I'm tired of spending $ on junk!

Was ironing a pair of capris I have worn ONCE that I bought at Banana Republic. I look down and one of the hems on the leg fell down..Chat Icon ...I know, not a big deal but still - I have only worn them once and BR is not cheap!!!!

A few months ago I bought 2 pairs of pants at NY&Co...haven't been able to wear them since bc I washed them once in cold water and they shrunk like 2 sizes. Chat Icon

I give up!

I would return them. I returned a sweater to Macy's a month ago that fell apart after I washed it one time. They took it back no questions asked.

I have stopped shopping at BR unless I find an incredible deal. The hems have fallen on everything I've bought from there in the past year. So annoying.

Re: I'm tired of spending $ on junk!

ill go crazy at banana outlet and then half the stuff will turn a color when washed or the hem will fall down etc.
i swear the quality is so crappy on BR stuff!!!

but i go and see all these great deals at the outlet and fall into the trap

old navy too- their hems fall down too

so annyoing

suprisingly h&m clothes last a while

I agree with the quality at Banana Republic and I would also return them. I did this with a shirt a few months ago and they gave me no problems..I guess they know that the quality of their clothes sucks! Chat Icon
