They fit so well and made from high quality denim. Plus they come in short sizes and the stores actually have them, so I don't have to guess online if the shorter length would fit.
Casey says:
Tue, 23rd Jun 200910:09 am
Well I do like VS pink, but i hate how the bras are only for small chested girls (i have a large chest(36DD) and i can only go for the regular victorias secret bras-which is a shame cuz the pink bras are really cute and they should make them in bigger sizes). I get the panties and shirts, but i do agree that in pinks earlier days, it was more cuter.
Steph says:
Tue, 14th Jul 20097:02 pm
Sorry to resurrect this article,just wanted to say that I have never been a follower when it comes to trends (I don’t even shop at A&F, Hollister, etc bcuz I hate having a logo-infected shirt) but ever since my cousin gave me her pair of flare sweatpants from the Pink line I have loved the softness and weight of their fabric. Although I was reluctant to wear hot pink pants with a glittering red heart on one leg and the PINK logo’s letters embroidered on the butt, I’ve yet to find other pants that are more suitable for lounging, working out, and attending class when I find myself pressed for time.
My only issue with them is that the pants are always longer than my legs and I have to cut them at the ankles (I am 5’3” and a college student, so maybe I do look like a middle school kid).I figure that Nike athletic pants cost much more than ur standard bf fit pants and the Dri Fit isn’t missed, since I wear the boyfriend fit and it doesn’t stick to my skin (read=no visible dampness! :S).
I’m not the kind of girl that buys Pink junk just to get a plush dog or w/e with purchase but since getting my cuz’s old pants, I have bought 2 undies (one was free w/purchase, other in the semi-annual sale) and 2 pants. Those who complain about the price can go on eBay and find all Pink merch at great prices (just make sure they are NEW with TAGS INCLUDED). That said, I do look for designs and materials that I like. I would hate to have clothes covered in a heart and kiss print, that’s way to cutesie for me, but earth prints, peace signs and recycling logo based prints are reflections of my values.
Yes, I think the U of Pink designs are corny and I stay away from them (esp seeing how some ppl I know that aren’t in school wear them) and a bedding collection is way excessive, but I can and often do live in these sweats and I think bright pink and yellow rhinestone encrusted undies have the same effect as lacy, ribbon embellished undies (with cotton as soft as VS’s “sophisticated” line)on a gal’s outfit and outlook (though leg length bling is extravagant in every sense). It put’s a pep in my step!
Wearing a couple of ultra-versatile pants with the word PINK on my a$$ doesn’t make me the property of VS Pink. I am ultimately an advocate of the pants themselves and not necessarily the brand. I’m a vegetarian who loves black metal and PINK sweatpants…deal with it.

I don't like the pants with big logo. But I really like pink bra I have more than 10 pink bras and non of them I paid over 20.Either with the coupon or went there during the big sale season. Gonna be there on the first day of the on-sale day. They will run out very soon. I also bought one hoodie and one sweater under 20 for each too. They are very very comfortable. I don't remember if they have big Pink logo or not. But definitely not collage collections.I do not bought their undies very often just because of the high price even though they are too cute and I love them. I remember I spent 25 and got 7 or 8 one time. But only once or two.For me, as long as they have big sales,I will go to take a look and find some good deals.

I like PINK a lot! Not because of the brand name, but because the sweatpants and sweatshirts and SO comfy. I love lounging around in them or if I want to wear lazy comfy clothes I can just quickly put them on for the day. Also I am a happy peppy kind of girl so I love all of the bright colors. Most of the girls in my high school love it.
Putting PINK on everything and the sparkles and stuff is too much for me but I just don't but that stuff.
Abercrombie and Hollister are MUCH worse. My 8 year old sister wears that stuff (whatever she can fit into that is xs or xxs)

I love the Pink line it's adorable! and I am way out of college age all ages wear it! it's stylish,cute and comfy you think people should wear boring ugly wal-mart sweats instead? if you don't like it that's your opinion but maybe you are just to fat to have anything across your butt? Ambercrombie (reminds me of gay guys) and Hollister is what sucks! what's with the stuipid moose? I second Alli Suck it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dagna says:
Wed, 18th Nov 20092:27 pm
I have to pleasantly disagree, I adore pink even if I'm 20. but the extent of my purchases are panties, bras, sweats and tote bags. I'm not a big fan of the bedazzled, out of control glitter, graphic t shirts. And I'm not a big fan of the jean line, might as well buy A&F jeans that cost around the same but have much more options and better fits. I just love VS things that make me feel comfortable while i'm in my apartment or at my boyfriend's soccer games. but you're right about the whole over the top hoodies
lisa says:
Thu, 26th Nov 200910:56 am
wow kay, for somebody who's "way out of college" your comment was extremely immature. I wasn't aware that disliking a certain brand of clothing made you to fat to wear it?

