skinny jeans & a giveaway...

GAP: born to fit!

GAP: born to fit!

[linkage to my skinny jeans, here!]

I was recently given the opportunity to be a Gap Brand Enthusiast - which is, um, the greatest thing ever. Thanks to Gap and Brand About Town, I've been able to get some ridiculously awesome things from Gap (for freee!) and was also able to throw a ridiculously awesome party in Hollywood with a bunch of my friends. Who would have thought that I'd be given such an amazing opportunity, simply because of my blog? Definitely nothing I ever planned on.

Let's just say I've pretty much been in non-stop "SQUEEEE!" mode for a while now.

The party in Hollywood was definitely one of the highlights of this whole thing. I co-hosted my party with Nicole, and had a lovely time! We were pretty much treated like celebrities for an evening, which every girl should experience at least once. (Or seventeen times.) They treated us to dinner at The Ivy beforehand (I was seriously disappointed at the lack of celeb action - I mean, where is an Olsen Twin or Twilight cast member when you need one? SERIOUSLY.) and then we headed over to the Gap store on Robertson Blvd. that was closed to the public for the evening, and open for just the ladies at the party!

Highlights of the evening:

  • Every person receiving a coupon for a FREE PAIR OF JEANS AHHHH.
  • Random dudes walking around with mini grilled cheese sandwiches, brownie bits dipped in chocolate, other random tiny foods that were seriously delightful, and mmmm...wine!
  • Hanging out with a bunch of my friends all under one roof (which was slightly overwhelming because I am SO NOT GOOD at parties and trying to make sure I mingle with everyone - hello, panic attack).
  • The amazing employees who helped everyone find just the right pair of jeans.
  • Free digital camera! Free flip video camera! Gahhh!
  • Taking forever to decide on what pair of jeans to get because I'm apparently a non-decision maker. (Thankfully I was surrounded by a bunch of people who helped me decide on some adorable skinny jeans - as seen in the photos above!)

The whole experience really changed my view of the Gap brand - and I'm not just saying that because they gave me free jeans. Honestly, I haven't really shopped there since I was sixteen and sweater vests were in style (because they had the best sweater vests, obviously). I always saw their clothes as "older" and didn't think that they would really appeal to me as a twenty-something. Also, I am always wary about jeans in general, because shopping for jeans is the devil and I can rarely find a good length or fit.

Having said all that, I definitely recommend this new line of jeans. (Check out all the styles heeeere!) From what I saw, and from the feedback I heard from the other ladies at the party, I know the jeans are high quality - and worth the $60-$70 pricetag. I'm a total cheapskate when it comes to clothes, but I think we all know that when you find the perfect pair of jeans, it's work the little extra. (And these are much cheaper than a freaking designer pair!) I say at least give a pair of these babies a whirl! They had so many fits and styles - all ridiculously gorgeous. And also? I WEAR A SIZE TWO. WHAT. Apparently their sizes run large, so you'll be able to squeeze your bootie into a smaller size than your used to, which, as a female, is definitely good for the soul.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL! (Yes, it was necessary for me to scream that information.) I also have a $50 gift card in my hot little hand (no, really, it's seriously hot right now) that I'll be sending to one of my readers! Simply leave a comment telling me your own, personal favorite style of jeans before Monday, Steptember 14 rolls around. (Make sure to leave your email address so I can contact you if you win!) Only one entry per person, puh-lease, and I'll announce the winner on Monday. Excited yet? WELL, I AM!

And in case you're bored (or even if you're not) here's the video I made from our party - enjoy!

My favorite jeans, for a long time, were Old Navy's low-rise Diva jeans, but I bought a new pair recently and haaaaated them. I could definitely use some new jeans - and your party sounds BALLER!

Elly said...

Hurrah for pretty new jeans and awesome parties! :)

Anonymous said...

I have to go try those on. I've been searching for a pair of skinnies for what seems like forever. I like the looks of the straight too!

San said...

My favorite pair of jeans is a "7 for all mankind". Gorgeous jeans, but so freakin' expensive.

