Remember the panic you’d feel when a hole started wearing in the knee of your back-to-school jeans? One too many ill-advised jumps off the jungle gym or dumps of your 10-speed, and your new jeans were toast. “Mom’s going to kill me.”
Now I find myself buying up pairs of jeans with the knees pre-busted and desert booties already scuffed. (And my mom doesn’t yell at me.) Loving the relaxed, too-cool-for-school feel they bring to an outfit. For a nice contrast, I matched the distressed pieces with a clean, classic striped tee from JCrew.
What do you think? You jumping on the destroyed denim trend? I’m loving the idea of these jeans with everything from casual sneakers to dressy pumps.

You have an awesome sense of style, Ashley! I would never think that this would look good or even to try it out, but you pull it off with ease and show others that it’s a feasible look. 🙂
I really want to try this trend out- it’s so cute for the weekend!
You look stunning! I love that deep red lipstick on you!
always so lovely!

I love this trend, but it is so hard to wear. These jeans are only acceptable on the weekends, so I have invested in one pair from Old Navy for $10! I love them!
I love the ripped jeans lady!! You look fab as usual! Rocking that high pony!

Haha I remember the good ol’ days where I lived in fear of my mother and getting grounded for ruining a new pair of jeans. Like you, I’ve been trying to find a “perfect rip” on a pair of jeans. It’s kind of hard sometimes though. Love that you paired it with a perfectly preppy top! You look so cute!
nice!

I am loving this high – low looks together… the idea of something more sophisticated like a striped shirt with some ripped jeans… it looks great. I am definitely going to pull some ripped jeans out of my closet this weekend!!
