Distressed / Ripped Jeans || Outfit Inspo

To say that I'm obsessed with distressed or ripped jeans is an understatement.  I absolutely love a cute pair of ripped jeans.  I actually have more distressed jeans than non-distressed jeans in my jeans collection. 

Most of my ripped jeans, I've either distressed myself or thrifted them.  However, Forever 21 and HM have a few pair I've been eyeing for quite some time now.  In the past I thought it blasphemy to pay more than $10 for a pair of jeans with rips in them.  I mean come on, that money could be better spent on a pair of shoes.  But!  Time (and my growing addiction to ripped jeans) brings about a change.  

Today's look is really simple and easy to recreate, and you can certainly opt for a whole pair of jeans or a less distressed pair of jeans for this look.  Quick story on this top.... I bought it a few years ago from Old Navy and had only worn it once when it went missing.  I looked everywhere for it, but it had vanished.  We moved a little over a year ago and while packing, the shirt reappeared.  The End.  

Back to the look... I opted to dress up the jeans with this floral button up and thrifted red blazer for a more contemporary feel.  It was a toss up on the shoes, however in the end I decided on the leopard print pumps.  

Whelp!  I hope this look inspires you to step outside the box.  And may the rest of your week be a stylish one.  Need a little more distressed denim outfit inspo, I got you.  Check out these looks >>> HERE, HERE & HERE.  Enjoy!
