Really quite ugly.

They also have a $20 off denim sale starting the 18th which should bring the prices down to $40-50 on the jeans that actually look good :)

Never heard of any express stores up here. Is it an American thing only?

Can't find their site with a quick google search!

BR is really expensive but if you can afford it, i say go for it. If you wanna save money and get basically the same look, I'd check GAP, i really like their stuff.

I intend to milk my parents for all they're worth!

Once I'm out on my own I'll probably be a little more price conscientious.

Yep, maybe I'll pick up a dirty hooker on my way to dinner to make it look completely authentic.

Some of us don't enjoy dressing like white trash! ;)

:Q white trash wouldn't wear the boardies ;), and wife beaters are a country boy thing here ;)

Metrosexual: A gay guy still in the closet. This word is so contemptible that even the man who coined it has since apologized for being such a douche. I cringe every time I hear this word.

I think either way you get more bang for your buck with GAP, but if your parents are willing to spend any amount then i say gogogo. dont forget to check out Buckle, they carry lots of brands that are similar to the look you're going for although a little more urban/youthful

I cringe every time I hear your intellectually deficient brain feed yet another stupid remark to your disgustingly pale fingertips.

I'll probably check out GAP tommorow also, as I'm sure they have some different styles. I've had good experiences with both stores. However, I usually go to one store (typically go to BR first) and buy everything I need, thus eliminating any need to shop around!

Thank god.

For a moment I *almost* thought you had adopted proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling... you know, the fundamentals you learn in grade four.
