Kurt by Rock and Republic, $255I've never paid over 75$ for a pair of pants (among them formal black dress pants), so it pains me when I see 300$ pairs of jeans on the market and women who buy them. However, I've never personally tried on such pants, so I really can't judge these women. Or the pants. But, it still pains me.
Anyways, I got an email from Over the Rainbow and they are having a 30% off Spring/Summer sale. And I noticed that the brands Fidelity and Rock & Republic were featured in the email as brands on "sale". This is definitely interesting. Oooo, $300 to $200. Wheeeee!
One of these days, I'm going to try on a pair of these pants and see what the whole big deal is. I like the "Kurt" ones by Rock and Republic from just looking at it on the website. No idea how it would fit my ass though. It better have a lot of stretch the way I'm eating and not exercising these days (I'm a walker, not a sweat-er).
Will report back soon. Too bad I don't have a budget for this site where I get money from others to pay for Ridiculously Overpriced Pants. Any takers? No... I didn't think so. I know my readers aren't knucklehead idiots.
Too bad Rock and Republic is The Cheese though. They name all their jeans after selected musicians in rock and roll. I think that's even more cheesy than one of the lines of the lululemon manifesto mentioned in yesterday's post about watching a plant grow so you can be a better person blah, blah, blah. Can you imagine Kurt Cobain groaning in his grave after hearing he now has a pair of pants named after him? Because he totally is. And I can't say I blame him. But hey, I guess it's a sign of respect and a pair of pants is still better than say, a piece of cloth that is used to mop off grime from kitchen counters all over the world (i.e. a Terry cloth). Or being called Cherry Chan from a nurse or Mr. Chan from a librarian. I digress.
