Victoria rockks them with acid wash, Ciara with gloves and a frilly skirt, JT with a plain tee, and RiRi kills in this printed leather jacket by Jeremy Scott.

*DIY is soooo FLYY.

Love my Arse-id wash jeans


1. Buy porous pumice stones. These will play an important part of the dying process so you want to make sure that you get ones that will be effective. Beauty stores, as well as sites like ebay, carry pumice stones regularly.

2. Soak the pumice stones in chlorine. Ask a professional who handles chemicals to inform you of the proper way and disposing of this potent chemical.

3. Load the jeans and the stones into an industrial washer, making sure it is safe for such an endeavor. You also want to be avoid the fumes, and warn others of the same, when acid washing jeans.

4. Check on the jeans after 15 minutes. The typical time it takes is 25 minutes, but you want to check to make sure. You don't want to go too far in either direction with acid washing. Too little can make a fabric look awful, and over-doing it can destroy a great pair of jeans!

5. Keep checking every ten minutes after that for just the right look!

6. Once the jeans are dyed to perfection, they should be transferred to another machine, and have "antichlor," sodium bisulfite, added to water they are washed with. Leave them washing for five minutes in this process. This will remove any remaining chlorine.

7. Wash jeans in water for five minutes more to remove any grit from the stones and any possible remaining chlorine.

8. Put the jeans in a high-powered drier until all dry! You now have completed the process of acid washing.

What's Your Alter Ego?

We've all imagined ourselves in a different form and photographer Derek Blanks latest project captures the "Alter Ego". Each of his pictures conveys a underlying meaning for these Black celebs and his quirky personality always shines through.

Shredded, Acid, Destroyed. . .

*The 80s are killer.we all know it.i mean, c'mon.this decade has to be pretty rad if people are still rockking leggings and crimped hair! But cooleo shredded jeans are the 80s greatest invention..acid wash never hurt either. So grab that bleach and some skizzors and have at it.
