STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: So Distressed Out

Of all the street style trends we’ve been watching over the last few months, this is one that I truly can’t get enough of. Denim, of course, is a staple in every Fashionista’s wardrobe, but its styles are continually changing. Personally, I’d been growing a little tired of the solid-colored skinny jean. Just in time, the newest trend entered: the distressed jean.

I spotted this Fashionista and was immediately in awe of the coolness in this outfit. She is wearing a pair of light wash flare jeans with distressed detailing on the thighs and knees. She pairs them with a loose, cropped T-shirt that hits perfectly at the top of the jeans. This is a simple way to draw attention to your jeans and make sure you don’t loose any of their style by covering them up. She finishes her look with a stack of beaded bracelets and layers of long, delicate necklaces.

This Fashionista manages to look ridiculously stylish but relaxed and comfortable all in the same look. Whether it be cropped, flare, bootcut or skinny, the perfectly frayed and fringed style has something about it that looks effortlessly chic in every style. They may not be professional looking or what your mother is used to, but you have to admit, these jeans are way too cool to ignore.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Denim is one of the greatest gifts the fashion world ever received and I’m confident they won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. Don’t be afraid to try something new or bring back your favorite retro pair. Dress them up or dress them down—the possibilities with jeans are limitless.”