I would love me a new pair of cool jeans from the GAP, for sure, and I would use the gift certificate wisely! :)

This Gap Party sounds awesome, I wouldn't mind going to one sometime.

You are just about the cutest thing ever! Love the video. :)

Kristy said...

I remember my first pair of wide-leg jeans. I was in middle school (8th grade, I think) and just coming off the tapered-jeans wave. Anyway, I wore those things OUT. Literally. By mid-high school I had hand sewed a bunch of ridiculous patches on the knees and butt. I probably wore them twice a week. And no one even commented on that fact, but I suspect they did mention it when my back was turned.
And for the record, they were Bongo. And a size 3. Oh the glory days....

anyway, YAY for free jeans.
And when I win, you can contact me at everydaykg @ gmail dot com!

Christina said...

I love Gap jeans, when I can find the right ones. I've been dying to try to new kinds. You look so cute in your new pair!

I love this one pair of True Religions that I have had for 2 years. It may have been a splurge to purchase but it's worth it.

Jenni said...

I adore Gap's new skinny jeans as well. They looks so good on just about everyone - yourself included!

Here's my e-mail should I just happen to win this fabulous giveaway! :)

Katie said...

My all-time favorite jeans are Citizens of Humanity. So chic!

Shelby said...

I live in my american eagle jeans... I've got fairly short legs and I'm a curvy chica, so jeans are AWFUL for me to try and find. ae has some of the only jeans that fit me well...and I wear jeans all the freaking time.

p.s. Kerri, you're a rockstar!

My favorite cut of denim these days are the Joe's Provocateur. They hug my curves just right and are petite so I never have to get them altered.

Meaghan said...

I love Calvin Klein and Gap bootcut jeans!

Skinny jeans. All the time.

Spatzi said...

My favorite style of jeans is... ANY STYLE THAT MAKES MY BUTT LOOK GREAT (it is the first thing every lady checks out while trying on jeans, is it not?) AND IS NOT TOO LOW CUT (cleavage is not attractive, period.)

=)

squirt said...

i loooove skinny jeans. I know some people feel so strongly against them, but i have practically no curves, and skinny jeans actually make me look like i am a 24-year-old woman instead of a 12-year-old boy.

e. corcoran said...

so first off let me say i completely agree with you about being a cheapskate with clothing. why pay more when it can look like a billion bucks and you got it at "Tar-get" or some thrift shop. Still, I completely agree with you about jeans. I think I have a sick obsession...

I dont like one brand in general, it just depends. For me, I like trouser denim. I feel like they are so classy and feminine looking, espeially with a cute pair of heels. Stacey London from What Not to Wear would probably also agree that they are the most flattering on my body type, because they 'elongate the leg.'

rachel said...

dark wash! they are so easy to dress up for a night out!

(also, i'd love any pair of jeans that tells me i'm a size smaller than i am. gap sure knows the way to a womans heart!!)

Anonymous said...

Kerri, this is awesome another giveaway?!! Now you are just too cool for the pool!! LOL! I know, I know please don't kill me. ;)
Anyways, my all time favorite style of jeans are "Bootcut". They are a timeless fashion staple that deflects attention away from your waist,hips,and thighs. Plus this classic style is best for the "fuller" figured (which I am).
So bootcut jeans foreverrrrrr!!! ;)

Janet said...

I've always liked Gap jeans but the new ones are even prettier. Sounds like a fun party!!

Lindsey Marie said...

My favorite style of jeans lately, are those that are too long and force me to put on heels! I have a tendency to go for comfort rather than style, so getting out of flats feels sexy for a change!

Lisa said...

I love the boyfriend cyut jeans. I also love the skinny jeans but my booty is to big for them!
:)Lisa

amanda said...

for a while i used to only buy abercrombie straight leg jeans because they were the only place i could find that fit perfectly in the length and waist. but they are SOOOO expensive and really not that great quality. so then i moved to forever 21 and surprisingly they fit pretty well, and hello? 12 dollars! i like their dark wash skinny style best.

