Why Am I?


I came across a really great pair of jeans yesterday! Why am I so excited? Well, if you are anything like me you know that great jeans are hard to come by for less that $70. I found a the best jeans ever and they fit me like a dream, aka they make my derriere look good! I got them at Smokin Joes. They are by YMI Jeanswear. I never heard of them before so I asked someone there about them. They told me that the jeans I had tried on were worn by celebrities and even Miss Universe. I really loved the different washes and styles of them. Plus they aren't very low rise so I won't be showing of my derriere outside of the jeans!


The best part is that most of them are around $30... Smokin Joes even has shorts too.

Going Green

I had to go to Smokin Joes the other day for gas, which I got for $3.94 a gallon. I never thought I would be excited to pay that for gas but those are the times. They give you 5 cents off a gallon when you pay with cash, talk about a good deal! Anyway, I stopped inside to see what new things they got in and I saw an entirely new line of clothing called Of The Earth. It is an organic clothing and fabric line. Smokin Joes has Of The Earth bags, shirts, and pants. They are REALLY comfortable. I bought a cute bag for my school books and a T-shirt so everyone else knows that I am going green too! Of The Earth started out with baby, children and adult clothing as well as bath, bedding and furniture. Of The Earth now has Organic apparel and home for the entire family.


Be a part of the Going Green trend and stop in Smokin Joes for your Of The Earth products!

Junk Food!



No, I am not talking about potato chips.  This is better than chips.  Smokin Joes now carries Junk Food T-shirts.  They have a ton of them there too.  If you haven't heard of them you have been living under a rock, but I will explain anyway.  They are vintage looking T-shirts that feature various bands and images from pop culture.  They have ones with Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, and even ones with the Smurfs!

I bought a really cute on that has this cartoon on the front and above it it says "Little Miss Sunshine."  They had the matching sweater there too.  Junk Food T's have caught on in Hollywood and have been seen on Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Miley Cyrus.  The best part is that they start at only $20! Talk about a good deal.  These are really great for back to school and can be dressed up or down. Paris Hilton had one on at an NYC fashion show.

Smokin Joes also had some for guys too that had the old Batman symbol and other neat pop culture symbols from when we were younger.

Wedding Season!

This weekend I had the pleasure of dragging my boyfriend to a friend's wedding. The day before I asked him if he had a suit to wear. He said "yes" and I asked him to put it on... good thing too! It looked like it fit him in high school. After talking him into buying a new suit I decided to take him to Smokin Joes first. The menswear manager Burt Fatta came over to help him find the perfect suit.

They had a ton of suits from short to big and tall and in hard to find colors and styles too. On top of all that they were name brands which my boyfriend was happy about.

He found one that looked awesome on him and can you believe it was only $60?! I thought my eyes were beginning to go bad. The only problem was that the sleeves were a little too long. Again, to my surprise, Burt informed us that there was an on site tailor who could help us. Millie came right over and said that she would have the sleeves hemmed for us in time for the wedding.

Burt also showed us their selection of dress shirts, ties, and cuff links to go with the suit. They were all designer too like Calvin Klein, DKNY, and Calibri. We would have got them had I not already bought a dress shirt, tie, and cuff links at Smokin Joes for his birthday!

My boyfriend was happy this 'ordeal' only cost him $60 and he has a nice suit that will last a long time. I was happy that he wouldn't look like a schmuck at the wedding.

I wear my sunglasses at night




Well I don't really wear them at night, I just thought of that song. Anyway, I went back to Smokin Joes this weekend to check out their new shirts the girl told me about. They are really cute by the way, but I not only found the shirts, I found sunglasses!! Sunglasses that match the swimsuit I just bought. Needless to say I was so excited. They looked awesome. I am going on vacation to Palm Beach in August and these would be perfect to wear with my swimsuit. The sunglasses start at $185, but after my last mistake with the swimsuit I knew these were the best price.

I went home and googled the glasses I bought and guess how much they were, $255! I knew Smokin Joes wouldn't disappoint. They saved me $70.. oo that's a new hoodie.

I think I may be going back to Smokin Joes, soon.
