Ripped jeans have been around forever, but brands like Citizens of Humanity have been hitting it out of the park with recent styles and washes. The rips and distressed areas of destroyed denim give them a casual off-duty look that makes any outfit look super cool and effortless.
Ripped denim use to be considered strictly a grunge or punk style, but that is not the case anymore. With so many styles to choose from, you can rock a pair of distressed denim jeans for almost any occasion. There are even a ton of tutorials on the Internet on how to distress your own jeans for anyone who is feeling brave and a little crafty.
This Fashionista kept her destroyed denim the focus of her outfit by pairing them with a simple black long sleeve top. She is wearing a pair of Citizens of Humanity Rocket denim in London Calling. This style happens to be my absolute favorite pair of jeans that I own. They are a little pricey, but definitely worth saving up for. The soft fabric and high-rise fit make these jeans flattering on anyone. If you are not looking to invest, don’t sweat it. You can find amazing destroyed denim for any budget, like this black pair from Topshop or this light-wash pair from American Eagle Outfitters. This Fashionista topped off her look with a taupe felt hat and a classic pair of camel booties.
