So what was the purpose of the providing you with fun facts from 1969 - to celebrate the introduction of the Gap's new line of 1969 Premium Jeans. The 1969 Premium Jeans is aptly named in honor of the debut of the Gap. The new collection has been redesigned focusing on fit, premium washes and styles all to accomodate different body types by one of my favorite designers, Patrick Robinson

As part of the celebration, the Gap has been sponsoring Gap Born to Fit Parties all through out the country.

Recently, I was one of the lucky few to be invited to a Gap Born to Fit Party, a party hosted by my friend and fellow blogger Kim (mominthecity). The party introduced us to the new line of 1969 Premium Jeans and gave us an opportunity to try on all different style which included Sexy Fit, Real Straight and Always Skinny.

I have to say, that it was a not only a pleasure to see all those cool jeans in the comfort of Kim's home but was excited to run into familiar faces like Onica (blasionbaby) and meet new mom bloggers, Niri (mommyniri), Victoria (veepveep), Melissa (sheknows), Susanna (Green Baby) and a bevy of non- bloggers. That's right, not every one I meet these days is a blogger.

Every one at the party walked away with a FREE pair of 1969 Premium Jeans.

But the best part of the event is that Kim (Mom in the City ) and the GAP are giving away to one lucky New York City Single Mom.com reader a free pair of 1969 Premium Jeans (valued up to $70.) How cool is that???
