We know – ripped jeans are nothing new. Distressed denim has been
doing the rounds for longer than some of us have been alive, but there’s truth
in that old saying: ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’. With that in mind, here
are six beautiful ways to wear your ripped jeans – we guarantee you’ll be
looking at your faithful denim favourites with fresh eyes!
1. Add heels:
Ripped jeans are casual, tomboyish and tough, which is precisely
why they’re so appealing. However, why not shake the idea on its head by adding a pair of high heels?
Suddenly, those jeans feel surprisingly sophisticated don’t they? Paired with
heels, you’re good to go for dates, dancing, and even dinner with in-laws.
2. Inject some glamour:
Whether your jeans are so ripped they look as though they’ve had a
scuffle with the shredder, or they’re simply subtly fraying in the right
places, you can wear them in a way that looks polished. Why not wear your Superdry jeans with a silk shirt tucked into the
waistband? Leave a few buttons undone, and loosely fold the material in so that
it looks effortlessly chic – it’s the perfect ensemble for any event where you
want to look put together but not too try-hard
.
3. Keep it fresh:
Ripped jeans aren’t strictly for the weekend. In fact, wearing
them with a crisp, white cotton blouse takes them from Saturday afternoon into
wear-to-work territory. But, even if your office isn’t so on trend, this look
is a beautiful way to go about your business. Choose a blouse that’s a little
baggy (or even borrow your partner’s) if you want to ooze class and sophistication.
It’s an outfit that requires minimal thought and is extra practical; it’s no
surprise it’s a fool proof favourite for mums on the springtime school run.
4. Toughen up:
Those who gravitate towards a pair of ripped jeans may also like
leather jackets too. How do we know? Well, our (not very scientific) research
shows that petite ladies tend to put the two together. Why? Items like
distressed denim and leather jackets refuse to label their wearer ‘cute’ or
‘sweet’, which is possibly why this pint sized fashionista has such a penchant
for the look.
5. Raise the bar:
If you’d prefer to add a little girliness to your outfit, a
ballerina wrap top is the perfect thing to wear with a pair of ripped jeans.Opt for a soft fabric like cashmere, or a feminine color like dusky rose to
add a touch of grace and refinement. Bonus points for teasing your hair into a
ballerina bun and pointing your toes!
6. Add sparkly accessories:
Finally, another beautiful way to wear your favourite ripped jeans
is to add some eye-catching jewellery. Reflective material such as gold,
silver, rose gold (or any polished metal for that reason) adds some luxury to
such a casual piece of clothing. We’d opt for a bright bracelet, stacked ring
or a statement necklace to glitz up our jeans.
