Gap Premium Denim

It was the ads that drew me in and the fit that landed me at the register of my local Gap picking up two of Patrick Robinson's premium denim styles for Fall 2010. The man is a genius and the fit on these jeans is amazing. Not to mention the price. Hello, a great pair of jeans for under $80! My favorite? The Legging Jean and the Skinny Jean with Zipper Detail. Worth checking out.

The Denim Report

Most girls will pay a small fortune for the perfect pair of jeans. It just takes one to transform your wardrobe right? As one of said girls, I’m on a constant quest to round out my ever-evolving denim collection. After logging hours of online shopping followed by hours spent in dressing rooms around SCAL, I finally narrowed it down to these five styles. They fit beautifully and feature details and finishes that set them apart from the pack.

Best Skinny: Current/Elliot Moto Jean in Overcast Pair with a sheer black tee, structured blazer and ankle booties for an effortless date night outfit.

Best Legging: J Brand 9601 The Deal Legging in Pitch Super lightweight denim with a lot of give. Add boyfriend shirt + your favorite flat boots for the perfect weekend uniform.

Best Wide Leg: 7 for All Mankind Ginger Jean In Mercer My every day denim. The high waist and fitted trouser cut elongates the leg and is a great foundation for a delicate top or slouchy tee and fitted jacket.

Best Cropped: Victoria Beckham Waxed Jean Both elegant and edgy, this is party denim at it’s best. Wear it with a draped jersey top, statement jewelry and platform heels.

Best Luxe: Balmain Leather-Optic Biker Jean OBSESSED. These are the ultimate in directional denim and sexier than hell. If I were to be so lucky to own these, I’d go head-to-toe with Balmain’s studded tank and tuxedo blazer. A girl can dream right?
