Looking Polished While Wearing Ripped Jeans

Hi there and happy Wednesday! Today’s blog is all about looking polished while wearing ripped jeans! To be honest, I was always a little skeptical of styling ripped jeans with “nicer” tops, but I think there’s definitely a good way of doing it.

Last week I went to Target to check out the Victoria Beckham for Target collection. I loved just about everything! This gingham peplum top was one of my favorite pieces. It sold out pretty quickly, so I found this one that is almost identical.

While we were out shooting in the neighborhood, I couldn’t help but be blown away by how gorgeous these flowers and old-looking gate are!

When you’re wearing ripped jeans, it’s important to balance it out if you want to avoid a totally grungey look – it’s totally up to your fashion sense! The dark wash of the jeans also lends to the entire outfit looking very put together, as well, because it’s such a “normal” look that it doesn’t draw much attention aside from the tears.

Another way I think I was able to look polished while wearing ripped jeans was pairing the look with these Christian Louboutin red bottoms. They match the top perfectly, the red bottoms provided a sneaky little pop of color, and amp up the entire look.
