By: Jessica B.

That’s right, if you’re joining me from my regular blog, you know that I’m doing a little giveaway for my readers thanks to Brand About Town and the Gap.

I have two coupons to giveaway, each good for one free pair of Gap jeans. That’s right, a free pair of jeans.

This coupon is good in-stores only and can be applied toward any of the following styles:

And because I’m all about presentation, you’ll actually receive the coupon in an adorable Gap “Born To Fit” canvasy bag.

Isn’t that cute? Each of my party guests got one so I wanted to save some for my readers too that couldn’t be there.

How to enter: Leave a comment below telling me why you want or need a new pair of jeans, or if you’re a Gap jeans fan, what style is your favorite. Only one entry per e-mail address too.

You can also receive an additional entry if you tweet about the giveaway using the hashtag #borntofit. If you do tweet about it, please leave a link to your profile in the comments too so I can verify it (no offense).

Giveaway closes on Friday, August 7.

Good luck! I’ll be back shortly with a full review of some Gap jeans too.

    in an effort to not totally embarrass myself and my brother when i’m in his wedding in september, i have been dieting and have lost 27 (!) pounds….

    thus…my jeans don’t fit anymore.

    so please…oh please! pick me!
    (plus….GAP has the BEST long jeans for my tall self)

  2. Maki says:

    I can’t have enough jeans – I love denim and JT doesn’t understand why I have so many pairs….

    I tend to like skinny for the day time occasion and bootcut for the night time affair.

    Pick me, Jess! :D
    xoxo

  3. Kate says:

    I looove Gap jeans but have been on a major budget lately. I really need new jeans and would love to win a pair!

  4. Jennifer says:

    I would love to try the perfect boot cut!

  5. Wow, it’s been years since I’ve had a pair of Gap jeans, I’d love to let them lure me back with a free pair. ;) I really like the look of the Perfect Boot Jeans in the Dark Wash. I’m short and a little poochy in the middle and the wide waistband would be perfect.

  6. Emily says:

    because currently, the only pair of jeans I own has a button that keeps popping off (the one to secure them shut!) and I keep reattaching it and pounding it with a hammer…. over and over again. Going on 1 month like this….

    What an awesome giveaway!!
    I’ve never been able to afford to buy a new pair of GAP jeans so the ones I have are all used from Ebay (which is cool since theyre already broken in) BUT I would LOVE to be able to get a brand spankin new pair!
    At the moment Long & Lean are my very fav but I think the Sexy Boot are really cute and would love to try them!!
    I heart jeans.

  8. Erin says:

    I gained three stinking pounds and now my favoritest jeans don’t fit comfortably. It makes me impossibly sad. I want to feel cute in a pair of good-fitting Gap jeans! A free pair would cheer me up ever so much. I might even forget about the three pounds, pretend they went to my chest instead of my butt.

  9. Rebekah says:

    I need a pair of Always Straight because I just bought a pair and they are the only jeans I own that fit. So obviously I need two.

    Or, I could motivate myself by promising you that I’ll wait to use the coupon until I am a size down, because I am going to get all fit and trim. Someday.

  10. I used to work at the Gap and I really miss that discount! I would LOVE to win a pair of jeans. Right now I have a couple pairs of jeans that I absolutely love and I just wear them over and over and over again … so it would be great to add another pair to the rotation. Especially because my absolute favorite pair just developed too many holes to wear. When I worked at the Gap my favorite style was the “slim” fit and now I’d love to try out the “always skinny” fit. Thanks for the contest!

  11. Well, I definitely need a new pair of jeans because the only pair I own that fits me well is too short. I look like I’m wearing high-water jeans which is never attractive or stylish. These “long and lean” jeans intrigue me… will I be able to actually wear heels with my jeans? What a novel idea!

  12. Kristin says:

    I have several pairs of much more expensive jeans and the denim has already worn in and is practically see-through in the rear. Forget that! I’d love some quality jeans that are going to last me. I trust that these GAP ones are the best!

