Clearly I have a thing for distressed denim. I think I own 2 pairs of jeans without rips. Oops! I remember when I was in high school I spent hours distressing a pair of jeans–this was before they were popular. They had the perfect rips; I was so proud. My mom was not a fan and literally threw them in the trash 5 seconds after seeing them. haha! Since then my distressed denim collection has grown quite a bit. I’ve found some of my absolute favorite pairs from Express.
I recently picked up these gray mid rise destroyed ankle jean leggings. They were on sale buy one get one $9.90. Such a steal! I’ve worn them so much already–the fit is sooo good! These jeans have the perfect amount of stretch to keep them nice and fitted but super comfortable at the same time. I got these in a petite and the length is perfect. They are available in short, regular, long, and petite–Express has everyone covered. The gray color is perfect to pair with anything. I paired it with a flowy blush blouse and strappy black satin heels.
If distressed denim isn’t your thing, I highly recommend these high waisted raw hem stretch cropped jean leggings. I just added these jeans to my collection and they are amazing. See them on me here. These jeans are super flattering and the dark color is very slimming. They don’t have as much stretch as the gray ones so maybe go up a size. I took my usual size and ordered them in petite to get the perfect fit.
Not sure what size to get? Pop in store to try them on. Express is offering my followers $25 off a $100+ on in store purchases. Just use code 1177–it’s good through 9/15! Jeans are still on sale buy one get one $9.90. This means you can get two pairs of jeans for under $100 and get a cute new top to go with them. Yay!!
I absolutely love this outfit! It's professional, chic, and edgy. I love ripped jeans myself, and I always try to find ways to sophisticate them with dressy items and tops. This blush color is gorgeous with your ripped jeans, and I love how you layer your accessories to compliment each outfit.

I think distress denim adds so much "umph" to an outfit.
