DIY: How to Distress Jeans

This is a lot more simple than I thought it would be.  Searching for the best tutorial in the interwebs probably took longer than the DIY itself. I found this to be the best and simplest, not to mention her voice is so sweet and soothing!         A few things to add: 

• My old Lucky Brand jeans already came slightly distressed and all I wanted was to rip a few small bits here and there.
• I had this for inspiration but I wanted mine to be a tad bit tamed.
• The tutorial is NOT kidding about the first few strands being the hardest to pull.   Be patient as it does get easier after a few pulls.  
• I decided to leave a few blue strands in each hole. 
• Total time:  30 minutes all while watching NCIS! 

  And here's how I wore it.   Outfit details here.

 

Ironic, after this DIY, I found a perfectly-distressed jeans that I absolutely love!  

Oh well, who says you can only have one distressed jeans in your closet?!
