Be bootylicious this holiday season!

Once upon a time, a guy I had a thang for told me I had a great ass. (Am I allowed to type ass here? I guess I’m about to find out…)
Instantly, I started to walk a little differently, and accentuate my bootylicious assets as much as possible.
I am not alone – all of us women spend our entire life trying to propel our best arse forward, and will often spend way too much money on jeans in order to make it closer to a reality.
Now, one may wonder why, in a beauty blog, I am speaking of jeans…but I maintain, a good pair of jeans is intrinsic to feeling beautiful!
And thus, why I am obsessed with Joe’s Jeans – their Honey Mulholland cut is everything I love: all-over deep dark color and a classic boot cut. They are great for dressing up or for a casual day at the coffee house. And, most importantly, they make my butt look great. This is accomplished by subtle bronze stitching on front and back which matches the rivets and buttons. The back pockets are embroidered and have outlined stitching making them stand out from the rest of the jean. It’s brilliant craftsmanship that even NASA would be proud to call their own.
As this is the season of giving, I want to give the greatest gift of all to my readers: a great ass. And thus, I will offer it in the same way it was bestowed upon me – a pair of Joe’s Jeans. Three readers will receive the pair of their choice (and that also goes for men’s or kid’s styles if you prefer). Whether you have traits you are trying to accentuate or diminish, there will be a style for you! Check out all the styles at www.joesjeans.com/shop/home.php
To have your chance to win – tell me your sexiest asset, and how you maintain it!
Deadline is December 19!

I’d love to win some jeans, Thanks for having such a great contest
OH BOY
I have been complimented on my butt too, so i would love to win this:) I think my best feature is my eyes though:)
My sexiest asset is my face, I take care of it by washing my face daily applying moisturizer and ensuring I drink enough water and eat veggies, especially if I was drinking the night before~~
My sexiest asset is my eyes. I always use moisturizer to keep the ‘lines’ at bay.
my legs are awesome b/c I run!
Necessity has maintained my greatest ‘asset’ for me. As a New Yorker, I can only afford a fifth floor walkup apartment in a non-elevator building. 7 days a week I have to climb what feels more like a small mountain than stairs to get home at night, and heaven forbid I forget everything I need at the supermarket and have to make two trips in the same day up and down “stair mountain”. While other parts don’t win the battle against gravity, my booty and thighs are still winning because they have to climb ‘mt. steep stairs’ every day. I visited the site and have to agree that these jeans are the best cut for us gals ‘naturally blessed’ with an hourglass figure. Sometimes an ample bottom with a small waist creates that horrid gap at the waist that leads to plumbers crack when you sit, these jeans do a nice job of preventing that from the various photos on the Joe’s Jeans website. (could you imagine being a jeans model and having to see your own rear with that zoom button feature on websites?!)
I have to go with the eyes too — recently a dr., not my regular doc mind you, tried to get me to take out my colored contacts! But, I don’t wear contacts! I do try to avoid rubbing my eyes — hard to do when they itch but rubbing eyes makes them look tired (and old!)
My sexiest asset is my personality (sigh), and I maintain it by never letting my husband forget that he is my HPOA (Hot Piece Of …). He is 43 and I am 39, so let that be a lesson to you youngsters out there…lol…

