How to distress your denim.-



I have been searching for the perfect black distressed denim skinnies for like a year! So yesterday when I was out shopping with my new family, I thought, perfect timing. Find some today. They're everywhere TopShop, River Island, Urban outfitters. Everyone has them, but alas, I hated every pair I tried on. I wanted them to fit like this perfect pair of black denim that I had back at home. I had the thought of cutting them myself before but I didn't want to mess up and ruin them. But yesterday when I couldn't find anything I liked, I just decided to go for it! It's so so simple. Here's what I did!

Step one-mark where you want the holes to be. I wanted them on my knees, so I put them on and used fabric chalk to make a line right across my knee.

Step two-make the cut. I wanted a cut straight across. You can multiple cuts or one. It's really up to you. 

Step three-try them on! They're exactly what I want! 

Over time and after a few washes they should start looking better and better. So if you can't find the perfect distressed denim. Make your own!
