Prospectus Supplement
To Prospectus dated November 5, 2010

5.625% Senior Notes due 2023


We are offering $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2023. We will pay interest on the
notes on October 15 and April 15 of each year, beginning April 15, 2014. The notes will mature on October 15, 2023.
We may redeem some or all of the notes at any time at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus
accrued and unpaid interest plus a "make-whole" premium. We may also redeem up to 35% of the notes using the proceeds of certain
equity offerings completed before October 15, 2016. If a change of control triggering event as defined in this prospectus supplement
under the heading "Description of the Notes--Change of control" occurs, we may be required to offer to purchase the notes from the
holders.
The notes will rank equally in right of payment with all our existing and future senior debt and rank senior to all our future
subordinated debt, if any. The notes will be guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries on a senior unsecured basis and will therefore
rank senior to any series of our existing and future senior unsecured notes that are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries to the extent of
the value of the assets of such subsidiary guarantors. The notes and the guarantees will rank effectively junior to all secured debt of
ours and the guarantors to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.
The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Currently, there is no public market for the notes.
Investing in the notes involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-12 of this
prospectus supplement for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an
investment in the notes.

Our Company
Founded in 1963 in Columbus, Ohio, we have evolved from an apparel-based specialty retailer to a segment leader
focused on women's intimate and other apparel, personal care and beauty categories that make customers feel sexy, sophisticated
and forever young. We sell our merchandise through company-owned specialty retail stores in the United States ("U.S."), Canada
and the United Kingdom ("U.K."), which are primarily mall-based, and through websites, catalogue and international franchise,
license and wholesale partners. We are committed to building a family of the world's best fashion retail brands, offering
captivating customer experiences that drive long-term loyalty.
Victoria's Secret, including Victoria's Secret Pink, is the leading specialty retailer of women's intimate and other
apparel with fashion-inspired collections, prestige fragrances and cosmetics, celebrated supermodels and world-famous runway
shows. We sell our Victoria's Secret products at more than 1,000 Victoria's Secret stores in the U.S., Canada and U.K., through
the Victoria's Secret catalogue and online at www.VictoriasSecret.com. Additionally, Victoria's Secret brand products are also
sold in stores operated by partners under a franchise or wholesale model throughout the world.

Table of Contents
Industry leading brands
We believe that our two flagship brands, Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works, are highly recognized and others,
including Pink and La Senza, exhibit brand recognition which provides us with a competitive advantage. These brands are
aspirational at accessible price points and have a loyal customer base. These brands allow us to target markets across the
economic spectrum, across demographics and across the world.

· At Victoria's Secret, we market products to the college-age woman with Pink and then transition her into glamorous
and sexy product lines, such as Angels, Very Sexy and Body by Victoria. While bras and panties are the core of

what we do, these brands also give our customers choices in clothing, accessories, fragrances, personal care,
swimwear and athletic attire.

· Bath & Body Works caters to our customers' entire well-being, providing shower gels and lotions, aromatherapy,

soaps and sanitizers, home fragrance and personal care accessories.

· In Canada, La Senza is a leader in young women's intimate apparel. La Senza offerings include bras, panties,

sleepwear, loungewear and accessories.
In-store experience and store operations
We view the customer's in-store experience as an important vehicle for communicating the image of each brand. We
utilize visual presentation of merchandise, in-store marketing, music and our sales associates to reinforce the image represented
by the brands.
Our in-store marketing is designed to convey the principal elements and personality of each brand. The store design,
furniture, fixtures and music are all carefully planned and coordinated to create a unique shopping experience. Every brand
displays merchandise uniformly to ensure a consistent store experience, regardless of location. Store managers receive detailed
plans designating fixture and merchandise placement to ensure coordinated execution of the company-wide merchandising
strategy.
Our sales associates and managers are a central element in creating the atmosphere of the stores by providing a high
level of customer service.
Product development, sourcing and logistics
We believe a large part of our success comes from frequent and innovative product launches, which include bra launches
at Victoria's Secret and La Senza and new fragrance launches at Bath & Body Works. Our merchant, design and sourcing teams
have a long history of bringing innovative products to our customers. Additionally, we believe that our sourcing function (Mast
Global) has a long and deep presence in the key sourcing markets including those in the United States and Asia, which helps us
partner with the best manufacturers and get high quality products quickly.
Experienced and committed management team
We were founded in 1963 and have been led since inception by Leslie H. Wexner. Our senior management team has a
wealth of retail and business experience at L Brands and other companies such as Neiman Marcus, The Gap, Inc., The Home
Depot, Land's End, Levi Strauss and Yum Brands. We believe that we have one of the most experienced management teams in
retail.

Strategy
Our strategy supports our mission to build a family of the world's best fashion retail brands offering captivating
customer experiences that drive long-term loyalty.
To execute our strategy, we are focused on these key strategic imperatives:


· Grow and maximize profitability of our core brands in current channels and geographies;


· Extend our core brands into new channels and geographies;


· Build enabling infrastructure and capabilities;


· Become the top destination for talent; and


· Return value to our shareholders.
We have a multi-year goal to increase operating margins for our brands through increased sales productivity,
merchandise margin expansion and expense control. With regard to merchandise margin expansion, we actively manage our
inventory to minimize the level of promotional activity, and we will continue to work with our merchandise vendors on
innovation, quality, speed and cost. Finally, we have and will continue to optimize our marketing expense by concentrating our
expenditures on efficient and return-generating programs. In 2012, we made significant progress towards improving our operating
income rate.
The following is a discussion of certain of our key strategic imperatives:
Grow and maximize profitability of our core brands in current channels and geographies
Our overriding focus is on the substantial growth opportunity in North America.
The core of Victoria's Secret is bras and panties. We see clear opportunities for substantial growth in these categories
by focusing on product newness and innovation and expanding into under-penetrated market and price segments. In our direct
channel, we have the infrastructure in place to support growth well into the future. We believe our direct channel is an important
form of brand advertising given the ubiquitous nature of the internet and our large customer file.
The core of Bath & Body Works is its home fragrance and personal care product lines, including shower gels, lotions,
soaps and sanitizers which together make up the majority of sales and profits for the business. Additionally,
www.BathandBodyWorks.com continues to exhibit significant year-over-year growth.
Extend our core brands into new channels and geographies
We began our international expansion with the acquisition of La Senza at the beginning of 2007. Since 2008, we have
opened 77 Bath & Body Works stores, 17 Victoria's Secret full assortment stores and 10 Victoria's Secret Pink stores in Canada.
We continue to expand our presence outside of North America. During the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013, we
accomplished the following:

· Victoria's Secret Beauty and Accessories Stores--Our partners opened 37 additional Victoria's Secret Beauty and

Accessories stores bringing the total to 143.
