Let It Pour

Stepped out of the house yesterday for a late Sizhuan lunch with cutie & sis. I'm not much of "It's raining lets go out" kinda of girl. But, You know the last few days had been excruciatingly hot, sweating from places that i didn't know i was capable of Hot. I'm sure lot of New Yorkers agree that it was quite a pleasant break from the New York Summer heat.

Shoot today. Busy Busy Busy.

Which ones are my Favourites?

I'm partial to my newest ones ^_^. But I must say the Litas are my all time Favourite.

So, My Current favourite would be Lita Stud $264 in the mail & on the way. I know i haven't yet seen them in person but i know its going to be my Favourite because for one Lita is my weakness & second i have a thing for all things studded. But mostly because thats the last shopping i'm going to be doing in a long long long time.

a Preview of my new pairs. EEEEE i'm excited aren't they a Stunner! Sigh! Think i'm about to pass out.................

ps: = This post was recommended to me on facebook as a good idea for a blog post. Agreed.

DIY Destroyed Shorts Tutorial

Since my Vintage Levis made the style gallery on Chictopia Yay! thought I'd do a tutorial on how to make one.

What you will need.

A pair of Scissors.

Blade.

Old jeans.

Pair of current shorts to measure the cutting length.

Old Pair of H&M high waisted acid jeans (high waisted is not neccesary you can use any style)

TopShop high waisted denim shorts (if you picked a low waist jeans make sure you use a low waisted shorts to measure). Align it with the crotch area., as shown below

Cut at least 1.5 inches or 2 inches longer

Use the leg to cut the other leg.

Like this

It should look something like this.

Take a magazine or book.

Put it inside the jeans, make sure to pull the pockets out too. You do this so you don't end up cutting the back side of of your shorts & have holes in your pocket

Cut the area you want to destroy. 2 parallel lines to begin with. The more destroyed, the more cuts.

Your cuts should look something like this.

Start pulling out the darker thread and you should be left with the lighter ones. Shown below.

After you are done. I only did one side for this shorts. Next, for the bottom run you scissors without cutting it but roughly runnning it over and over the hemline.

Wash & Throw it in the Dryer. It should come out even more destroyed. You are done!

One of the few ways to wear it.

I hope this tutorial was helpful.

Diamond encrusted Turquoise gold ring from mum.

Heavily rimmed Kohl eyes

Slipping into tunic's like these has been my thing lately. Maybe cause it's almost the end of July, we have untill August, Mid-September? till Fall starts creeping in. Or maybe cause they are just so easy to Live in!

Word is Bond, or so they say.

Trying hard to keep a promise I made to Papa. To spend atleast half hour every morning doing my Yoga breathing, think its called Pranayama breathing & Kundalini Breath of Fire. Maybe I should take up that Yoga class Cutie had mentioned, if not for a disciplined Mind & Body, atleast to keep my word. Because "Promises are like babies: easy to make, hard to deliver." ~Author Unknown
