you know the economy sucks when...

...I went to express this morning to look for some work clothes.  I found cute capris that fit really well, so I brought two pairs to the register.  the solid capris were 50% off, but the other pair was a plaid and in the B1G1 1/2 off.  the total was like $90, so I said - forget it, I don't want them that badly, and was about to walk away.  the manager then said, I can give you $30 off.

score. Yes

    STFU.  you'd wear capris too if it was 125 degrees out.  it's these, they aren't that bad.  and they make me look super skinny.

  • yay for the awesome discount!

    i <3 dark, solid capris for work.  well when i worked anyway.  and if the cut and length were right on me.  my office was casual, but jeans every day wasn't good, so the capris were a good, more casual alternative to dress pants.

     

  • i just can't do capris, dude.  but i guess it's because they make me look short and stumpy.

    wait.  i AM short and stumpy.

    dude, i'm shorter and stumpier than you.  i think my inseam is like 26 or 27 inches.  even short/ankle pants have to be hemmed for me. :(.  you just gotta find the right pair.  i haven't found a good pair in over 5 years.  

  • being exceptionally low on wardrobe (and funds) right now, you guys are making me add express to my list when i go to the mall later today.

  • ok, but really - the pants are cute, yes?  maybe I need to take a picture, you guys are making me question my purchase.

  • can you bless with good shopping deal dust since i defended the cause of the capris on shorties?

    not that i'm going shopping anytime soon.  but still.

  • hey, quit yer whining.  i gave you the "atta girl" on the score!

  • Yes to great deal!

    Yes to capris!

  • I like Capris. I can't wear them though- because my legs are so short they just look like high water pants on me. Wah Wah.

    (unless I get them tailored of course- but I'm too lazy- and cheap to do that.)

  • Not a capris fan.  Not good on the short and chubby.

    But yay for not paying full price.