You do realize that all the clothes from VS, pink, A&F, hollister, etc. all come from a factory in China, where the people work 12 hr. shifts and put a different label on the clothing at different shifts. (remember, they don't make a lot of $ per hour). Yes some of the clothing is better quality than the others, but if you took the tags and logos of the clothing, I bet 90% of people wouldn't know the difference. Look how much money you are overpaying for this stuff. The manufacturers are just laughing at the low self-esteem idiots in America who would buy designer boogers if it had a name brand on it.
Megg says:
Wed, 16th Dec 20097:30 pm
Geez these comments are sure all over the place. I looked up this topic because I love clothing and I was doing laundry, watching all my v.s sweats come out of the dryer… So I'm 23 and in college. i'm starting to feel like since I'm approaching 25 that maybe I need to retire my v.s sweats….they are not bedazzled, they are just bright…I do not wear the sweat bottoms to class…but sometimes i do the hoodie with a t under, jeans, gym shoes….I kinda feel immature in them to be honest. I'm not sure why…even around the house…Am I too old to wear pink sweats (23)? I have like 5 other pairs in more sophisticated colors and cuts…does anyone think I would look immature in a pink hoodie in class with jeans? I usually have people tell me I look 19/20/…I'm 5'1 100 lbs…but I feel older than 20 that's for sure…Part of me thinks I need to start dressing classier more consistently….please comment on this…I'm open to advice! Thank you ladies

Thu, 21st Jan 201011:48 pm
Wow, I’m surprised to see comments from people who don’t know anything about the product and base their opinions on some of the most obnoxious designs. The PINK line is about the same price as the rest of VS, Aerie, A&E, A&F, or Hollister. The quality is really nice and there are fits for everyone’s style. So what if one design irks you or you don’t like the flare fit? PINK gives you the opportunity to express yourself. Be bright, be comfy, but still be feminine. So what if middle school girls shop there. News flash, middle school girls shop everywhere! That’s all girls do at that age because they’re growing up and they’re exploring their personality. I was a more modest teen and all of my clothes came from the clearance rack at Dillard’s, Macy’s, or Khols. But once I hit my 20s I became more comfortable with my body and wasn’t embarrassed to run to the grocery store in PINK hoodie. And fyi, their demin fits me very well and the quality is still good considering I bought them fall 2008 and wear them every week. I have 4 pairs now and I didn’t pay more than $30 for any of them. A&F jeans, easily $80-$90. And they come in 0-14, short, regular, or long. I can understand wanting a nude or a black bra for practical purposes, but what’s wrong with getting a bra with polka dots or stars all over it? They are targeted towards younger girls so bra sizes range from 32AA to 36D. It’s good to have a little fun underneath your clothes especially in the winter when you’re stuck wearing turtlenecks, jeans, a heavy jacket, and snow boots. I think loud underwear is a great way for any girl to become comfortable with who she is without feeling exposed. I can’t tell you how many of my friends think my bras and underwear are sooo cute but are too shy to buy something like that for themselves. Don’t be embarrassed by what you like or think you’re not right for a particular color or style. Bright colors draw attention to you and encourage confidence, which is something everyone needs. As long as you pay attention to what you’re buying, you’re not going to end up with a shirt that rips or a bra with the wire poking out. Even if you do, VS has a 2 week return policy on damaged merchandise. No, I’m not going to wear PINK to work or out to a dance club, but I wouldn’t wear any of the other casual wear designer brands. Wearing a shirt that says Hope on the front doesn’t make me immature, and to all of those who think that as you get older you have to get boring, you couldn’t be more wrong. If you’re comfortable wearing a pair of bright pink sweatpants with the words LOVE PINK down the left leg around the house then wear them. You’re not hurting anybody. Who cares what people think!?! If you’re complaining about the price, I’m sorry but you get what you pay for. Buy a shirt at Wal-mart for $6, it’s probably not going to last that long. I have a PINK shirt with Rhinestones forming the word PINK. I probably wear it once a month and have had it for 2 years now, not a single rhinestone is missing. How is that cheap quality? I’m not saying it’s wrong to dislike some of the designs or the colors, but labeling people who wear the product simply because you don’t like it is both shallow and immature. Open your eyes, look past the labels, and wear what you want. (Just make sure it fits)

