Summer Fashion: Vintage Patchwork

As an active child I used to come in after a day of playing to my mother shaking her head at me and the new holes I ripped in my jeans. The next day I would wake up to a heart patch sewn over the previous day’s blemish and would run outside with my “new” jeans to tear them up again. Needless to say this patchwork trend emerging for summer is close to my heart and easy to participate in. Be daring and mix patterns with homemade patches or purchase one of the many lovely vintage items available.