Lauryn said...

Congrats on your new review blog!

You have me wanting to go over to Gap and check out the new selection! It would be awesome to "squeeze my booty" into a size 4, hehe! :)

Unknown said...

My favorite jeans have to be boyfriend jeans. I had a pair from A&F that I wore until they literally fell apart one day.

I am very jealous of your party. Sounds like it was awesome!

Jessica said...

So my favorite jeans were a pair I bought at Target a couple years ago and I haven't been able to find them since. So now I'm thinking I should check out the Gap! Of course I'm expecting a baby in about 6 1/2 weeks, so I've been sporting the maternity jeans! I'm soooo ready to wear regular clothes again.

I have to admit that I found some really cute maternity skinny jeans at motherhood. Sounds strange right? How can skinny and maternity go together? Well they do and I feel like one hot mama when I wear them!

Courtney Hope said...

Ok. Like seriously. I, too, am IN LOVE with the new Gap jeans... and no, i'm not just saying this to try to score your gift card (except that I really do want to score that gift card)... but the curvy style born to fit really are my new favs...

they just make me feel better, and that is worth every penny I have (all 1000 of them ;))

Unknown said...

gosh i love your blog and now you have another! so exciting! my favorite jeans are structured like denim leggings and are from anthropologie!

missy said...

So basically, jeans own my life. I'll buy designer jeans but get my tops from Target;) But I still have not bought any skinny jeans and I need some. Dark wash, boot cut jeans with a seam ironed down the front paired with wedge sandals make me swoon:)

Amber said...

My favourite brand of jeans so far are American Eagle!! But those Gap ones that you're wearing are REALLY REALLY cute! I would love to get a pair of skinny jeans like that!

My email is amber (at) girlwiththeredhair (dot) com!

I'm crossing my fingers to win!!

Lydia said...

i live in gap's long and lean jeans. they always fit just right.

KEB said...

I love your jeans!
I hate jean shopping!

I'm only 5'2"...so they're usually too long...I've found some 7 for all Mankind jeans I love...but they are $$$.

Right now I'm rocking Gap long and lean jeans. I like that they are higher rise than most young people jeans. ALSO, they come in LONG! wooo!

My email is kar314 at gmail

Mrs. Priss said...

AH! How awesome is this!?

My favorite jeans come from Old Navy... usually the darkest wash they have in the Diva fit. They make my thighs look skinny, therefore, love.

Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Holly said...

I would like to enter the drawing. The pair I am most interested in are the Perfect Boot Cut jeans. I love Gap Jeans but haven't purchased a pair in quite a while. The gift card would be a nice way to get back into them.

Here is my email.

Gap is definately one of my favorite shops for jeans. This summer I found the perfect straight leg low-rise jean that hugged all my non-curves perfectly! It actually gave me a butt! Horray! The best part was they were only $15 on super clearance!! It's time for a great pair of fall/winter jeans and a gift card would come in handy ;)

Kat said...

I'm the type that has 1 pair of jeans (yes, I said 1) that I wear CONSTANTLY until they get holes in them, are falling apart, and just not ok to be seen in public in. I have a pair of Candie's jeans right now that I'm praying will stand the test of time because I haven't been able to find any new ones I like.

I am in a jeans slump! My old favourites are no longer my faves and therefore I need your help!

Morgan said...

Those are great jeans and, of course, you are adorable! :)

My favorite jeans are the good, old bootcut. I love skinny, straight, and trouser, but I always go back to the bootcut. Always flattering when they fit perfectly!

Mrs. LC said...

I love dressy super dark jeans that are perfect to go out. :)

email: mrslcblog at gmail dot com

Heather said...

I love GAP jeans. Pretty much all of them. I usually go for bootcut or skinny.

meganOD said...

