REinvention

This Skirt REinvention I created by combining a Size 8 denim skirt (haven't been Size 8 since I was 8!) with the leg of a pair of pants.

Both garments came home on different occasions & were filed.
Great skirt. Quality stretch denim. Rag hem.
Interesting Pants. Velvet Pinwale. Print. Embroidery. Zip detail.
I used a technique with this wrap style where I kept the front fly of the pants intact so I could continue to use it as the opening.
I've resisted wearing this skirt for a while because of the whole 'no black Docs' - don't know what I was worried about 'cause red Doc Martens go with everything!

  3. Did you do the print yourself Jody? How is this done?
    Again, loving red Docs. To those who maybe interested, there are some similar Docs on Ebay. They are size 5 or 6. Im only telling you because they wont fit me! but when a pair of 10's come up.........hands OFF! theyre mine!!!

  5. Thanks for the comments!

    I didn't do the detail on the pants Kelly, they're 'as is'. I'll try and do a more detailed shot - once I take it off!