  13. Sarah says:

    All I wear are Gap jeans! And I need a new pair because they just re-launched their jeans line and I want to see what it’s all about. I usually go with Long and Lean (even though they’re a bit too long, but whatever), but I’d love to try a new fit.

  14. Short answer: My mom took a pair of my jeans, and now I only have one pair of jeans that I can actually wear.

    Long answer: I only have one pair of jeans that I can actually wear, and where I work, it’s jeans and a t-shirt every day. There’s only so many days in a row I can wear the same pair of jeans!

    Also, I am kinda broke (or getting there – hi, $2200 in my bank account, meet new hearing aid) and free jeans from Gap, whose jeans have always fit me well would be so lovely.

  15. Ashley says:

    I love Gap’s Long & Lean jeans. Being 6′ tall can pose a problem when searching for the perfect pair of jeans. I’m a huge fan of these jeans b/c they’re long enough for me, but still look like women’s jeans should. A lot of brands think long jeans = men’s jeans and I don’t want anything that makes me look boxy. Love, love, love the Long & Leans!

  16. Kyla Roma says:

    Dear Jessica,

    I need a pair of new Gap Jeans for a very serious reason. After defending my addiction to 80′s style high rise skinny jeans up and down the internet, I’ve finally relented. When I was in Minneapolis this weekend I bought a boot cut jean and it’s changed me, lady. I’m keeping my skinny jeans for boots but the straight leg is SO much more flattering.

    I’m in recovery. I’m dying for a pair of their Perfect Bootcut so I don’t look like a 13 year old emo boy anymore. Please help. =)

  17. Kate says:

    Any chance they’re giving away Essential styles? Those are my favorite! They fit me really well, plus Gap makes their jeans (and so many other items) in short sizes for people like me. Yay!

    Oh, I also tweeted about this: http://twitter.com/absolutkatydid.

  18. I’ve actually only just discovered that The Gap and I are friends. I used to think that nothing they had fit me… then I figured out what size I was at The Gap. And while I now own a plethora of Gap clothing, jeans alas are not a part of my Gap collection. I only have two pairs of jeans that *really* fit. And they are boot cut.

  19. Erin says:

    Does it apply to us Canadians?
    If so, I must tell you that almost all of my jeans are GAP jeans, and I wear jeans on a daily basis. I love the Curvy fit – not too high and not too low, fits my curves just right!

  20. Steph says:

    Okay all my freaking jeans SHRINK when I wash them! I need some jeans that will stay nice and long so that I can wear them with heels. Because I am sooo tired of wearing flats.

  21. Doniree says:

    I’ve actually never owned GAP jeans, so I’d be super excited to give ‘em a shot. I need new jeans because I lost weight this year (yay!) and dropped a full size. I’ve since gotten rid of a couple of great pairs of jeans that don’t fit any more. Most in need of replacement? Skinny or straight leg jeans!

    I’ll tweet this… hold plz…

  22. Jamie says:

    I love Gap jeans. Long and lean are the way to go. without stretch that is.

    I’ll also be tweeting this-@JAMcCandless

  23. Elizabeth says:

    I live in jeans! I’m a photographer, so I go through jeans in record time with all of the awkward squats and angles I have to get into. I’m always looking for a sturdier pair, and I haven’t had a pair of Gap jeans in years, but they look pretty hardy!

  24. E.P. says:

    I’ve been a GAP jeans fan since I hit puberty. For whatever reason, I have always had great luck with their jeans, and I think most of the pairs in my closet are GAP brand.

    The thing is, I wear jeans a lot for my job. Currently, a lot of my favorite pairs are getting worn around the edges (including some unsightly holes.) I continue wearing them for now, but I have a feeling I will be needing some replacements soon, hah. The Long and Leans and the Perfect Boot cut jeans are my favorites.

