Hi, and welcome to my channel! I am a Beauty Addict and love to create how-to beauty tutorials for short hair and hairstyles, makeup, and lifestyle in general. I try to make my videos informative, creative and most importantly entertaining. Sometimes it may be dry humor. I warned you.
I love interacting with my viewers. Let's get to know each other.
Love, Milabu - Jak na to + styl
I don't think I've ever spent more than $50 on a pair of jeans hehe... I think it would've been more interesting if your husband purchased the jeans and covered the labels... and you ranked them without knowing the cost..a blind test in a way...I think sometimes we're biased because more expensive things are SUPPOSED to be better... but I get that more expense usually means better quality
sooo true
I just made this same comment and hadn't seen yours until after. And I agree, a blind test would have garnered a truer review.
great idea
Lorena Garza - I agree
Great idea
I wish you would have tried $30 jeans, because there's a huuuuge gap between $10 and $55. 😂
Lindsey Alexis agreed. still enjoyed the video, would love to see a Round 2!
Lol I thought I was the only one 😂 or at least $20 at like JcPenny it was a huge gap from $10 to $55
yeah like hollister
As a guy, I honestly can't see myself ever paying more than 40$ for a pair of jeans, and where I live the price for clothes are 25% taxes. 25$ at H&M gave me good quality skinny jeans when they were on sale (and there are some jeans on sale nearly all the time), much better than the first pair she tried.
Sam ul only $40?
The biggest problem with women’s clothes is that sizing is not uniform over brands.... it’s a problem because we can’t trust sizing, not even within the same brand :(
I wish someone would work on making a women’s sizing system that every brand could use, and that would work with measurements instead of numbers...
Sabina Hertzum
Agree! You have to judge each pair of jeans on whether they are true fit to their published size charts.
Sabina Hertzum I agree. I think women's sizing could go to how men's are with the number for waist in inches and length.
Sabina Hertzum I agree!
Unfortunately the type of material the jeans are made from would also make it hard to say "universal" chart because any jeans for me that are 100% cotton I take a size 10 (30) but any jeggings or jeans with less than 75% cotton I wear an 8 (29)....
You're so right, I once bought the same Zara pants, same size, in two different colours, and one of them fit, the others were like 2-3 sizes bigger!
When you are younger you can get away with cheaper jeans but in more mature years expensive jeans really make a huge difference in comfort, wearability, and looks! I've had my $200 J jeans for 5 years and they still feel and look great!
I let wealthy people buy them then send them to Salvation Army thrift store where I get them for 2.99! Lol
Yes!!! Ha ha! We are already waaay ahead of the curve! Buy Secondhand First!
Beanieweenieable same
Salvation Army, Goodwill and St V de Paul jeans are all $20 and up here in Oregon, but Salvation Army is usually the lowest of the 3.
Beanieweenieable exactly, I do the same thing. Have a pair of Tommy Hilfiger jeggings from a thrift store and they don’t look or feel like the usual jegging because the quality is so good. My favourite pair of jeans too.
Beanieweenieable yaaaaaas!!!!!!!
Instead of buying just one size it would have been nice to compare jeans that fit you correctly in different price ranges.
Exactly. Don't get stuck on the number on the label and insist to compare those exact sizes. We get it, it's annoying when your dress sizes vary from company to company. But please compare sizes that actually fit you properly for a fair comparison.
I'm getting some comments regarding my sizing choice (that I'm wearing too small of a size jeans for H&M): I have to be fair to all brands and follow the size they recommend and let their product speak for it self. I based my measurements (waist and hips) on standard ASTM sizing chart for body measurements, which are actually reflected in Nordstrom, H&M, and Dillards (Vince Camuto run bigger, which is the reason they were slightly loose on me). I am wearing exactly the size the stores recommend. Hence, if something doesn't fit, that means it's a quality issue, which is the point I'm supposed to show as part of a review (it shows who follows the standards and who does not). I hope that clarifies any confusion there might be about my choice of sizing.