LOVE Pink!! Well…I love the 5 for 25$ underwear deal. I have bought a couple tanks with the little dog barely noticeable in the corner, and the VS sweatpants I have I actually only wear around the house. I was never comfortable with words emblazoned on my butt. I also love their "wear everywhere" bra and "demi tshirt bra". I love the pink brand…but I'm not going to walk around with PINK on my tshirt/sweater/pants and flip flops in huge letters. Subtlety is good. Ive nothing against the lingerie that VS is famous for…but I've always been the simple, plain black/tan bra kinda girl. Btw…if u don't like it…just ignore it…I do it w/Hollister and A&E and A&F all the time. Used to work in those stores….cheap a$$ material for waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much money…got holes in my t's and tanks within a week, at least VS lasts.

I love pink! I am in my 20's, and there's definitely some stuff (crazy blinged, tacky sayings/logos and whatnot) that's horrid. But I like the hoodies and sweats for the most part. I don't buy the shirts with the dumb sayings on them. Their yoga pants are great and make your butt look fabulous. I buy the basic tees (2 for 22) and they are just plain but cute colors and are really soft. I think Abercrombie and Hollister sweats are really ugly. A moose and a seagull? Ugly. The colors are boring and their pants all look the same to me…and they look manly to me. I don't know anyone my age that shops at either of those stores, but alot of my friends do buy pink stuff.

I'm a male, 19 years old, and I go to UCLA. I am extremely turned on by girls that wear pink sweatpants when they fit them well (curves). It's very sexy. I don't mind the hoodies either. I'm thinking of getting my girlfriend pink and vs stuff for her birthday.

Very well said Nikki!
As for people who don't like PINK thats ok thats you own preference and style. But why do you complain about people that do like it ? It's their own style and thats what they like. Care about yourself and not what other people do.
PINK is also made for all ages the bras do come in Ds, but the reason why they don't come any bigger is because they were made for younger girls, from starters all they way up. The whole brand is to make you feel Fun, Flirty, and Young Forever no matter what age you are you can still wear cute fun stuff! Everyone should feel special and that what Victoria Secret does!
All im saying is stop hating. Why does it matter if people like it? When you write a article like this you just make people feel horrible and thats how I felt when I read this. You must really be bored if you have nothing better to do with your time but to hate on things that make other people happy.
PINK will always make me happy:)

I am a huge victoria's secret fan, and pink aswell.. Im not so into their hoodies because they are designed to be short and I don't really like that, but the capri length sweat pants that you mentioned are my favorite. But I have got to agree with you on the price, most of that stuff is outragous.. but that's true with most of victoria's secret now. I was in there last weekend, underwear 3 for $30.. Seriously $10 a pair for underwear onsale.. and that wasn't even the sexy stuff. Maybe they should consider making a more affordable line..

In my personal opinion I would have to disagree lol i used to work for Victoria's secret and i loved it! there is nothing like a discount on PINK! All my underwear and half my wardrobe is VS PINK. And im a big fan of their collegiate collection NC A&T SU all day! AGGIE PRIIIIIDE! but any way i do agree their prices are redunkulous sometimes but if you hit up the semi-annual sale you can leave out with a good portion for your dollar.
if you can spend like $50 on a hollister or AE or A&F hoodie i dont think it makes a difference. everyone has their own personal style. wherever you wanna spend your money is your choice

Why would you pay money to advertise a company with it's logo all over everything?
And why would someone wear clothing that advertises a fake university?!

I love pink!! That is mostly all I wear!! I think their stuff is adorable, and comfy. Those who make fun of it and hate on it probably cannot fit into those kinds of clothes and are just jealous. I have a closet full of pink clothing!!!!!

