Gap has been heavily advertising a new selection of jeans in August magazines featuring models Sasha Pivovarova, Isabeli Fontana, Constance Jablonski, Shu-Pei, Jasmine Tooks and Anja Rubik (shown below) in a “Born To Fit – America’s Best Fitting Premium Jeans” campaign. The jeans look pretty good! But how couldn’t they, I suppose, with those models!
She is wearing the Zip Crop Always Skinny Jean. These seem to be sold out online right now, but a similar jean with cool zip pockets is still available for $69.50. (Always Skinny Zipper Pocket Jeans)
They’re also featuring a lot of legging jeans, aka jeggings! Yikes, I guess this was bound to happen. I’ve never tried these on, so I won’t comment yet. Here’s what they say about them: “Meet our new denim leggings. They’re super skinny, supersoft, and have the perfect dose of stretch for an incredibly smooth finish”. This pair (below) is the Legging Jean in Faded Dark Wash, $69.50. I guess they don’t look that much different than your standard fitted skinny jeans, I assume they have more stretch in them…
Anyway, here’s the scoop on the new jeans:
- redesigned to fit true to size similar to standard designer jeans
- premium stretch denim jeans retains its shape
- the water used in the process of washing and dyeing these jeans has been specially treated to ensure it is safe and clean when it leaves the factory -

I wouldn’t say that I’m a fan per se of Kim Kardashian, I’ve never watched the show she’s on… but I do really like this outfit! And I think it’s an outfit nearly anyone can wear and look great in. So classic – a white tee, boyfriend jacket and torn up jeans – and for adding a twist to the classic – the lace up Christian Louboutin sandals.
The particular sandals she’s wearing are sold out. If you want to stay with Louboutins, these have a similar look: Christian Louboutin Pique 140 Sandals, $995
Another option are these Tory Burch Roslun Lace Up Sandals, $425. The lace up style is more similar to the ones Kim is wearing – and they’re half the price!
For the jacket, the key is to get one with nice lining inside the sleeves so you can roll them up for a more casual look. J. Crew has an option that’s even on sale right now. Boyfriend Blazer, regular price $215, sale $175.
For the denim, of course there are tons of choices, the best is probably already in your closet. But if you don’ t have any torn jeans yet, here are a couple of good options.
J. Crew Vintage Slim Jeans, regular price $98, sale $78.
I also love AG brand for distressed jeans. I definitely recommend trying them on a store though, the sizing across the different cuts can be quite different. Here’s an option Tomboy Boyfriend-Fit Jeans in 25 year destroyed wash, $305.
The tee is the easiest part. Again, you probably have several in your closet already. Hers has a somewhat low scoop neck. A Petit Bateau Light Fine Rib Tank, $39 or Spendid ($40) or James Perse ($45) tank would work well too.