SO many of are giving some really great recommendations. I can't wait to try some of these jeans out! Thank you
Milabu It's also important that people remember you're trying on new jeans. Almost all jeans, especially designer jeans will stretch out with wear. I used to work in a boutique and we had clients buy them skin tight bc they will stretch. Whenever girls didn't heed our advice and sized up, they often came back upset bc the jeans were quite loose after wearing for a couple hours.
All clothing manufactures size differently. A size up doesn’t mean you’re heavy. It’s just a number
if I can zip them up, no muffin top, squat without ripping or restraint and they're comfortable, they fit.
Too make a person look slimmer they eliminate the pockets .
That’s right ! Measurements and sizes are different in some brands of jeans. In some of them I’m 28 and in others I’m 30. I have this pair of jeans that I hate jajaja because they squeeze all my curves jajaja. Every time I go to buy jeans I jump, squat, walk in the changing room so I can test if it’s a great pair of jeans 😊
You missed the mid range 25$-40$ jeans you can get at Forever21
or hollister
H&M has European sizes, so they run smaller than our vanity sizes in the US. For instance I'm usually a size 2 everywhere, but in H&M I'm a 4. And I agree with the other posters, don't take it personally but you might feel much better about the pairs you try if you try size 27. I know sometimes we get used to our size and don't want to go up a size cuz it doesn't feel good, but I think it would be more flattering on you and wouldn't "pop out everywhere" as you say, or feel too tight anywhere. Cuz believe it or not, those words are a sign of them being too small on you, they wouldn't bulge or pop out anywhere if they were the right size.
I'm european and always thought that H&M sizes runned bigger than other brands... Interesting. Also totally agree about trying out diferent sizes, no one is going to see that label!
I disagree, always ALWAYS get the absolute smallest size you can squeeze into in jeans, the stretch out so much when you wear them
Going a size bigger doesn't work for me because they run big around my waist and tight around my hips, butt and thighs... which i don't experiance with specialty designed jeans
keepinitreal f
H&M are rubbish with sizes nothing ever comes up right I'm a size 8 (uk) jeans and a 6 (uk) top in loads of brand name clothing and I have to go up at least 3 sizes for anything to fit in H&M I refuse to shop there it's a joke.
I used to work in H&M for years, every person I ever saw try on/buy a pair always had to size up at least once. The sizing on their jeans is always very much off.
It would be fun to see you try the clothes on without knowing how much they are, and then you could try and put them in price order :)
I don't understand why you got the same size for every pair. Different brands are sized differently.
maybe cause that's her size? And different sizes would just defeat the purpose and wont be accurate for comparison, which is this point of the video.
what about all the medium-price brands? like gap, american eagle, and levis? i feel like that's the bracket most people watching these types of videos are in, and that whole price range was skipped over.
Damn I have a hard time bringing myself to spend more than 5 bucks on jeans from the thrift store lol. I like thrift store jeans cause they have already been broken in and they aren't gonna shrink or expand. Love the thrift store 👍😁
Alli. I’m with you! I also like Marshall’s and TJ Max...when I want quality at lower prices. I have recently begin to buy jeans from a inexpensive chain store, but that is only because, they are distressed perfectly and secondly distressed jeans are trendy...so I would never spend a lot of money on trendy items. I do love finding designer jeans at the thrift store too!! I think had she not knew which pairs of jeans was which and went up a size in the cheaper jeans, review would have been completely different.
Lol me too
Find fab stuff at thrift stores. Best
Alli. Yes! This, I know they won't shrink and they are broken in. My favorite ones to find are American eagle ones, they fit me the best
Every single pair of my designer jeans came from a thrift. And I feel like the luckiest girl in the world when I randomly score $50 jeans for $5! I learned the hard way though, CHECK THE THIGHS BEFORE BUYING.
Then there's me who buys all my jeans at walmart for 10 bucks....Lol
Same with me only jeggings
Me too. I’m poor!
Me too.