  25. thegirlin3k says:

    Recently, my favorite pair of jeans busted in the most inappropriate place: the butt. Thankfully I was at home but I was rushing out the door for a date. I thank the sweet Lord that it happened then and not 10 minutes later when I would have been known as the girl who no longer had a date or as the girl who gave all the wrong signs on a first date. Now I need to find a favorite new pair and I have a feeling that a free pair of Gap jeans could easily take their place! :-)

  26. Pam says:

    Oh dear, I guess my response is a bit late. Darn vacation! Good thing I’m in under the deadline!

    I need jeans. Badly. Especially a pair of cute, comfy, wear-with-flats jeans. I usually wear one of the two pairs of the EXACT same everyday Express jeans (Stacey and Clinton would kill me). I thought they were cute. And then I caught sight of my reflection a couple weeks ago. I realized my “favorite” jeans (yes, both pairs) are now misshapen, baggy in the knees, WAY too short (we’re talking above the ground in flip flops) and one hundred percent unflattering. Now I’m embarrassed to wear them.

    A hot new pair of jeans would be amazing. And surely trusty Gap jeans won’t stretch out and get saggy like my old ones. So in conclusion—vote for Pam! Yay jeans!

  27. Rachel M. says:

    I’m interviewing for my dream job and trying to buy a house so I want to look good for when I through a celebration party (which I will of course invite you to)……or I promise to be quiet around you the next time we hang out if I get the jeans.

  28. Julianne says:

    I just rediscovered Gap jeans and need to replace my old, tattered jean wardrobe. The curvy style is my favorite.

  29. Yvonne says:

    I’ve always liked Gap jeans and I always need new jeans since I live in them at work! Love bootcut the best!

  30. mickie says:

    I used to be a Gap Jeans person. Then it seemed they changed the style. You either had to be Straight or Curvy. Somehow it they didn’t seem to fit right. I’m hoping the new ones they come out fit great. I do miss shopping for affordable Jeans!

  31. Bing says:

    I want to try out some of the new Gap styles. I haven’t bought jeans from Gap in a few years, but I love how they were always extra long. A big plus for the tall chicas! Plus you can never have too many jeans! =)

  32. Megan says:

    I am an original Gap girl. My favorite $4.00 jeans from Target are looking sad and I need some new Gap jeans to help my tired look!

  33. Nora says:

    I’m a long & lean girl. I have had the same pair of Long & Lean jeans from the GAP for over four years so that alone is a reason why I need a new pair of jeans. I have several other pairs of jeans, but lately I don’t feel like any of them fit me the right way or look the way I want them to.

    Plus, a girl can’t ever have too many pairs of jeans, can she?

  34. Adriana says:

    A free pair of jeans?!?! Sign me up! I am holding on to an old pair (ca.2004) of long and lean jeans that hit the right curves and have been in denial about the need to let them go. The Gap doesn’t make them in the same wash anymore!

  35. stealthnerd says:

    Omg, I am in dire need of new jeans! I LIVE in denim and b/c of a slight chapstick addiction, I completely wrecked the pocket on my favorite pair of skinny jeans. Seriously, you know that tobacco ring that cowboys get? I have that. But it’s chapstick. So this girl could totally use some new skinnies in her life!!

  36. KC says:

    I need a new pair of jeans because I just lost 12 lbs over the past 4 months! AND I’m a pretty big Gap jeans fan! I also tweeted about this @kristybabe.

    Thanks!!

  37. Melissa Caldeorne says:

    Because I love all things that start with B – butter – BBQ – butterflies – basil -burgers- blue jeans – beer- brunette -boys – baseball and butterflies…just to name a few.

  38. Shannon says:

    This girl needs some jeans. and quick. I’ve lost 94 lbs this year. Don’t worry, I’m not holding my big pants up in front of me a la Jared from Subway. I may have had a bonfire with big pants. So yes, please send pants of the smaller variety. thanks!