Although I love all jeans, my favorite are definitely dark, boot cut jeans. As long as they fit well and aren't too long/ short I'll take any brand that fits!

megan.e.odonnell@gmail.com

Talia said...

um.... I don't have a favorite pair of jeans. Jeans are something that I've never really conquered. In fact, I only own ONE PAIR right now and I don't even like them.
I know, shocking, right??
I've been waiting to buy a good pair of jeans until I get my booty back into shape after having the baby. But I've been working pretty hard at that for a while now and I think I'm realizing that, well, my booty may never be the same again.
So, long story short, I neeeeeeeeeeeed this gift card so I can go buy my booty some fabulous jeans. The end.

ps. you're awfully cute. and I'm so excited you're doing a review blog!

The Beloved Sparrow said...

Wow, thats seriously exciting! I would totally love to do something like that! And not just for the free clothes...
But I love their Curvy and Always Skinny styles that are featured on the website.

My favorite pair of jeans I have ever owned {and that I currently own now} are bootleg cut jeans from Banana Republic. They fit my bottom perfectly {miracle because I have a flat little but} and they make my thundery thighs look like little skinny goddesses. Whenever I wear them I have that little extra boost.

And PS: I am all about free jeans. It makes life better.

=D

Gracie said...

Eee! You're adorable! And I just loved that video. The jeans sound so good and make me wish I could try them. Cute outfit in the first picture!

caitlyn said...

my new favorite style of jeans are boyfriend jeans. specifically the ones i found at urban outfitters. i love them paired with a cute, girly top. i've never owned a pair of gap jeans though ;)

Natali said...

My current favorites are Joe's Honey (Booty!) fit, because, well, my booty is kind of round- but I'm really excited to have my first pair of "fancy" jeans- I got them half price at Nordstrom Rack ;-) I tried on the Gap jeans after reading your post right after the event, and the long and lean actually fit me best- which is shocking, because I am anything but long and lean, hehe.

molly june. said...

why hello there, cute lil' butt in gap jeans!! can you say, boo-tay-licsious?!! holler.

oh, & my fave pair of jeans at the moment are...hmmm..my true religions..but they just ripped a ginormous hole in the knee & i am kind of bummed & kind of excited all at the same time! :)

i'm still SO sad i didn't make it to that party! thanks for rubbing it my face with your cute butt :)

Anne. said...

Current favorite pair of jeans are the Hermosa Super Skinny ones from Pac Sun. Yay for skinny jeans and an even happier yay for giveaways! I haven't really shopped at Gap for the longest time, though this might change matters, haha. Also, I've been meaning to comment this, but your wishcake blog has been at the top of my favorites since... forever! Suchhhh a fun read. :]

Unknown said...

Wow! You are so lucky.

My favorite pair of jeans are skinny, black, and have more holes than my parents are comfortable with. Everybody is begging me to throw them out but I love them. I can't throw away something that makes my butt look so good.

Awesome giveaway!
kinok2 at gmail.com

Jennifer said...

my favorite type of jean is the EXACT pair that you have on. As far as brands go, I'm either a cheapie kind of girl or an AE girl. I'll shop for hours without reading the tags just to find a pair that fits right. Seven? What does that even mean?

And I believe I need to be added to the list of bloggers that can be in LA in an hour flat and go to cooool GAP parties!

Thirteen Winks said...

Hurrah for your hollywood exclusive party!!

I would have to say my favorite jeans would always be the ones I could find that werent too short. I'm 5'10" so when I was younger there werent too many options. Lately I love the venice skinny style from PacSun. They are finally long enough and look cute.

But I must say I was tangoing with the idea of buying the boyfriend style jeans from the gap just the other day. They are super cute!

Thanks!!
carla.galway@gmail.com is my email :)

Ashley said...

Wow.
that comment from Michael Meitzler is NOT from him.

That's from me.

I was accidentally signed into Husband's blog.

So to recap,
OMFG.

I've loved Gap jeans for SOOO long.

Their Long and Lean are a consistent favorite.

However, now, I'm wearing their ESSENTIAL jeans in tall.

I am SO JEALOUS of your Gap party. Srrrrriously.