Some of my favorite jeans are black distressed denim from Walmart that I got on clearance for 4.99. They smelled a bit like petrolium at first, but after a few washes they were awesome.
Katelynn T nothing wrong with that sister.
The best pair of jeans I have right now only cost $16 at Marshalls.... I tend to stick between $15-$25 for jeans. I feel like paying more than $25 is too much but thats just me.
american eagle is seriously one of the only companies that consistently carries jeans in store that are under $100 but still stylish and comfy, and also are long enough for my long ass 34 inch insteam.
My price range? Between $15 to $40 for Adriano Goldschmied, Paige, Frame (yes, in the $220 price range), 7 For All Mankind, Citizens of Humanity, True Religion and a couple of other expensive, great quality jeans. How? Ebay, Nordstrom Rack, Poshmark, consignment stores and thrift stores. My closet is full of the above brands and I've never paid more than $39, if I'm not mistaken. Not trying to brag; just want others to know that it's possible to get really great quality jeans at affordable prices.😉
AG and Paige are my favorite brands. They consistently fit well, hug my curves, have the right amount of give, etc. that I desire.
Thanks for sharing! This was fun to watch. ☺
Thanks for the info! :)
This was awesome but do you think you could guess the price range by just trying them on? That just might take it to the next level for a true comparison
hahaha now, that would be awesome!
Yeah, it seemed a lot like a self fulfilling prophecy.
Feel like you should gone for $20 pair jeans instead if the 9.99 since then went to a $55? That's too much if a jump lol
I think you should have gotten a bigger size with the first pair, I tend to buy jeans on the 30/35 euro mark, however lately I have been eyeing more expensive one's just because you reach a point were you're like I want good stuff and not have to repurchase because they grow out..
Yes, I would have if I were going to purchase them again. I wanted to compare the same size between different price ranges and brands. All of them fit except the first. I would say, the odds are not that bad :)
nina I see wot ur sayin about gettin next size up but jeans do stretch out after wearing & washing so they wud look baggy at the crotch,knee&waist area. ( And by hip area, if u hav child bearing hips? ) But 4the price u cud buy 2pairs, 1 in each size?! Xx
H&M is honestly horrible in general when it comes to fit in bottoms. I'm a size 4 and I've gone all the way up to a size 10 and not able to properly fit.
tbh when I was size 32 and squeezed on a 25 j brand skinny jeans I look like that.
American eagle... my tried and true
Same!
threeqtrtime - wearing mine right now!
Me tooo! 💕
I won't wear anything else!
yesss
I love the idea of trying things on without knowing the price and guessing which were expensive! But still a great video❤️
Very disappointed that you didn’t actually get your correct size in the first pair. If it were a video about comparing sizes, yes. But you’re comparing the jeans themselves.
I bought the size the store recommend and they didn't fit.
It's not her fault. H&M sizes make zero sense. I stopped shopping there when two pairs of jeans fit me completely different and they were the same style, color, and size. That's how they afford to sell jeans for $10. It's sad on so many levels and frustrating.
i work for an international denim brand, denim with polyester are pure hell in the summer time and have a tendency to make a crease in the wrong place under the butt specially if the pattern is not perfect and depends on the weaving method of the fabric if the polyester is towards the inside, that is when you feel the scratchy feeling inside and sweaty heat. in general, composition of 98cotton 2spandex in quality fabric works the best in terms of fit and durability, denim manufactured in Turquey are one of best quality fabrics and handfeel, for 60-70 usa $ you can start getting a decent pair. i wish you tried on for comparison a 100%cotton that are very trendy and due differences in sizes per brand, you cannot buy denim from shelf by size, also actually each pair is slightly different, so you can try same size 3 diff. pairs and each will look different and finally, because i can go like this for hours :), you have to put them on and move, sit and only after like 30 min you can really see what is going on. Love you, found your channel today!
