All Bleached Out

I previously wrote an article about ripped denim. This post is going to be about another one of this Spring's denim trends. Bleached denim! So if you have a pair of jeans that are bleached out from being washed too many times, don't throw them away yet because they are totally in style this season. If you want to bleach your own denim, grab a pair of jeans that you wish to do this with, and some thick bleach. Then soak your jeans in water and spread the bleach in the areas you want to appear faded. Throw them into the washing machine after doing this. If you have sensitive skin like I do, make sure to wear gloves during this entire process. You may also try this DIY project on jean shorts or a denim skirt. If you don't feel like bleaching your own denim, there are plenty of pre-bleached jeans you can wear. I will post some pre-bleached denim below.
