Wardrobe Picks – Ripped Jeans & Shirt

If I was only allowed to wear one look forever more it would be ripped jeans, an oversized shirt, and heels. If I had to describe ‘me’ with a single outfit choice, this would be it! In my recent August Favourites post, I talked about my love affair with Levi’s. Introducing pair No2 – The Levi’s 501 Skinny and yes, this time they’re made for girls! I absolutely adore ripped jeans. Yes they’re not for everyone – I’ve lost count of the times in my life I’ve been told ‘you have holes in your jeans’ (like, yes I know – they’re supposed to be like that) and you do have to think about the hairy/milk bottle leg situation a little more than is usual for a denim lover but what can I say? I’m just a rock chic at heart. Give me a leather jacket, a band tee and a pair of ripped jeans and I’m as happy as a pig in s**t! Adding heels prevents you from entering Waynes World territory while a nonchalant demi tuck of the shirt really gives it attitude. The oversized shirt by ‘Weekday’ (part of the `H&M group) is a relatively new obsession – I love the ultra long sleeves and boyfriend vibe and to me, it’s crying out to be worn over something ultra feminine like a black lace camisole – watch this space. If you follow me on Instagram I have a feeling you’ll be seeing an awful lot more of both this shirt and brand. This look would be my go to for a (very rare) date night (in fact, this is the exact look I chose for birthday drinks when Mr.R & I were granted a few hours of liberty last Friday afternoon) or to be honest any occasion where I don’t have far to walk – this 30 something’s dancing feet are not what they once were…
