Ahem, Ive sidled into the Lightside for a lil advice ... not about garment sewing, goodness me no ... but about a garment to be fair ..
You see after my Hop treatment I found myself in a Next asking a very pretty young thing with eyebrows like caterpillars if they had any .. ahem ... dungarees ??
To my shock they did and she presented me with a fair approximation of the dungarees I lived in during my mid to late teens ...
I was delighted and scurried into a changing room to find out if any of the sizes she gave me would actually fit!!
And one pair did!!! I was gobsmacked ...
This is such a rare occurrence, nay a rarity amongst rarities ... a perfect storm of rarities ..
A) I actually entered a clothes shop that was not of the charity variety
B) That they had something I liked in a size that might fit
C) That it actually did fit
and lastly
D) that I purchased said item (Gift card, Chrimbo pressie from a handful of years ago or more)
And do you know what I did?? I actually bought them .. from new!!!!
So I've got them home and there is only one thing I really, really want ... I want them to be lighter!
They are a very dark denim and I really like the lighter, well worn colour better.
Have you any tricks and tips on how to get that 3 years of wear colour from a very dark item in a few days weeks ????????