Sorry yall I love PINK of course my whole wardrobe isnt enveloped with it but I have a hoodie, some tees (not the hideous bling ones), and tons of undies. I honestly do like all of the bright colors their girly and cute and I think that VS was just trying to get teens to feel comfortable with their inner girliness and just have fun. Yeah the stuff is pricey but so are other stores (aerie, gilly hicks, etc.) but if you want cheap undies you can always have fun sporting your walmart 5 for a buck granny panties;) and if you have DD why are you trying to shop for bras in a junior department anyways??? If you take 5 steps to your left hey theres a VS right next door go get your bras from there. Please stop bashing PINK take your clothes not fitting frustrations out on the tredmile not the store, oh and as for the cheap fabric situation all brand clothes is made like that a tee from A&F, Hollister, Gilly Hicks, AE, and even aeropostal could be torn just as easily. PINK OUT-Lauren:)

I like Pink. They are a nice brand. But, I would never pay 40 dollars for a pair of sweatpants I will outgrow within months as I am growing very fast.
I do have a question though– what does "LOVE PINK" even mean? It seems like they are forcing you to love their brand IMO.

I LOVE PINK! Crazy in love with it! Yes some of there stuff I don't like…but I haven't yet found a brand, that completely satisfies all my desires. I love the hoodies all the way down to their flip-flops. It's fun and cute. PINK is like their brand name and "LOVE PINK" is like their motto. (trust me don't have to force you to love their brand name, plenty of more people will love it for you) Im black and will rock Victoria Secrets/PINK wear everyday of the week if I could. I have this shirt with rhinestones on it (none missing since last Christmas) and I get so many compliments on this shirt! Girls I don't even know will stop me and ask when did I buy it and say it's oh so very cute. And don't even get me started on the cute bras and undies! AH-DOR-ABLE! They have plenty of sales, like sweats or pjs for $20 thats a deal! (I haven't paid over $40 for a single item, and I have plenty of stuff from them) You get a free shirt and discounts if your with pink nation, what more do you want? It's cute, sexy and fun. It's nice to because I don't buy lingerie. Guys are just turned on by my pink stuff, no need for the extra lace. Lol Im a girly girl and some sweats don't express how I feel but PINK! I have nice sized breast (36C) and Victoria Secrets/PINK compliments them very well with a x-small tshirt!
Their pjs are super cute! I actually love the color pink so ya! I'm willing to rock it, especially when I look very good doing so. I'm 18 and would wear it till I couldn't fit it anymore! Don't be ashamed to express what you want to wear! You will be surprised at what happens when you be yourself.<3

Well, everyone has their own opinion. My assumption is that you are not a high-schooler, correct me if I'm wrong. So you have a totally different taste. A lot of teenagers like the bright colors, and if they don't, they don't have to buy it. I think that Pink is a great brand, because high school girls don't all like only the Victoria's Secret items, some find it too mature and sexy. For girls that want fun bras and underwear, Pink is a good place to go. And they are expensive, but that's why it's fun to splurge, just like shopping at Sephora for one new eyeshadow costing $65 dollars.

I am a college student and I love many of the PiNK clothes, I do not like their lingerie so much (I rather sexier underwear), but some of the henleys and tops are adorable. Yes, they offer many clothes that have extravagant colors, perfect for very young girls. But they also sell really nice and cute tops that do not have the huge PiNK sign on them. Maybe with the doggy and the brand much smaller, and those are the kind of stuff that I get from Victoria's Secret PiNK. So, in conclusion, PiNK rocks because they do offer clothes that fit different tastes.

I love Pink!
I have worked for V.S. for awhile now and I love working in the Pink zone.
It is so much fun. The merchandise is so cute and it is so easy to sell to customers because it really is that great. There are ALWAYS promotions going on. Like right now, we are giving away an awesome tote bag for only 5 dollars with ANY pink purchase. The underwear is so cute and fun and colorful. and SEXY. There is a wide variety of bras from a 7 way demi bra to a simple push up to 2 bras for 32 dollars deal. Seriously, don't hate on pink.
I have ladies from the age of 9-60 shopping in Pink. and Everyone finds something to suit their needs.