I get all my jeans on sale! The most I've ever spent was $25, and my absolute favourite pair only cost me $14. They're navy blue (but not the classic dark denim look), super high-waisted, reeeeeally skinny and stretch enough for me to sit down comfortably but not enough that they lose their shape. New subscriber here, gonna binge watch all your videos now 😍
I absolutely love all of your videos. And the fact that your husband is involved is awesome! My hubby is like a lot of guys where when I talk about hair, make-up or clothes, he "mutes me" in his head. lol. I hope you keep making these awesome videos. ❤
I love how simple your style is! You're my inspiration when it comes to buying clothes and styling it together!
I wear those $10 H&M jeans every day and they look awesome, feel awesome, and hold up amazingly well. They have high elasticity after washing even once. I've been buying them since they came out a couple of years ago. I'm fine spending around $100 on jeans, but I haven't found any that I liked as much as those hilariously cheap ones.
You clearly need to buy a bigger size or maybe that specific cut doesn't work on you. Honestly, you needed to size up in almost every pair to avoid that sausage casing look and the rolled over creases under the butt in the back. You aren't fat in any way, so this isn't a criticism of your body. Buying clothes that don't fit just makes weird lumps/bulges/folds.
The number on the label doesn't matter. Your body is what matters. Buy clothes that fit your body.
I used to buy $225 jeans. Now I love hollister advanced stretch jeans when they're on sale for $25. They feel like pajamas 🙌
My favorite pair of jeans are Mossimo from Target. Their skinny jeggings. Perfection. Except that no front pocket issue.
I love my Maurice's jeans! This was a great video, Milana! I really appreciated seeing the comparison between different priced jeans!
I usually spend around $50 for my jeans, but I've recently been getting jeans from Old Navy and they fit me very well and they're usually around $20-$30.
I felt like the Vince Camuto pair looked the best on you! The Frame jeans were flattering also but they were not worth double the price of the Two by Vince Camuto jeans!
Try J brand jeans, and AG. They're my favorite, the fit and durability, comfort, everything!
keepinitreal I love AG jeans... Hudson's too 😍
This was a great video, I enjoy all your comparisons! I’d love to see another denim review on popular brands👍🏻
Best clothing comparison video, in fact best clothing review I’ve seen! Love the on screen info, the language clarity, white background (no distraction), covered all the info that I want to know! Please, please do more clothing/accessories/home goods videos. In fact any consumer reviews. I am a first time viewer, you just popped up as a suggested video, and I’m an instant fan and hit that follow button!
💐VERY WELL DONE!💐
225$ 😂 hell no
I get my Jean's at Ross
10-15 Buck's
Sizing can be so different in different brands in jeans it's crazy. I'm almost always a size 2/26. Once I bought a size 26 on Asos from some European brand. I couldn't pull them up past my knees -_-.
keepinitreal Yes and then some brands you have to size down two sizes! :0
It's a really good video. I used to buy cheap jeans like H&M, Zara, Topshop and never was satisfied with the quality. Two years ago I tried Love Moschino and it was incomparable. They endured so many washes and look brand new.
I've been waiting for a video covering jeans. I've searched a couple times over a couple months and nothing! Thanks and I would love to see more on other brands of jeans.
Crazy I am smaller than you and sometimes have to wear 27... are you really sure you are not taking a size too small...
Height has a lot to do with it too and bone structure. Petite girls wear smaller jeans than you’d think and tall big framed girls wear bigger sizes than you’d think regardless of fat content, though OF COURSE fat content plays a part lol. I use to where a 28 there and really I could’ve gone up in size and I was the same Size (look wise) as her if not smaller but ik I’m taller and have a big bone structure. I always surprise people with my clothes size
You’re right. I wear a 26 at h&m but in other brands like Zara I wear a 24 (50kilos, 1m67)
Size 26! Girl, I'm normally a 00 in Hollister jeans and a 000 in Aeropostale and those same H&M jeans fit MEEE too tight! Deff. a size issue there!
Love your honesty in comparing these. I won't go over 75. I think the 3rd pair looked the best on you. Thank you for making these videos!
