$200 jeans

i'm wearing $200 jeans right now. yes, on my butt are $200 jeans, hand distressed, expertly crafted to accentuate my curves, stiched in the well-known pocket style that says to everyone in proximity "HEY YOU-I HAVE $200 JEANS ON!".

before you claim i've lost my mind, i assure you i am too smart to pay retail. still, i paid more than both my "cheap" pairs of jeans combined. (for those of you doing the math, my "cheap" pairs are american eagle).

this is not my first venture into the super premium denim world. i have been selling the designer jeans online for the last few months, and recently expanding to events around san diego. i have been slowly collecting a wardrobe that is worth more than my jeep (ok, well almost). it's bad because i have easy access to the latest styles/brands for wholesale prices. it's too easy to just grab one pair in my size and have it "disappear" into my closet. way too easy.

a couple weeks ago i got hooked on another pair of $200 jeans, wearing them all the frickin time...even when $200 jeans are not really appropriate. it's like i'm saying to the world "i have so much money i can wear my $200 jeans with flip flops and a sweatshirt to walk my dog". this is so far from reality it's not even funny. yet, this is probably the image that is projected. then i get in my hummer after i pass by all the "little people" with my soy mocha half-caf latte in hand.

now why am i wearing such grossly expensive jeans? research. ya, that's my story & i'm sticking to it.

yes, i admit i did this. i think the doggy slobber added a special quality to the jeans.
