I had done this to my denim jacket just the other day! Now I know the name for it. And I think lipstick is the only makeup I could successfully apply sans mirror. Then again, some I can barely manage with one!

You can add an extra little flip on the back half if you need more stabilization with softer fabrications.

Fun interview too, and Jenna is an expert with the lipstick:-) It was brilliant meeting you, and next year/time (yup Denise, I like to think big, and actually want to do this all over again next weekend;-) I hope we can spend more time together. Thanks so much for joining us for breakfast!

It was so fun dining with you CC; I loved your outfit and getting to know you.  Hope to see you again at next year's SSIF!  (Hint to Inge if she is reading this!)

And I can put on lipstick without a mirror pretty well - but then again I don't wear very bright or very deep tones.

It was so fun to meet you at SSIF!  You are as delightful in person as you are online!!

I'll have to try the Jenna roll--thanks!

I will have to try the Jenna roll sometime...although right now I need something to work on softer shirts. I have a rayon shirt that looks messy when I roll the sleeves, even though it has tabs to keep them up! The lipstick challenge was fun. I don't do well even when looking in a mirror, ha ha.

I did the Jenna roll today on my grey chambray shirt -- without knowing it had a name. It doesn't always stay put well on a softer shirt though. I would fail the lipstick thing so badly. But I look ridiculous in bold lipstick anyway.

I've even done it before. cheryle (Dianthus) on "For Cocolion and others, the "Jenna roll"" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-cocolion-and-others-the-jenna-roll#post-1365717 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 23:32:15 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1365717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very timely for me CC.  I was reading about the jenna roll the other day but didn't have a chance to look it up. thimblelina on "For Cocolion and others, the "Jenna roll"" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-cocolion-and-others-the-jenna-roll#post-1365711 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 23:22:29 +0000 thimblelina 1365711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thank you for that!

Period. 1365687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOL! I love the lipstick contest! A friendly JCrew SA taught me the "JCrew roll" about 8 years ago, and I've never looked back.  I'm glad to know I'm Jenna approved.   Karie on "For Cocolion and others, the "Jenna roll"" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-cocolion-and-others-the-jenna-roll#post-1365666 Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:32:07 +0000 Karie 1365666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I had no idea I was cuffing all wrong!

Off to check it out, as I am a total failure in the sleeve-rolling department myself.  Instead of effortlessly-chic, I end up with a haphazard, wrinkled mess!

I met many but not all of the out of towners.  Everyone was even better in person than online.  Especially enjoyed hanging out over breakfast with Denise and Claire. Inge, it was wonderful meeting you.  I hope your month in Seattle is special. And thanks for the yummy chocolate!
