So, a long time ago I said I bought 4 pairs of jeans and hoped to never buy jeans again. But then I had a moment of panic and returned most of them. Jeans make me nervous. And that was just so many for me to handle. There was no way I could look good in 4 different kinds of jeans. I don't look good in jeans.
Clearly I have issues.
But, since I returned almost all of them, the time came again for me to buy jeans. And, as I'd relayed to you last month, my bff Joseph has moved to NYC to pursue his fashion marketing dreams. The stupid jerk. So I was left all on my own. Of the 4 pairs I had bought before, the only ones I kept were Joe's Jeans. I took that as a sign that Joe's Jeans were for me. I thought then it would be best to skip Bloomies and the many brands they carry, and concentrate my efforts -- I headed to the Joe's Jeans store on Damen Ave. And I brought Emily and Kim to console me when I inevitably burst into tears. They're nice friends.
It was reaffirmed that Joe's "Honey" jeans are the ones for me. Mr. EWP calls them the "ghetto booty" cut, but they're actually described as being for curvy women, and I am def on the curvy side, though not the ghetto booty side. So I got a dark pair. Dark wash jeans make me happy. But then the crazy set in, and I asked the man to bring me a grey pair. Wait, a grey skinny pair. I don't wear skinny jeans. My big ol hips really make me look ridic in skinny jeans. But then I tried these Joe's ones on. And with a little encouragement from Kim (who was so excited by my grey skinny jeans that she bought a pair for herself!), I bought my first pair of skinny jeans. Well, technically my second, but this pair I didn't return. No, no returning here. In fact, I'm wearing them right now.
What is the world coming to?
Oh, and jeans shopping only made me cry twice this time. More or less... :)
