Happy Monday! Hope you had a lovely weekend. It finally started to feel like spring yesterday (50 degrees!!) and I was on CLOUD NINE. So let’s hope that sticks around!
I posted a little teaser about these jeans on Instagram last night because I just couldn’t wait to share them! They’re the most flattering skinny jeans I’ve worn… Seriously! And there’s a chance for you to win a pair at the end of this post. 🙂
DL1961 is a premium denim brand that started in New York City in 2008. Needless to say, I love the brand’s NYC heritage! I’d been hearing about DL1961 denim more frequently over the last few months, but I had never gotten around to trying them out. (If you’re anything like me, jean shopping usually isn’t the funnest of occasions and typically ends in me wanting to go to the gym for three days straight.) Anyways, it was perfect timing when Meghan reached out to me and asked if I would team up with her to do a little giveaway with DL1961. My coworker was raving about the brand just the day before so I happily obliged!
When I was flipping through the DL1961 website, I was majorly intrigued by their Instasculpt collection. I think it’s safe to say we all have a few pounds we wish didn’t exist, right? Right. While all of their spring collection looked fabulous, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a pair of their Florence skinny jeans. I went went the Byron color and I couldn’t be happier!
For starters, I feel like the color is perfect! The little-bit-lighter shade of blue is great for the warmer weather that’s on the horizon, but it can definitely be worn year round. (Heck, I wear white jeans when there’s snow on the ground so I think almost everything is appropriate year-round these days.)
However, if you’re in the market for a super spring-y pair of jeans, you have to check out this floral pair. I am in L-O-V-E. White jeans and printed jeans have a tendency to widen your lower half, but this pair also happens to be in the Instasculpt material. Win, win!
I know I’ve gotten a few emails from readers asking about flattering white jeans (I know it can be tough!), and while I haven’t personally tried the DL1961 white denim yet, I would definitely recommend trying their white Instasculpt pair!
But the fit, you guys. The fit is the bomb.com! The perfect amount of stretch to suck you in, but it doesn’t leave you feeling restricted at all. So comfortable! And they truly don’t lose their shape!
Meghan also styled a pair of jeans from the spring collection… the Emma jeans! Be sure to head over to Wit & Whimsy to see her look, too. I think the Emma’s are my next pair!
But you don’t have to take our words for it because we’re both giving away a pair of DL1961 jeans! That’s right, Meghan will pick one winner and I will pick one winner. If you’re chosen, you’ll have your choice of denim from the New Arrivals. Make sure you enter below and also on Meghan’s post to double your chances of winning!

Oh, and lets talk sizing for a second because I know you’re wondering! I stuck with my normal denim size (27) for these. The Florence style is super stretchy so they fit perfectly. No sizing up required!
Please pick me!!
These jeans are so flattering!

How do the sizes run? Are they true to size? I want to try a pair!
Oh, although I never heard from this brand I would love to try it as you look perfect in them!

I just got the Emma DL’s last weekend. They are awesome! Great thing about DL denim is that they dont stretch out. The way they fit when you buy them will be the way they fit always.
These jeans are so so cute! I love the Florence in the Monroe color. So flattering!
The jeans look great on you!

I went to a yoga class last fall that DL1961 put on in collaboration with a local upscale department store and the instructors all wore these jeans DURING class! I’ve been wanting to try them ever since…that byron wash is spot on, but also think the thornton looks awesome.
Love these jeans!! I like the color you have =) Fingers crossed I win a pair!!

Amazing giveaway! Thanks so much! And cute outfit today 🙂
I’d probably go with the same style you have on but in the Warner color. I need a new pair of really dark jeans!

I’ve been dying for a flattering pair of white jeans!
I would love to win any of the Instasculpt pairs. Thanks for the giveaway!
I’m using the changing seasons as an excuse to sort through and update my wardrobe, and as a result realized that I’ve never owned any quality denim. Here’s hoping!

Love this whole outfit! That jacket is too cute! And I will definitely have to try out these jeans. After all is there anything worse than jean shopping? Probably not.

These jeans look so great on you- I’d love to try a pair!
DL jeans are my favorite brand!! They don’t stretch out like other brands. I would love the Amanda in milk. 🙂
I’m in need of more favorite pairs of jeans! I usually have one dark wash skinny pair and I’d love to add another to my everyday collection!
Florence in milk! Thanks for the giveaway – love your blog!

Love love love that jacket!
I’ve been searching for the perfect pair of white jeans – I think the Angel in Swift may be the one!
Being a teacher, I am only allowed to wear jeans on Fridays (and of course the weekend;)). However, I strive to have jeans that fit nicely, so when I wear them to work, I still look professional!
This might be one of my favorite outfits from you! It’s simple and easy, but looks so pulled together! Love it!

Eek! This would be just what I need to try out to the world of white skinny jeans. So scary! Instasculpt Florence!
wow those jeans look amazing in you! I’d love to try a pair. The Byron wash looks perfect!
Hi! Love your style and super inspirational blog!
I am just about to have my first baby (a little girl) and am already thinking about all of the fabulous outfits I can’t wait to get back into post-pregnancy! I think a pair of super flattering jeans are a must and was planning to invest in a new pair anyhow to help me feel my best after the baby arrives. This brand sounds perfect and they look incredible on you! I think I would go with the Florence (also love the style name because this is where my husband and I got married!) in Byron… Such a classic look.
Winning this giveaway would make my (and baby’s) day!
I’ve dreamed of owning a pair of these amazing jeans! I love Coco in Milk and Joy in Nirvana!
To be honest I don’t have too many jeans because I never find the right one for my shape and the skinny jeans are often so tight when they look good and uncomfortable I would love to win this .
Live the floral pair for spring!
Love the idea of InstaSculpt! Need a pair of these in my life
Lindsay the InstaScuplt are the best fitting jean ever. Never looses the shape and the denim is soft and comfortable. Highly recommend you get a pair or 2
No doubt about it, the Florence InstaSculpt! Love the entire outfit in this post.
I would love to try the Paris wash <3

I love the pair that you are wearing!
Distressed Emma!!
Those jeans are so flattering and look super cute!
These are so cute! Always on the lookout for good jeans!
Ooooh! The Emma’s in white for sure! Super cute!
I love the color of the jeans. Such a nice warm blue for spring! I also love the way the jeans seem to hug the body, very flattering!
I love the look of the InstaSculpts! I have one other pair of DL1961’s but haven’t been able to wear them yet, I was paralyzed just over 2 years ago by a rare syndrome and through all the PT have made it out of a bed than a wheelchair now I use either a walker or Lofstrand crutches.
Desperate for a pair of jeans that actually fits my weirdo body!!! I love the Florence in Prinia!
I;m always looking for the perfect pair of skinny jeans. I think I would go with what you are wearing: Florence Instasculpt Skinny.
Thanks for a great giveaway! These jeans look great on you! I’d love a pair too….
I’m loving the Elodie style!
I am in love with the Joy Garland. 98% shape retention!
Loving the concept of these jeans! Anything to suck in and tighten is right up my alley.
These are gorgeous! I am in the market for some new jeans and everything from the wash to the style is just right with these. Great giveaway:)
I really want a pair of these! Have been eyeing them for a while on Piperlime!!
These sound like the perfect pair of jeans!!
