Hi Guys,
Wassup? The Sale season is officially ON!! And boy i am going crazy. They have some pretty great deals at Lifestyle, Forever 21, Mango and Westside.Though this time i have instilled some self control in myself. Buying only the stuff i really need rather than just because its very cheap. Lets see for how long i can keep this on though. One of things i have been looking for are these knee ripped black jeans. I have seen so many celebrities adorn this look. Its been ages actually i been looking for them. But either i never find my size or they are not the way i want them to be. I do find some with lots of rips but i already have that in blue and i practically live my weekends in them. But they are hell expensive and i think its stupid spending so much money on something thats supposed to look rugged and old. So i thought instead of buying why not DIY-ing it.
Its really simple and takes less than 5 minutes. All you need is an old pair of black jeans ( mine are from Forever 21 and i had got them for less than 600 bucks) , a piece of chalk to mark the area to be cut ( i am using a white eyeliner cause i couldn't find chalk :P ) , a pair of scissors and a foot scrapper (this optional). So lets get into it
Step 1:- Wear your jeans for one last time, go crazy in them. Once they are like your second skin take the chalk and make a line wear you want the rips. I made mine on the knee cause thats the look i was going for.
Step 2:- Pinch the fabric on the line and make a hole with your scissor and cut along the marked line.
Step 3:- Turn the jeans inside out and using a scrapper give the rip a rugged look, pull out some thread. Even if you don't do it eventually after a few washes it will achieve that look.
And Voila you are done. Now you have got your own pair of ripped denims and that too for more than half the price. And you can also do this for your denim shorts.
