Mommy's Favorite Things: The Ellie Jean Review & Giveaway



Monday, March 7, 2011

The Ellie Jean Review & Giveaway



I love a good pair of jeans. One that fits great, has a great dark color, and shapes in all the right places.

I contacted The Ellie for a review and they agreed. I asked for a size 27 Bootcut. Unfortunately they were out of the 27 bootcuts at that time. So she was very generous and sent me the 26s and the 28s.
Again I'm having rotating issues. I apologize. If I rotate it so it looks right it will just upload the other way!
All jeans come with the Breast Cancer Awareness Pin.
What's nice is that's the only thing holding the tag on, so there's no holes or extra stitching.


Nice thick stitching which I L.O.V.E.

Love the detail on the back pocket.

Both sizes fit me well. The 26s are great for my flats or if I want that tighter look, these will get the most use. 
The 28s are good if I want a bit of a looser look and they are 1" or so longer so they're great for if I need to wear heels. 

I love them both equally!

The 26s are what I wear most, they're tight, but they have some nice stretch in them. I actually think they fit me great. I hate when jeans are so tight that they make my butt flat. Well these are tight, but the pocket has nice thick stitching on it so it adds to my butt and makes it look normal!! 

They are made in Los Angeles. These are my favorite jeans currently. I love dark jeans, the darker the better. I love that there's nothing fancy about these going on, no whiskering, holes or destruction at all. I love that they are dark, plain and simple! They are amazing, nice support and they look great!

The profits from The Ellie Jean go towards Breast Cancer and The Ellie Fund
There are 2 styles of Ellies, the Bootcut I received and a straight. 
They come in size 26-34. The 32,33,and 34 are out of the Bootcuts currently though!

Price: The jeans are $119. I think this is generous for a great fitting jean and most of it goes towards the Ellie Fund anyway, so that right there is worth the extra cash.

Overall: ***** LOVE these jeans, they are my favorite and go towards an amazing cause. 


 *Disclaimer* I received these products directly from the company for Review. I was not paid to try out these products*
A Big Thank you goes out to The Ellie for allowing me to review this product!

I'd wear them all the time. For casual I'd add a tee and maybe a blazer with boots. For dressier I'd wear a pretty toop and strappy heels.

I would wear them for date nights with my husband at our local pub with a cute black, knotted front, tee I have.


deb c said...

I'd wear the jeans to the mall;
I would wear them in the hall.
I would wear them in the car;
I would wear them near and far.
I would wear them to the fair;
I would wear them everywhere.
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
I'd probably wear the jeans with boots, a tight tee, and a crop cardigan.

I'd wear these jeans everywhere and with everything! Post-baby I do not have a pair of jeans that fit well. One pair is so loose I look like my bum is sinking to the ground and I'm constantly hiking them up. The other pair fits great except it creates a mushroom top :/
