I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

Alexander Wang’s shredded chain jeans, via Style.com

First you’ll need to get ready:
Jeans cut to desired length, craft knife or Xacto scalpel, Jewellery precision pliers, chains of different width,  Eyelet set  (Pliers, eyelets)

Use the craft blade to slice a section, then scrape down. Putting a cutting board under the jeans helps.

Make some shredded holes further up.; Make a series of eyelet holes near the shredded holes for chains to pass through.

Pass chains through eyelets and hook. Repeat few more times and the same for other leg.

A few tips:

  • You could shred the bottom of your jeans – or like Wang’s it could be left as it is. Since I cut my long jeans anyway, I shredded the bottom.
  • Mix fine chain with chunky chains for more texture
  • Keep a vacuum cleaner ready for all the jean-dust!

Good luck!

I saw two pigeons giving eachother piggyback-rides today while passing a park in a bus. Strangely obscene.

PIEGON PORN, cover your eyes child. I wish I had whipped out my camera but the bus was in a race with a racing car, or something.

Yessss sorry, those boots AGAIN, but those are about the only pair of flat shoes I have for winter…

For some asking who takes the pictures, I enslave a piggy dictator called Ellen, and occasionally a tripod when she’s too busy bossing around her pig minions. Thanks Ellen <3

So sale season has begun. Zara looks like a bombed up marketplace…and these boots were now affordable. So I tried them on, and when I decided yeah, I could do with some L’autre Chose fringeboot lookalikes, and tried to take them off, they wouldn’t come off. So I was all bent over in the shop corner, tugging and pulling, almost being disjointed at the pelvis…and then it came off finally…

Then I bought it. The impossible-to-take-off shoes…I don’t really know why.

No, there was no zipper hidden among the fringes if you were wondering.
