I am proud to be a Lee Fit Ambassador – this means I test Lee products and I am able to pass on what I think to others (like you guys!) which is pretty cool. Eventually, I’ll even be hosting a giveaway here so you guys have a chance to win something cool. I’ve always liked wearing Lee Jeans – they’re generally comfortable as well as stylish and the selection is varied enough that anyone can find something they like.

Recently, they’ve designed a whole new system to help women find their perfect fit (the “fit finder,” whic you can see at Lee.com), and I love that, because we all know that finding the perfect pair of jeans/pants can sometimes be a pain. Though when you do, it’s like a love affair of sorts.

What I didn’t realize until recently is that Lee does great work and supports a fabulous cause that touches my heart.

Lee National Denim Day is a grassroots campaign that helps raise money for breast cancer research. I do not have breast cancer; this has not touched my immediate family. But it could, at any time. And I know that many of you have been touched by breast cancer, either yourselves, or through a family member or friend.

I watched this video, and it tugged. So I wanted to share it, and the idea of Denim Day (October 2, 2009), with all of you.

(Had to remove the video b/c it autoplayed every time the site was loaded.)

Disclosure: This is an uncompensated review. I work with Lee as a Fit Ambassador and periodically receive a pair of pants (something new that they have launched) for review and/or giveaway, if I choose, free of charge. So far I have received 2 pair of pants.
