DIY Retro Jean Fun

 It's been a minute since I have had time to sew or do fun shit.

These are Marc Jacobs Runway

So, 

(mine are just as fab)

I, of course, was "given" the opportunity to snazzy up some of the Teen's thrift store haul.

This is how it happens:

Teen and friend buy cool Salvation Army stuff

they say

"Mom, look at this stuff, we have a plan"

then the plan sits on the kitchen table until I say,

" Damnit!!! I'll do it."

Anyways...

here's the how to:

1:Buy jeans

2: cut jeans in cool places (but use caution because you have to sew it back together!)

4: take half the cut pieces and bleach them or dye them

5: reassemble on the floor and pin

6: now remember when you sew them together that you want the seam to the inside and the fringe on the outside.

7: get a glass of wine ( or martini)

8. finish and make teens model 

look how cool....

She makes me smile...

There is your fashion for the day

YOU ARE WELCOME

New Year's...It's resolution time....Just be awesome

Here we go.  

As I get older I start to set my goals more in the medium range, with a few fancy ones thrown in.  One of my friends has a great way of thinking of her new goals.  Make a goal...then add a bonus.  I like that.

1. girls weekend getaway.

2. travel...alone.

3. Motorcycle ride, camp, ride.

4.  read a book every other month

5. run a 10k ( my friend has run a 10k a month on her list....whaccco!)

6. Pottery class

7. Art class

8. Writing class (  scares me)

9. yoga my heart, mind, soul

10 get a passport   (seems silly huh?  it just is a lot of paperwork)

and remember...
