Pimp your jeans jacket

 

It seems I am in a jeans phase... I've been working on a big project for 2 months now (also involving jeans:)). And it's taking more time than I had planned. Partly because I'm also dealing with an impingement and had to avoid too much stress on my right arm and shoulder. Which isn't easy when you rely on them for your hobbies.... Anyway, I will hopefully be able to share it next time. 

For now, a smaller project that's also been on my wishlist for some time now: pimping an old jeans jacket! In my opinion a jeans jacket is indispensable in everyone's closet. But that's just my opinion, and I'm Dutch. I once heard British fashion advisors Trinny or Susannah (can't remember which one) comment on television: 'You Dutch girls and your jeans..' Need I say more? And honestly, I don't know which one of my female friends or acquaintances doesn't own at least one pair of jeans or a jeans jacket. 

Feel free to enlighten me on the cultural differences on this topic via the comments, I'm curious! In the mean time, hope you'll enjoy the patching up of my jacket!

Interested in more ideas on how to pimp the back of a jacket or cardigan? You might like this earlier project on vermaakster.blogspot.com in which I pimped a cardigan with a cute birds embroidery I found in a thriftstore. Enjoy!
