good jeans

I WON!  I WON!   I WON!!!!!!

I must admit I've grown very fond of elastic-waisted pants these last 9 months... but when I saw these jeans being given away over at Two Ellie... I had to leave a comment - I WANTED them BAD.  They retail for $237... and I just can't justify that, especially with a baby on the way, so I signed up to win.  When I saw the jeans... my little brain went off to daydream for a few minutes.  I instantly wanted it to be Fall!  I pictured myself in those jeans, boots, a sweater... pushing my  baby in the stroller as I sipped regular coffee.  I am so excited that I won... this totally turned my very long week into a very good one! 

THANKS PAULA & DOWNTOWNCHICK!  I am soooo grateful!

Paula is right that you are a pretty beautiful pregnant woman and you will look so great in them after the baby is born.

It is so wonderful that you are thinking about being a thin person who can wear skinny jeans post baby. Go girl go.

i'm so jealous that you're on the home stretch to your skinny jeans, and to meeting your little girl! i'm 5 1/2 months pregnant, and for some masochistic reason, i decided to try on my regular jeans the other day. not a good idea....

OHMYGOSH, YOU truly are gonna love these. i have a pair from current elliott w/ more holes and paint on them, they stretch out and get baggy but are soooo comfortable. they're usually made from vintage levi's. you'll love them for stroller and sweater walks with regular coffee!

You lucky duck! :)

Lucky, Lucky, Lucky! I've been following your BLOG... & LOVE it! You have amazing style! Thanks for sharing! I do have one little piece of advice... Wait just a little while to put those jeans on. I have a funny story, went with my mom jean shopping after my first baby was born because I really lost all my baby weight fast. I figured I needed some new jeans (no more elastic band pants... which I did love) well, I was in for a shock my hips were still wide & hadn’t come back in so I couldn't button them. Very frustrating. I was literally sweating trying to get them buttoned. I didn't try a pair of jeans on for a little while after that... So scared! I'm sure you will pop back ASAP & look gorgeous!!! Have fun in them!!

XOXO, Alexandra

My sister had a pair of these when she was pregnant and man do they look great on her. I wish I could wear one when I got pregnant.

Congratulations! That is a very gorgeous jean. I can't find it anywhere. I think it is made just for you. I wish I was the winner of that beautiful jean.
