To the boy who used to wear these clothes:

I would like to extend my sincerest apologies because these two articles of clothing you used to own has caught my attention and drove me to alter it to the point of no return. Wearable? Yes. Wearable for you? Probably not. If you don’t want to speak to me ever again, I’ll understand.

Love,
Agnes =)

So what exactly did I do to achieve this look? Well, this time around, I wanted to make a top with an asymmetrical neckline so I grabbed a white tee from a skateboarding clothing line called FTC (“For the City”) and cut it until I liked what I saw. I finished up the shirt by rolling up the sleeves and sewing it in place.

…the shorts however, were a different story.

Transforming a pair of Unionbay straight leg jeans into a pair of shorts is a very easy task. In fact, Anjelica has done this a few times in her entries! It is the destroying part that takes a lot of work. The tools I used to fray the ends were a butter knife (yes, a butter knife) and a nail file. As I was doing this, I was tweeting the difficulty of destroying jeans (@agnesrose =]) and Jessica sent me this lovely link. Although I damaged my jeans enough, I believe this link would be very helpful if you decide to to the same.

Now, go out there and create!!!
