a moment of insanity
www.revolveclothing.com offers free shipping and free returns. so last night, at about one in the morning, i ordered four pairs of jeans which totaled to $760.00
!!!!!!
before i pressed the 'order' button, i yelled for one of my roommates, nick, to come talk me out of it. he said, "no way, don't do it!" but i didn't listen (i never do), and so ended up ordering $760.00 worth of jeans. surprisingly enough, i actually have the money to cover this brief bout of insanity, although i was planning on going on a mini-vacation one of these weekends. one roundtrip plane ticket to chicago or toronto costs $199, the same price as one pair of jeans.
the damage: two pairs of earnest sewns and two of paper denim & cloth. those are kind of hard to find in boston so if i could, i'd try them on in person. i think those are the only two brands that will fit my hard-to fit body just right. i have a smallish waist and rounded hips so those jeans that are straight cut in the hips (which are like, most jeans) won't work on me at all. besides that, i only have one pair of jeans (levi's premiums from 4 years ago), and they are totally worn out, a hole on the butt pocket, stretched out, and chewed up at the bottoms. i need one pair of jeans. ones i'll actually hem this time. i've been looking for the perfect jeans for over a year now.
hopefully, one of those will fit me perfectly and i won't be one of those people who orders all this stuff and then returns all of it.

You can actually buy these jeans at my friend's store in Andover, Ma 25 minutes from boston. Her store's name is Jeans Addiction. Let me know if you need directions getting there... I know the feeling, I have bought a pair of jeans for $250 before
wait till your sister reads this and gives you crap for spending $760.00 aahah I love it.
