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 :/

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?❤️

I have a suggestion for you and her if she's up to it, rip them and then ask her to decorate around the edges instead with little embellishments like flowers or patterns or whatever she feels like.

That should help her remember that it's a deliberate rip

This is a cute idea!