Megan said...

My favorite jeans at the moment are AE's Artist jeans. I have three pair, and I LOVE the way they fit.

I actually don't own a pair of Gap jeans. (I, too, hate shopping for jeans!) After looking through the styles, I think my favorites are Curvy and sexy boot.

Karen said...

My favorite jeans EVER were a pair of Mossimo jeans my aunt bought me when I was in Jr. High. They were my first "name-brand" jeans (back when Mossimo was in the fancy department stores)and I was convinced I was the coolest girl around. Eventually they just became worn and super comfy, and I still have them today, 18yrs later, though they're not *quite* as comfy as they used to be!! Usually, though, I rely on Express to keep me in some cuter, sexier, and less hole-y pants :)

Internet Therapy said...

I have yet to find that perfect pair of jeans. Like you, I too, am a complete cheapo when it comes to clothes which is probably the reason I lack the perfect pair. Apparently they don't carry the "perfect pair" at Ross or Marshall's, huh?

Which is why I need, need, need this gift certificate. Those skinnys you have on are fab and if I can get 'em in a size 2, then that means they are a necessity!

So you can send them to: morgan@morganhainesgraphicdesign.com

Rachel Manwill said...

My favorite jeans were the Essential Fit at the Gap, but I'm pretty sure that they discontinued them in favor of the new styles. So I definitely need that giftcard to find my new pair. Especially since I'm dropping pants sizes rapidly and will quickly be too small for all the size 10s I bought when the Essentials were on sale.

Megan said...

I love trouser jeans right now! Gap jeans are so classic. What a treat!

Kali Ramey Martin said...

I really liked the pair of skinnies too! I didn't love the washes on the other styles, but the fit is really great. I'm WAY picky when it comes to jeans. And difficult to fit. 35" inseam, a small waist and BIG OLE' BOOTY.:)

Unknown said...

Gap boot cut jeans are my *favorite*!!!

SassyCassie said...

I'm so glad you started this new blog!

I currently don't have a favorite pair of jeans :( They're too hard to find!

I'd love the gift card to go try them out though! cassie.seaman@gmaildotcom.

Andrea said...

I prefer straight leg jeans, but I keep a few pairs of bootcut ones to wear with shoes that I think look funny with straight leg jeans, like Chuck Taylors. And I have a couple pairs of skinny jeans, too. You look cute as a button in these pictures, my dear!

ALB said...

Gap Curvy jeans. Never would have tried them on but the Gap sales associate talked me into it. They really know their stuff :)

Ashley said...

I'm not sure I could rock the skinny jeans, but I guess I haven't really tried. I usually go with comfort. Jeans with a bit of stretch and bootcut. Right now my favorite is the Diva Jeans at Old Navy, wearing them right now actually!

Your party sounds aaaawesome - jealous!

Ally B said...

I love Gap jeans! All of my jeans are from Gap... but I REALLY need a new pair as the only ones that fit any more have so many holes I look, well, not so good. I like them because they have long options, which I need.

I am SO jealous of your party!

Allyb@allybspeakin.com

Ashley @ {Let Go, Laughing} said...

umm hello awesomely adorable jeans!

and i totally need new jeans right now... so bad my husband has even offered to buy them for me because he is so sick of my favorite pair!

and the Gap party sounds awesome! i used to shop at the Gap all the time but then their prices went up and i was broke in college so i stopped going there. :) still love em though!

Breanna said...

My favorite jeans are gap skinnys or bootcut! I have such a hard time finding ones longer enough too, cause I got long legs girl!

Anonymous said...

My favourite jeans right now are by Fidelity - they're super tight, trashed looking and stretchy and comfy - and look amazing with heels!

What a great giveaway!

Tiffany Zellner (tiffany.zellner@gmail.com) said...

Sounds like you had an amazing time! My favorite jeans are sold by charlotte ruse and are old school flares. I could always use more jeans though... I seem to outgrow mine pretty often!

Anonymous said...

