Style Favorite: Distressed Denim

Today I thought it would be fun to share with you one of my favorite style trends of the moment – distressed denim! I can’t get enough of it, it’s a bit of a problem. And unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know they are a serious thing happening at the moment!

As I just mentioned, I am an avid fan of denim – distressed, deconstructed, destroyed, whatever! Rip it up and it’s the coolest to me. And even though I’m constantly mocked by my family ” It’s a shame you don’t have enough money to buy a whole pair of pants.” – little do they know, most designer distressed denim costs more than a non-ripped pair of jeans!

Crazy, right? Because you are getting less pant! Either way, I love it!

To me, the pair of jeans that are distressed that I’ve fallen in love with are so stinkin’ comfortable. They have a looser, more relaxed fit, most have been a higher rise {my new obsession} and let’s be honest – they are cooler and airy-er {is that a word?} because of all the glorious holes – instant AC in your pants! Win!

My love for the distressed probably also has a lot to do with the fact that I’m a stay at home mom, so I can wear these and run around with the boys all day, comfortably – and {I think} look cute. Others might think I look like a homeless person {hi mom!} but its my style and I dig it.

Side Note: Also digging my new Trio Earrings – how cool are these things?

1 stud earring that looks like three – instant awesome.

I thought it would be fun today to round up some of my favorite distressed denim looks from nine different stores, yup – each pair shown is from a separate store, because DISTRESSED DENIM IS EVERYWHERE!
