Snow Day and DIY Ripped Jeans

Monday, Dec. 7, 2009 | 65 Comments

So Saturday was AWESOME! Nearly 4″ of snow :sparkleup:



I spent much of the morning sitting by the window watching the snow and trying out that distressed jeans tutorial! :good: I used the oldest and cheapest pair of jeans. Just some semi-stretchy (aka not 100% cotton) jeans I got over 6 years ago at a Kohl’s (I think.) Because the fabric was that sort of stretch jean material it wasn’t the best for a super threaded, frayed look, BUT I think it came out pretty cool for the open cut look like Wei Son’s! Just took it a little further than her pair.



I think matching them with a pair of pink leopard tights would be nice! :good: I’ve seen some at F21 I might get, though the regular leopard style had a nice subtle look. I liked the jeans paired with floral tights I got at F21.



new coat by the way!

New coat from Yesstyle! I really liked how it was a subtle version of a baseball/varsity jacket but made from just cotton WITH BUTTONS instead of a zipper! The buttons are so unexpected, I loved it. You can find it here from CLICK.



After being snowed in all day we decided to walk downtown for dinner. It was surprisingly busy I got their take on a Shepard’s Pie and then we ordered the Trio Sundae dessert. Why we ate ice cream to just leave and walk home in the snow I’LL NEVER KNOW. fail idea~ But at least it tasted great and Mike actually ate a dessert with me for once, hahahaa



French Vanilla, Raspberry, and of course chocolate. *_*

Then we spent the night decorating the house including getting the tree up and lit!




Finally made it out to Georgetown Sunday. It was a GORGEOUS sunny day too! I decided to wear my “new” jeans :haha: with my polka dot leggings because it was pretty freakin’ cold out still. Icy too, but the roads were clear and seeing the snow everywhere was lovely


BUT IT’S FREEZING OUT!
SO COAT AND HAT A MUST!


:cake:
My main objective was to pick up a Bûche de Noël or yule log cake.
Dean and Deluca’s had beautiful ones last year. However, this year, they didn’t have any full sized versions but instead these little mini ones! PERFECT!! Saves money and Mike & I could each get our own, haahaa. I also picked up a sort of “gourmet s’more” too. It was incredibly rich and incredibly delicious! The cakes too of course!





Got these rose flavored “french mints” at Dean & Deluca’s too! O-M-G! I WILL BUY THESE FOREVER!!!! If you’re a fan of rose-flavored things (tea, cookies, gum, candies) then I highly recommend these. I’m not even a big mint person but I loved these

I also got a $20.00 off gift card for Sephora that I wanted to use. I decided to get some NARS blush in “Angelika” after seeing it in Popteen, Pinky, Vivi and such used in “Dolly” looks.





That’s it for now. I have so little time lately. At least my Christmas shopping officially ended TODAY! YAAAY! I’m 100% done !! I feel like I just need 1 extra day to catch up on everything, but every day, since Thanksgiving holidays really, has been easily filled and passes so quickly It’s a bit…. dizzying! Ha!