Loved it! Keep on with this series of comparisons. You’re genuine and spot on about what matters. 👍🏻
Aww thank you so much! You're so sweet ❤️
I like the old navy rockstar jeans they are soft on the inside and out and they fit me well besides the legs because I’m short and they are too long but that’s it and they are around 20 dollars
Emma Dean omg I just wrote a comment about those being my fave jeans too!!!! Try getting the short fit. I’m 5’10 so I got the tall and they fit great!
I was just going to post about Rockstars! They’re the best!
LOVE THE VERSATILITY OF UR CHANNEL!
Thank you!!!!
Milabu Ur welcome :) I really enjoy watching ur videos
Milabu love your videos ! Could you possibly do routine videos? And more blogs I miss you guys!!
AWESOME and informative video! Thank you! I believe my personal favorite was #3. You have such an amazingly cute and tiny shape they ALL looked great on you!
Now, that's how you do a review! Got right to it, gave relevant info. Thanks.
loved this and just subbed and now l want to try to expensive pair :)
My favorite jeans are from Old Navy! They cost around $30-40 and I wait till they go on sale 😉
This was super fun and interesting! I'd watch more like this for sure
american eagle jeans are definitely my favourite they’re so comfortable and stretchy and flattering. they’re not super cheap, range from around 60 canadian dollars to 110 canadian dollars, but they’re so worth it to me!! love themmmm
As a woman our bodies change one day everything fits looks great other days not so good cheap or expensive variety seems to work for me thanks for the video
I love getting a good deal on jeans at a thrift store. But, considering how long a great pair of jeans can last, $225 is worth it. If you have them for ten years, that's only $22.50 each year. And if a pair of pants is gonna make my body look good, then is there a limit to price? Think I need to start saving....skip the cheap jeans and save toward a great pair. THANK YOU for this!
That's a great way of looking at it :) I always check Nordstrom Rack as well, they have great designer finds for under $100
I agree with you, but the upfront cost of $225 is a lot (to me) and makes me feel guilty for "wasting" the money. However, I would rather one really good pair to 5 or 6 okay pairs. So like you, I will start saving 😊
i don't know but in the uk, we have charity stores where you can get good items for cheap prices if the brand of the item is of good quality or you can buy stuff at tkmaxx. so it is possible to get cheaper items for a high quality price imo. but yeah i think in department stores, higher quality jeans are more expensive.
Good expensive jeans last for years, They feel great and can be washed and worn forever.If you cant afford them, their are facebook groups where you can buy them for 1/3 of the price used.Well worth it, once you buy good quality jeans you won't go back.And they look so much better on than cheap jeans.Mind you I was in my early 40's and it was a gift to myself for loosing weight, I agree , skip cheap jeans and buy great quality jeans on sale.
Denise Marie Many people may fluctuate a size or two up or down over a ten year span. They may no longer fit after 2-3 years, then you've spent way more than $23 per year on that pair of jeans.
I saw that zipper issue just before you talked about it.
Excellent video!
The black T-shirt was a very professional choice to deflect attention to the jeans.
You are a star in every way at the same time as being so natural and fun to watch.
You need a TV show!!!
I loved the show, “What Not to Wear”.
Your’s could be, “What TO Wear”! Yes! No. That’s too boring a name for your perfect TV personality.
Well, thanks again! Loved it!
I loved this video. I would love to see something along the lines of " best jeans $60 and under" for people on a budget!
My price for jeans is about $60 which i can find a comfortable nice designer jeans for that price i won't go more than that .love you Malibu ❤❤🇨🇦
That's a great price!!!
Love you!
I buy the $60ish range in jeans as well, but usually wait for a sale or for them to go on clearance to get them for $30ish lol
marie paradiso i
Now I want 225$ jeans 😟
marie paradiso h bbb bnjiu
My fav jeans are from H&M and they're size 29. I'm taller and thiner than you, so I think you just simply got the wrong size!
