Jeans, jean shorts, jean jackets ... is there anyone who doesn't own at least some form of denim clothing?! One of the most versatile fabrics around, denim can be dressed up or down and looks awesome in just about every iteration of clothing, from traditional jeans to dresses, shirts, handbags and even shoes. "Okay, we get it, you guys like jeans," you're probably thinking. Yes we DO like them, thank you. Even more so because you can totally tie dye denim, and we love to tie dye everything! So here's a roundup of some of our favorite easy ways to tie dye jeans for fun fashion that's one of a kind.

Bold, colorful and flat-out FUN, turn a pair of cutoff jean shorts into something a unicorn would wear with the Super Big Tie-Dye Kit.

Try embellishing your shorts with studs for added personalization.
Taylor Swift has been generating a ton of buzz around her new album "Lover" dropping in August, and we've been swooning over her fun pastel fashion since she stepped on the scene with her new look.

If you're like us, you probably wear jeans year round, no matter what the weather is like. They're always in style! Create a pair that no one else is sporting with tie dye.

Indigo is trending big time in tie dye right now, and we can see why. It's a classic shade that adds a touch of sophistication while remaining down to earth and always beautiful. Try dip-dyeing a pair of jean shorts in indigo dye for more freeform effects, or try a cool pattern like the string bullseye technique for a pair of shorts that hits a hot fashion bullseye. Explore indigo and other shades of blue in our Shibori Tie-Dye Kit.
Jean jackets are such a versatile wardrobe staple, and so are their vest counterparts! A denim vest goes with just about any outfit; up its cool factor with tie dye in one color like black (or as many colors as you like) and an easy pattern that can look totally edgy like the crumple tie-dye technique.
Tie dye doesn't just have to be about bright colors; you can keep it simple and still so fab with more muted tones. Give a white pair of jeans a seriously cool makeover with black tie dye and the string tie-dye technique. Now you're ready to rock tie-dye jeans all season long!
