It's fun to bring old jeans to life again! These were a pair of medium wash jeans that I haven't been digging for a bit. The zipper detail at the bottom was the only reason I've been keeping them...but now it was time for an extreme makeover. Just like a lot of the denim I've seen out right now, I wanted to give these character with paint. I brushed on navy by the seams to add depth and darken them up. I also splattered and dabbed different shades of blue and metallic gold to create interest and a focal point. (Why not right?...splatter is killer right now...keep it coming!) I'll probably still add a little more navy and possibly black to make them a little darker. 

Pair of outdated denim, consider yourself rescued!

I heard my childhood calling with the current splatter paint trend...so I flung some paint around.  

....Ok, there was a little more intention involved than just flinging paint...a design was in mind.

First off, as always, I picked my colors and pick them wisely. I wanted to keep it more of a high-end adultish feel than the classic splatter paint, so I chose neutral colors, grays and metallic gold. Also I didn't want to cover the whole boot in the mess, that would've been intense (bad intense)...so I tried to keep the paint mainly in the front toe area.

These boots already had amazing textural detail with the weaved top and the studded wrap with buckles...but with the splatter added, it just gives them that extra character I was looking for.

Hmmm...what else can I cleverly fling paint at?

TRENDING: splatter paint fashion

Splatter paint is back! I'm totally inspired by these high end fashions...but not the high price! Of couse, I'll be bringing you my own splatter painted goody very soon. The way I latch on to these fun trends, I might go overboard and start splatter painting everything. I love a good experiment. Let the fun begin!
