OUT OF TOUCH: Lucky February 2014


Again, as this issue of Lucky demonstrates, I don't think "affordable" means what fashion mags think it means.  This really just shows how skewed their world is.  $206 sweatshirts.  $185 crop tops.  $295 pants.  The "surprise" here is that Lucky thinks this stuff is cheap.

  1. I could buy 9 pairs of pants for the price of that one pair. If I wanted to get fancy I could buy 8 polo shirts for the price of that crop top too!

    Now I am tempted to hit Target and see if I am right.

  2. Knowing Target prices, I'm sure you are right. The Peter Pilotto line is debuting there tomorrow, and I can't imagine their crazy print pants are going to be more than $40-50 a pair. For the average person, that's probably a bit of a splurge for a crazy print pant, but I'd say it's "affordable" in comparison.
