So I was on AOL Black Voices and stumbled across an article about a new brand of Oprah certified jeans called CJ by Cookie Johnson:
The brand, described as, “The perfect jeans for real women with real booties,” was created in collaboration between Magic Johnson’s wife, Cookie, and Michael Glasser, founder of Seven For All Mankind, Citizens of Humanity, and Rich & Skinny. Ranging in price from $140-$200, the jeans have lots of fabulous stretch, and go from a size 2-18.
The comments on the post exploded, as most women said that $140+ was way too much to spend on jeans. They maintained that you could get the curvy denim look for less with more affordable PZI’s. It made me think: what kind of jeans do you guys prefer?
I’ll admit, I was a slave to Seven for all Mankind for a long time–I loved their cool whiskered materials and ample stretch! But as I threw out my favorite pair most recently thanks to a completely rubbed away thigh area, I had to reconsider those $150 + expenditures. I just bought a pair of Hudson jeans, but they’re pretty pricey too…my little sister swears by Forever 21 denim, but I’m not sure.
What works for you?