My sexiest asset is my lips- I like to keep them soft and moisturized.
I would have to say that my calves/thighs are my best asset. I try to run every day to keep in shape.
legs……..do a lot of walking……Joe’s Jeans are my favorite!!!!!
My sexiest assets are my hair and my eyes.
I have big green eyes, so I accent them with the Green Eyes kit from Pop Beauty- a brush of minty green on the lids, and a pop of blue along the crease. I always do at least 3 coats of volumizing mascara- my new favorite is definitely “very black” lash blast by cover girl. On nights out, I like to do a sweep of black liquid liner that really makes the eyes pop with a little bit of cat-tail. The best I’ve ever used is Loreal’s voluminous eyeliner in black- it looks and works like a fine tipped marker on one end, and a calligraphy pen on the other.
For my super long hair, the key to keeping it shiny is to only wash it every 3 days. And even though it’s chestnut colored, I use a little bit of vanilla scented baby powder to soak up any extra oil, especially in the bangs. By only washing it every 3 days, I avoid frizzing from over blow-drying, and when I DO blowdry, I make sure to let it air dry while I get dressed and put my makeup on so that it’s only under the heat for a few minutes- doing that always leaves it glass-glossy!
My derriere is definitely not my best “ass”et, which is why I *need* these jeans. My collarbone is my favorite attribute, although I don’t do anything as far as upkeep…
my butt, calienetics and biking
I’d have to say my bottom or my decolletage. Both actually improved when I put on a few extra pounds. I just try to keep activity in my day as much as possible.
My legs and butt are my best assets! I do the stairs at work every workday at lunchtime! All 24 floors! I sometimes do them twice if I am feeling overly energetic or if I have the extra time! I also eat very few carbs, no sugar, pasta or bread, just the Arnold Low Carb bread. I find just cutting down on the carbs and regularly working the stairs is great and actually relatively easy! It also doesn’t cost anything, the stairs are free, unlike a gym, LOL! I have been wanting a pair of Joe’s Jeans for the longest time. They are hot and awesome! Thank you for the opportunity to enter.
my hair is my greatest asset, and all i have to do is wash it occasionally
My wife…treat her like the goddess she is…
I couln’t help myself but to bite. My greatest assets, or so I am told, are my legs and eyes.
I am now a 48 year old woman, but to this day, and all my life I have been complimented on both of those things.
I remember once long ago when a male friend of mine observed me slathering my legs in cream, and he made the comment, “You sure take good care of those legs, don’t you?”
Another, said I had legs that reached all the way up to the sky, as they are very long and lean.
I really don’t do anything different today, than I did way back then. I walk a lot, and I make sure they stay soft and smooth by lathering on lots of my favorite scented cream, and I have always looked for fashions that accentuate them.
~Best Wishes~
I think my best asset is the fact that I would never spend 172 USD on a pair of jeans unless my like depended on it. really. I draw the line at 100. Craziness.
eyes- hair-feet
Wonder how they fit
My greatest asset is my bottom. I walk 5 miles daily!
As much as I (and random guys on the streets of Manhattan) love my booty, I have yet to find a way (or a pair of jeans, perhaps…) to play it up like I should, so by default, I must award the greatest asset prize to my northern lady lumps… my boobs. With a great bra and low cut shirt, I can make myself look ten pounds thinner (amazing what some lift will do), and have the confidence to walk around like I own the world. On a fat day as I walk around campus with the size zeros sprinting around me, my girls can perk me up with the simple fact that I got for free what I know quite a few girls at my school have paid good money for. Sure, they’re hard to manage sometimes, and it’s frustrating when you can’t zipper a dress or go braless without looking like you’re auditioning for Playboy, but I think I would be complaining a lot more if I DIDN’T have them. In a way, they’re just as much an indication of who I am than anything else. I may not be perfect, but I can fill out a tee shirt like nobody’s business, and that’s all that matters.
my sexiest asset is my brain. i maintain it with frequent witty banter, reading, researching topics of almost every nature, deconstructing & reconstructing & figuring out how things work, trips to the library, watching documentaries and public television, etc etc.
I’m told my breasts aren’t bad either. No maintenance necessary…just a good bra.
My sexiest asset is my natural Kool-Aid smile.
my best asset is my chest.
My best ASSet is what it is. I have been an athlete my whole life and my rear is part the cause and part the effect. I inherited my dad’s lower extremities and thus am built like a boxer—really, I was stopped on the streets in Vegas and asked to join Wilson “Honey Boy” Smith’s gym! I retired from 10 years of competitive distance running at the beginning of the year and now maintain my muscular (and much curvier) maximus by some running, exploring the city (moved here upon “retirementâ€) and dancing up a storm in any bar I wander into (as any single girl should). While I love my new *slightly softer* body, none of my pants fit! I tried on my first pair of Joe’s last week and fell in love—but, like so many men lately, I can’t afford them. So I need a pair of Joe’s a. because they are the only blues in Saks I fit into, b. I have no pants, and c. They would make a great date!
My eyes and I use blue eye shadow (for evening) to enhance the color.
My sexiest asset? Hm. Probably my ta-tas! I always wear a good-quality bra to keep them pert and perky. I keep my skin soft and smooth with moisturizer. I have exactly two pesky hairs that I pluck periodically (no, I’m not afraid to admit it, lol!). I also dress for my figure. I have come to realize I don’t want to show too much to the world, so I typically wear more conservative tops that only show a hint of cleavage. The only person that gets to see more is my special-somebody.
My great eyes and I wear glasses to protect them
My sexiest (ha!) asset would be my hair. I maintain it using Suave shampoo & conditioner!
I have a tiny butt so every pair of jeans I own sag..I need a pair that will actually fit
My greatest asset is my mind
I always get compliments on my full lips, so I keep them moisturized and I love having fun by playing them up with gloss! Thanks.
My sexiest asset would be my eyes. I get enough sleep, drink lots of water and wear mascara and eyeliner
My sexiest asset is my personality! I take care of it by constantly cultivating my interests and intelligence. Ok, ok, I know we are looking for physical assets here, so I would have to go with my smile. I make sure I keep up with my daily dental routine to keep those babies white and beautiful!
my eyes are what i love the most and i wear colors to compliment them…and now that i have had lasik – i don’t have to hide behind glasses OR bother with contacts!

I’d have to say my legs. I exercise and make sure they are well exfoliated so they can look their very best. And no, I’m not conceited. ~lol~
My ass–diet and excercise
My sexiest asset is my general confidence, which I maintain with regular workouts (especially cardio!). Face it, if I believe I’m looking bootylicious, so does the rest of the world!
I have great hair, and with a great stylist who gives me the “perfect” cut, I just wash, shake and go! No maintenance at all!
I get compliments on my legs. Thanks for the giveaway.
my best (maybe not sexiest) asset is my smile. i moisturize my lips constantly with vaseline and spf 15 lip balm. i brush my teeth 2x a day and floss regularly to ensure that my teeth stay white (but not overbleached white). having had braces and limiting my coffee intake definitely helps!
Jeans are the most versitile item in my wardrobe
I just asked my husband of 31 years and he said my sexiest asset is my tush, especially, the way I shake it when I take off pants
I think it is my Fredrick’s enhanced cleavage 
.
Well it certainly ISN’T my ass. It has gotten way too big after my back injury. It always was my eyes, but they’re getting a little droopy now that I’m 40 something. Oh well.
My best asset is my laugh. Laughter draws everyone in just wanting to laugh with you.
I would say that my sexiest asset is my smile…I visit the dentist regularly to maintain my sparkling teeth and I never leave the house without some lip glass. I love Rosebud Salve, Joeur Lip Gloss in Starfish, and MAC Lip Glass in Ornamental…
My Mind
I keep it active by doing crossword puzzles every day