  39. Kara says:

    I’m in the market for a good pair of jeans because at the beginning of the summer I had to throw away my very favorite pair of jeans, which I bought in college probably before I knew you. ;-)

    Addtionally, I’ve lost a bunch of weight recently and need jeans that actually stay up.

    And lastly, I’ve am a ‘What Not to Wear’ junky and have come to realize that my jeans are no longer age appropriate and I virtually own no jeans that have a dark wash to them. While I’d love to have have the opportunity to spend $5k in NY and get a hair/makeup make over, I’d be pretty humiliated if my friends followed me around collecting secret footage, and I was actually choosen!

  40. ashley says:

    I wore Gap jeans religiously in high school and would like to try them again! I have a bunch of Gap pants but no jeans :(

  41. cassie says:

    I need a new pair because I literally have one (1!) pair of jeans that fit me…and they’re from GAP so clearly I need more!

  42. Erica says:

    I want a pair of new GAP jeans because I just lost 10 pounds and my old jeans are starting to not fit! I love GAP jeans–I have three or four pairs of them in my closet right now! I especially love their curvy fit pants because they make my tush look fantastico! :-)

  43. Rhey says:

    I need new jeans because my others are no longer fitting well and/or falling apart. I would love to try GAP jeans, I have never worn them before.

  44. Katie says:

    Oh! This is a fun giveaway! I hope I win, because I’ve finally decided to get with the skinny jean trend so I think I need a pair of the Always Skinny ones.

  45. Jackie says:

    I’ve never worn Gap jeans, but after seeing the pics on your blog… I’m definitely going to try some on! I am in desperate need of jeans. My weight has fluctuated something crazy this past year. My skinny jeans don’t fit me (I mean skinny in the sense of not fat – not the style.) But my regular jeans are way too stretched out in the leg/butt area. I only have one pair that fits, and I love them, but one pair of jeans? For a girl that changes her clothes 3 times a day?? Not happening…

  46. kristin says:

    oops! i tweeted it too…

  47. kristin says:

    oooh! a GAP jeans giveaway! seriously…gap jeans are the only jeans that i wear. but since i’ve been jobless for 8 months, buying a new pair has not been in the budget. this would be awesome! a great pair of jeans goes a long way for a woman! i love the curvy jeans in a dark wash because they look good on EVERYONE. seriously. i also LOOOVE the real straights…they elongate my short legs (i’m 5 feet, so anything that elongates gets a plus in my book).

    crossing my fingers for this one!

  48. BrokeHipster says:

    I’ve RT’d this. I hope I win!

    also, if you’re ever having an event where there is free stuff, please let me know and I’ll get the word out.

  49. bianca says:

    oooo yay!!! I totally need new jeans because I’ve been losing weight (yay!) and my old jeans just don’t cut it anymore. I’ve always been a fan of Gap’s jeans. I like the boot cut but recently I’ve been trying straight and skinny styles.

  50. bFlat says:

    I’ve never tried gap jeans but I would definitely try the Perfect Boot style.

  51. Heather says:

    Lately I have been having really bad body image issues. I’ve gained quite a bit of weight and I am in the process of turning my life around. I would love to have a new pair of Gap -boyfriend jeans (my favorite cut) to go with my brand new body and brand new outlook.

    Thank you so much for this opportunity!

    P.s I’m tweeting about it here– http://www.Twitter.com/everyydayy

  52. I worked outside for all 3 of my most recent jobs. For those, I needed good, sturdy jeans that could get beat up and dirty. Now I’m going to grad school and could use a pair of nice, fashionable jeans. Need to make sure all those freshmen think their TA is stylin, ya know? Right now I only have one pair of Gap jeans, and I loooove them.

