High Waisted /Mom Jeans August 11, 2007
I just read my Nylon magazine of the denim issue and on Cory Kennedy’s corner I read about ” mom jeans”. People absolutely hate them…..but they can still look good on some people like Cory K. What do you think???? ny mag thinks higher the waist the trendier….I think few people like cory can pull it off though =] but yes i think it can be cool in some ways =]
Vintage goods from Flea Markets August 5, 2007
These are my vintage scarves that I bought from a swap meet/ flea market.
I got up at seven o’ clock on Saturday for this swap meet last year and digged in for vintage findings. Well, I found a ton of things first these scarves. I think they were .20cents each,& some 80’s /50’s shoes that were really clean *like they wore them only three times*and found some handbags.
How to turn your regular Jeans/Pants into Skinnie Slim Jeans/Pants August 2, 2007
Why pay for your skinnies??

This is my version:
DIRECTIONS: click here *** first turn the pants inside out
*Click on the thumbnails to see details!
Pic#1 Just a cheap 25 dollar regular boot cut (on the other half leg)**1st measure it and make a mark w/ white pencil I prefer you measure your calves, knees & thighs with a measuring tape and guess how slim it’s gonna be and make a mark
Pic#2 Tapering/pre sewing* 2nd, cut tapered area w/ zig scissors then sew sides with serger or sewing machine.
Pic#3 If too long, cut off the bottom! 3rd sew the ends if cut& cut the sides where you tapered them …. im short that’s y ….If you have a serger that will be nice or just sew the sides where you cut them. you should doubble stitch it so that the fabric won’t fringe.
Pic#4 YAY finished<3

Tips:
1.) Don’t use bright colored string to sew your pants, choose a string color that matches your pants!!
2.) Don’t sew your pants or jeans too tight!!
