Filed under: Jeans, Flatter Your Figure, Style Tip of the Day

Fergie, Miley CyrusThe trick to looking fabulous in denim is the perfect fit. But, who has the time to try on 100 pairs of jeans, only to find the waist gaps on each or they are all too long, too short ... or whatever your problem may be. And customized denim? Pff ... we would make the time but who has the money? Actually, you do! (If you shop our suggested sites anyway.)

eBay WTF Friday Five

Filed under: Clothing

Third grade teacher gone badThis week, let's take a moment to celebrate the delightfully heinous crimes against denim witnessed on eBay. We've already brought you:

Bad Jean Jacket #1
Bad Jean Jacket #2
& Bad Jean Jacket #3

Here are #4-8, starting with this one.

A patch on your jean jacket is sort of sweet, in an "I was once a girl/boy scout and I dig patches" kind of way. This many patches? Batdung crazy.

This jacket includes patches such as:

Madrid
American Indian guy
American Indian guy #2
Ladybug
Bear with hat on
Giraffe
Elephant
Rag doll
Rainbow
French weathervane
Skull

WTF? See the gallery for more eBay denim disasters.

eBay WTF of the Day: Bad jean jacket #3

Filed under: Clothing

Ach! Too! Busy! Cripes! Eyes! Burning!

Be careful with denim, people. This is an example of where a simple crime against denim could lead to total outfit mayhem. We don't care what you're wearing under that jacket; we take one look at it and we're having a seizure on the floor.

This jean jacket from Josephs-colours-sells on eBay is a Coldwater Creek from the underacknowledged realm of "trying to look like your mother and doing it wrong."

eBay WTF of the Day: Bad jean jacket #2

Filed under: Clothing

WTF? This is so obviously wrong.

It's like this. The jacket was too long so they decided to cut it. Then, while they got ready to cut it, they had seven martinis and decided it would be really funny if they just cut some of it off. We can just see this being a good idea at like, 3am:

"Yeah, you know...like coattails...but on the sides...of this denim jacket...with three quarter sleeves and an awkward, sideways belly-flap."

But that idea should have been trumped in the morning.

Lacy ass jeans

Filed under: Holiday Style, Clothing

This position isn't uncomfortable at all!Ah, the fall wedding season. If you're getting married, you probably have a ton of wedding-related events to attend. As it gets a little chilly, you kinda start to wish you could just wear your blue jeans.

Enter a totally ridiculous solution: Wedding Belle Blues. Here you can find several different styles of jeans adorned with lace and ribbons to make them...bridely.

This may seem to be a crime against denim, but weddings are somewhat costume-y events. You might never, never wear those jeans again (oh god please don't), but they are, in fact, appropriate just this once.

So, have a look at the gallery below with a sense of drama and humor, and enjoy the lacy ass jeans.

Totally unjustifiable.
It must be fall. Get out your bad jean jackets.

Here, on sale from Cerry5354, we have a green satin disaster. This is like a castoff from that scene in Return to Oz when Dorothy had to touch everything that was green to bring Oz back to life or something, I don't know, I was only half watching by that point because that Rock dude really freaked my shiz out. And the flying moose box. WTF, moose box? Anyway, all the stuff that was green in that scene was like, really awkwardly and sort of aggressively green. Like this jacket.

Also, can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that Dorothy was played by Fairuza Balk? Thanks.
