My BFs do that too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1525381 Wed, 22 Jul 2015 23:41:44 +0000 Joyce B 1525381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, they are big on the waist.<br /> Angie, do you think the whiskering/ smile-like lines on the sides below the tush ruins the look? Maybe the cut is not curvy enough for me? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1525375 Wed, 22 Jul 2015 23:35:52 +0000 Angie 1525375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Joyce. I like the larger size 27. Do they feel too big?&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1525373 Wed, 22 Jul 2015 23:34:22 +0000 Joyce B 1525373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It took me a little bit but I added new picts of the larger size as per AG's and Aida's request. I got motivated after seeing how great they look on Rachy. Both sizes kind of look the same on me and to me, I think.<br /> I hope I am not driving anyone nuts with my pictures.<br /> Please let me know what you think.<br /> The plaid top in the original pictures is also new, I kind of like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523800 Mon, 20 Jul 2015 22:03:35 +0000 Aida 1523800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Waiting on the updated photos of the larger size. In the meantime, just wanted to say that my torn jeans (which are QUITE torn) have done fine in the wash. I turn them inside out and use the "hand wash" setting, then hang them up to air dry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523620 Mon, 20 Jul 2015 17:17:28 +0000 Joyce B 1523620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Cheryl!</p> <p>Sure, AG. It may take a little bit but I will add a (hopefully) better pict in the large size, too. BTW, the truffle is long gone, it was worth every calorie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523492 Mon, 20 Jul 2015 14:29:52 +0000 catgirl 1523492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can we see better pics of the larger size?&nbsp; Sorry to put you through paces but I'd like to compare... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523433 Mon, 20 Jul 2015 11:51:39 +0000 dakotacheryl 1523433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the fit of the smaller size better Joyce...you look really cute in these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523089 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 20:21:01 +0000 Joyce B 1523089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, thanks, Angie.<br /> I think it was Anna who bought some very nice distressed designer jeans and the tears fell apart in the laundry. Maybe that's the nature of the beast with distressed garments.<br /> If it bothers me enough I can patch up a pair of non-distressed jeans and go with those.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523084 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 20:17:11 +0000 Angie 1523084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't heard that from my clients and friends yet, Joyce. Seems to be &nbsp;okay. I can't offer personal feedback because I don't have torn jeans.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523072 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 19:53:24 +0000 Joyce B 1523072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Laura and AG. I added picts 7 &amp; 8 from a different angle and in the smaller size to compare. If you have the time and the inclination, please say if you still think the fit is bad.</p> <p>Thanks, Angie, and thanks for the suggestion for the Birthday hat, this one is dressier than my other hats.<br /> Yes, number 3 is in the larger size.<br /> Do distressed jeans fall apart in the washing mashine? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523065 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 19:37:01 +0000 Angie 1523065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way #3 fit, Joyce. Is that the larger size? (I KNOW. We used to throw away jeans that looked like this - and now they are fashion. How hectic is that?).&nbsp;</p> <p>I think these have plenty of longevity. The patched jeans look is fringe - has been for four years - so you're okay.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the new hat. *smiling* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523057 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 19:22:10 +0000 catgirl 1523057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep the truffle!</p> <p>I like the pants but I'm not sure of the fit... I'm on my phone. Will look on my computer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523033 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 18:20:36 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1523033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just MO, but I don't think the fit is good enough around the pelvis. There's the 'smile' lines at the bottom of the butt and some pulling at the crotch in front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-nas-tb-distressed-jeans-durability#post-1523002 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 17:16:16 +0000 Joyce B 1523002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got some of my NAS orders, these are the TB BF distressed jeans and plaid top.<br /> The first set is with the jeans in the smaller size and the second set is one size up.<br /> I have never bought distressed anything but I thought these were nice and the sale price was OK so I gave them a try.<br /> The angle of the photos is a bit off, but you can see some ? saddling at the sides under my butt, maybe they could use a curvier cut for the derrière...<br /> How durable or not durable are these distressed jeans?<br /> If I keep them, will the larger size be more durable?<br /> Do you think the wrinkling at the sides below the tush are a deal breaker?<br /> They are comfortable otherwise. My only doubt is if I am wasting my money on something that will not last.<br /> Back in the day, I used to throw out my jeans when they looked this way! It is all a matter of perspective, right?<br /> Of course it's not like they will be the only jeans I will wear, I have so many!<br /> If I keep them I will reinforce the tears with patches in the wrong side of the garment.<br /> If you think they look bad or are a bad idea for me, please say so.<br /> I am wearing the hat that Angie suggested for my BD.<br /> Number 8 is not NAS but is the best truffle ever, so I gave it a place in my post. I have no affiliation with them, if I had I would eat them all so that would be bad for business.<br /> Thanks for your input!<br /> ETA: pants in the smaller size, viewed from a different angle.<br /> ETA: as per AG's and Aida's request, I am adding more picts in the size up, numbers 9 and 10. 8 and 9 are the smaller size.<br /> Thanks for looking and I hope I am not driving anyone nuts with all these pictures, they kind of look the same to me. </p>
