Day 210: Wednesday 25 November

I’m up and that’s a good thing. The sun is peeking out and I think I will ride my bike and wear my denim helmet today. Of course I have forgotten to take a photo of me in the helmet. If you have can’t remember how good it looks check this out

Otherwise I am wearing this…

Blue framed by green should always be seen

Top: Ladakh striped denim jacket, light weight, chic, now if now is yesterday

Bottom: Not worn in ages Levi’s flares. Gunna have to roll them up or tuck them into my socks for the bike ride

Accessory 1: Denim shoulder bag, much used, much loved

Accessory 2: Denim gym boots. Cheap version of the rockin’ Levi’s denim shoes currently around and that I am too cheap to pay full price for

While I am on the subject of denim bags, I haven’t bought a new denim bag in months. Surely I cannot already own every type of denim bag?

I know this cannot be true because of a discussion I had with a Vietnamese check-out chick.

She was admiring the denim bag I was sporting and she told me in Vietnam denim bags made out of an old pair of jeans are very popular right now.

This is an item I need. I might even have to make it myself.

Lookout Mum, I’m coming over with some new denim sewing ideas!

    The pants look like they’d be tricky to cycle in…

    Nice… can picture it…
    Unlike me whose trousers rolled down and ended up having to find a grassy mound to stack on so I could get off bike after untangling myself… a very good look.

    I remember the hand bag from old jeans was popular in Penrith in the 70’s- I think I made one, although I would only make one out of a Vietnamese girls jeans- skinny bitch size 6.

    can still lose stuff in a big beach bag… they turn into a quasi tardis

    That is a really good idea, genius! I remember my sister made a bag from her old levis, it was cute. Just make sure there are no skidmarks!
    The blue and green is a sight for sore eyes…
