American Apparel (April 2006 - March 2010)

I agree, I'm also 5'3 and I have the +1 and I think it's just right for an oversized shirt. I can almost wear it as a mini dress though:

^ yea, my +1 shrunk over time (it's been a year)... and i air dry it all the time!!! but my +2 black sexuali tank won't shrink....

 

[jaydotcee]

does anyone have any pictures of them wearing either the sexuali tank/tee or the dolman tops? I would love to see how it fits on people and how you guys pair them!

 

[Velony]

I posted a pic of me wearing it in the WAYWT thread but that was a while ago. You can have a look at my blog. The first pic is of me wearing it. I tucked it into my skirt though so you can basically only see half of it.

DAMN i forgot to bid.. it was on ebay for 99p!

 

[GoofyTampico]

wow you guys got great deals on the flea market!
I have lots of pieces of American Apparel, and I find some are OK and others have poor quality. Still love everything though..

I want one of their florescent bikinis... I heard the poppy color shows all your goodies though... Does anyone have it or the neon yellow one?

I haven't made any purchases from AA in ages. But I'm thinking about picking up these items. I have the double u neck dress in short sleeve and I love it. So I was really excited to see that they came out with a long sleeve version. The leggings are just to replace the ones I already own. I found a hole in the crotch in my one pair the other day . They lasted me 2 years though (which I think is pretty impressive). And I'm a huge fan of the sexuali line so I'm thinking of picking up the tank top and t-shirt in black and possibly taupe as well.

^ all very good staples!

I adore AA but lately all of my t-shirts from there have gone crappy, after only 3-ish washes. D: So so sad.

Anyone else have this issue? They start to get shrunk/misshapen & the color fades.

But I lovelovelove their dresses. That's one thing that I'm very happy from there.

I really want one of the long sleeve U-neck dresses, I just wish they were longer. I got one of the letter t-shirts solely because it was really cute and now I'm at loss for what to wear with it.

I'm kind of concerned with the toddler lame' leggings. Just when would a two year old have an occasion to wear such a thing?

 

[Mindbear]

The promo for AA is dodgy enough, what with their models looking pretty underaged a lot of the time. Toddlers in wet look leggings? Hmmm....bit close to the mark for me.

oh i like those last ones posted!!i havent been in AA for a long time...everything i got from there is so cozy..i am always wearing an AA top whenever im not feeling too well and it feels like i am in my pjs lol..

me too! that's why I try not to wear my tee's too often and try not to wash them to often. and when I do, I do it by hand. handwash, baby.

 

[scara]

wow. 2 weeks gone by and nobody posted here.

ok, anyway: i've got a story to share:
i wanted to get the cycling shorts at my local store. they didn't have it in stock and so they let me oder it from the onlinestore... the shorts will be send to my home, and i don't have to pay any shipping costs! brilliant, isn't it.

 

[ElleLesley]

^ Lucky thing, that's possibly the most nicest AA story experience I've heard in a long while I hate paying extra for shipping coasts, I always feel a bit of guilt paying extra for a basic tee or top.

And IA with Party_Vixen with the double u-neck dress, it's probably one of my favorite items from them though I've never actually tried it on. But is it true to size? I'm quite short so in most cases I don't worry about how short it may be but the sizing for a few things can be ridiculous from time to time.

 

[emailme.]

remember when they had a 'traveling blazer' on the coming soon page last fall? whatever happened to it?

....

 

[Party_Vixen]

ElleLesley I find the double U neck dress to be true to size. If you have an AA store near you I'd suggest checking it out .

I bought theses in dark purple a couple of weeks ago, but I still haven't worn them outdoors because the weather has been crap and I certainly can not wear them to work.

What kind of shoes should I wear with them? I was thinking of wearing them with the teal polka dot sash and a white wifebeater...
