Gap Super Skinny Mannequins Cause Outrage
I love the Daily Mail, there is no other news website in the world that can match their daily output of moral outrage and celebrity bikini shots. Today they are getting all worked up about the skinny mannequins at Gap and judging by the photo above they might have a point. Anyone who had legs that thin in real life would be a cause for concern, so in my opinion this is not an appropriate image for the global brand to be projecting to promote their range of "Always Skinny" denim.
Strike Gold Jeans For Sale
Anyone out there interested in getting their hands on a fantastic pair of nearly new premium Japanese jeans at a great discount? About 2 months ago I bought myself a pair of Strike Gold straight leg jeans (shown above) direct from Japan, in the ensuing weeks I have been on a bit of a health kick and subsequently the jeans no longer fit. In my opinion Strike Gold make the best jeans in the world, there is no one out there to beat them for high quality denim combined with classic yet contemporary cuts. These jeans (which I haven't worn even once) cost me $320 but I am selling them for $180 plus shipping. The measurements are as follows
Waist: 34If anyone is interested drop me a line at andy@denimology.com.
Length: 31/32
Knee: 9
Hem: 9
Front Rise: 9.5
Back Rise: 13

Jeffrey Campbell Denim Lita
As I was shoe shopping for some kicks to take with me to NYFW this September, I spotted these Jeffrey Campbell Denim Lita Shoes (which are exclusive to Singer22).
What do you guys think of them? Is the denim Lita "Fab or Flop"?
