den.mbar

May 18, 2012 |

For Mother’s Day Mike surprised me with a child-free trip to the den.mbar in downtown LA where we were both fit for a custom pair of jeans. Yes, my husband is rad. Honestly though, I don’t know who was more excited, Mike or me. The whole experience was a bit surreal actually, as I had no idea where we were going until we showed up at the storefront on 7th street. Once inside we were met by the owner Richard Wang, who we owe a big thank you to for opening the shop on a Sunday for C&B. We were instructed to pick out a style and fabric-I chose the skinny style and a thin dark denim with just the right amount of stretch. My favorite part was picking the accessories which included pocket lining, zippers and buttons. I could not resist the sweetheart button and matching bright pink hearts for the pockets. We go back in four weeks for a final fitting and I am beyond excited. Could my quest for the perfect jean be over? We shall see.

    Whoa! It’s like Build-A-Bear for grown-ups. 🙂 I didn’t even know you could do that… must be awesome to have your own personal-fit and designed jeans. 😀 What a great thing your husband did!
