You're right, these are TINY--I just had a better look at them, and they are very small. My only teeny tiny friend doesn't really wear jeans, so ebay it is! </p> <p>As a side note, this thrifting find has totally upped the value of the time I spend on YLF in my boyfriend's eyes. He is used to scoffing at me for reading sites like these, but now that it's helped me find something we can sell on ebay, he has stopped laughing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/paige-premium-denim-thrifting-find-what-to-do-with-them#post-178534 Fri, 02 Jul 2010 00:33:56 +0000 Christie 178534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you on the Goodwill prices going up!

Sell them on ebay, or, better yet, give them to a tiny friend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/paige-premium-denim-thrifting-find-what-to-do-with-them#post-178517 Thu, 01 Jul 2010 23:57:42 +0000 Queen Mum 178517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Melissa- a 26 is quite small. I wear a 4 or 6 in jeans, and my "premium size" is 28 or 29. I'd sell them on ebay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/paige-premium-denim-thrifting-find-what-to-do-with-them#post-178512 Thu, 01 Jul 2010 23:47:58 +0000 Melissa 178512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>YLF helped me make a fab thrifting find at Goodwill today! They are these, except in a dark black:<br /> <a href="http://www.paigeusa.com/r/7/pd/p/29255250.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.paigeusa.com/r/7/pd/p/29255250.html</a></p> <p>I was flipping through the jeans halfheartedly, when some brand new-looking black jeans caught my eye. I read the "Paige Premium Denim Label" and thought it sounded sort of familiar. Normally, I'd have passed on these because they aren't my size and Goodwill has recently gone mad and raised their prices on used jeans to $9.99. I wandered around with them for a while, really reluctant to shell out for them, but I finally went for it based on my hazy memory that I'd heard of them.</p> <p>Turns out, I'd heard of the brand because people on YLF seem to like them (thanks, YLF-ers!). So now the question is, what should I do with them? Like I said, they are not my size--they're much too small. Ordinarily, I'd for sure just sell them on ebay--why have clothes that don't fit, right?</p> <p>BUT...should I keep them instead? I totally get that the "dress the body you have" philosophy, and I normally do just that. However, the body I have has been shrinking steadily the last few months and is continuing to do so. I am really unsure where my weight and size will ultimately end up, and that's why there's a small part of me that thinks maybe I should keep the Paige jeans in case they'll fit me when my weight stabilizes. I mean, when would I ever find another pair for $10?</p> <p>What do you think? Should I sell them to make a bit of cash on ebay and worry about finding jeans when my weight has stabilized, or should I hang onto them for possible future use?</p> <p>I'm not familiar with the Paige sizing, but for reference, I started out as a US size 14-16 jean (due to giant thighs--most pants that fit my thighs swim on my waist, which is why I wear so many skirts), and am now somewhere in the 10-12 range. My best guess is that I will be around a 6-8 when I'm done losing weight. These jeans are a Page size 26.</p> <p>What would you do? </p>
