Make the Cut!

April 27, 2011





{Black Pants ~ Torrid / Coral Silk Blouse ~ Vintage.Thrifted {last seen worn here} / Ivory Vest with HUGE Black Buttons ~ Thrifted {was a jacket and I cut the sleeves off} / Ivory and Black Striped StrawTote ~ J Crew / Gold Lionshead Necklace ~ Vintage.Thrifted / Multi-Strand Gold Hoop Earrings ~ Alfani via Macy's / Black and Gold Watch ~ Kathy Van Zeeland / Black Heels ~ Mossimo via Target}

Did I ever tell you how scissor-happy I am?  I will pull out a pair of scissors in a heartbeat and turn a jacket into a vest {I don't mind the raw edge at all!}.  Or jeans into cutoff shorts.  Or a dress into a skirt.  Or turn my longer hair into a choppy bob {as soon as we got back from Baltimore on Sunday, *chop chop*}. Or a sweater into a cardigan. Yeah, I just can't stop my cutting impulse.

I am also infamous in our house for cutting the collar off of Cory's brand new freshly white Hanes t-shirts, turning them in slouchy off-the-shoulder tees for me to rock on the weekend with jeans and flats. :)

I may or may not be looking for things to cut and transform, as I type. LOL!


xoxo, thanks for reading!

  8. Your hair looks really cute!!! I've never really taken the scissors to my clothes, but I remember one time in high school I really wanted to change my hair, so I went into the bathroom and gave myself a chin-length bob and bangs. I still can't believe I did that, good thing it wasn't that bad a job.
