Women Are Swapping Their Boring Water For This Ice Pop Electrolyte Mix!

Who here has felt victimized by Regina George their grandma when she looked at your new pair of distressed denim jeans and said, “you paid money for those holes?”

Well, yes Grandma, we did. We LOVE ripped jeans and are gonna keep wearing them (ha!). They’re really in style, everyone is wearing them, and they’re a great addition to our wardrobes. But what if your jeans just keep ripping? Sometimes the perfectly cut holes in your pants just, well, keep growing… Soon it looks like your wearing shorts with an ankle-strap, rather than the trend-setting pants you bought in the first place.

Well, we’ve been searching, and conjured up this one tip that will keep your precious pants in pristine condition:

This hack from Refinery 29 is sure to keep your rips in-tact. Use a flat iron to attach iron-on denim patches to the inside of your jeans where the rips are! Jeans rip from side-to-side, so if you stick on these patches on the left and right of your rip, they should stop tearing when you put them in the wash.

It’s that simple! Try this out to keep your ripped jeans looking as *imperfect* as you love them!
