i love me some DL1961

No wardrobe is complete without a great pair (or two) of jeans.

The quest to find the perfect pair often leaves you feeling depressed and in need of a stiff drink. You know what I'm talking about. If you don't - go away - you make me sick.

I was the denim buyer for a boutique for years - we helped people find their dream jeans. And in all the piles of denim we sold, only a few brands won my heart. My very favorite jeans are from a small denim company - DL1961.

I adore DL1961 for four reasons:

First, and most important, my fat ass looks like a million bucks in them! I mean perfect. Perky, round, tight...the exact opposite of what my bunnies look like without the jeans.

Second, they do not stretch out! And, they are super comfortable. When I asked Lucia Albero, Showroom Manager at DL1961 about the special fit, she said, "The 4-way XFIT stretch sucks you in like no tomorrow!" Perfect.

Third, they are not over-the-top expensive. I will pay $158 for a great pair of jeans I can wear day and night.

Fourth, they offer several rises (high to low) and leg openings (bootcut, skinny, straight) which means big ass or small - everyone can rock them.

If you need more reasons, email me and I'll run over and slap you with a stick. They are perfect! Plus they look good with Yves Saint Laurent heels (hey, if you're saving money on jeans all the more to spend on shoes, right?)!!
