Gap Jeans - Product Review

Let me just say...... having a baby changes your body! No matter how much you think "Oh, I am not going to gain any extra weight while pregnant" or "I am going to work out like crazy & lose the weight right away after he/she is born" or whatever you may have thought, it unfortunately doesn't always work out that way. At least it didn't for me. I am sure it has to do with my penchant for sweets, lack of motivation to make time to work out or any other number of reasons. But even with that aside, even if 15 months after the birth of my son I wasn't still 15 pounds over my pre-pregnancy weight, things still shift & move to different locations. I am convinced of this! I spent the first 14 months after having Myles trying to wear the same brands & sizes of jeans I did before him. And every time I got dressed, I was irritated with how I looked. It is very much my plan to lose the remaining weight, but I knew I needed clothes for now as well.
I asked around and many people told me "Gap Jeans" were the way to go. I had never really shopped at Gap. In my younger & pre-baby years I had worn jeans from Hollister, American Eagle, Abercrombie & Express. But after having Myles all those jeans gave me major muffin top, the lovely crack when bending over to pick up toys or pick up my little guy and that is just not the look I was going for. So for any of you wanting amazing looking & functioning jeans, without going for the "Mom Jeans" (complete with a 9 inch zipper!) I say go to Gap!!

These are the ones I bought:

And might I add, I love them all!
The Sexy Boot cut are the first pair I got and then on Black Friday I went and snatched up the other two pair. I have only worn the Sexy Boot cut & the Always Skinny so far.
The SBC I wore on Thanksgiving day, so I wore them sitting a lot. We had a 3 hour round trip car ride plus hanging out on Thanksgiving. I was in them probably about 9 hours & I must say nothing stretched weird, got baggy, no gaping (You know, in the back, at the waistband) and best of all NO MUFFIN TOP!!  I also wore them Friday & Saturday and they still were retaining great shape! I love them! The AS I only wore one day but they were awesome too! I love having a pair of skinny jeans to tuck into my tall boots in the fall & winter but having them be comfortable and also no muffin top!
So while they are not the cheapest you can find, they are in my opinion worth every dollar. SBC, LAL are both $59.50 and the AS were $69.50. Of course I got better deals being the savvy shopper that I am!