  53. Lucy says:

    I just had a baby 7 weeks ago, so I’ve spent the last several months in maternity jeans. Sexy…

    Now that I’ve lost most of my baby weight I need new jeans. Help a new mom out! :)

  54. emily says:

    I am a huge fan of Gap jeans, especially Long and Leans. For some reason, even though I am neither long nor lean, they always fit really well. I’m moving in less than a month to a new school in a new city with only one pair of jeans that fit so a new pair would definitely help with first impressions on the first day of class.

  55. Jessica says:

    Oh man, I need a new pair of jeans bad. I legit have one pair that I like and I can’t seem to find more! <3

  56. i am a huge gap jeans fan! i love the curvy boot cut as they are my favorite! and i need new jeans as i have 1 pair i wear out, and 2 that are just wear around the house.so i need a few new pairs and all i want are gap jeans as they just fit me soo well! and gap jeans are the best!

  57. Everything I wear comes from Gap. Right now I have on a shirt and shorts from there! I usually buy the curvy jeans, but I’d love to try on the new cuts–I didn’t know they had them!

  58. DT says:

    I live for the Long and Lean Jeans. I happen to be built just that way, long and lean, and the gap jeans of this style are the best fit at a great price point. They are the type of jeans where I need to buy a pair (or two) in every color so I will always have the right jean to throw on at a moments notice :)

  59. jenn says:

    i swear by GAP jeans. They are all I wear! My favorite pair that I wear all the time is limited edition (I don’t think they’re available anymore) but I love their bootcut and boyfriend jeans because they’re just the perfect amount of stretchy. I’m short, and their jeans fit me well because I can wear them with heels – and if I roll them up – the light inside looks super cute rolled up against the dark wash of the outside! :)

  60. Natalie says:

    I love the Long and Lean Jeans! No matter what my size has been, these jeans have always made me feel great!

  61. Jen says:

    I have a really hard time finding jeans that fit well, so I would love to try the curvy fit.

  62. miss. chief says:

    I’ve been a student for the past six years and am subsequently broke. Get this: I have NO JEANS! And I can’t afford new ones.

    The last pair I had were GAP brand, and I practically lived in them. I wore holes through them and patched them so many times.

    Now they are shorts, covered in patches and I still wear them! (haha)

    I think jeans are something everybody needs, as kind of a casual wardrobe staple, and they would save me tons of time on those days when I just can’t decide what to wear.

  63. Sara says:

    I’ve always been a fan of the long & lean line. I am constantly in search of the perfect jean, especially now that I’m a size bigger (grrrr).

  64. Ari says:

    I’d love a new pair of jeans because I’ve lost a substantial amount of weight over the past year and am currently down to one pair of jeans. I’ll probably go for the perfect boot or sexy boot, but I wouldn’t mind a pair of skinnies for my new knee-high boots (my calves are finally small enough!).

  65. Moonjava says:

    I would love to win a pair of GAP jeans, my fave would have to be the Perfect Boot. I live in jeans, and for me, the shortie with short legs, good ones are hard to find! A lot of my current jeans are getting worn out, so I’ve been trying to steel my nerves and splurge on a few replacement pairs.

  66. Hemant says:

    I teach high school kids. My jeans are *so* not cool. And if I have Gap jeans, I will become more popular. They will also like me more and, thus, not be evil during the school year.

    Do I win? Score.

  67. Arielle says:

    Awhile ago I bought a pair of Gap Curvy jeans and I have NEVER owned a pair of jeans that looked as good on me as these did. I loved them dearly and then one day they got a massive hole, and I had to retire them. I have since replaced them but their replacements are just not the same (and all my other pairs of jeans are disgusting, seriously). I need a new pair of Curvies. Stat.

  68. Jess says:

    I need new jeans because I’m down one pants size from when I bought jeans in January – all of my jeans are too big and I’m swimming in them! I wish I had a new pair but I just can’t afford the splurge right now – this would be AWESOME to win!

  69. well, I’ve never owned a pair of Gap jeans and, I think, that if I won this offer I would become an instant fan. Especially since I always hear other girls raving about gap jeans.
