DIY - High Low Hem Jeans

3/27/2017

6 Comments

 
This latest trend of high low hem jeans, also known as the step hem is not something I saw coming!  Initially it seemed bizarre, but as with all things fashion if seen often enough, it inevitably catches on.  The drawback is how expensive this style is to purchase, I've seen prices ranging  from $150 to well over $200.  So, I decided to take a very old pair of jeans and risk the alteration experiment.  I'm glad I did, it was easy, they turned out well and pretty authentic looking.

Kimono Style

My obsession with the kimono began a few years back, when I saw one of the "Real Beverley Hills Housewives" wearing a brightly colored sheer floaty cardigan on the show and I knew I had to find something similar.  It took a year to find one I really loved, and this is it.

Town and Country

Here's a simple outfit that works for a casual get together, lunch or dinner.  It has a rustic feel to it with the black and tan color scheme. The saddle bag and tan suede shoes add to the somewhat "country" theme, but the leopard print sends it "down town" along with the ballet style lace up sandals.

If you live around Scottsdale or have passed through recently, you may have noticed the giant white tents standing alongside Loop 101 and Hayden Road.  For ten weeks at the beginning of every year as many as 100 of the finest artists from across the country gather in this enormous arena to display their work.  Many of the artists create new work whilst visitors, art lovers and art collectors meander the studios taking in spectacular art in various forms from paintings to sculptures, and can chat with the artists and see how their work is created.

Artwork for sale is set out in each of the artist's allotted studio space.

Sleeve Drama

3/5/2017

Upon observation, it seems the most recent styles from last summer through to the present have transitioned from off-the-shoulder to cold shoulder, to bell sleeves, to drama sleeves -  and I've enjoyed every minute of it!  All of the above are still going strong, but the latter is the new kid on the block.  Here's my favorite find thus far to throw spotlight on this newcomer.
