Paige Denim – Meatpacking District

Paige creates denim that fit perfectly. I love the texture, shape, and feel. What I don’t like is how they fall apart after a few washings. Now I know they instruct you not to wash «quality» denim unless absolutely necessary but, come on. We are living in NYC amongst all kinds of filth, exposure to bed bugs, and germs. As New Yorkers washing our clothing is a must, so I wish that Paige denim didn’t get holes in various areas after washing.

Lets be honest. No one likes to shop for denim, no one. Maybe Gisele Bundchen but otherwise, it is a total bummer. Endless hours looking for the right fit, the one pair that doesn’t bunch at the waist, that has the right length, that isn’t too low or high cut, that won’t fall apart in the dryer and on and on and on.
I have hundreds of jean brands — everything from Levis to Top Shop to Chip & Pepper — and I haven’t really found a brand that I am slavish too — until now.
I found my long lost dream jeans at Paige in this adorable little shop. Paige has everything from jeggings to boot cut to high waisted, zipper accented jeans — all in tons of washes and colors and fabrics (they have corduroy jeans as well).
The employees at the store are Paige specialists, so they know the fit inside and out. The saleswoman recommended three pairs to me and all fit like a glove — I asked about another pair of low waist boot cut jeans and she was honest and said that in her experience, that style worked best with much taller frames but she brought them to me to try on — and I realized she was right. They don’t rush you and the shop is clean, well organized and they were playing great music,
I walked out with a bright/​fashion-​y blue jeggings, a black skinny jean and a tie dyed jean. Pricey but they fit well so worth it.
Great service — they filled my shopping bag with little candies and a fancy pen as well and told me to come back if I needed tailoring or had questions about the fit.
Bonus? It is located right next to Scoop and Scoop Street so you can go find tops, shoes and jewelry to rock with your new jeans!