TheIvett93 i agree. Thy were way too small so thy cant be judged.
Yeah, I find at h&m I have to go a size up!
I'm not sure why people are trying to defend H&M. I find that a lot of stuff from h&m just does not fit right.
I personally have a lot of stuff from there, and they're quite good quality. I'm not trying to defend, just told my opinion. Needed a few tries, before I've found the perfect size. Sizes are not the same. They can be different in every store/brand. :)
Not defending H&M, its just that it's obvious you can't make a fair comparison if you don't order your correct size
I love all your videos. I've become obsessed with your chanel. Thank you.💞 your personality is awesome too!
Really enjoyed this video, I have soo much trouble finding jeans that fit! The last 4 looked lovely on you x x x
I'm kind of disappointed you jumped from $10 to $55.... there are a lot of amazing jeans at $30
I absolutely love Express jeans! Originally $80 but I get them on clearance for $40!!! Only decent priced jeans that last me more than a year and are so so so comfy and flatter my curves!
gracesquared1 Rerock for Express jeans seem to be really flattering on curvy figures. I sell used jeans on ebay and whenever I post a pair of Rerocks, they sell almost immediately. So I know there must be a bunch of girls out there who really love them! I like the pocket designs.
I agreè
I work in fashion, the 1st and last "expensive pair" probably has both mechanical stretch (engineered) from the polyester and the stretch from the elastane. But one thing I didn't know until recently, the % of elastane or spandex doesn't affect how stretchy it is. It's how the spandex/elastane is treated in the process of making the cloth. The fact that it's in there means it should stretch but the stretch % doesn't necessarily mean it will be more or less stretchy. Kinda cool to know.
It's cool to see someone compare these! Nice job! I wonder, did you keep or return any of them?
Loved this video concept!
LOVE the Vince Camuto jeans on you! I personally love Hudson , Joes and 7 Jeans fort all mankind
BONAFIDE LEVI'S old school, I hate pegged/skinny jeans....I already did that trend in the 80s. I also did Bell bottoms in the 70s and I prefer simple flare or a boot cut. I like real denim without spandex...cuz I did spandex in the 80s too...I had bright red Spandex pants we all did even the boys in Rock Band....hmm anyone remember Motley Crue!!! Lol It's a lot harder to find just regular jeans. Hey how many of you remember THE JORDACHE LOOK? Z Cavs ?? Chic? GITANO? You can buy Jordache for $10 bucks now at KMART! Remember when those were the IT jeans....I Do! I really still love my Levi's 501s and I also love Old Navy flares. I remember this pair of jeans I had in 84ish made by Braxton loved those jeans and my Gloria's when she came out with black denim....holy shit had to have my dad get them cuz my mom would never buy expensive jeans....I spent $70 bucks on a pair of purp!e jeans at Merry Go Round...ewww too much I think you all know I am like 100 years old...lol
Levi's will never never go out of style. Still get so many compliments when I wear mine. Last forever.
Patricia Camp yeah I go on about Jordache being the end of the world (in the 80’s) no one believes me lol. The Jordache high-waist ankle jeans (Walmart in Canada) for me tho are awesome.
Excellent video comparing 5 brands of jeans! Informative. You discussed the features that we wanted to know. Good job, young lady.
American Eagle jeans are flattering on pretty much everyone. They will always be my fav ♡
I just bought some jeans from Costco. $15. Soft and fit me well. Ha!
For the second one you wrote $5 instead of $55 lol
ReinaInoue she did lol 😜
Good thing I actually said $55 :)
you did said it, but you wrote $5 on the screen, little mistake!
My favorite jeans of the moment are a pair of Hudson jeans that I got at Nordstrom Rack for about $99, so about half off. They fit great, and don't stretch even after several wears. Getting them for under 100 bucks feels GREAT, too!
2nd pair is sooooo good on you! Its my fav honestly
I usually expect to find jeans (and do find them) that are pretty cheap. I would never spend that much money on jeans, no matter how soft or confortable they feel. It's just ridiculous.
