Ruffles and Rips

Top: Shein
Pants: Shein
Bag: Twinkledeals (c/o)
Earrings: Happiness Boutique (c/o)
Watch: JORD (c/o)

Let me tell you a story about this pair of pants... I have been wanting to buy myself a pair of ripped jeans. But aside from the fact that I couldn't find one I like, my husband was all against it. Hear me out here because I do think he makes some sense, at least for now in our fashion arguments. He thinks it's a stupid idea to buy a pair of jeans at brand new prices that look like they've been damaged or destroyed. Fashion is crazy like that. But I can't tell you how much I love this pair.

Even though my husband would probably laugh at me every time I put this on, I am loving this pair. I love that the ripped detail is more subtly done than others wherein you can literally rip the pants in half by the leg. I decided to pair it with my ankle strap heels to provide a delicate touch to the outfit to provide contrast to the edgy ripped jeans. Since I am strutting a black and white combo (and some nude from the heels), I was aching for color in this outfit. Hence, I tossed in my new saddle bag from Twinkledeals and turquoise earrings from Happiness Boutique.

I think this is the first time in a while that I am loving so many components in one outfit that does not involve a dress. (gives self a pat in the back) What is your thought on ripped jeans?

  11. Abby, I tend to think like your hubs BUT! in this case, you have turned them into a work of art!!! The beautiful feminine top, the colorful little handbag, those terrific high heels! Of course, hair and makeup. I can also tell by the way you are carrying yourself, you are doing so with tremendous confidence - the type that says 'I KNOW I look wonderful!'

  19. Almost all of my jeans have rips. I love destroyed denim. That being said I get made fun of by my coworkers that I can't afford a pair of jeans without holes! This pair is fantastic on you! Love this entire look!

  20. I happen to love a good destroyed jean, too, particularly when they're boyfriend cut or more of a jegging. What I really love about your outfit is the red purse! It has such great detailing!

  23. I love this whole look! You styled the ripped jeans perfectly, and it is an outfit that can be easily transitioned into colder weather with the right boots. Thanks for sharing love! XO, Ellese

  24. I agree with Fashionista Momma about how the purse is a fun color! And with Ellese about how this is an outfit that can be easily transitioned into a colder weather outfit. :)

  25. I think that's every guys logic! I can't blame them, but I can get behind ripped jeans. Love the detail on your top!
