Denim Sample Sale Stash
Here’s my stash of jeans from the super secret denim sample sale today:

All are Hudson jeans except for the Frankie B in the middle. The white ones are capris. All were priced at $45 each! I don’t know what I was thinking, getting all triangle pocket jeans because they did have this which is a more current style. But I do love Hudson’s triangle pockets. Can’t you tell?
I also got a Grail skull tee ($25) and a Frankie B puffy winter jacket in light blue ($45). It’s funny that I got the jacket because I just bought two puffy jackets yesterday at Third Street Promenade, one in white the other in black.
They also had Antik Fawcett colored jeans for $45. I almost got a pink one but decided that they really made my butt too flat for my liking and the fit was too tight anyway. I also saw some True Religion corduroys but I already have a pair of brown cords so I passed on those. I didn’t see any Seven For All Mankind, Citizens of Humanity or Rock & Republic jeans at all. They did have hot pink COH velvet(?) pairs. Except for the whole section of Frankie B clothing, the racks were arranged by size so I didn’t bother to look at the other racks that weren’t in my size anymore.
As advertised, the prices were $25, $35 or $45 depending on the brand. Most of them were last year’s styles with a few current styles mixed in. I’m glad I went. There were no lines, the warehouse seemed more spacious than the venue they had on Sunset back in March, and prices were fab! Less crowds = more time to check out more stuff. The only suggestion I would make to the organizers is to provide an area for “holds” for items we were getting. That way, we could try on more without having to carry a heavy load everytime. Thirteen pairs on one arm and a handbag on another could get quite heavy. But who am I to complain? It was a fab deal!

Hey! Omgosh, I’m soo mad I didn’t go! The sale sounded AMAZING! Hudsons for $45?! I looove the triangle pocket as well…and the fit is great!I definitely have to look out for it next time they roll on by…. so my real question is..Were there any True Religions?

jeans, yep $45. i haven’t worn them yet though so i’m thinking of selling them. and yes, there were true religions (cords mostly) but i don’t remember how much they were selling for. so signup for the mailing list at thewarehousesale.com so that if they even have one again, you’ll be in the know!

[...] Here goes: Resist the urge to buy just because “it’s on sale” or “it was such a good deal”. Those $45 jeans I got last April? Three pairs are still unworn. The stuff I got at Barney’s Warehouse Sale? Three items are still in the shopping bag. I still think I got fantastic buys but my not wearing them has something to do with resolution #2… [...]