First off, I just want to say that I love the new layout of your blogsite! And the new picture of you...GORGEOUS! :)

Now....let me READ your blog...lol! :)

Chelsea said...

i love jeans! however, i'm very short and it's always a huge task for me to find jeans that are the right length and shape. i generally prefer a more fitted jean, i suppose the skinny jean is the best type of jean for my frame. i've tried on different styles and they usually overwhelm my frame!

i'm studying to earn my degree at our university, so money is tight due to being in school. that being said, i pinch pennies when it comes to shopping. i don't like having to do it because i do enjoy shopping for clothes, but you have to do what you have to do!

i love the gap and it would be nice to add a few things to my small collection! lovely! and thank you :)

Katie said...

My current jean-love are trouser jeans because they make me feel professional when I wear them to work, yet still retain the glorious comfort of jeans. I have been wanting to explore the skinny jean phenomenon and a $50 gift card could help out with that... ;)

jessica lewis said...

Oooh, those look so great on you Kerri! I would love to win the gift card- thanks for the opportunity to enter! :)

I'm totally a skinny-jean kind of girl, but I'm not super picky about brand or anything. Usually I just shop at Target and Kohl's and if I find a pair that fits nicely, I buy them. I only have one pair of skinnies, so I would definitely love the opportunity to pick up another pair from the Gap (so I stop wearing my current ones like, three days in a row).

Brittany said...

I feel like the only girl at my college that isn't wearing the right jeans! I wear the cheap Pac Sun skinny jeans because my college kid budget is sort of puny, but the fit is awful! I am so jealous over your opportunity and I am SO excited that you're doing reviews now!

stefanie said...

My current favorite pair of jeans are a pair of skinny jeans from Esprit (it's a European store and they recently opened up a few stores over here as well, their style is similar to GAP).I didn't think I would ever wear AND even love skinny jeans. But I can't live without them anymore. Please let them never go out-of-style ever again!!!

Jummy said...

What an experience! The video cracked me up, especially Nicole's absolute delight!

And free digicam AND video cam? Show off your goodies so I can droool, please!

You run an awesome blog so it's no wonder you were chosen to throw this partay!

Molly said...

I've been enjoying your fun writing and beautiful pictures!

I'll come out of lurkdom to join along and play. My current favorite pair are sweethearts from Old Navy. I suspect they've stretched their sizes out too as I was recently, miraculously able to get a smaller size. ;o)

Erica said...

My favorite pair of jeans are Long and Lean from GAP! My legs are freakishly long (but I'm only 5'3") and these seem to be the perfect length! Plus, I love that I can fit in a size 2 (even if it is only one store) :)

ericaswalton @ mac dot com

Janssen said...

My favorite is the skinny bootcut from Charlotte Russe. Somehow it's just perfect, every time.

Becka @Studio222 Photography said...

My favorite jeans, ever, of life are my Joe's petite jeans. I had a complete OHMIGAWD moment when I slipped them on for the first time. I'm 5'3, with a big butt and short legs and have THE HARDEST time finding jeans that actually look hot and are not just me settling because I need something to wear. I recently got a hole in them and they gave me a whole other pair for free. But I still can't stop wearing the fist ones. It's kind of like finding your soul mate.

Sara said...

I love Citizens of Humanity jeans but my budget only allows for one new pair a year. I'm also a fan of Gap's curvy line. You are the second Gap brand enthusiast I've heard about. What a sweet deal!
sara.ann.jaeger@gmail.com

samantha said...

that sounds so wonderful! the perfect boot jeans are definitely my favorite! you can contact me at: samantha.seay.07@cnu.edu

Stef said...

My current favorite jeans are GAP's premium boot cut. GAP jeans are seriously the only ones that actually fit me well!

thatShortchick said...

my absolute favorite pair of jeans are dark washed, boot cuts - LOVE.

Amy --- Just A Titch said...

Gap jeans are amazing, and fit sooo well. I, however, am a broke teacher and purchase them second-hand 90% of the time. Would LOVE to go get some brand new long & leans! xo

.jimaie.marie. said...

