jeans, jeans and more jeans - want a new pair?

Who feels like winning a new pair of jeans!

If you've read this blog for awhile, you will know that I was fashion fairy godmother to my friends last year when I threw a jean party courtesy of Gap and their new line of jeans, Born To Fit.

You can't go anywhere without seeing these jeans. On billboards, on behinds, in last month's Lucky with a sweet new preview of what's to come. Lots. More. Jeans. In. Way. Too. Many. Washes. Than. I. Can't. Afford.

To me, jeans are staple in my wardrobe. Always have been. I need (yes, I do) to have several different styles of jeans. I need the dressy jeans - the ones perfectly molded to my body that I can wear with heels and a fitted t-shirt or dress up with another sexy tank. I have pairs that only go with certain shoes because they are longer or shorter than I'd like them to be. Then I have the skinny pairs too, you know, the trend I swore I could never get my calves into - but, I actually can. I need the perfect boyfriend pair, but I digress.

For no other reason then they knew I needed a new jean jacket, I was sent this last week and have worn it three times already to work (with different outfits of course).

It reminds me of the 80s - who knew acid wash denim could come back and still work?

While I'm not giving away the jacket (you can buy it here on sale!), I am giving away a coupon for a free pair of jeans - men or women can win. I don't want you to do a whole lot of work to win these. Winning should be easy, right?

Contest open to men and women: Tell me which pair of jeans you would buy if you won and where you would wear them. The straight in dark wash for a night out, or the always skinny or cropped in bleached wash to a bar for day drinking with friends. Leave your email address in the comment if I can't find it linked from your blog. Enter as many times as you want and another entry is awarded if you tweet:

"I just entered Allison's contest to win a kick a** pair of #gapborntofit jeans for this summer #giveaways" and link to this post. That's it.

Contest ends Thursday, June 29.

FTC listen up: No monetary compensation was accepted for this post. I was given both the jean jacket and the coupon and giving it away freely in my own contest for my faithful readers.

Party all the time

You got it - I'm quoting one of my all time favorite songs from the 80s. No one sings it like Eddie Murphy and Rick James.

Awhile back, I was approached by the lovely Justine to be a Gap enthusiast along with a few other bloggers across the country.

My first experience was a Gap shopping spree, then there was my congratulations gift from Gap and now there was a jean party.

Yes, a jean party.

After explaining it over and over to my friends, I think they finally understood the gist and, more importantly, that free jeans were in the mix for them.

Overheard at the party:
"I can really take these?"
"I don't remember Gap jeans looking like this."
"These are so soft- I love the material."
"I love this dark wash."
"Wait, do you have the ripped skinny jeans? I want those."
"Are these in stores already?"
"I should start a blog."

All the jeans lined up

Friends with the props

Chris, one of the only men, who would let me take his picture with his over-cheesy smile


my only friend who could take all three size 25!


Notice all my friends went into a bedroom to try on the jeans. Well, some boys just don't follow those rules.



In honor of my friend whipping off his jeans and showing his boxer briefs, I'm giving away one pair of jeans (it's a coupon for up to $70 at the GAP).

To enter this contest, leave a comment. That's it. Just leave a comment and I'll randomly pick the winner on Friday, August, 21. Boys can enter too!
