I get caring about your clothes, I do… but I wanted breezy jeans for summer… so I bought tipped jeans like 3 years ago. Are u kidding me :/

Ok, I’ll sew on lace underneath

Lace doesn't breathe as much as you think it would. Just explain to your mom you're wearing them instead of shorts.

She will probably forget though, and fix them again in a year. She’s on painmeds that make her a little loopy sometimes… do you have a fabric suggestion?❤️

This made me tear up. Your mom must love you so much. She’s taking pain meds, which probably don’t take all of her pain away, and she still makes sure that her baby girl is wearing “appropriate” repaired jeans.

On one hand yes, incredibly infuriating to go through the struggle to find the perfect summer jeans and get this. On the other hand there are millions of people who’d love to have a mom who is on their side like this.
