REQUEST fraying jeans on hip - any help?

Post image

hi, i am quite fond of these jeans. they have started fraying here below the right pocket. it's similar to the inner thigh wear (which is in a similar state now that i'm looking). i like to wear these with casual work outfits. i was wondering if sashiko in the same color as the denim would solve the fraying in an office appropriate way? are there other ideas? is it just a matter of time? many thanks!

Maybe some fabric on the inside to strengthen, and a nice simple design of small stars, or even some leaves or something if you’re feeling fancy in a similar colour to the jeans would look lovely.

thank you so much for this input!  i really like the leaves idea, but it does sound ambitious