Ohhh I like my $25 mall jeans! The quality is good enough for me to move, slap a belt on, and nap in! Definitely cannot spend more than $50. I only have two pairs right now and they are treating me good.
I bought a pair of Citizens, for almost $200 CAD with tax about 12 years ago. They are 98% cotton and 2% elastane-- the denim was heavy and required to be broken in. They started out mid-blue. completely "clean" not distressed, no whiskers. They were always flattering, but I actually get more compliments on them now than when I first bought them! They've become a light-ish blue, but can still be dressed up or down. I can't wear them at the office anymore as they've only finally started to get a hole at the knee. (I'll probably patch them up and keep wearing them.) Also, I only have 1 pair of blue jeans, 1 white, and 1 black, and I wear jeans about 3 days out of the week.
I would say my break point is about $250 for blue and black jeans, but designer denim regularly goes on sale, so you can usually get a good deal. It's a slippery slope, once you go higher end, it's harder to compromise. My break point for white jeans, however, is about $70, just in case I have a really clumsy day... :)
I've just bought a pair of Levi's for $113 with tax. They are the same fabric composition as the my old Citizens, again, lovely heavy denim. My husband accused me of buying an iteration of the Citizens. We'll see if these last another 12 years!
Loved this video! Please do more ☺ Would also love to see some of you workout routine. I saw some clips on insta but would love to see a full video.
Lol, I get my jeans from thrift stores.
Quick question, did you try anything between $10 and $50? I wouldn't spend $50.... or $10. Just curious 😊 loved the video!
I absolutely ADORE Frame jeans. They are so freaking flattering.
The last pair immediately looked the best. Great video!
Hi Milabu! Great video! I'm new to your channel, but I think PAIR #3 look best on you. You look slimmer from the front (not that you need to look slimmer), and your butt looks good from the sides and back. I'm also a size 26 and wear Rock Revival and some Miss Me jeans. But I also have a few pair of 27s because the fit is just different, even though they're all mostly lower to mid-rise and all skinny jeans. I have also worn the same brand & style in 2 different sizes (when I was visiting my sister and borrowed a pair of hers). The difference... how they're laundered. She's much younger and busier than me and launders her jeans like normal clothes, and I'm very careful with mine (turn inside-out, cold wash, air dry on rack then low last 10 minutes) so they stay looking new. Now that I know what size I am, I buy jeans either NWT or NWOT from Poshmark. I bought the exact same pair of $179 Rock Revivals from Poshmark for $60 and now I will never pay full price for a pair of jeans ever again!
I have to disagree with this, in my experience. I used to wear more expensive jeans because I am so tall, cheaper brands never made long enough jeans. But they all wore out and ripped and were so tight and uncomfortable. I finally started shopping for jeans like $15-30 and they are amazing, I can't believe I wasted so much money on expensive jeans before. But nowadays, stores make a lot more sizes for tall and short people.
Kelsi Morris my thoughts exactly
I think another important factor to consider is durability, I used to only buy cheap jeans because I figured they were just as good as "fancy expensive ones". Unless you are incredibly small, your thighs will rub together as you walk and that leads to chafing and piling. So when I discovered the difference between $25 target jeans and $80 Levi's jeans (they often have discounts so it's closer to $60) it makes all the difference in how long my jeans last until they get holes. 1-3 pairs of quality jeans is something everyone should invest in, cause boy does it change how comfortable you are throughout your day and how often you have to buy new jeans. Money isn't really an excuse as you can buy gently used clothes from apps and thrift stores, instead of buying a $30 new pair of cheaper jeans you can easily find gently used jeans of a much better material and brand for near the same price range or sometimes less!
