Not in Vancouver - you're lucky otherwise. My laziness = spending more money than I should on MANY occasions.

You would have to go to the States, they actually know the definition of the word "SALE" there, Lol.

I've had many designer jeans, and although they are common, I am really partial to Seven's. They fit me well, I LOVE the wash and of course, I am a huge Friends fan...Jennifer and Courteney wore TONS of Seven's on that show (although it ended a few years ago, lol!) and they still do. They're a classic.

Rock and Republic, DARK denim is great for going out. Otherwise I'm meh to them. They're too all over the place..and people that don't have style (not in a derogatory sense, but a group of Surrey people, not that ALL Surrey is bad...) just wear them in a really tacky way.

True Religions are too low for my taste, but I like the thickness of the denim. They are quality, for sure.

Hmm. And also, Habitual skinny's I like but they fit big (as to R&R)...I have some others in my closet, I'm trying to cock my head in to see from the bed, LOL. Oh Paige are nice.

Definitely go to the States. With the relatively strong Canadian dollar (compared to before; of course right now we are slightly weaker than the US dollar), you can get designer jeans for around $150 USD (ie Sevens), while in Canada they are around $200. Also, if you're short like me, you can get designer jeans for kids - same styles, slightly shorter hems, and around $130 USD.

lemondiva: lol i am short ><
so which stores exactly can i get these jeans from? cuz i don't go to the states that often

My advice is to go and try on the jeans you like in a store, and then hunt around online for them on sale. I did this for a pair of Habituals (tried them on in Aritzia first so I knew the size) and then I found them online for half price. Just avoid ebay because there's lots of fakes.

which sites have genuine jeans? also what are the store names that sell premium jeans in the states?

Revolveclothing.com is really good. Try the US department stores (barneys, nordstrom, saks, etc-they all have a good selection of online denim, especially nordstrom).

niagara falls fashion outlets, the Saks off 5th has true religions and sevens for $119.. i saw the same ones here for $250+.
though that was men's.. i'm pretty sure women's has similar prices.

aw but i don't live in toronto Sad

i've never seen premium jeans in malls in the states before, but maybe its just because i wasn't looking hard enough
so what would be considered 'cheap' for some brands? like compared to their original price

if you ever go to the states, check nordstrom rack.
it's like the discounted sale store across from alderwood mall.
my sister got 7fam for only $66 american!

omg$66!!!! wow!!! alderwood is in seattle?
i just searched the nordstrom site and the kids jeans r way cheaper than the adult ones! like true religions are like at least $50 less

^ I'm preeetty sure Alderwood Mall is actually a little past Seattle. But they also have a Nordstrom Rack in Seattle I believe, I've been to that one before.

I like Citizens the best. But Sevens are a close second. And like meg-san said, revolveclothing.com is the best price I've found them online from an online retailer, their sales are pretty gooood!

greenV: Sorry for replying late - I got the kids Sevens at Nordstrom.

lemon diva: so how much were they? and on the site i couldn't find the inseam of the jean so i don't have a clue how they'd fit.

lemondiva · Posted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 9:11 pm Post subject:

They were about $130 I believe. I got a kids size 12, but I still had to have them hemmed. Embarassed

Since I think my ideal inseam is 30, I think the size 12 inseam was 32, which is better as most designer jeans have 34 or 36 inseams. Plus if you're smaller, like kids size 10, the inseam would be shorter.

greenV · Posted: Sat Apr 12, 2008 7:11 pm Post subject:

whoa wouldn't inseam 32 be too long for kids? i would nvr be able to fit into a size 10! lol hopefully i can find shorter ones
ty for the info

lemondiva · Posted: Wed Apr 16, 2008 4:25 pm Post subject:

No problem. And yeah, they seriously make jeans way too long for kids. Or I'm just too short haha.
