We had so much fun I didn't take that many pictures! Oops! Luckily I took some pictures before everyone arrived and we got a group shot at the end of the night.
Everyone got to try out the new premium jeans in all three styles; Always Skinny, Real Straight, and Sexy Boot.
In an effort to be fair and to make sure everyone got to try all three styles, I had all the girls fill out a card ranking the three styles and the size that fit them best. More than half of the ladies preferred the Sexy Boot, but Real Straight and Always Skinny got a lot of love too!
There was a lot of talk about the overall construction and feel of the jeans; you can really tell that all three styles are high quality. People also noted that the jeans are more on par with designer jeans than previous Gap jeans. The ladies loved how the Gap jeans have a nicer price tag than traditional designer jeans. And while all that stuff is important, I think everyone was most excited about how they looked in the jeans. There was a lot of talk about the jeans being sexy!
In addition to sending the jeans, I got some snacks, bowl, digital camera, jump drive with a short movie about the jeans, and a digital video camera! How cute are the M&M's, popcorn, and snack bowl?
Everyone received a reusable tote bag filled with a pair of jeans in their favorite style or a certificate to purchase their favorite at Gap! They all loved being able to try out the jeans and take home a pair of their choice! By the end of the night, ALL of the jeans found new homes and I am sure their owners will get a lot of great wear out of them.
I also was able to give one lucky lady, Landlocked Mermaid, a gift card for 50 dollars!
I have a bunch of jeans certificates and coupons to give away so leave a comment telling me which style you want/need! Make sure you also leave me an email address so I can contact you if you win. If you tweet or blog about the giveaway I will give you an extra entry for each. You can put all your entries in one comment. You have until Friday the 14th at 12pm to enter!
Ooh can Canadians enter? We have GAP up here too :p anyway I'd like to think that I would go for the straight legged pants, but I think I'd end up buying the boot cut ones because, you know - they fit over your shoes moreso than the straight legged one's. So, that's what I'd choose if I do happen to win (I never win anythingggg!) :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck all! Yay!
looks like you all had a great time...grrrrr for no sitters for me!
ReplyDeleteThe sexy boot sounds awesome!
I love the bowls...so cute!
looks like a great party! would love to try the straight legged style myself.
ReplyDeletehmmm did my comment get eaten?? anyway, i was saying congrats on a great party. I would love some sexy boot jeans but wish I could pull off the skinny jeans! Did everyone get a flip camera too?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun! I love that you're real life friends now with a lot of the girls from the DC blog meetup! I think the Sexy Boot style would be best for me.
ReplyDeleteWow.. I wish I could have made it! I'm so busy with the wedding planning, so I just couldn't make it work in my schedule.
ReplyDeleteI love that you're giving those of us that couldn't make it a chance to win! I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE the sexy boot cut!
Am I allowed to comment on how much fun I had and how much I loved these jeans? I'd love to get another pair in a short size :)
ReplyDeleteAww I see some of my fab DC girls in that first photo :)
ReplyDeleteAww, that is so very cool. I love me some sexy boot jeans! They fit perfect! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI had such a fun time! Thank you again for inviting me :) It's always nice to see you.
ReplyDeleteYay! Great giveaway! I want the Sexy boot style. I look best with a little curve to my jeans. How fun!

I'd love a pair of the sexy boot cut!
ReplyDeleteHoly crap these jeans are taking DC by storm.
ReplyDeleteI love the jeans - I think I'd like the skinny jeans but the boot legged jeans are always a classic style. I will need to hit up the Gap in MD sometime soon! Love the pictures!
ReplyDeletethat looks so fun! Do those styles come in long? I need to meet you dc bloggers someday
ReplyDeleteOooh fun! I saw brand about town on someone else's blog and I was def wondering what it's all about. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try the sexy boot cut! I'll post this on my blog btw :)

So many people are talking about these Gap Brand About Town, and now I'm really intrigued by these new Gap jeans. I hate shopping for jeans and have lived in the same pair for almost 4 years - which was acceptable back when I lived in Florida and only wore jeans occasionally. Up here in D.C. though, I need some jeans in my life!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try the boot cut or the long and lean. I struggle to find jeans long enough for me, but I've heard good things about that cut from other Brand About Towners.
By the way, your party sounds like it was so much fun! I hope you enjoyed yourself!

wow, i haven't tried Gap jeans on in probably a century. the last time i loved them it was their bootcut that fit me better than any other brand... then they went and skinnied out all their jeans so even their bootcut hugged the ankle, not cool Gap, not cool.
ReplyDeletei'd love to give their Sexy Boot another chance though : )
Sounds like a great night!!! I would love to be entered.

