Time to revamp a pair of old jeans lying around your closet!!</em><br/><br/>STEPS<br/>1. Find an old pair of jeans (pref high waisted)…or buy some mom jeans from Goodwill for like $1<br/>2. Put on the jeans and draw a line with sharpie where to cut (leave some room in case you mess up)<br/>**The line should be diagonal with the outward seam highest**<br/>3. Cut lines around the pockets and fringe the edges with tweezers<br/>3. Pour bleach in a squirt bottle and spray the shorts<br/>4. Pour bleach on the end of the shorts to create an ombre effect<br/>5. Allow the shorts to sit out and dry overnight<br/>6. When dry, throw the shorts into the wash and then dryer<br/>**The dryer will fluff up the edges to create a vintage look**<br/>7. And you’re done!!</p> <p><u>Optional</u>-Pin some studs on one side pocket if you want to be extra trendy<br/><br/><br/><em>Comment below if you have any questions!<br/><br/>xoxo Joy</em></p> <p><em>Follow me on Instagram @JoySiao</em></p>http://cup0fjoy.tumblr.com/post/25950019224http://cup0fjoy.tumblr.com/post/25950019224Tue, 26 Jun 2012 17:01:00 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1yypjXiB01ro2v1yo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1yypjXiB01ro2v1yo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><strong>DIY Avocado Roll</strong></p> <p>Ingredients:<br/>1 Cup Brown Jasmine Rice<br/>1 Avocado sliced into 8<br/>1 Tsp Rice Vinegar<br/>1/2 Sheet of Nori<br/><br/><br/><br/>Stay Hungry,<br/><br/>xoxo Joy<br/><br/>Follow Me on Instagram @JoySiao </p>http://cup0fjoy.tumblr.com/post/20478182147http://cup0fjoy.tumblr.com/post/20478182147Wed, 04 Apr 2012 15:12:54 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m121rlbPON1ro2v1yo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Can I just say….AMAZING!!!</p>http://cup0fjoy.tumblr.com/post/19482718129http://cup0fjoy.tumblr.com/post/19482718129Sat, 17 Mar 2012 20:38:09 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0owqbKCwU1ro2v1yo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0owqbKCwU1ro2v1yo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><strong>Organic Grapefruit Berry Juice</strong></p> <p><strong><br/></strong><em>Now Playing- “Levels” by Avicii</em><br/><br/>Another 70 degree Saturday in Sunny San Diego. Shocker. Anywho, finals are right around the corner so it’s very important that I maintain a healthy immune system during this stressful time! This drink is perfect for helping your body stay healthy. Why? Well grapefruits are high in Vitamin C which fight off the common cold, and they also contain tons of fiber! I also added organic wild blueberries and raspberries that are both high in antioxidants.<br/><br/>Simply squeeze 1.5 large grapefruits and add half a handful of blueberries and raspberries into a blender and you’re ready.
