Nothing gets between you and your Calvins.

But there are times (read: reality checks) when life suddenly reminds you that no one’s living in the Blue Lagoon anymore.

Much as you love the past, why not shift your horizon to the future at the Denim Revolution sample sale? The two-day bonanza features samples, seconds, and overruns from all your favorite denim and sportswear lines.

What does that mean exactly? Something to the tune of 3,000 pairs of jeans and 4,000 sweats, tops, and belts. Brands are supposed to be top secret, but we hear they’ve had the likes of James, Seven for all Mankind, Paper Denim & Cloth, and Linea Pelle. (Thanks, little birdie.)

Everything goes for 80 percent off retail, so I-saw-it-first scuffles are inevitable. Private dressing rooms give you space and time to change.

You’ll need it to get out of those skin-kissing Calvins.

Sale is Saturday, 11 a.m.-7 p.m., and Sunday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m., at Embassy Suites North, 2401 Bass Pro Drive, Grapevine (213-747-7175 or thedenimrevolution.com).
