I recently took a gander at the Not Your Daughter’s Jeans offerings for fall, as well as a sneak peek at holiday and resort for 2011. The brand takes a huge fashion-forward leap and expands its lifestyle offerings with colored denim, skinny leggings, wide leg, flare styles, and wear-to-work dress pants. My absolute favorite (and the pair I took home with me, compliments of NYDJ) are these brilliant Alisha Skinny in Fine Line Twill in Crimson Red, $104. In honor of NYDJ launching e-commerce at NYDJ.com, we are doing a giveaway — THE WINNER WILL GET TO SELECT ANY PAIR FROM THE SITE! Choose from the array of jeans, skirts, and pants, in regular, petite, or plus sizes. The new NYDJ.com provides free shipping and exchanges on every order, btw.

Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, McQueen, Mom, & Me

by Julia DiNardo

Girls Day Out! Dad tagged along to be our photographer, on a sunny July Saturday in Manhattan with one particular mission: the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibit at The Met. Mom and I rocked our Not Your Daughter’s Jeans Straight Leg Trouser Chinos in White, courtesy of the brand, and perfect for the summer as both a weekend casual and work appropriate garment. As you can tell we may look alike, and even while wearing the same pants, our styles are very different.

[On The Met’s rooftop garden]

Either way, the NYDJ’s patent Tummy Tuck technology made us feel comfy and look a full size smaller. With great stretch, a higher waist, and back pocket slits, these chinos were complimentary to our petite frames, with this particular style available in misses, women, or petites (speaking of, I had to do a quick hem job on both of our chino, chopping 3 inches off of mine, and 5 off of Mom’s!).

So to The Met we went; Mom absolutely LOVED the exhibit, while my Dad somehow worked his way through it in less than 10 minutes, declaring “Now that one (exhibit), I didn’t get at all!” Afterward, we made our way to The Met’s rooftop garden, taking in one of the best views in the city, then went out for a Starbucks run and a Greek dinner in Astoria.
