Ruffle Denim Skirts

Thursday, June 11th, 2009 | 47 Comments

I’ve been wanting to get a high waisted denim ruffle skirt this summer! I can’t believe how popular they are. I even spotted it in the latest issue of Zipper!
From Vivi to Zipper!


Popteen

Zipper


I spotted some on Yesstyle recently too. Seems like more and more pop up with new arrivals!


Okay maybe I got a little off focus with style! Haahaa! But the jumper skirt is adorable~
I haven’t purchased one yet though because if I do reach my weight goal I might have more sizing options open to me… so I’m waiting. But it’s REALLY hard to do when I see those kinds of skirts in Vivi and such!


Switching topics, my deco items from Strapya arrived yesterday!!

I haven’t even had time to open all the tiny bags. I look forward to doing little mock ups and seeing what I’ll end up with!! Everything looks so cute in their little bags though :sketchheart:

I wish I had bought deco items while I was in Japan~ it’s just that at the time I never thought I’d deco my phone. But the blackberry has so many cases MADE for it that I can just deco a case but still be able to change it if I want!

It’s not a lot of wild deco things as you can see. I want to do something simple but still sweet. I would love total garish dessert deco but for my first try ever I need to do something simple :good::ufu:

Ahhh all those skirts are so cute!

I’m so glad we can be fashionable by decorating our phones. We have fabulous phones now!

Be sure to take a picture of your lovely new deco’d phone when it’s finished, alright? Haha
All those skirts make me excited because I’ve been searching for them locally and haven’t found much, but it looks like they’re popping up like flowers now!! *_*

I’m the same as ^ I like the regular fabric ruffle skirts, but not so much the denim one. The jumper one looked cute. But if you can’t find one online you could always make one! That would be cute.

O.O I want Deco stuff! Hahahaha I made some out of polymer clay, but I haven’t done anything with it yet. There is soo much cute stuff I’ve seen! I can’t wait to see what you do with it!

I’ve been wanting a high-waisted denim skirt too! I saw it on Lena Fujii and I liked it.. even though I’m not her fan! Haha.

You should totally put tons of macarons on a case!!!!

Ah yea Lena’s ALWAYS in those denim skirts!

I think if this deco case goes well my next one will be a big bulky macaron filled one!

*SIGH* I wish I could wear them!

I adore how lifelike the deco food items are - but for practical purposes I’d probably only get somewhat “flat” stuff, you know?

Good luck on reaching your goal weight! Andy and I have been trying to lose 10 lbs for our gallery opening in two weeks, but we started TWO months ago! (FAIL) haha

jenny said
June 14, 2009 @ 2:03 pm

That’s exactly what I did, ordered smaller, more flat items. I don’t want this one to be too obvious? Because I have to take it to work and such. But if it goes well I think I’ll go ALL out with a super lumpy dessert version, haahaa!

I bet you both will look great for your opening either way \/

Oooh I really love the pink/purple skirt in Zipper. It looks really nice and casual, yet cute. I am super excited for summer now that I don’t mind wearing skirts anymore. Haha, used to be such a tomboy about it. Now I love skirts and sundresses!

Wow so adorable! I really like the purple one (2nd row 2nd column). Good luck with reaching your weight goals! I hope you’ll stay motivated ^^

Ohh, you just reminded me. If I can go to China this summer, I’ll definitely get lots of cute decorations for my dorm

Oh, those deco items! ♥♥ I did bought those for my cell phone once and sadly messed them all up, in the end. :(

But however, I can’t help wanting to buy some more after seeing the picture you took!

Jenny whats ur weight goal?

jenny said
June 14, 2009 @ 2:08 pm

46kg. I used to be 44kg until sophomore year of college (when all I had time to eat was fast food!! Then I NEVER worked at losing it after I graduated. x_x; ) Then last summer I went up to 54kg and so I started changing my eating habits then. So right now I’m at 48kg~~

Probably a little TMI, hahahahaa

My Mom and sister weigh 43kg (*so jealous :( )

Ah I’ve always wondered if Strapya is a good site to buy from because I only know where to buy hobby toys!

