A couple of weeks ago, we had a very rainy Sunday in Manhattan. Really, really rainy (like, so rainy I made my little dog wear her little rubber booties so her feet would at least stay the tiniest bit dry). I figured there really wasn't anything else to do except hop in a cab and head up to my beloved Bloomingdale's for the afternoon. Now normally, I pretty much refuse to shop on the weekends (way too crowded and unpleasant), but I was in need of some serious retail therapy.
Unbeknownst to me, there was a massive sale going on at said Bloomingdale's, making my retail therapy that much more...well, therapeutic! In the end, I walked away with over a thousand dollars worth of clothing for a mere two-hundred-and-fifty bucks. Major score, I have to say. Of course, the one thing that wasn't on sale is the one thing I just had to share with Stylewhipped's fabulous readers.
From the Bloomingdale's house brand Aqua comes what might just be the most perfect denim leggings ever. On the planet. Seriously. They come in navy as well, but I am 100% in love with the black ones that I bought. Not only do they fit like the most perfect skinny jeans, but are just as soft as your oldest pair of leggings. They have denim finishes and styling, and are OK-TO-WEAR-WITH-A-SHORT-TOP (yes, Cindy, I just said that...and I meant it!). There's just something about the way these fit that eradicates the need for the ominipresent-with-leggings long tunic. Trust me. Oh, and they are $78...most definitely well-worth it, even not on sale. I also wasn't kidding when I said "I'm Wearing These Tonight"...I am...to see my most favorite band...it's a big night, and these make this 4'11" mini look like I have the legs of someone who is 5'8"...so yup, absolutely wearing them tonight ;)
