Can this be right? I just bought three pair of pants for $150, including shipping, at J. Crew. I own the Teddie already in black, navy and "brandy", so I've also tried them in white (returnable, on sale for $18).

I was hankering for some culotte-like denim (my life is so casual, I need to work on my denim capsule) and found this pair of high-waist wideish leg cropped jeans with a uniform medium blue wash and clean-front hip pockets. fingers crossed they are flattering; it all depends on how roomy the tushy is. On sale for about $100.

And last, as a whim, these high-waisted flared crops in black. Because they were also only $17 and as I mentioned, i am trying to build my denim capsule. They aren't final sale so if they are awful or do not fit I can return them to the store.

Sorry to be so obsessed with prices, but I'm really not supposed to be shopping at all, so I feel I can only purchase when the item is good and the price is an absolute steal.