Hmm.. the high-waisted ruffle denim mini skirt seems too trendy- like everything rolled up into one. I think I’d prefer a high-waisted denim skirt, and a ruffle mini skirt in the end because I need more pieces in my wardrobe.^^;;

jenny said
June 14, 2009 @ 2:09 pm

I really liked Strapya because I screwed up and forgot to order something and they were willing to add it in so I didn’t have to pay double shipping!

The high-waisted ruffle skirts are LOVE! Especially the jumper style!

I hope you have as much fun as I did deco-ing the phone! Your strawberry and dollop pieces are too cute!

I love the high waisted skirts!It’s appearing in everywhere.. popteen has got alot of high waisted skirts too though not all are denim.

I keep seeing these high-waisted denim skirts around at like Fashion Gal and Charlotte Russe. I am so in love with the design. Except, It might be hot to wear in the summer. @_@ Denim ruffles are heavy????

I just don’t suit high-waisted skirts at all. I don’t know why but they just don’t fit right on my frame. Maybe cos I have wide hips/thighs? I love how they look on other girls though .

I love the little bits and pieces you’ve bought for your phone-case. I love things like that - like, to the point of obsession

i need oneeee!!!! i dunno why they dont sell high wasted skirts that are ruffled over here it’s either balloon shaped which makes my bum big or A line.. I guess I’ll just have to find a long ruffled skirt that is a few sizes too small and wear it at the waist hahahahahaha
I got beads today so i can send the donut very soon I hope you like it~
Looking forward to the deco~ I got a feeling it’ll be cute anyway you can;t go wrong with sweets

jenny said
June 14, 2009 @ 2:10 pm

WEEEEEEE I look forward to the donut!! Maybe I’ll make it into a huge keitai charm!? Hahahaha

yeah i know! ive been seeing those lately in jap fashion magazines as well and they are super cute! ^-^ i just wish i can pull those off~ i should reach my weight goal first before attempting to wear that…which is…a year from now LOL!

June 12, 2009 @ 3:18 pm

i don’t like the ones with zippers….looks amazingly tight/uincomfortable + very very short to wear without something under it…love the skirt in the last pic though

Sumie said
June 12, 2009 @ 3:21 pm

gosh they charge so much for one skirt(48.00)
i found one at zara in that style and it didn’t even cost 30$ haha…
but still crazy after that star.mimi stuff…*sigh

jenny said
June 14, 2009 @ 2:12 pm

I have the worst Zara near me I think! They NEVER get in the stuff other ones seem to have! Plus their prices keep going up & up. I guess bad exchange rate for USD causing that. I’ve never found anything at Zara’s under $30 =Y

I don’t wear skirts/dresses, but those are really cute. If I had the legs, I’ll probably wear them Can’t wait to see your phone all decoed up!

i always wanted to decorate something with deco stuff but i don’t think i can do it cause i’d be too scared to drop it and i’d be underpressure to not drop it and then i do! D:

i hope you make some beautifulness out of them! can’t wait to see it!

I bought a high waist denium ruffle skirt from www.zipia.net ~~ it has a zipper down the middle and its dark blue denium. Since their direct from S.Korea, their sizing runs really small to american sizing (a M (sometimes free size) is like, a 4? and an S is a 0 ). But i got soooo many compliments for it! It’s super cute, you should definetly get one! I’m pretty sure Yes Style has better conversion scale for sizes . The skirt also makes your waist look smaller! =p i gotta stop eating so much pasta hahahaha!

Argh those skirts are to die for. I have a lot of ruffle skirts but no high waisted ones. They’re totally adorable!
Love the deco stuff and can’t wait to see what you do with them! I wish I could do something like that with my phone, but it isn’t exactly customisable u_u its a Sidekick :3

Can’t wait to see your phone deco~

A friend of mine got this http://www.strapya-world.com/products/29998.html for her phone so that she could add straps. It stays on really well too.

Ah yea! I ordered 2 packs of those since my blackberry, nor any cases for it, have cell charm slots!
