If you don't live under a rock or on some deserted island you have probably seen lots of people wearing distressed denim shorts. Denim shorts come in all shapes, colors and designs. There are the shorty short Daisy Dukes, the high waisted vintage "mom jean" shorts and so many other kinds. My personal favorite would have to be distressed high waisted denim shorts.
There are so many different places to purchase these shorts, from H&M to Urban Outfitters, from Cotton On to American Eagle. You can buy the high end kind that range from 40$-60$ {Urban Outfitters, American Apparel, Nasty Gal} or the less expensive kind that range from 20$-40$ {American Eagle, Cotton On}. Im not about to give you purchasing advice on which company sells the best shorts because they are all so different. I have my go to distressed lightly colored shorts from American Eagle, my tight black cheetah shorts for nights out from some random boutique in England and my dark undistressed shorts from Urban Outfitters for parties. But my personal favorite shorts are the ones I made myself! Now don't get discouraged at the idea of cutting and creating your own distressed shorts because it is actually really easy. You can make it as long of a process or as short of a process as you want to. You can add studs, paint, fabric, holes and anything else your heart desires!
