clothing rant

paperclippySo, most of my work clothes come from Ann Taylor Loft. I am, in general, a big fan of their clothes. Here is the problem. At first, I thought it was really cool that they always included extra buttons with their clothes. How kind of them to be so thoughtful!
Well, it turns out the reason they do it is because they suck ass at attaching buttons. One pair of pants I bought? The interior button popped off the FIRST time I wore them (no, I did not buy them two sizes too small, they fit just fine). I have two skirts that popped buttons the first or second times I wore them. Today a button popped off my pants -- my pants that have at least 1/2 inch of extra room in the waist and are only a couple months old. WTF. Why are they incapable of attaching buttons correctly? Lucky for me Martha Stewart has instructions on how to replace a button correctly. I guess I know what I'll be doing tonight.
