Denim Deals: The Warehouse Sale Pop-Up Outlet Near You

The Warehouse Store Pop-Up Outlet at The Block at Orange.

The Warehouse Store Pop-Up Outlet at The Block at Orange.



Have you noticed all the vacancies at your local mall?  Obviously, retail hasn’t completely rebounded from the slow economy, but that doesn’t slow down the folks at The Warehouse Sale!  Look for TWS’s Pop-up Outlet Stores across the country. The Smarty Pants at TWS are filling a void: they get on a short-term lease at your local mall, they bring business to your area, you save money, the denim brands get Pop-up store benefits — it’s a win-win!

I say, thank god!  Do you really want to drive out to the convention center anyways and pay, like, $12 for parking when you’re trying to actually save money on your designer jeans?  I thought so.

Denim Deals NYC: Rag & Bone Sample Sale (6/24)

Why bother going to sleep tonight.  If you even want to stand a chance at scoring anything decent in your size, you may as well drag yourself out of bed and head on over now with a liter of coffee (or some other legal stimulant) and stake your place in line.  As of this morning, I read there will be some heavenly steals on some Rag & Bone jeans for men and women.

Denim Deals L.A.: Paige Premium Denim/Michael Stars Sample Sale (6/12)

paige-premium-denim-x-michael-stars-sample-sale-june-2010

This is exciting.  Paige Premium Denim is throwing a joint sample sale with a Michael Stars, a quintessential SoCal tee shirt brand that has grown to be much more.  I hope they have plenty of Shine tops and jeans-friendly tanks for wear-it-now instant gratification.  Otherwise, the $40 Paige Premium jeans deal for men and women sounds mighty good.

Denim Deals: J Brand Leggings On Sale Tomorrow (3/16)

The Privé J Brand Legging Sale

The Privé J Brand Legging Sale.



I was just thinking that I don’t have enough J Brand Jeans in my denim collection.  There’s something about those jeans that can make a girl feel slinky and ready to rock the imaginary runways around town.  They make me feel, like, six inches taller.  Then, I read that the J Brand leggings are going on sale tomorrow, online at The Privé.  I’ve been getting their emails for a long time now, but I hadn’t been able to take advantage of their NYC sample sales and occasional online sales.  Now that the online site is relaunching, I am so looking forward to scoring me some J Brands.

Sale begins Tuesday, March 16 (11 AM EST). Sign up today!

Denim Desires: Karl Grey Jean by Twenty8twelve

twenty8twelve Karl Jean Grey
Once sought out only for fall, gray jeans are back come spring.  Call them taupe, call them stone.  It’s pretty much the same thing, but in varying shades with hints of purple or even pink.  You may think the shade is the dull, wallflower cousin of black, but doesn’t it match with, like, everything, too?   Twenty8twelve’s Karl Grey Jean is a nice addition to your spring fling with grays, and it’s on sale at SWIRL.   It makes a fantastic complement to all the nudes and pastels you’ll be sporting for all those tea parties, strolls in the botanical gardens or Red Carpet walks.  After all, everyone wears blue or black jeans, right?  Make your statement.  Stand out in gray.
