AE re-worked aqua lace skirt & vintage re-worked sweater

AmERiCaN EaGLe
Re-WoRkeD sKiRt with aqua print trim

This skirt is made from a pair of size 6 jeans from American Eagle.
(There is some spandex in these jeans so there is some stretch to the skirt).


Measurements: waist (sits low on hips) approximately 28
Size: 6
Length: approximately 22.5"



front

The ruffle was made from a polyester scarf shawl

(back)
The sweater is a vintage, raw edged, re-worked sweater. It was a bulky, long sleeved turtle neck that zipped up the back, but now, it is a fitted pull-over (zipper no long er functional) that pairs nicely with this skirt!
(The tags were missing so I don't know what it is made of). It feels like a poly/wool blend perhaps, so hand wash and hang to dry just to be safe.
Size: S/M
(look for it in a day or two, I still have some adjustments to do before I'm happy with it ;)



The patch is an actual cut out of the denim, so the fabric is a bit shear

Pop Garden Paisley Patchwork Skirt

Description
This skirt is re-worked from a great used pair of Banana Republic jeans. I added some Heather Bailey Pop Garden fabric as well as a couple of others to create a cute patchwork look made up of lime greens, coral pinks, blacks, and denim. I love the raw look so the hem is unfinished, and the applique will frey when washed. Throw it on with a black tank and flip flops and you are headed out the door in something truly unique and fresh for summer!

Size 2

Length: 23" approximately
back

Care: throw this in the washer and dryer as you would with your favorite pair of jeans.
