sewing mends the soul








Tomorrow school starts, so i've stayed home all day and have been mending my clothes. I have a couple pairs of pants that I love but hate how they fit. On the picture with my white pants you can see how they're loose by the ankles. If I buy skinnies, I like them to be skinnies ! So I sewed in all my pants so that they were tight all the way to my ankles. Just how I like it.. There's a jacket there as well, its a black velvet jacket from the 80's with shoulderpads that remind me so much of the balmain jackets, I had to buy it. The only problem is that the sleeves are too big.. but I fixed that as well. Sadly my mom forgot our adaptor at her studio, so I had to sew everything by hand, but on the weekend I'll be sure to go over it with the machine!
