Thanks to AT&T U-Verse, and the $50 Visa gift card they sent us (me), Saturday I was on a mission to find/purchase new jeans.
Problem:
1. I have long (semi-slender) legs
+
2. I have junk in the trunk
=
3. Jeans shopping is almost my least favorite adventure.....EVER.
My first stop was a failure....as usual Express did not have my size.
Second stop, Von Maur, was a fluke and a failure (Kitty had to drop a pair of heels at the Cobbler for repair....thus we went to Von Maur whilst waiting)....I'm just mentally not ready to plop down $175.00-$200.00 for a pair of jeans.
Third time really is a charm! (and at the most unlikely of places)
On a whim I decided to stroll through The Gap.
Background info:
In the past, jeans from The Gap have been down right stupid (for me). The designers apparently think I have "a package" and therefore make the inseam especially looooooonnnng on their jeans. Um, no thank you I do not want to appear to not only have junk in the trunk but also in the front!!!! It's really a strange site to see.
Well, imagine my surprise when I slip into a pair of dark, low-rise, skinny jeans and they look smashing!
Well done Gap, well done.
(doesn't it sound strange to say "Gap" and not "The Gap"????)
Added Bonus:
They had a special going....spend $75 and get $20 off your purchase. The jeans were $69.99 so I picked up a pair of $6.99 boxers for Stone and my total ended up at $60.00!!!
Sadface:
Due to me grabbing the wrong size boxers Stone's little surprise was a failure.
It's OK:
Kev (Kitty's boy toy) just so happened to wear the size of boxers I grabbed therefore he got a little surprise.....that we pretended was from Kitty and not me....kind of strange to buy your friend's boyfriend new boxers. hee hee!
random bit:

Glad you found a great pair of jeans. Buying jeans is a right mission... I'm slender but with a disporportionately large derriere! I've only heard good things about Gap jeans (we've always called it Gap here, ha!) - I'll have to go there soon.
Nothing beats a great pair of jeans! (I've also bought the wrong size of boxers recently. He was not happy that I thought he was a size small, lol!)
Yep, heard about Saturday too. It appears it's the end of an era, and I'm sad about it. We had some good times. ::wipes away tear::
