FabSugar — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 05:50:22 -0700

Open your (bulging) closets girls. Count how many pairs of jeans you have. You know you have at least a couple pairs you never touch. What's the use of keeping them? Put those blue lovelies to good use by taking them to the Barneys store between August 6 and 19.

Not only will they donate your previously worn jeans to the local Big Brothers and Sisters organization, they will also give you 20% off your next pair. Pick from brands like 7 for all Mankind, 18th Amendment, Citizens of Humanity, Ksubi, J Brand, Nudie Jeans and more.

This offer is only valid at Barneys CO-OP and flagship locations. Donated denim must be in wearable condition.

Now that's a fashion give and take worth participating in!

On Our Radar: Stella McCartney Teams Up With Notify

Stella McCartney is one busy woman these days and she just keeps getting busier. It has been reported that McCartney and denim house Notify have teamed up for a good cause and for two smashing pairs of jeans. Together, they have created a rubberized-feeling cotton denim with no side leg seams, available in white, grey and purple, and a classic pair of dark blue high-waisted jeans with a boyfriend silhouette.

Unfortunately, you can't get your hands, or legs, on or in them until November, when they hit retail stores and sell for $375 and up.

A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to animal protection charities, a cause very close to Stella's animal-loving heart.