This looks like so much fun!!! I wish Bloomington had a Gap (can you believe we freaking don't???!) so I could check out all the new fun stuff. Le sigh.
ReplyDeleteVery cool that you got all of that stuff! I liked the Gap-branded M&Ms myself.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for including me! It was way fun. :)
The Gap recently discontinued my favorite cut of jeans ever, the Essential. I'm so bummed! I think the Sexy Boot would work for me. Skinny jeans never fit me, because well, I'm not skinny, I'm curvy. Great idea for a giveaway!
ReplyDeleteskinnies or boot cut for sure.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually wearing my new Gap, curvy dark wash boot cut jeans that I purchased last night and I.LOVE.THEM. They are so comfortable!!
ReplyDeletethat is fan-freakin-tastic! looks like yall had sooo much fun! ps: sexy boot :)
ReplyDeleteI always love the Gap's boot cut jeans. I can't wait to try the sexy boot!

ReplyDeleteSexy boot.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I can't believe you are all moved-in and hosting a party already! You are a rock star. Secondly, I'm going to the GAP to look at these jeans - I've heard so many good things about them and I can't wait. I think I'd like the Sexy Boot Cut the best!

Totaly want to try the sexy boot now (maybe it'll give me a sexy booty?).
ReplyDeleteMy email is beachbumatheart@gmail.com
I would L-O-V-E the sexy boot or the real straight.
ReplyDeleteThe party sounds like it was so much fun! Wish I were closer to you, I so would've come :)

I'd love the sexy boot or maybe the always skinny. Got some junk in the trunk but I think Gap allows for a little of that ! Can't wait to try them on !
ReplyDeletesassariffic@hotmail.com
What a fun concept! How did you get the chance to host this? I'd love to hear the details (itiseverlasting at gmail dot com)! I am in serious need of new jeans as my size is getting smaller -- woohoo! I think the Sexy Boot sound fab.
ReplyDeleteGap is doing a great job with their marketing. It's obvious they want honest feedback from bloggers. I've always said that I would trust what a real person says over a magazine any day!
ReplyDeleteI have a Gap outlet near my house. Hopefully these jeans will turn up there in a few months. I want some Sexy Boots!
I'm pregnant now, but will definitely be needing to revamp the wardrobe in just a couple of months. New jeans would be fantastic! Sexy boot cut, please :) [Etoile484(at)aol(dot)com]
ReplyDeleteReal straight or boot cut are my favorites but I think I'll head to the Gap and try them on this week and see what's best. Thank you for hosting this giveaway! : )
ReplyDeleteShelleyastafford(at)yahoo(dot)com

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun party!! I love love love gap jeans and am certainly intrigued by this new line, since I can't seem to find my old GAP jeans online! boo GAP boo! I thinking the Sexy Boot ones are right up my alley!

ReplyDeleteLet's try this again- The sexy boot! Thanks! (juliemu5@hotmail.com)
ReplyDeleteI want the long and leans! When I tried them on at the store I was two sizes under what I normally buy! What a happy moment :)
ReplyDeleteI'd LOVE the long & lean or sexy boot cut!!! Looks like you had a GREAT party!! I actually just moved from DC to New Hampshire and got married myself - so I can totally relate to your blog!
ReplyDeletechach77@gmail.com
I've heard a bunch of people mention what the sexy bootcut does for their butt. Sooo...Since my butt needs A LOT of help, that's the style I'd choose.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth (dot) Tull (at) yahoo.com
I would love the sexy bootcut style.
ReplyDeletenotreallybloggingmaterial(AT) gmail (dot) com
I would like to try the real straight style. I'm also going to blog about this!
ReplyDeletelawgirl329@gmail.com
Wow, sounds like a great time! I would have to choose the sexy boot cut style because I'm a little bit more curvy - no skinnies for me!
