MY JEANS COST LESS THAN MY LIP GLOSS

MY JEANS COST LESS THAN MY LIP GLOSS

$12 denim you'll actually want to wear.


Here's a quick list of my favorite jeans:

Made in Heaven skinny Paris pants, procured in London for $300, but totally worth it because I feel like Audrey Hepburn in them (okay, Audrey Hepburn with frizz).

Hudson wide-leg bells, stolen from a socialite friend in an Ali McGraw phase, originally priced at $250.

Old Navy straight leg slacks, bought because I've never seen my butt look that good, $25.

But now it's even better - those Old Navy jeans are going more than half off, with every jean in the store and online getting slashed to $12 this weekend.

They're cute.  They're cheap.  They're easy to find, regardless of where you live.  And you can upstage the other jeans in your closet for less than the price of the Vampire Weekend album.  How very unexpected.

The price is great! Though i honestly don't think that Old Navy's jeans are flattering at all, unless you're a size 0. But i do have skinny jeans from there, but they needed so much altering. Good price though.

i personally cant stand old navy jeans. they're cheaply made and make your butt look oddly misshapen. no offense but cheaper is almost never better according to quality.

I love Old Navy for a bargain, but recently I found out they are one of many chain stores which use sweatshop labor. Check the label. Don't buy unless it says "Made In U.S.A"!

OMG! why nylon why! i work at Old Navy, now with this up its going to be way more crowded!!! hahaa. but, i must admit, old navy jeans are pretty great, although, they streach out quick.

Old navy jeans don't fit me well. They didn't last me long either. People, NO ONE IS BEING A SNOB! Nobody said "ewww old navy!" They said that the jeans didn't fit them well and weren't of a good quality. They aren't saying eww to anything, the jeans were bad and didn't fit, how is that their fault? How does that make them a snob? Because they spent $$ on a pair of pants that turned out bad? ZOMG,how DARE you not have a good opinion of jeans that didn't fit right, you snobby lifeless bitch! They are twelve bucks,I DEMAND you buy them and turn them into capris, because it's not like you could thrift a pair that actually FIT for five bucks! Jeez people if someone doesn't like it it doesn't make them a snob!

Lyd

I'll buy $12 dollar jeans! Also I LOVE how quick people are to throw the word snob around, just because someone doesn't like the fit of a pair of pants!

so glad you love the hudsons! we try to make all our fits as flattering as possible, but those wide legs are especially awesome.

Who grows out of jeans in a year unless you're still in high school? Old Navy is pretty tight when it comes to tops and whatnot, but I have to agree...their jeans do have a bad fit and the material lacks quality. I do love bargains tho...i'm a bargain addict. ebay!

ummm whats everyone buggin about? i bought a pair of skinny ankle length jeans with zippers on the outside seam at the bottoms of the legs. I got them exactly 2 years ago for $30, it's not $12 but its not bad. i look awesome in them, the color stayed, the fit never changed, and i cannot even begin to count the number of compliments i get on them or how many times people ask where i got them when i wear them. you're all a bunch of idiots. of course you arent going to get a custom AG fit from old navy jeans, but it's a deal and if you have a nice lil body you'll probably look good anyway. blah.

Old Navy isn't exactly hip in my book. However, I don't think it's WHERE you get your jeans that counts, it's HOW THEY LOOK on you. I definitely would not pay $300 for a pair of jeans! Come on, people, let's be smart consumers! Regardless of all the great deals out there, though, I still have to order my jeans from Alloy.com because of my 37" inseam.

Not every jean from every store fits everybody! Don't we all know that? Old Navy (and F21) are great for having jeans that are only $12.50; if they don't fit you, try one of the other 50 jean-selling stores in the mall!

I love low-cost, good-quality things, and I always find them at Old Navy. I'm really short and hard to fit, and I almost always leave Old Navy with a big bag of fashionable clothes that didn't blow my budget!

well, when i worked on that saturday, many people didnt seem to care. we made around 50,000 bucks that day. there was a line before opening. many people really liked the oldnavy jeans. we sold soo many pairs of jeans from every department. it was a GREAT success.

as great as the price is, i really hate old navy denim. the sizes are HUGE. skinny jeans are the worst, they're always way too big in the legs for me. so they always look ridiculous. and the cheap labor thing bothers me too.

OKAY PEOPLE. listen up. most of the people here dont have the same opinions on jeans. most dont liek OLD NAVY. and for the other few that do, well a pat on the back for defending your brand of jeans. but some people here, like me, dont FIT in old navy jeans, YES THEY DO stretch out quite quickly, and jesus how is it our faults that we made a mistake on a shoopping day-it doesnt just happen at old navyyy, it could happen ANYWHERE, so dont call us snobs?!we dont like it, we dont like it. move forward peoples. okay buddy, and the pricing like MiH which is THREEHNDRED DOLLARS, its pretty damn expensive for a pair of jeans, but hey; were all dfferent and can afford different things. dont go bugging around bc ITS TOO EXPENSIVE SO DONT BUY IT.GET SOMETHING CHEAPER ITS NOT WORTH IT. oh please, like your paying. another thing, THE PRICING doesnt always relate to the quality, but it often does; and if it still looks good ON YOUR BODY, then okayy congratulations. but it wont end up the same on everyone else's body! not everyone one is the same size, like hellloo..? especially when the pants woul STRETCH in a heartbeat. and yeahyeahyeahhh we cann all turn the badlooking demin into some pretty other thing, or we could learn from the mistake and shop elsewhere. hmmmm

wont tell ;]
