I'm very into the whole bad-girl, ripped-her-to-shreds look, influence probably of living in the dirty streets of east london :P And of course, influence from the several fashion blogs out there who are doing this very same projects. I think ripped jeans will always be the ultimate rock'n'roll symbol, along with leather jackets, and the Cheap Monday patchwork ones from the new Ann-Sophie Back collection are a great spin on it.
So based on it, I've put some scraps of vintage fabric on one of the legs, and the other i ripped using a seam-ripper. It took several hours, not an easy one this one.
and the cardigan... that's one a lot of bloggers did, and I HAD to do one myself. I'm wearing it back-to-front, as the back came out more succesful than the front.
and this is my version of the Topshop slashed vest. I love how it looks like ribs - "Horror Girls" indeed. I think it'd look better on a stretchy jersey tee, but this is just a primark one I stole from the Boyfriend.. I had to try it out on a cheap one :)
I LOVE those jeans you made :)
