ALL IN THE DETAILS: Not Your Boyfriend's Jeans

When it comes down to that last second before you go out with no idea what to wear, the classic go-to move for me is always high-waisted skinny jeans. However, with an effort to look less basic, you might be searching for something with an extra flare to make that look a little more personal. However, with this look, my most common issue is it’s sometimes difficult to find a shirt with enough detail to make the outfit more interesting—I always find myself wanting more out of the look. Have the same problem? I have come to find an even better solution than searching for that perfect top.

Ripped boyfriend jeans are all the rage right now, and might be just what you need to bring something special to your high-waisted look. These jeans can take any simplistic outfit and instantly turn into something more fashionable. The tears give off a grunge feel, but can be paired with almost any minimal top to suit your style.

Going for a more bohemian vibe, this Fashionista paired her high-waisted ripped boyfriend jeans with an eyelet, drop-waist top and a pair of wrap-up leather sandals to meet the pants at the ankle. Her fedora added a personal flare to the look, along with her favorite pair of Ray-Bans and some of her best summer jewelry.

With a look like this, this Fashionista was ready for a shopping day with the girls, a casual summer-night dinner or even a night out.

How To: Perpetually left feel like you need something more than your go-to jeans-detailed-top combo? Try out a pair of ripped boyfriend jeans and see how much better your outfits can feel and look! Just keep in mind, pants that make more of a statement, such as these these, are best paired with simpler style tops.
