Street Style Inspiration: GET RIPPED

You've seen correctly, the new darling of the denim world is anything is shredded, ripped or torn enough to look lived in hard. I'm not sure if it is the re-emergence of "grunge" or residual impacts of the post punk resurgence, but deliberately destroyed denim is inching its way into every section of society.  Shredded denim jackets are a fresh alternative to jeans. Take a cue from Kate Lanphear and keep the rest of your outfit simple and sleek .

1. R13 Shredded Jeans  $595 2. CURRENT/ELLIOTT The Shredded Stiletto Jeans $258 3. CITIZENS OF HUMANITY Mended Slash Jean $299 4. ONE TEASPOON Distressed Jeans $149 5. JET BY JOHN ESHAYA Jamie Jean $198 6. SIWY JEANS Destroyed Skinny $195

Destroyed denim is a trend I love. Casual and effortlessly edgy, distressed boyfriend jeans look extra cool when dressed up with sexy pumps and torn skinny styles are the perfect pant to wear with ankle booties. When the weather gets cool opt for a pair of mended torn jeans or layer them over a pair of opaque tights.
