I second the Pinterest pointer. Just don't get sucked in! Be careful with that place. You can go on searching for a few neat DiY ideas for your jeans and five hours later be pinning beds that hang from the ceiling with lighted fixtures underneath for absolutely no reason other than it looks amazing. It's a black hole like Wonderland, I tell you. Sincerely, A Pinterest Addict.
Do you have anybody in your family - or friends - who makes clothes? Luckily, my auntie is a seamstress. She has been taking in and taking out clothes for me, here and there, for years, according to how much weight I lose or put on.
