Life With Two Boys: DownEast Basics Review and Giveaway *Closed*

As you may or may not know I've been on Nutrisystem for the past four months and have been lucky enough to lose 19 pounds (YAY!) and that means it's time to find new clothes for my new body. I have admired DownEast Basics clothing for a while now and I was super excited when they offered to send me an item to review.

DownEast Basics offers affordable and fashionable clothing and accessories for women. After taking some time to browse their website I decided to go with the New Yorker Jeans to review since I'm in desperate need of new jeans. The New Yorker Jeans are a 98% cotton dark wash narrow boot cut jean that feature arrow back flap pockets and a wide waistband with double red enamel button closure.

I have been wanting a pair of jeans to show off the fact that I'm feeling more comfortable with my body and these are perfect! I decided to go with the dark wash that can be dressed down with a tank top and flip flops or can be dressed up with boots and a sweater. They're the perfect wear-anywhere jeans and the fact that I could order a size down from what I was wearing makes them all that much better!

I am in love with the wide waistband that the New Yorker Jeans have... I feel that it does a great job at hiding that tummy bulge that has yet to go away. And the back flap pockets make my butt look phenomenal... No more mom jeans for this girl! Overall, these jeans are everything I could want and then some!

You can purchase a pair of New Yorker Jeans from DownEast Basics for $59.99 and what's great about these jeans is the fact that they're available in four different lengths so they'll look good on you no matter how tall or short you are.
