Shopping on a Budget

Posted by fashiondevo on May 2, 2007

If you’re looking to save money, one of the best ways to save is to cut down on your unnecessary expenses. This can range from having one less meal at a restaurant every week to moving to a smaller apartment. Cutting down on expenses doesn’t necessarily mean that you don’t buy as many things; you can save quite a bit if you buy the same items at lower prices.

Buying discounted clothes is a great way to save, since you need to buy some clothes one way or another. Though many people, myself included, try to avoid buying clothes we don’t need, sometimes a new job or just boredom with your own wardrobe will prompt you to go clothes shopping. Most clothes in department stores are sold at a significant markup, which means that if you pay attention and wait for a sale or a clearance you can get discounted clothes and pay ½ as much as you would if you were to buy the clothes at their retail prices. This holds true for men’s, women’s, and even children’s clothes in almost every department store in America. Watch for particularly deep discounts right after the holidays when stores are trying to clear out the inventories they’ve built up for the holiday season. Also, look for sales at the end of seasons. Leftover winter clothing is usually sold at deep discounts when spring rolls around, and summer clothes can be picked up for a song in late fall. The best way to pick up discounted clothes at rock-bottom prices is to keep an eye on the types of clothes you want over the course of a few months, not buying until they go on sale. This strategy will let you get the best bargains in retail department stores.

Now a days, you don’t have to shop at places like the Salvation Army, or Goodwill outlet. Many people scoff at the idea of buying pre-owned discounted clothes. Sometimes it can be a fun idea and you can find some really great vintage items. If you’re not up to wearing other people’s clothing you can always go to low-buget stores like Old Navy, Marshall’s and other oulets. Some places, will have suits and dresses from top designers like Polo and Dolce & Gabanna, clothes in great condition at amazing prices. All of these clothing are pretty much like the orginals, the stores allow you to dress in designer clothes at department store prices. It may take a little more hunting in order to track down good deals. However, if you’re willing to sort through the racks and racks of clothes you can often snag some amazing deals.

Brand Name Jeans

If you are looking for brand name jeans, look no further than the internet. There are lots of online clothing retailers that carry brand name jeans, and they usually have a greater selection and wider range of sizes available too, than at many retail department stores. For example, at www.marshallsclothingcompany.com, shoppers can check out great brand name jeans from Levi’s, Calvin Klein, Gas, Guess, Billabong, Carhartt, Tommy Hilfiger, Candies, Buffalo, Fidelity, Chip & Pepper, Blue Cult, Bartack, Mavi, Juicy Couture, Manager, Nautica, Parasuco, Rock & Republic, True Religion, and many more! Another popular site that carries brand name jeans is (what else?!) www.brandnamejeans.com! This retailer features flat rate shipping of only $5.99 on all orders, and has a great selection of brand name jeans, sunglasses, ponchos, and other designer clothing.

Of course, with popularity, comes a more expensive price tag; some of these brands cost as much as $350 per pair, if you want to pay full price. However, most of us don’t want to pay that much, which is why discount retailers of brand name jeans are so popular. Who wouldn’t want to pay less for expensive brand name jeans? You’re the only one that has to know, unless of course you want to share your secret!

If you have a favorite brand name jean, go directly to their company website or outlet to check out the latest styles and promotions. Items that are being discontinued are often on sale to make room for the new line coming out. You can get great brand name jeans at a lower price, leaving you more money to buy that cute top that you just can’t live without! If you’re not sure how a certain brand fits, try a pair on while out at the mall. If you like them and the price is reasonable, then buy them, if not, go home and shop online. You may get a better price, and you’ll more than likely find the exact style and size you’re looking for! Shopping should be fun, so get busy!

Baggy Jeans – A Cool Style

Posted by fashiondevo on December 17, 2006

Bluejeans have been in style for as long as I can remember. Certainly, they have been in style for my whole life. Although the style has changed from time to time, with bell bottoms coming and going and jeans getting tighter or looser, in general all the styles have seem to fit well. That is the whole point in blue jeans after all – they have this timeless good look to them based on comfort and cut. That is why the current style seems so silly to me.

I just cannot understand the baggy jeans look. Oh sure, I’ve worn somewhat baggy jeans before, but they were comfortable. That was the whole point after all. Baggy jeans, at least the way they used to be, were not ridiculously huge but just big enough to feel comfortable on you. The idea was that if you look comfortable, you feel comfortable, and people feel comfortable looking at you. But the baggy jeans of today are just ridiculous. I have seen baggy men’s jeans so big that people wearing them have to constantly hold onto them around the belt. If they let go, the jeans will fall down around their ankles. I have seen baggy women’s jeans that are made so large, and styled in such a way, that you cannot tell whether they are jeans or a denim skirt.

I have even seen people wearing designer jeans that are many sizes too large for them. Now what, I ask you, is the point of that? The whole thing with designer jeans is that they are supposed to be custom tailored to fit you as well as possible. If you are just wearing them as baggy jeans, all you are doing is wasting your money. After all, if you want jeans that don’t fit you right and hang down around your ankles, you can get any cheap pair of jeans you want as long as it is huge.

I thought baggy jeans would go the way of Hammer pants in a few years, but I guess I was wrong. They seemed like such a silly idea that I could not imagine people wearing them for a long time. I thought the teenagers who wore baggy jeans today would soon laugh at themselves and wonder how they could’ve gotten into a style that was so ridiculous. I guess that is how it is to be that age, though. Teens will do anything to fit in.
