Hudson Jeans Slim Your Thighs

I won a pair of Hudson jeans last year, and I kind of forgot that I owned them until recently. You see, I am a denim junkie and I have an obscene number of jeans. I decided to stop ignoring the bottom shelf of my denim rack and wore all of my "old" jeans this past week. First was Rock and Republic jeans, then my Juicy Couture jeans, and finally my Hudson jeans.

I have no idea why I was so rude to my Hudson jeans because they are fabulous.

There are a few qualities I look for when denim shopping: do they make my butt look awesome? Will they make me look taller? Are they going to slim my thighs? Hudson met all of my requirements, they even got me a few compliments.

Hudson is an Los Angeles-based denim company that is known for its stylish cuts and slimming fits (told ya). Hudson has mastered the worn-in look, which also makes your jeans more comfortable. Hudson's jeans have quite a celebrity following; Jessica Alba, Kate Bosworth, Sienna Miller, and Jessica Simpson.

Looks like I need to stock up on Hudson. Whenever I find a pair of jeans that live up to my standards I tend to hoard them away. I will start with the Glory Basic Boot Jean for a cool $165 at DJPremium.com.

My post is ulitmately not about jeans but I'm responding to the many annoying comments posted on this blog. I just stumbled across it looking for Hudson's.

I bought my first pair of Hudson's two years ago. I wear them often. Even with frequent washing, they still look as new as the day I bought them. Although they only make them in smaller sizes, they prove to be an incredibly flattering fit. To the angry people who are heavier out there...you are just angry with yourself. Do not criticize someone who is a smaller size than you who wants to look slimmer. WE ALL HAVE BODY ISSUES.

As for those of you who like to judge with comments like "I don't know what world you live in to spend that much on jeans, get back to reality"...I have some words for you:

I earn a VERY modest salary as I just graduated college. The only outstanding debt I have is my student loans; I have no credit card debt and my car is paid off, by me and not my parents. I have plenty saved and I'm frugal with most of my spending. I DO live in "reality".

I think the people who are up to their eyeballs in credit card debt are the ones NOT living in reality. If you have that debt, than you are crazier than me. Spending money you don't have at the time by putting it on a credit card just so you can shell out interest over the next few years...only a crazy person would buy things they can't afford. People who live within their means but happen to have means that sometimes allow them to buy $100 jeans are not as crazy as you!

My father always said LIFE IS ABOUT CHOICES. Where you are is because of choices you have made and until you make changes or just accept that you have created your own life...and nothing has just "happened" to you by some sad accord, than you will never be happy and noone can please you.

I choose to sometimes spend a lot on jeans because of the quality and where they are produced. I try to purchase clothing that is American-made. Foreign workers are not only taking jobs away from YOU, they are often times working in oppresive factory conditions. I have done an incredible amount of academic research on this situaion and it's my personal preference to not contribute to such an ugly system bulit on the detriment of human beings.

Wal-Mart should be sued by the American people. Please stop shopping there. Read just one book, not website or blog, but a book about Wal-Mart and their practices. How have you people not considered how their costs are so low? For those of you who are thinking "well maybe we aren't as fortunate to not shop at Wal-Mart", try Target. At least they take care of their employees.

Thanks anonymous - I was thinking the same things reading through these comments. I just bought Hudson Jeans and stumbled upon this while trying to find out what they retail for at various stores. I paid $155 for mine and don't regret it in the least. I have the size 28 (so those of you who said they only make up to 26 didn't look hard enough). The jeans are also made in size 30 and 32.

They ARE incredibly slimming, make your legs look long and fit so well, I would buy another pair tomorrow. As with Anonymous, I do live in the real world - also with NO debt. That's right, I have no credit card debt. If I happen to have saved enough money to buy some clothes and decide I want to spend it on a nice pair of jeans that will last me a long time, I think that's my choice and not something that should cause others to scoff.

I agree with the poster who said, just because you are content with your $20 jeans that doesn't mean you should judge people who happen to like the comfort and quality of a more expensive pair.

