What if you weren't allowed to wear denim jeans?

What would you wear?

I will have to be without jeans for about two weeks. Coming from an American teen, that’s a big deal.

I don’t have the greatest legs. I have a birthmark I would like to cover. So can anyone point me in the direction of nice pants (chino, slacks, courduroy, linen, yoga) cut-offs, skirts, or dresses? Keep in mind, the skirts will always be with leggings or tights. The dresses will have bare legs if worn at night.

As of right now, I only own a pair of black pants, brown sort of courduroy (that don’t fit well), and many skirts.
My birthmark is too large and dark to cover up. And I can’t wear it because I will be on a school trip to another country, jeans are forbidden for some reason
* not forbidden in that particular country…just by our teacher who would like us not to wear them

Can you turn long jeans into jean shorts?

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

I was thinking of cutting the legs part of my jeans and turn it into a short. I have many old jeans, so I thought of cutting off some parts of the jeans. It’s like a summer hobby for me. It’s getting hot in Japan, so I need to have summer clothes.

Do your low cut jeans (on the hips) fall off?

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

I mean when you bend, does the world get a look at your crack? Mine doesn’t show but it feels like it might. I find low cut jeans make me look a lot slimmer on the legs, but how do you handle the slide on the butt

Whats wrong with cut off jeans??

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

My shorts were dirty so I took a old pair of levis and cut the legs to make shorts but I couldn’t get the legs even so after several tries I ended up cutting them really short. I thought they looked pretty nice and it was comfortable but then after I go outside to trim our tree my friend across the street starts making fun of them.. calling them daisey dooks whatever that is.. They’re just jean shorts. My dad also said it looked funny. Am I missing something here? Should I throw them away?
yeah dmike they look like what the girl in the photo is wearing… too bad it gets that reputation.. now i have to throw them away. I hate long shorts!! Is there any manly short shorts I can wear??? I’d prefer speedos but they don’t give protection like jeans to the special area lol..

Are Cut-off Jeans “in”!? HELP making shorts…!!??

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Like these kind of jeans…
http://www.abercrombie.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10051_10901_387852_-1_12283_12203
are they “in”??
I’m not gonna buy them, I’m planning on making some shorts cause I have some jeans I really like but they’re too short, so I was wondering if I should just cut off the legs so they’re frayed like the pic above, or should I cut them off then fold about a 1/2 inch of them over and sew them so they’d look like this on the ends (just not as good):

Also, any tips for how to make them look good? Like so you wouldn’t be able to tell I made them myself?
And any tips on how to make holes in your jeans like in the first pic if i decide to go with the cut-off frayed look?
Thanks!!
(:

Making cut offs?

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

I have a couple pairs of jeans that I don't really wear anymore so I want to turn them into cut offs for spring and summer. However, I don't want them to look like I just cut the legs off my jeans–I want them to look good. How do I do this?

I also want to kind of rip them up and make them look kind of worn and old. Any ideas? Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!
lol jet…..
