When the weather cools in New York, I can only think of one thing - New York Fashion Week. In the spirit of Fall fashion, we want to see photos of your refashioned clothing projects. Are you a thrift-shopping flea queen who has mastered the art of upcycling? Did you skip the tailor and put needle-to-thread on an emblazoned blazer? Maybe you took Marc Jacobs lead -- and put your Red Bull habit to good use -- like the refashioned wedges below the fold. Either way - we want to see your refashioned looks for Fall! Click through for details and see the potential for your photo in today's Readers' Commuter Bike Photos and in previous Readers' Slideshows. Red Bull Wedge Shoe by Marc Jabobs.