My favorite jeans are Gap Long & Lean but I've actually never owned a brand new pair! I always buy them off ebay for MUCH cheaper than the sticker price but that's b/c they've been previously worn/loved but the upside to that is that they're already broken in right? :)
My favorite style of the new GAP jeans are the Real Straight! My body type doesn't work very well for skinny jeans so these look like the next best thing, aka the thing I've been looking for, FOR YEARS! lol!
I would LOVE to win (<--understatement!!) the $50 g/c!!

Anonymous said...

American Eagle stopped making my fave jeans (but I think they've recently started again although I haven't been in the store to check them out.) They're the AE Artist jeans. First off, they actually FIT me (. They have a bootcut but they can look like they're skinny jeans. Oh, and they're comfy. :D

Michelle said...

Wow, so cool! Gap has invented a great way to get the word out that works much better than commercials (who watches those really?). My favorite type of jeans are petites-- it's so my crack isn't hanging out! :) THANK YOU! --Michelle, blogattoday[-at]gmaildotcom

Melissa said...

Yay for your new review blog, that's awesome!

Right now it makes me giddy to think about wearing any jeans AT ALL - considering that I'm 8 months pregnant and in a couple months I'm going to have to work my butt off, literally, to fit into normal jeans again. ;)

--melissa(at)moodypeach(dot)net

Courtney said...

I use to love American eagle. AE and the GAP just fit me like a glove. Unfortunately AE changeavtheir stiles WAY too frequently so bybthe time I need a new pair they are completely different!

GAP curvy bootcut or the essential are my personal faces!

Kate said...

I've gone through lots of favourites. I guess as my body changed so did my jean love. I had a pair of American Eagle stretch jeans that I wore so much I wore out a hole in the butt!

Commenting via iPhone + boarding a plane + autocorrect and tiny keyboard = bad bad spelling!!! :)

Peace.Love.Chaos said...

So, my favorite brand of jeans are hydrolics and thats just because they are the ONLY pants I have found to fit my bootay! But I have really been wanting a pair of skinny jeans, Im just affraid I wont be able to find a pair that fits me right! So this giveaway would be perfect! :D

p.s. I heart your blog!

Unknown said...

I think I've said this before but OMG I love love love that video. It's the greatest. I am a huge fan of the Real Straight ones from Gap. Like in love, would marry them. :)

Molly said...

I am really into my skinny jeans right now. The are fitted in the leg, but don't give me muffin top. Yippie!!

Stephanie said...

I would looove new jeans!

Shelley said...

I remember back in elementary school I begged my mom to buy me a pair of Generation X jeans (anyone remember those?) because I was sick of wearing leggings all the time. They were wide leg jeans and may also have been carpenter jeans. My dad hated them... mostly because they cost a whopping $28 dollars. But I got them and loved them and I've loved jeans ever since.

Stephanie H said...

Usually I like Express regular rise flare or boot leg jeans (but recently I ventured into trouser leg)...mostly because I found out that I liked them and once I find something I have a hard time trying new things. But maybe I need to check out GAP!

hcmiller said...

Gap and Banana Republic jeans are my favorites! They fit me wonderfully and I love the dark wash bootcut styles. The new pair looks so cute on you! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

hannahcmiller(at)hotmail(dot)com

Brittany said...

My favorite jeans ever have been 7 for all mankind bootcut. They fit perfectly! Unfortunately I cannot afford them right now so I would love to try a pair of the new Gap jeans!

well let me tell you :)

i am 4' 10 and 3/4 inches tall and it is SUPER difficult to find jeans.
My favorite jeans that I've ever found were diesel jeans, style: hush. they were just perfect. and only $30 from a second hand shop. i wore them till they had holes in the knees.

love the new blog!

Woohoo fun stuff! I won jeans through Chels and Sues at We are not martha from their born to fit party giveaway. Just posted about my shopping trip yesterday!

I love your jeans! The top is very flattering as well. This is a great outfit.
