Today while I was at school my mom and my grandma made this jacket out of a pair of jeans.
It's still in the works: the end goal is for it to be more rock & roll/folky rather than crafty.
Pretty amazing denim engineering going on here!
This jacket from the i-D spread I recently posted was their inspiration:
Sea of Shoes has been denim crazy lately, huh?
I'll give you guys an update when the jacket is tweaked to perfection: if it goes well you might be able to purchase one from my mom's website when it launches!

Wow, this is very cool. Godd job for your mom and your grandma. ;)
Wow, what a funky cool grandma! We already know your mom is incredibly stylish, funky & talented), but a mother/daughter team effort for the daughter/grandaughter? How sweet! The jacket’s coming along beautifully, can’t wait for the finished result! :)
<333 it.
wow that’s intense!
the construction thus far is nothing short of beautiful. I’m not sure if I’m head over heels for it, but then again, Ive never been a fan of denim jackets.
wow, it’s fabulous!
i “discovered” this blog today when a friend posted a link on her page. And I am amazed! Are you really only 16?
Also, what’s your height? I really love how you put on stuff and look great, but I’m not sure if it would look that good on me cos I’m diminutive.
Keep posting! xoxo

This jacket is already looking great, I can not wait to see how will it look when its finished!
Fabulous! I love the lace. I’d add some pearls to it too. Can’t wait to see it finished. Looks great on you.
Cool. I love the pockets in the back. Creative.
The lace trimming looks great, can’t wait to see it when its totally finished!

thumbs up for the great idea! I’m not that into the lace trimming, but I’m LOVING the denim.

Awesome jacket. I love the lace detail on the cuffs!
i love the layered skirt you have on! where is it from if you don’t mind sharing?

Very cool, so rock and roll.
_Love_ the idea, but the lace is hideous. Makes it look cheap.

I love this! I think my favorite part is the back pockets.
Nice work! What type of sawing machine does your mom use? mine doesn’t work well on denim and I was thinking of buying a new one, any recomendation??
First of all, allow me to say that I’m a big fan of your and your mom’s fashion sense. However, I’m not liking the back of the jacket – at all…quite nasty looking…I hope the final product looks better…
TOO AWESOME!!!
awright it’s official
you seriously can rock anything
gotta love it!
great blog
terrifffic! i’d like to see it in a darker shade =D
wow!!!! it’s fantastic!
It would work better without the lace..
Great and Hip Grandma,I live in Dallas and never miss your posts! You are amazing!
Fantastic work. It kind of reminds me of a Gees Bend quilt . . . (which is absolutely lovely).
the only good thing you and your mom have is that you have a lot of money.
because neither of you have style.
money does not equal style. money equals name brands which is all you care about.
cool jacket! you mom and grandma sound so cool to me making something like that :) and luuv those marni platforms i see in the background! ;)