I think the Pink line is perfectly fine. although i'm a high school senior and i find myself a little mature for my age, pink is the place to go if you want fun, colorful stuff. i shop mostly the regular victoria's secret line because i love the lace and super-sexy best, but i do peep my head into pink once in a while. if i do buy something from there i avoid the things that have the logo written all over because i think it's just tacky but the bras are really cute and fun and so are some of their clothes

PINK is awesome!
People shop in pink ranging from the age of 13-40
I have seen several ladies that are 30-40 age group shopping in pink.
They are made very well and they are fun!
They are targeting girls that are just blossoming and discovering their womanly bodies in a fun welcoming way!
With the fun panties it welcomes them to try different styles… hipsters..boyshorts…bikinis…etc
It is fun colorful and I love everything about it.
It is priced the way it is because of the high demand.. if you have ever taken an economics class you know that high demand equals high prices…..
PINK is amazing. and brings a smile to everyones face no matter what the age, background, etc.
Don't hate on such a great thing.

Dress however you feel best, just because someone out there might say Pink is for middle schoolers doesn't mean you have to listen. I wear my pink hoodie to school all the time (im 23 too) with some workout pants or jeans and I could care less what anyone thinks!

PINK is a euphemism for "pussy", "PINK taco", "vagina", whatever you want to call it. Some like to call it "JUICY" on their butt. You can think it's cute, sexy, bright, fun and full of confidence all you want….but you are the ones that are having the joke played on you. You've been gullable and are ignorant to the truth of it and it's underlying message(not sure how you didn't put 2 and 2 together and get 4 big letters "PINK". Girls…ask guys "What does 'PINK' mean to you, when it comes to females?" They'll tell ya! Funny thing is, they know you are a walking advertisement for pussy…and you don't. You just think you are expressing your feminine side and being fashionable, showing the world where you shop and that you've got taste. Well, keep on thinking whatever makes you feel better in that cozy little blind folded head of yours. Personally, I think you should all sue V.S. for taking advantage of you in such a way. After all, you have been made the victims of their multi million dollar profit of PINK propaganda! Have a nice rest of your day and if you care about your friends…fill them in. Stop buying in to the brainwashing of money hungry companies who know just how ignorant enough you will be to make money off of. Get with it! Get some class and get out of those woman degrading pants. Be a real woman! Not V.S.'s cheap bimbo in "PUSSY" pants. You are better than that!
My butt is your competition…It's sexy on it's own and it doesn't have a BIG WORD blocking it's view.
Chew on that one a bit. Oh! And please don't laugh at the ignorant people who haven't been informed just yet….fill them in…women need to stick together to be strong and overcome!
Ya ya ya….you're just sitting there thinking…but they're soooo cute! Well, if you like being the "butt" of a joke and paying money to be that "butt"…suit yourself.

I'm not going to lie and say I don't own any pink. They've got some comfy sweats ok? But seriously, their over-use of logos is absolutely ridiculous. And really who needs bedazzlement on their booty? Seriously now.

What's almost as bad a a middle school or high school student with PINK across her butt is a 40-something picking up her kids from carpool with PINK across her ass! Trust me, I've seen it- it isn't a pretty sight. I couldn't agree more- the PINK logo boldly printed across your chest or ass looks ridiculous, whether you are 14 or 44! SO cheesy! What's worse, the dye VS uses is horrendous and stains things. How do I know this? I was given some PINK sweat pants as a b-day gift (from someone who obviously doesn't know me very well, but hey- they tried!) When I opened the gift I figured, okay, these seem like comfy sweats. After all, I can just wear them cuddled up at home, right? Followed all pre-washing instructions (because G-d knows who may have tried on things from that store first and there is NO WAY I would wear before washing!) Guess what? MY ENTIRE bed sheets were PINK! My undergarments literally turned PINK TOO!!!!! HATE PINK even more now- poorly made and the majority of the apparel from the PINK collection looks absolutely ridiculous. (And to think someone paid $52 for the sweats and matching top I got! SO DUMB!!!!!!!!!) PINK SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love your comment. I hate when girls where things that they think make them sexy or cool and all they are doing is attracting males for all the wrong reasons. If the first thing they see is how scantily dressed you are, do you think they are going to care about who you are as a person? No, they want to find out what you have on under your barely there clothing.

