The Art of Shopping's spring sample sale starts today. This means men's and women's tops and jeans are discounted 50-80 percent. Think 7 for all Mankind, True Religion, Earnest Sewn, Theory, Ed Hardy, T Luxury, Ben Sherman, People's Liberation, Hudson, and more.

After reading People Liberation's online denim descriptions, we need 80 percent off to persuade us to purchase these pants. Behold the details of their Tommy Lee designed drainpipes:

How great are you going to look in these Tommy Lee skinny jeans? Imagine the fit: these jeans fit your body just like Tommy Lee's tattoos fit his body.

Eww. Even more vague is the write-up for their "Jenny Boot Cut Jeans Bentley Wash Gold Skull" style:

Always wanting to be different, Jenny is one member of the People's Liberation family who doesn't hold back. She demands to be the center of attention!

That's cool that "Jenny" is so confident, but what about the pants? Although four bullet points provide perfunctory notes, we'll have to visit the sample sale to find out more.

And while you're on Greene Street, check out Anna Sui's sale. Although it's been going on for three months, two full racks of merchandise, discounted 30-50 percent, still hang. At least now you won't blow an entire paycheck on a funky knit tank top.
