They've faded out to various shades. Citrine is much lighter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-714841 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 17:50:49 +0000 Angie 714841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that one husband is enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-714840 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 17:50:20 +0000 Marley 714840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una - what wash are the 3 (that you already have) called? Also, are they the exact same style as the citrines? (I'm just doing some "personal" research. Hahahaha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-713672 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:12:17 +0000 Carole 713672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are making me realize I have truly been missing out, I have zero boyfriends! I have no idea about the staying power of this trend but will be anxious to see what the experts think. I say if you find a pair in a different color on deep discount, why not add another pair. It's obvious you re in love and they love you back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-713668 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:06:37 +0000 Sona 713668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you could cheat on one or two but more than three is questionable.</p> <p>:)))) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-713664 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:05:24 +0000 catgirl 713664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marley, that's a good thought! On the other hand, I feel like these work well, so why branch out for most expensive versions? I'm almost afraid to go there! </p> <p>My denim collection is now only BFs, skinnies, and the expensive Joe's bootcuts that I still wear as dressy jeans. No more straights, wide legs or flares. </p> <p>Will see how I feel by the next sale - thanks for all the great input and food for thought! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-713273 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 05:23:46 +0000 Marley 713273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you exchange one of your current boyfriends for one in the citrine wash? I'm thinking that 4 GAP BFs is an awful lot of BFs from the same "family" - and you might want to branch out and try a boyfriend from say, the other side of town - i.e. True Religion, COH, etc. instead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-713040 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 01:11:14 +0000 nancylee 713040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It all depends on your style/lifestyle. I think in your case, Una, more is probably better. So, if you're really loving them I say go ahead and add another pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-713034 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 01:00:58 +0000 citygirldc 713034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one and now I want another.

You'll be kicking yourself once Gap changes them in some way and stalking ebay. They look great on you, you like wearing them, they fit your style and life. You had to ask? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712964 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 22:53:35 +0000 Anonymous 712964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are they all slightly different in some way? If so, I'll say buy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712940 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 22:22:35 +0000 catgirl 712940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, as long as he's not the pale intense boyfriend from the Pacific Northwest who glitters in the sun because he's a vampire...</p> <p>Too funny! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712906 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 21:24:15 +0000 rae 712906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that is the wash i have and i love it... Rugged, RATE. Disheveled, sunbleached BF? What is not to love? I really like lighter bottoms on ITs, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712871 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 20:39:42 +0000 Suz 712871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, you DEFINITELY need at least one pale boyfriend! </p> <p>The question is, is he pale like that because he's the beachy, surfer boyfriend? </p> <p>Or maybe he's the nerdy techie boyfriend who never gets outside. </p> <p>In all seriousness, I have the citrine and I really like it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712827 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 19:40:46 +0000 CocoLion 712827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Um, I have four pairs. Of True Religions. Three Camerons and one Brianna. I had ordered one more pair in July but sent them back because I realized, 4 is enough. I wear them in all three of my different wardrobe capsules -- for work with a white shirt, casually, and smart casually. This is why I didn't mind paying a lot for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712825 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 19:39:16 +0000 kellygirl 712825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol! I really like the citrine wash. I like it better than the darker one. I bought one of each and will keep the second pair if I can figure out how to transition to fall. (I tried it with the Docs this morning (14 eyelet) and thought it looked weird. )</p> <p>I think that as long as you don't think you are going to tire of this look, that you should go for it and stock up. I think for IT's its kind of the perfect jean because it balances the shoulders. DH thinks my BF are my best jeans (which makes me wonder what he thinks about all of the others....) </p> <p>Anyway, you have my blessing. Stock up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712765 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:45:39 +0000 MNsara 712765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In that you feel confident they are truly YOU, and I feel confident that Gap quality is questionable and inconsistent, I would most definitely get another pair in Citrine. </p> <p>Maybe only ONE pair (do you consider this a more summery wash?). and Maybe your middle size - if that one seems to be the most versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712761 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:42:51 +0000 Anonymous 712761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One can never have too many </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-bfs-are-too-many#post-712757 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:42:06 +0000 catgirl 712757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How many boyfriends does a woman need? I am debating the citrine color which I just saw in the store (when it next goes on discount). I have 3 different sizes in the same wash, and they are in constant rotation. Would you say they've become a wardrobe staple for me, or should I hold off? I know I'll be wearing these long after they aren't trendy because they are and have always been my style in whatever incarnation they took over the decades...</p> <p>Or do I need an intervention? </p>
