this is a special weekend recap post because i'm recapping last thursday night as well as my weekend because what happened to me on thursday is just too good to pass up.
a fabulously friendly woman named justine from the LA based brand about town contacted me and a couple of other cleveland based blogs on behalf of the gap. yes, THE gap. basically justine has been traveling around the country talking to a select group of bloggers looking to choose some as 'gap brand enthusiasts'.
funny the way that worked out because i just so happened to work at gap for almost five years. it was my first job at 17 and to say i drank the kool-aid during my time there would be an understatement. i thought (and still think) the gap was the coooooooolest.
so you could say i was excited when i got the email, and more than willing to meet up with justine and see what she had to say.

go on .... click.

ReplyDeleteforgetting your food was not cool. and you're too nice for letting it go.
That's so cool about The Gap! Neat opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI saw The Proposal as well. It thought it was cute - better than I expected! Admittedly, my favorite part was the end though. The credit sequence was hilarious!

ReplyDeleteHow awesome was this? Even if I don't get picked, I got FREE CLOTHES. It's just...balla. Baller? Actually, I'm not cool enough to say that.
PS: I was in Canton this weekend for a wedding. I thought of you. Because I know how you love Canton. :)

ReplyDeleteWhen I think of GAP, I always think of that Seinfeld where Elaine thinks she's dating an ethnic guy and the guy thinks she's ethnic too. Then, when they find out they're both white, the guy says to Elaine, "So, we're just a couple of white people? What do we do now?" And Elaine shrugs and says, "Wanna go to the GAP?"
ReplyDeleteThis was a bad post to read when I skipped breakfasat and lunch is still an hour away. That chicken dish sounds absolutely delicious. No joke my stomach won't stop growling now.
ReplyDeleteYay for Justine! And yay for Gap!
ReplyDeleteI wish one of these companies would search for tall Canadian dudes who eschew shaving and wear baseball caps all the time.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're not serious about the Fat Jesus thing....
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to mention how Justine was also the cutest most delightful thing EVER. I would've done it if she was pushing turds.
ReplyDeleteWhat?
I totally want to see both of those movies!
ReplyDeletei'm usually a little wary of rom-coms, but i VERY MUCH want to see the proposal. love me some sandra bullock, and ryan reynolds...? DUH :-)
ReplyDeleteI saw the proposal with my pops. He liked it too.
ReplyDeleteThe gap cardigan is my fav. I buy far too many of those.
yay for the gap. love the dress you got, so cute.
ReplyDeleteand i loooved the proposal too, seriously so funny and cute and mmmmmryan, heart him.
I heart HIMYM more than life itself.
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as watching too many. haha
I worked at the GAP for two years! I so miss the 50% off! **sniff** I think Detroit needs a GAP enthusiast! Ya know those Detroiters are all about the GAP
ReplyDeleteOh my god, we got two of the same items. Now when you come visit we need to dress as twins. How awesome would that be?
ReplyDeleteGive me Bradley Cooper any day in The Hangover over Ryan Reynolds....
ReplyDeleteI met with Justine too and she is just a doll. She was like talking to a friend, not like being interviewed. I tried on the same dress, but decided it didn't look right on me. Love your new clothes!
ReplyDeleteHey oh! I'm meeting with Justine on Wednesday about the Gap Brand Enthusiast thing ~ amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo lucky. I freakin' love The Gap. It's my go-to store.
ReplyDeleteI almost got that dress! nice choices.
ReplyDeleteI kinda want to see the proposal (helloooo ryan reynolds!!) but if asked I'd probably see the hangover again instead.
Ahhh! I am so jealous, Alexa... I miss The Gap! I needs to get my unfashionable butt to Beachwood!
