And one for-the-fun-of-it item: I’m late to the DIY jeans-hemming trend that involves just cutting off the hems, but this is the best trend (for my personal preferences) since sneakers replaced stilettos. Best why? Because I’m 5’2” and have spent a good amount of time over the years getting jeans professionally altered to accommodate that fact. I love that simply cutting your jeans so they’re shorter is now not just a respectable option, but a look there are instructions on how to achieve.
