This weekend was a great weekend for shopping. With my birthday money burning a hole in my pocket, I set off in search of some new items for my wardrobe overhaul. A new pair (or two) of jeans was definitely on the top of my list.
I checked one of the TJ Maxx’s near me that usually has a decent selection of designer jeans for a deep discount (if you are from Rhody, it’s the TJ Maxx on Bald Hill Road). After rifling through the racks, I picked up about six pairs to try on—but I was unsuccessful. I did find a great Earl Jeans denim jacket though!
Stop number two was a consignment store in East Greenwich- Karma Couture. I had consigned a bunch of hand bags through them about a year ago, but had never bought anything. Fast forward to this past weekend—when I scored not one, but two pairs of fabulous jeans.
I found a pair of Joe’s Jeans that I am in love with—dark wash, unlike the other pair I own. For any ladies out there that like a little bit of a higher rise in your jeans, Joe’s are fabulous. I don’t need my jeans falling down when I bend over to pick up the kids! 
The other pair I found were a pair of butter yellow Rag & Bone skinny jeans. I know that colored denim is big this spring, but I just can’t rock a pair of neon yellow jeans. These are a nice yellow, not too loud.
Both pairs of jeans were about two-thirds of what I would have paid for just one pair brand new. I like Karma Couture, because the woman who owns it is VERY selective about what she takes in for merchandise. Everything is in excellent condition.
Did anyone else do any shopping this past weekend?
If you haven’t yet, don’t forget to enter to win a case of Chobani HERE!
those are both very nice looking, I love finding a good deal!
I love when you can consign and use it to shop later! Great finds and I bet they will look great on you!
Love the yellow jeans! I have been wanting to go shopping for a while, and I REALLY need to (like REALLY – None of my clothes fit right!).
I want some colored jeans too, they’re so fun!
You should check out Karma Couture Samantha! Field trip? 😉
YES! Definitely!
Yay for a successful shopping trip! Kid-free shopping is such a treat. I love consignment shopping, too. The yellow jeans are so fun!
Those look great! And both good deals, too – awesome! Kid-free shopping is the best!
Sounds like you had a good shopping trip. I LOVE Joe’s Jeans. They fit great and you’re right – the higher rise waist makes such a big difference when you constantly bending over and picking up kids. The yellow jeans look so fun. I did a little shopping too this weekend and picked up a pair of green jeans. I’m kind of in love with them!
I hate jeans shopping but Joe’s Jeans sounds like something I may like. Going to look for them!
