Okay, I loved reading those comments. In fact, it took everything in my power not to create a Gap Born To Fit/Whoorl Reader pie chart with pretty colors and percentages detailing everyone’s favorite style choices. Wouldn’t that have been the COOLEST? No? Just me, then?
Thanks for all of the compliments on the boyfriend jeans too. I was so happy to add something new to my denim collection instead of my go-to skinny, bootcut and trouser styles.
However, I couldn’t help myself, you guys. I was passing through the Gap a couple of days ago and saw the Perfect Boot. Now, I tried on the Sexy Boot style at the Gap party and it just wasn’t working for me, so I shrugged off the Perfect Boot style without trying it on. I figured the “mid-rise” was probably too high or something. Boy, was I wrong. (I love it when that happens!)
Ladies, this style is fantastic. The mid-rise works well with my long torso and smaller waist, and I just love the two-button detail on the front. The back pockets are nicely placed – not too close together, not too far apart, and a good size. All in all, I snatched these babies up pronto.
The front.
The back.
(Hello, I’m Sarah’s ass! Pleasure to meet you! Criiinge.)
Confession time. When I learned of the new Born To Fit styles, I didn’t have very high expectations. Gap jeans have NEVER worked well on my body type in the past, and J Brand, Citizens of Humanity and Joe’s Jeans have always been my mainstays. (Very unfortunate for my wallet, I know.) You guys, I am so excited to have found a brand of jeans that look good AND are significantly less than the designer jeans I’ve been wearing. Huzzah!
Enough about my new jean crush. Let’s announce the winners of the Gap gift certificates!
DRUMROLL, PLEASE.
The winners are #2 and #304!
#2 – Chelsea
#304 – Jennifer R
Congratulations, ladies. Your gift certificates will be on the way shortly!

September 1, 2009 at 8:49 amOh, those jeans are cute too! I somehow missed them when I stopped by the Gap the other day, though I did end up purchasing a pair of the long and lean fit, which is fun because I’m rather short and don’t consider myself “lean.” And, I love them! They’re super casual, and actual make me look rather long and lean, who would have thought?

September 1, 2009 at 7:57 pmI am so loving The Gaps new collection of jeans. They have been on sale too, so I snatched up three pairs. I like the Long and Lean best. Perfect for a pear shaped girl like myself. You are rocking those jeans Sarah!

September 25, 2009 at 1:52 pmOkay, so I tried on two different styles in three sizes today and it was a total bust. I tried the Perfect Boot and Sexy Boot and neither looked good in any size. I am a 4 / 6, but have muscular legs.
I need help! But, thank you for telling about them. They look great on you!
