okay, so obviously i was bored this weekend, being trapped studying at home & not getting to spend easter with my family. so i went on a mission to transform an old pair of jeans into a balmain ss09 inspired pair of bleached/torn ones :)

good! i'm glad the run-on sentences & general lack of grammar didn't deter you! ahahaha ;)

[sloove]

thanks!
& you're very welcome! i'll be glad if it's useful for even just one person :)

Aww I miss you doing things like this! This was a great read, I might try and find some jeans I don't wear to play with.

And I love that black V neck. Might have to try that, too.

aww! let's consider it my 'triumphant return' since i didn't find a real job this summer & will be spending 4 months being creative again :)

definitely try both!
the cool thing about bleaching black fabrics is that you never know what type of colours you'll find underneath! the dying processes to get fabrics black are varying & that's apparently why there are always different looking shades of black. when you bleach, you can get browns, oranges, reds or pinks. in my case, an orange colour came out after about 20 minutes after i splattered the shirt in a slightly diluted bleach :)
i actually put a dab of bleach on the inside seam of my grey tee & the result was a light pink! so now i'm considering destroying yet another tee! :D

Oh wow, I just realized that was you on the Lookbook.nu Tumblr! I was scrolling through my feed and I saw this and I was like "oh those are some really cool jeans."

[sloove]

haha that's crazy cause i don't even know what tumblr is! AWESOME!

lol, when i looked up 'lookbook' on tumblr, even though i don't really understand the results... i did see my butt in thumbnails twice.

Tumblr is another kind of like... media "reblog," where people post pictures they like, music, videos, etc. I just use mine to post photobooth pictures of myself every day :|

And here's my favorite, to show you a good example of one:

yeah, i sorta get it... it's basically a 'look what i found' sorta thing right?

what i'm trying to grasp is like, this for example: http://lookbookdotnu.tumblr.com/post/96071007/destroy-everything-you-touch ... what does it mean when people "like it" is it about as meaningful/less as a facebook-like? and then what are the 'reblogs' haha. i'm just trying to understand this cause i seem to be behind on things like this, twitter & polyvore etc... perhaps i just look into them too much to try and find an actual purpose.

thanks for showing me that one by the way! it's so pretty & organized compared to the other ones i just started... tumbling... upon? lol
