DIY- Dsquared Pom Pom Shorts
Ever since seeing these shorts on the runway I thought ‘I need to make those.’ They remind me of these little indian prayer flags my friend Diana brought me from India. Also it doesn’t hurt that I love denim shorts and it’s always cool to find new ways of wearing them. AND I know a lot of you are tired of hearing about Coachella but they are cool shorts to wear to a festival too!….
What you need:
- Denim cutoff shorts (check my DIY denim shorts for how to do it)
- Pom Pom fringe (in a color you want) – I got mine from EBAy for a £1
- Needles
- Thread (in the same color as the fringe)
- Scissors
1) Use needles to pin the pom pom to the denim.
2) It should look like this.
3) After you’ve threaded the needle begin to sew the pom pom to the denim diagonally. (I’ve used black thread so you can see how I’ve sewed it.
4) Tah dah! You are done. If you want add the multicolored ones go ahead. You can also add a belly dance chain to make it look cooler!
This is how they look. Sorry about the crap quality of the photo but I took it with my computer since there was nobody home and I couldn’t find my tripod! What do you think? To be quite honest I made these with wishful thinking since its been raining in London and looks like it will be raining for the next few days (sad face).
