Can You Believe These Jeans Are Almost $10,000!
Wednesday January 23, 2008
We all know the prices for so-called 'designer denim' have been skyrocketing over the past few seasons, but this takes the cake: Earnest Sewn has teamed up with luxe jewelry brand Van Cleef & Arpels to create some limited-edition, outta-this-world expensive jeans. Van Cleef is the bauble company best known for its clover-shaped Alhambra necklaces (Paris Hilton and Reese Witherspoon wear theirs all over town), and the two styles of jeans in this collaboration are adorned with removable gold chains that can be worn around the neck or doubled up as a bracelet. Each pair will be numbered, signed, and sold at snooty auction house Christie's. The going price? A cool $9,700! Personally, I would rather have a car.

that’s ridiculous. they really aren’t even that cute. if you did want to do something like that, how hard would it be to DIY? i mean, seriously.
I wouldn’t pay $60 for them.
should we encourage eating disorders like anorexia by constantly promoting those sickening images of scarcely there people on t.v. as we do? Everyone needs clothes moron! In your case you should spend less time browsing the net and more time with your face securely inserted into a dictionary!
I agree with marie, big people have a hard time finding clothes, we want to look pretty too!
you shouldn’t only be allowed to wear beautiful clothing if your a size two! i wear size 14/16 but i am 5′11, my family is also very curvaceous and my doctor even said it would be extremely hard for me to get below a size 9 or ten. providing clothes for overweight people doesn’t promote ‘overweightness’ (as you say), it promotes confidence, because its hard to exercise and work toward something if you think you are ugly or dont have the confidence to work toward a smaller size. anorexia isn’t pretty either- your still ugly on the inside.
This site is a great idea! for the people who think it is not they are narrow minded. I am a plus size teenager and people like you make it hard for everyone else. Some people are plus size because of other health reasons. I hope you can sleep at night knowing that you are the reason why so many people have eating disorders and image problems. So what if I rather eat a cookie than, eat a salad.
yeh uhhh jaynie no one encourages over weightness sweetheart but yu dont expect bigger ppl to walk around looking a mess we need good looking clothes just like any other person and it is not the same case for everyone being overweight so think before yu speak
yea i agree how can you make an ignorant comment like that and dont know how to spell.WOW, anyway you can be full figured and still be healthy the only reason they say your overweight is because you dont fit a scale that says you should be a certain weight at a certain height. Now i dont agree with this scale because you dont have to be skinny to be considered healthy…..but anyway im a full figure woman and proud of it i dont have to live up to someone elses standards in order to be proud on myself i dont need a scale made up by someone that believes you should be a certain weight because im happy being the size that iam and wearin the clothes that brings out the curves god bless me with
Honestly! Do you want me to go naked? I bet you’d have some kind of issue with that as well… having to look at my “overweightness” in the nude! Pull your tiny head out of your skinny arse and look around you!
Yes, the more plus size teen fashion options available, the better a plus size teen feels about themselves, the easier it is to lose weight! Self esteem is a huge issue for teens,especially plus size teens and great styles and fashion are a must for feeling good about yourself. Plus, plus size teens deserve good fashion, just like everyone else! And thankfully the fashion designers and retailers now realize there is a major market for Size 12 and up clothing.
