Selena Gomez (AKA the better half of pop star Justin Bieber) had a thing or two to say about shopping for jeans (and we’re sure some of your can sympathize): “I have to be in the mood to go shopping. I can’t stand shopping for jeans—I hate having to try them on. But I can shop for shoes for days.”
… Sometimes we’re right there with ya, Selena.

Selena Gomez, the “Monte Carlo” cutie, looked stylish in a black ensemble with super straight locks as she made her way through the crowd leaving the Metropolitan in London (all the while chatting on her cell phone). Her bottoms of choice? 7 For All Mankind The Skinny Cargo Pants. She paired them with an AllSaints tank top, Sam Edelman boots, and a MCM “Visitos” medium bowling bag (big thanks to Justin Beiber for that hefty purchase, eh Selena?). Selena may still be a little lady, but her wardrobe is getting more and more grown up.
