From the Los Angeles Times - exciting news!
Click Here for Sample Sales

Once the sole domain of underpaid, overdressed minions of fashion, the sample sale has gone so mainstream, it’s practically its own segment of retailing.
And now, two new websites — the New York-based Gilt Groupe and the Los Angeles-based HauteLook — are bringing the sample sale to the Internet.
Both sites offer designer-specific sales, one to three times per week. Sales last 48 hours, and members at both sites must register to “attend.” (Gilt Groupe requires an invitation from a member, though the company encourages e-mailing the site if a referral is needed.) ***Editor’s Note - if you click the link above, TheDenimBlog.com members are able to sign up without a referral. ***

On Yoox.com, just $69 - we love these Diesel Crossim jeans. The lack of back pockets in back gives the booty a boost! And the front of these is different from our other Diesels, and we like them a lot! What a steal!

Check out Vanessa Minnillo in a pair of Kasil Skinny Jeans. Cute! Kasil is another one of those underrated brands that fit fabulously - we need to get a few more pairs! But they rarely go on sale!

We love that one of our favorite denim designers has just in time for the holidays released their sensual Diesel Fuel For Life fragrances in a refashioned way. These perfect gift items are available as a pocket chain–with refillable fragrance cartridge–for that edgy girl or guy on the go ($75) or the limited “Bling” edition 75 ml bottle–adorned in gilded chains and housed in a sleek black box–for the person who appreciates a supremely stylized present ($95).

Both limited editions are available in Diesel stores, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus.

We love Hudson jeans, they have the right amount of flare and we love the signature triangle pockets! This pair is so cute and on sale at Kultic for just $132.00!

in 575 denim and deal of the day.

We are all about flap pockets because they make the booty look better, especially for those of us with not too much back there! That’s why we love these 575 Flap Pocket Bootcut Jeans - on sale for just $62.99 at BlueFly!

We just bought the 7 for All Mankind Nakita Shorts recently on Ebay. Then today we spotted this 7 for All Mankind Nakita pencil skirt at Revolve and loved it too- must have both! So cute and its something different to add to our denim collection! Just $108 on sale!

We’ve been wanting to try Genetic Denim. Even though we generally can’t stand Lindsay Lohan’s drama, she does have good fashion sense most of the time! These look to us like a pair of Genetic Denim’s Twisted Seam Wide Leg Jean in Cobalt. Love!

in raw denim.

Have you ever wondered what a month is like in the life of a denim maniac? Chicken (pictured above) was the first member of the Dirty Dozen + 1 project which sees 13 people consecutively wearing the same pair of jeans everyday for one month each before passing it to the next member. The jeans are already well travelled and have made it to ball games, amusement parks, to the seaside, and central park in a just a few weeks. Denim maniacs know that the only way to wear raw selvedge denim is to wear it often and never wash it so that the denim develops natural wear and incredibly unique features like a patina, whiskers, and honeycombs. When the Dirty Dozen + 1 jeans are finished in late 2008 they would have had 13 continuous months of everyday wear!

We are loving the clean lines and darker wash of these Paige Premium Hollywood Hills Bootcut Jeans in Barcelona wash! They are just $119 on sale over at ELuxury!