I love their yoga pants/capris/leggings. I wear them figure skating, therefore there's no such thing as too much bling. The logos "pink" and "love pink" are okay, but I don't like the stuff with cheesy wording either. There's some variation within the same size. Also the bling on some pairs fell out really easily while on others it's fine, so I think they kind of have a problem with quality control. About half the rhinestones fell off one pair – I got really good at gluing on rhinestones fixing it.

You are so right about this line. The girl that lives next door to me is 11 and she and her friend are always decked out in this gear. The line was interesting and fun at first but to see pre-teens wearing it forget it's not cool or chic anymore.

So I feel just the same as you. Recently I got VS Pink Lace Back Bikini panties saying "Totally Babe". Well when I got it, I felt like it looks too immature for me. (I am 22 and senior in college). I feel like that kind of panty (also other pink panties with cheesy slogans) is something that a gal in puberty would wear. So I decided to set it aside. C:

Who cares? Clothes are clothes. Yes, they are way more expensive than tey should be but so is just about everything else unless you are shopping somewhere else for clothes like walmart or target etc.
So what if some people like it and think it's cute?
If you don't like it, don't shop there.

Honestly, the PINK line is suited towards teens. If you dont like the clothing line, its simple, dont wear it. Im not a huge fan of all the bling and the high cost, but come on! If you like the clothing and ur happy with the style, wear it. I happen to really love their clothing. Looking at all these comments that say they hate the brand is useless. If you like it, GREAT. If you dont, please dont nag about how u are not fond of it.

I agree Liza. However I do love some of there stuff
I have a lot of there sweats and yoga pants that say pink.
However I didn’t pay those prices. I waited and got my stuff
During a sale or online. I see those studded pants with pink
Written on it and I see the price and I agree sorry I’m not paying
30-50 bucks for pants expecially sweats. So i look for something
Similiar at target and they look just like pink yoga pants and
There better quality and cheaper (16.99) sorry I love VS pink but
There prices can shove it :p

I think youre kind of missing the point of Victorias post…the clothes shes talking about arent 'scanty' at all, they are sweats and hoodies…stuff that mostly doesnt show skin at all…Its just the fact of the brand name itself.
And yea, you know its realy funny to me because when it first came out all i could think was pink=punani….Brought to mind that old joke about ''its all pink on the inside''….no question thats what they have in mind.
In general, I really am not a big fan of all that…BUT…I do admit I have a couple pairs of their sweatpants. those are the only items I own that say the brand on them like that, but they are extremely comfortable in the way they are cut and I wear them around the house and when I am just running out to the store for something or whatever.
I kind of laugh when I wear them too, cause Im in on the joke and get a kick out of it thinking about how everyone thinks its this cute thing but I imagine how it would look if the pants said "coochie" on the butt or something….Heh.
So…Chalk one up for "totally aware, and in general disapprove, but not gonna read SO much into it and put so much weight on it that I cant enjoy a very soft cozy pair of sweats (that I got on sale, of course, or got as a gift, cuz f*ck paying full price for them!) once in a while and laugh at the whole thing. because being able to laugh at yourself is a good thing. And I know I'm not a skankalicious cooch-monger, so, its all good. Wearing the pants does not turn me into that on the occasional circumstances when I do wear them. Good comment though, you definitely have a point and its always nice to read intelligent comments on a blog
guest says:
Sat, 10th Mar 201210:16 pm
Hahaha….i like some of the pink items, like a lot of the commenters here, and dont hate it at all, but those dogs are so f*cking stupid. They arent "collectibles." I cannot fathom why people want them, or would actually pay money for them like some of the ones I see on ebay sometimes.
Also, your comment is hilariously hateful, so much that I am tempted to think you are trolling us all.
Yes, you are a 'dyke' if you dont like the color pink! (sarcasm) you know, she wasnt even talking about the COLOR pink here…
And even if she was, I wasnt aware that if you are a woman and you dislike the color pink it means you are homosexual. I guess because, you know, everybody knows that lesbians are all super-butch wannabe men, so they WOULD hate pink, wouldnt they? what are you, 12?

Sounds like PINK isn't for you. Best not wear it. I'm in my mid 40s and rock in the shorties for running. I look better in the yoga shorties than many "kids." The important thing is you wear what makes you feel good. Really no need to "rant" about it online. But sometimes, you gotta have your say. We hear you and I certainly respect that the brand isn't for you.