My husband and I have lost a combined 42 pounds since Jan. We started drinking this fruit juice called Monavie. It is made up of 19 fruits including the acai berry. We began to have more energy and our appetites were curbed. We drink 2oz in the morning and 2 oz at night. We were so excited we now have our whole family drinking it and each one has found benefits in the juice! Learn more: http://www.mymonavie.com/richardfamily

I hope that isn't a picture of you, because the butt in that picture looks flat as a pancake! EWWWW

# 1 your Monavie was last years Amway.. We tried it it did Nothing, and it is expensive!!

Linda 9-06-2007 @ 8:46AM

$165 for jeans?? Not all of us have that kind of money to throw around. Give me a good pair of Lee Jeans for $40.

stella 9-06-2007 @ 8:53AM

$165 for a pair of jeans..your crazy...I rather buy macys brand Style&Co for $24.98 with a little lyra..and they're a GREAT FIT

Kimberly 9-06-2007 @ 9:03AM

I agree about Monavie, did absolutely NOTHING but drain the wallet. All hype, no help. Also, $165.00 for jeans? I can clothe my 3 kids with that money, I am with #4 give me a good pair of Lee's!

maggie 9-06-2007 @ 9:12AM

Why why why do all these manufacturers think that Lycra/spandex help the fit of jeans??????? Can't find a decent pair of jeans without it now days. Give me a mid rise, bootcut anyday. Not everyone can wear the low rise, exp with lycra. All the lycra does is make the back come down so low it is obscene when you bend over.

Joy 9-06-2007 @ 9:18AM

My thinking is that an advertising apprentice for HUDSON has written that first item and it will make the stock rise. Shame on those of you that have so much money and spend it on such things. I agree with #4 (and 5) also. If I stayed the same shape year after year, I still would not invest over $50 for jeans, and that would be on the reduced rack for half of that.

OH, REALLY! SLIMS THE THIGHS?

GO TO WAL-MART ONE OF THESE DAYS AND LOITER FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES AROUND THE PLUS-SIZE (FAT BROAD) DEPARTMENT. STANDING THERE WITH A CLICKER-COUNTER SEE HOW MANY ETHIOPIAN-AMERICAN LARD ASSES STROLL IN LOOKING FOR JEANS THAT'LL DRAW IN THOSE TWO ENORMOUS PROTUBERENCE THEY HAVE SUSPENDED ON THEIR BACKSIDE. IF/WHEN ONE WALKS INTO AN OVERCROWDED INNER-CITY BASSABAW SPORTS BAR AT ELEVEN IN THE MORNING (CUZ' EVERYBODY'S OUT OF WORK OR CALLED OFF SICK), TYRELL AND HIS BUDDY DEMETRIUS WILL HAVE A SPACIOUS SURFACE TO SET DOWN THEIR BEER MUGS!

Hudson jeans might make THAT body look slimmer, not necessarily MY body, $165 or not... 8-/

Nice plug #1 -- I didn't think this was a forum for advertising for the "Richard Family"... You wanna lose weight?? eat healthy, moderate proportions, and get your butt in gear and exerise! There are NO magic pills or juices, I hate to break it to ya...

I went to the website to look at these jeans well the largest size they had was 26x34. Do you really need to worry about your butt at that size! Lets put some sizes out there for those of us who really need help!!!

Ellie 9-06-2007 @ 11:35AM

Pulllleeeze. We non-celebrities don't pay $165 for jeans and if the Richards' family thinks they can push the Monavie on this forum to be able to afford them themselves, forgeddaboutit.

I work in a shop and sell a lot of JEANS. WE started last year with NOT MY DAUGHTERS JEANS and now all fo the manufactures are putting sapndex in their Jeans. First you have to tell the customer to go down a size because they will grow on you and will be to big after wearing them. Most of the older woman did not like them because it drew their butt in and after a certain age you do not have a butt.T he younger person liked them a little bit because they could wear them tighter then what they could buy before. I would like to see them as a past thing. New Smyrna Beach, Fl

two advertisements..dang..why do I read these things..promise myself..never again

A sad world we live in when $165 for a pair of jeans is reasonable to some people. Most of the working people live on less than $30,000 per year and $165 is 2 weeks worth of groceries.

These people should live in the real world for awhile!!

Jill 9-06-2007 @ 12:16PM

How can you have an obscene number of jeans but wear them all in a week?

Sarah 9-06-2007 @ 1:58PM

Linda, you pay $40 for a pair of Lee jeans? That's outrageous!!! You are getting ripped off! Try Wal-Mart for Lee Jeans, or Target for Levi's. I buy Levi's at Target for $24.99 or less. Even better, shop the outlet malls, where you can buy J-Crew jeans for the same price. J-Crew jeans are always flattering... slimming, and lengthening... which is great for those of us who are short with curvy hips!

My friends keep raving about 7 jeans... I guess I'll have to try some on, though I won't spend more than $50 or $60 on a pair of jeans.