Granted a lot of time when you get in the higher end of brands (Like 200+ range) many items just have increased brand value and not significant differences. It's good to have label you trust, but don't pay ridiculous prices just to have a label.
k, sorry for the rant lol
I love your hair!!!😍 and you’re freaking adorable💕
Thanks for this ! I haven't purchased a $$ pair of jeans ever.....I have thought about it ....but my idea of spending no more than $20 for a pair of jeans...well, that's just me. I also don't like my jeans to look faded, so when I wash them for the first time I put them in the washer after I have added the water I add:
The recommended amount of detergent
1 1/2 cups of Vinegar ( it doesn't matter if it's white distilled vinegar or Apple Cider Vinegar they both work the same ) to the wash water.
I then add the Fabric Softener Pearls /Beads...whatever they're called OR I add Downy Liquid in the Downy Ball.....
**************************************************************************************************************************
The Vinegar SETS the color on your jeans.....ACTUALLY to help prevent fading, add a 1 1/2 cup of Vinegar to ALL new clothes you wash.....then repeat adding vinegar every 6-7 washings.......it keeps your clothes looking new and is so much CHEAPER than Color Catchers....and besides you don't really know about all the chemicals that are in the color catchers....but there's nothing in Vinegar that will hurt you OR your clothing !
Also, if you like creases in your SLEEVES or your slacks / jeans ......take a wet wash cloth, pour vinegar on the wash cloth, wring out and then put on the cease....and using a hot iron press the crease into your clothing ! This will keep the cease in your clothes for a while.....then when you want to put the cease back in the clothes, just repeat !
I think the Vince Camuto jeans looked the best on you, really flattering. The price was pretty reasonable too for a nice pair of jeans.
I love your confidence💖. You are super cute! Thank you for being you. I recently starting following you after searching for braids. Keep bringing on your awesome videos. 😊💖✨💁
Jeggings are what I mostly wear now! I LOVE THEM!!! 😍😍😍😍😍 I wear jeans occasionally but not often. I'd say my price range is about $10-$25
liked your video infact please do more, but with that being said I have to say that you can not expect all jeans to fit the same just because you are a size 26. every designer has their own pattern so if the cheep $9.99 jeans were too tight they may have worked if you moved up a size. same goes for the other ones you were happy with but a couple of things were off. get the next size up and save yourself some money.
Yes, I know :) But I was curious how off the sizes would be. The only one that didn't fit me correctly were the first ones.
I love Rag N Bone jeans but can't spend $200 on 1 pair right now so I buy used on Ebay! I've bought many that look like new for $30-$40!
Fashion Elle haha I sell used jeans on ebay and I love rag n bone!! they always sell quickly and I love the quality. they hold up REMARKABLY well. like, most used jeans are in crappy condition (rock revival is the worst)... but whenever I find r&b in the thrift store, they are almost always in amazing shape, sometimes new without tags. I think that just shows they're made of good material, with good quality control that pays attention to details. I personally couldn't afford to buy them at retail prices but I do think they are a worthwhile investment.
LOVED that last pair! Perfect length on you too compared to the others you had to fold at the bottom.
Gap jeans fit me the best. I am a pear shape and have always felt like Gap jeans always fit great and last a long time. They’re around $80 and under, and I love them. I wouldn’t spend more than $100 on jeans. Awesome video Milana!
I like jeans that are soft, but I don't wear them that often.
I think the H&M jeans weren't that bad, you just picked out a size that is way too small for you.
+jessica lamarre thanks for the comment. :) that was the whole point, I bought the size each brand recommended to see how true and what kind of quality they are (I did not want to make excuses for the brand, I let the brands product speak for it self.)
I picked 4 and 5 before the video even started! Best fit on you and looked nice!
Out of all !! I love the #3 & #5 👍👖
I love my Old Navy and Loft jeans as much as my Paige Denim and Joe's Jeans. I will day that Old Navy lasts the longest out of those and are the cheapest.
Perfect 👖 demo 👍 love the 2nd and last on you 💜
I liked the second pair too!
M * i
Honestly, I thought the third pair was most flattering, and for the price and quality, definitely the way I would go.
Such a creative video. Love it ❤️
Really like this comparison video! Keep doing these. :)
