Poppy's shorts.
(Yeah I know.... most imaginative blog title ever, right)
So, I haven't owned a pair of denim shorts...just normal denim shorts... in like forevz. Which is completely crazy....wardrobe staple, hello?!
So anyway.... do you remember these jeans.....http://theredflowerblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013_02_01_archive.html (I know, they were great....cough...). Well, I wore that them that one time.....and then I don't think they ever made another appearance, so it was either charity shop time or to make them over. And seen as I got sort of bored, I thought I'd make some shorts,
Now, I'm not gonna lie... it's not like I have some new fangled way of making shorts, I don't. They're bog standard jeans to shorts but as it happens its the first time I've done this, so thought I'd share with y'all.
Step 1. Grab some sexy jeans....yeah okay....they could have done with an iron, but I'm about to chop them okay?
Step 2. So, I kinda tried them on, looked in a mirror...decided how short I wanted them...drew a mark like...lower than that cause I was planning on rolling them up. (My English is fabulous today).
Step 3. Then I chopped. It was fun.
4. At this point I had forgotten to continue taking photos... score. So yeah, I cut them both to the same length, then I just rolled and added a few things here and there (badge, button, safety pin....everyone needs a safety pin).
5. Oh yeah....and I fixed the patch on the bum that was falling off!

'I feel it's already too late to live'
Good Friday today. Megan invited me along with her, Amy and Lottie to Clumber today. Amy has recently passed her driving test and got a cool car...I'm ridiculously jealous. I'm learning to drive at the minute and absolutely loving it, it's too fun! So anyway, Amy picked us all up and after a quick pit stop at Morrison's (see we didn't even have to make dinner) we went to Clumber... actually had to queue to get in it was that crazily busy.
I wore my Primani denim dress with my beaten up (literally have holes in) asos ankle boots. Pinched Amy's sunglasses and in this picture I am carrying Megan's bag...top friend. The cardigan's Henry's, still got a strong love for that dude.
Amy brought her dog along... and no I'm not a dog person, but what a cutie. Top bonus that the sun was out! Kinda looking forward to the summer....so. sick. of. winter. clothes. I am also looking forward to getting snapping up some festival clothes for the dreamed of weekend in the country!
Keep Dreaming xoxo
