Fashion-gasm.I friggin' love Wet Seal.
They make the BEST fitting pants I have ever owned. They're cheap as hell and will probably fall apart, but they FIT me properly! Yes. I'm *that* excited about pants.



I also *kind of* want this dress, but I don't like the color.

2. The clothes are really cheap, so it's a good source for trendy items
that don't need to last too many seasons.

3. Oooh....
Very cute.

I just bought myself a strapless, black and white polka dot dress, and black peep-toe wedges, even though I have absolutely nowhere to wear them, because they were cute.

We need a 12 step program. ;)

:hi:

4. Hey you!!!
I am lusting over a number of cute peep-toes, at present. There are tons of them this spring! I realize we likely have a sickness, but it's the kind of sickness I can enjoy!

8. My husband got a VS catalog and has been swimsuit shopping for me.
He has decidedly divergent preferences from mine...

10. Yep!
I figure trendy stuff doesn't need to last that long (although I wish the pants would hold up).

16. Yes! They have REALLY cute dresses!
I was perusing the dresses on their website. I'm dying for summer to get here so I can go back into sundress-mode. It's still too coldto wear anything spring-y, here.

11. I think so!
Good butt pants are hard to find! I bought four pairs of them.

15. Wet Seal is usually a good deal, i have 2 pairs of jeans from them and they do fit
really well.

Best thing you can do is wash on delicate and then hang them to dry, i hand dry almost everything and they last much longer.

17. That seems like apt advice.
I'm trying to baby my pants so they won't fall apart. I'll likely employ tactics similar to those you mentioned to get at least a little mileage out of my stuff.

I spent about a hundred bucks for four pairs of pants and two shirts!
