If the forecasters are to be believed there's some warm weather on the way, but with the autumn stock arriving in stores daily, it might be a little late to go sourcing shorts for lazy days and barbecues.
But worry not: with a little creativity, you could be rocking a new pair every day for the remainder of summer... and for just a couple of quid!
Distressed denim is a trend that returns again and again, and while high street and designer brands charge a pretty penny for ripped threads and bleached fabric, these effects are incredibly easy to recreate at home.

In this brilliant tutorial, vlogger Elo5000 shows us how to correctly trim, bleach and distress them into a pair of shorts you'll wear year after year.
Now all that's left to do is spend your jeans money on accessories...
