About
A quick way to update your favorite cut-off shorts.
Denim shorts are my favorite thing to wear in the summer (and as far into fall as I can get away with). Adding a little vintage trim to the pockets can really kick them up a notch... and, it's easy!

-
Step 1Find a pair of denim shorts you love.
-
Step 2Lay them flat on their front so you can see the back pockets.
-
Step 3Choose a beautiful trim to apply to the back pockets.
-
Step 4I chose this vintage boho-tastic cotton woven trim, which goes through the wash pretty well.
-
Step 5Cut to the size of the back pocket opening. You can fold the edges under if you want a cleaner, finished look, but for these destroyed denim shorts I liked the look of the raw edge.
-
Step 6Pin down in place.
-
Step 7Carefully hand sew the trim to the pocket, carefully... without sewing the pocket closed!
-
Step 8When you're finished with one pocket, repeat on the other side.
-
Step 9Voila!
