Jeans are arguably the most worn item in most college girls' closets. There are many different cuts and styles, but they take you where you need to go. They can be easily dressed up or dressed down, and are as classic as they come. Whether you are a wide leg fanatic or true blue jeggings fan, there is definitely a style and cut for you. 

Distressed denim is a great, on trend way to bring a little bit of edge to an otherwise simple outfit. A pair of distressed jeans is perfect for a day at the library or out shopping. They offer the same comfort and ease as regular jeans. They are exciting and different and best yet a project you can create all on your own.

There are many ways to create your own original pair of distressed jeans. Many people start by wearing away at the denim using sandpaper or even a cheese grater. But the best part about making your jeans your own is having a unique look that you can be sure no one else has. But I recommend checking out this site for cool ideas and a video demonstrating how to distress your jeans.

If crafts are not your thing and you are looking for a fun pair of jeans that are already distressed, check out this pair of light wash skinny jeans which would look great with a cute crochet cut-out top and a pair of wedges for a night out. Or if you like looser fitting jeans, this pair of boyfriend jeans would look great with a simple scoop neck white T-shirt and a pair of loafers for class. 

If you are not feeling as daring with all the rips and tears, I recommend taking smaller steps and getting a pair of slightly distressed jeans like these paired with a beaded blouse, so you can maintain all the '70s style without stepping too far outside of your comfort zone.
