Sass & Bide, Lee, Vicious

7. Do you or would you buy two of the same jeans if you liked them very much?
Haven't done it yet but that's because I haven't found my perfect pair yet. A couple are close, but not close enough to warrant two pairs. If I did though I would buy two in different colours.

8. What is the longest you have owned and worn the same pair of jeans?
The 2 pairs of jeans I actually wear now are both bought in the last 6 months. In the past I'd switch jeans every couple of years. More of a change of style / taste than anything else.

9. How long will you go before you wash a pair of jeans?
Since I don't wear my jeans very much I don't wash them very often. This also helps them to retain their shape, stretch and colour.

10. Will you try on your jeans before you buy them?
Always! It's all about the fit, I wouldn't buy a pair of jeans without trying them on first so that rules out internet shopping.

About 1 or 2 in winter and virtually 0 in summer. I'm more of a skirt and stockings girl.

Flairs, high waisted, and jeans with so many holes in them you might as well not wear any.

13. What would you say will be the next "it" silhouette/type of jeans?
I hope straight leg is here to stay.

14. From where do you primarily purchase your jeans?
Boutiques or sales.

15. Do you remember your very first pair of jeans?
I had a pair of little denim shorts in primary school, as for jeans I think it was around that time as well, but somehow less memorable.

16. What do you do with your jeans after they don't fit or you dont like them anymore?
I've cut a couple and resewed then into skirts... I don't actually wear them though, oh well the process of fun.

17. Do you stick to true blue jeans or do you mix it up with colored denim?
I like grey / dark blue denim. I wanted a pair of bright red skinny leg jeans last year but thankfully didn't impulse buy any!

18. Used/pre worn (by someone else) jeans, yay or nay?
I don't personally do it, but if I found a great pair of vintage jeans in good condition then I don't see why not.

19. Will you hem your jeans yourself, usually leave it alone, or take them to a professional to get them hemmed?
I leave them alone - fold them in if I have to.

20. Could you see yourself not wearing jeans again ever if you had to?
Actually, I can easily see that happening. I already wear skirts more than I do jeans, and I can see myself wearing tailored pants more instead of jeans.

[RubyJewelStone]

Here you go, from the perspective of a broke teen...

1. Are you male or female.
Femme Fatale

2. How many jeans do you own?
About Eight

3. Of those, how many do you actually wear?
About Four or Five

4. What is the most you have spent on jeans, How much are you usually willing to spend?
Most I've spent? I have no clue, I don't spend my own money after all. But I suppose the most I would be willing to spend would be $50 since I'm more of a sale junkie.

5. What is your favorite style at the moment?
Dark Denim Skinnies or Straight Legs

6. What are your top/favorite 3 denim brands?
I don't really do brands on jeans, I just go by what looks right.

7. Do you or would you buy two of the same jeans if you liked them very much?
Yes, if I like them that much, then I probably need a second pair when I wear out the first. But I wouldn't buy them both at the same time, if that's what you mean. Perhaps, at least a week later.

8. What is the longest you have owned and worn the same pair of jeans?
Two to Three Years

9. How long will you go before you wash a pair of jeans?
I don't get an opportunity to wear my own clothes that often since I go to a uniformed private school, so it may be a week in the summer and months during school.

10. Will you try on your jeans before you buy them?
I have to. Nothing likes to fit my butt or short legs, so I need to see how much damage control I have to do after I buy them.

11. Out of the week, how many of those days are spent wearing jeans now?
Perhaps three on a week when I'm out a lot.

12. Is there a particular style or type of jean that you hate the most and wish would disappear off the face of the earth?
"Mom" jeans. You know! The ones with the badly done baggy high waist, saggy butt, and unshapely legs.

13. What would you say will be the next "it" silhouette/type of jeans?
I think the skinnies vs. boot cut vs. flare battle will carry on for a while

14. From where do you primarily purchase your jeans?
The Mall or at least a shopping plaza. If I could find a decent pair at my crappy thrift store, I would buy them there too.

15. Do you remember your very first pair of jeans?
I think so. They had absolutely no style whatsover. There were that horrid lifeless plain lightish blue, and I only wore them when I wanted to protect my legs outside. I was more of a skirt girl at the time. I was in kindergarten.

16. What do you do with your jeans after they don't fit or you don't like them anymore?
Donate if they are still good. Use as scrap fabric to experiment on if they were crappy to begin with.

17. Do you stick to true blue jeans or do you mix it up with colored denim?
Mix it up! I love white and black as well. And other colors could work if executed properly and not just used to make one walking blob of some over matched color.

18. Used/pre worn (by someone else) jeans, yay or nay?
Yay. As long as they're good and clean and don't look like crap. After all, why not? I'm a jobless teen. I'm lucky to have any.

19. Will you hem your jeans yourself, usually leave it alone, or take them to a professional to get them hemmed?
If I lived on my own, I would do it on my own, but my mom sews for a living, so I bug her to do them. I just wish she wasn't so busy so I could get her to make me some outfits!

20. Could you see yourself not wearing jeans again ever if you had to?
I suppose. I want to get more into the dress and skirt thing anyway. In my opinion, jeans have turned into a way to hide the fact that you're too lazy to find a bottom that goes with what you're wearing. How else do you hide the fact that blue is suddenly okay with everything, but if you wear blue pants that AREN'T denim, then people wonder what's wrong with you.
