I stopped by Loft today to make a return (a cardi I got in two sizes because I couldn't decide which was better), and tried on some modern skinny jeans on sale for $29.99, plus 40% off. http://www.anntaylorloft.com/c.....pe=Regular

They fit perfectly and I was excited, and then I found the stitching had ripped out along the seam by one of the knees. On the one hand this concerned me about the quality of the sewing, on the other hand it's a SUPER easy fix. So I asked the manager, and she sold me the jeans for $14.88, plus 40% off! Woo!

I think my sewing machine may be the best fashion investment I've ever made...
