Skinny Jeans for a chubby day!



I was the happy recipient of some hand me down jeans, but alas, they were from a girlfriend that was (ahem) slimmer than me. No problem! I cut them open at the side seams and put them back on, noting how much skin was showing at my widest places. That width plus some extra for salvages on each side and a bit more at the top and bottom for a hem and a waistband an"voila". I had a thrift shop tablecloth to cut my stripe from. I actually have to wear a belt to make sure they stay up, and the long stripe makes you look longer and leaner. I should have worn a bit of a heel for the picture. This is my first self photo shoot so I'm quite an amateur...next time I'll clean up the background too. Do you like the babydoll top? That one is an extra large T-shirt with a too small stretchy ribbed shirt piece sewed in the middle! I have more pictures but and I'll explain that later. So, if you want to make a pair of jeans just come over, I've got more tablecloth. Just make sure you have something else to wear so you don't end up hanging around in your skivies!
Next time I'll show you what we had for dnner tonite. Super easy Garlic Chicken Breasts with my famous salt! I even took pictures to do a step by step thingy.
Ahh, two problems solved....what to do with tight pants and what to have for dinner....PTL!!!!
