You can make your own distressed jean shorts out of jeans by cutting off the legs and poking holes in your shorts with scissors.
Knee-length jean shorts are very casual, and cannot be worn to formal events.
You can add patches to your jean shorts yourself if they are iron-on ones. Simply place your patches where you want them on your shorts and swipe a hot iron over them 2 to 3 times.
Create a red, white, and blue outfit to be patriotic with your white jean shorts.
Wear white shoes to go with the theme of a light wash in your outfit.
You can acid wash your own jeans by using bleach. Use a paint brush to drip bleach onto your shorts where you want the acid-wash design. Then, wash them in cool water.
Use a button-down white shirt to create a faux-preppy look.
White lace looks classic, while colored lace can make your outfit stand out.
Black band T-shirts go well with light wash denim.
Denim on denim works the best with light-washes. Dark wash or black denim can be too heavy and formal looking for a completely denim look.
Since you are wearing your shirt with shorts, it doesn’t have to be completely wrinkle-free.
Be bold with an animal print bomber jacket, or keep it neutral with a solid color.

Support your favorite sports team with your belt buckle, or get patriotic with a bald eagle.
Choose strappy sandals with jewels on them for more formal attire, or go with plain ones for a casual outfit.
Running shoes and a bomber jacket go great together. Combine a plain T-shirt and running shoes with jean shorts for a laid-back outfit. Gray or black running shoes go with almost any color.
