Great news for recessionistas who love denim like I do! Premium denim doesn’t have to cost over $100! Last week Gap launched the new line, 1969 Premium Jeans, to give us the same designer fashion details, such as great fits and excellent washes, without the hefty price tag. Every pair of the new denim styles are under $70.

“With this new collection, named in honor of Gap’s debut year, we completely reworked and redesigned the jeans at every level, from design and fit to fabric, fasteners and production,” said Gap’s EVP of Design, Patrick Robinson. “Our goal was to create a range of styles that were cool, sexy and relevant for right now.”

I was intrigued to see the jeans for myself and sample them for size and shape. I suggest you to try on a couple of sizes before purchasing. The sizes run a little big, and I had to go down a size. I was really impressed with how well they fit and I loved the perfect hues for Fall. The styles range from boyfriend to long and lean cuts. My favorite is the Almost Skinny Jeans in the most-flattering dark wash. For a limited time, get $20 off a pair of 1969 jeans. With affordable prices like these, you will want to refresh your closet with these jeans. Check out the entire collection at your local Gap store or at Gap.com.

Summer may be here for now, but the beautiful shades of fall are just around the corner. Judging by the fashion trends that I have seen recently, we are in for a fabulous autumn. Of course this doesn’t mean that you need to break your bank account to look stylish. To find a great deal in fashion-forward looks, stop in at a dELia’sstore nearest you. When you try on a pair of jeans, you will receive a $10 gift voucher, good towards any item of $10 or more. The promotion runs through July 26, and does not apply to sale items. Also, all of your favorite styles are now available in destroyed washes, which are on-trend with the fall forecast. The Morgan skinny, my fav style, when worn with a plaid shirt or a cozy cardigan, is one of my top picks, and can also be layered under a cozy cardigan to carry you through the season.

No, I’m not talking about buying a new pair of jeans to ease your stress! As bargain fashionistas we are about reusing and re-inventing our clothing so that we can optimize our wardrobe. I’m always sad when I have to throw away a favorite pair of jeans due to wear and tear. That’s why I am so excited about a new site that will restore my old jeans.
