How Many Jeans is Enough?

November 3, 2009 at 8:49 pm · Filed under Practically Speaking, Random, mommy questions

I had the distinct privilege on Sunday of buying new jeans in a smaller size! HOORAY! In fact, I took all my jeans that are too big out of my closet today so I won’t be tempted to wear them. (Because they seriously fall off me…YAY!)

As I was pulling out the jeans I realized I now have 3 pairs of jeans that fit me. And really, I only like 2 of the three.  Considering that I took about 6 pairs out and put them away, this didn’t seem like very many jeans!

So my question is, how many pairs of jeans do you have? (And this means that you wear them…not that they just live in the abyss of your closet!)

i currently have 6 pairs of jeans that i wear regularly (2 pr of old navy ones that i don’t love, but that are ok, 3 pr of express ones that i do like, and one other pair) and a couple of “emergency i haven’t done any laundry” pairs that i try to never wear.

but, i do really want another pair or two. a dressier pair for sure. i don’t think i could even have enough pairs of jeans, really.

2 skinny + 3 low rider boot cut = 5. Wow. I didn’t realize, that seems like a lot of jeans.

I have 5 pairs of jeans. But I really only wear two of them consistently. The other three are rotated on an as needed basis. One is a dressier pair, one pair is a little tighter than I would prefer but I refuse to get rid of them on the off chance that my body someday goes back to normal and one pair has huge holes in the knees but they’re so comfortable that I refuse to give them up. And honestly, I feel like I need a couple more pairs!

i think i have 4 that i wear on a regular basis, but there are many more lurking in my closet! i love jeans though, so i don’t think there is such thing as too many! ;) Jason would disagree of course!

2. But I’m pretty sure my gender excludes me from having a legitimate opinion on this, doesn’t it?

Nonsense! And you are not the only guy who reads my blog Peter. In fact, I’m sure Jeremy (and the other 6 guys who read this blog) would appreciate your opinion. Please add your two cents dude!

I have…um…4-6 pairs of jeans.. It really depends on how well I am doing at PT at the time. I do own a pair of Cool guy jeans…but…I have not been able to wear them in a while. I want 2 more…COMFORTABLE jeans…and am almost willing to break the 40$ ceiling I have for myself!!!
