It has been so long since I have written on this blog, but I have been inspired by some things recently and must write about them!
I was out and about a couple weeks ago at a mall and decided to look for some new jeans. Jean shopping is a very frustrating experience for me since I have a small waist, but bigger booty and thighs. I am convinced that these days jeans are only made for 6ft tall women with no butt and stick legs. While I was shopping I found myself surrounded by several pairs of distressed and ripped jeans. Now, I LOVE the distressed look of furniture, but I was having a very difficult time grasping that a pair of ripped jeans started at $70. $70 for something that is already ripped up? I just don't get it. Sure, there are some pairs of distressed jeans that look really cute, but I just can't justify spending a lot of money on something that is already ruined. I understand it is "fashion", but fashion that is already ripped up should not cost so much. Can you get a refund if the holes in your new pants become huge after one wearing/washing? I saw a pair of True Religion ripped jeans that started at $160!!! I just can't seem to wrap my head around this whole concept. If I am going to spend money on new clothes, they are definitely going to be hole free! Seriously, I guess I just don't get it!
I don't get it either. That's why I love my Old Navy jeans! And sadly, I do have a pair of True Religion and I never wear them:(
ReplyDeleteI do not understand why people pay that much for jeans! I get two for 29 at JCP and love them! My two really good girlfriends swear they can't buy anything but the $160 jeans! I'm like really! That's just ridiculous no one cares what jeans you are wearing as long as you are wearing something! :)
