Ripped n' Rugged





I'm a jeans and t-shirt kinda gal. I could wear that or some variation every day of the week if you let me. For me it's all about being comfortable. Sometimes, though, you gotta kick it up a notch. Nothing adds that flair like adding layers and cool accessories.

This look is both comfy and full of texture. The shag vest (Honeycomb Hideout), cable knit fingerless gloves (Elle's Handmade Designs, www.ehdesigns.org) and reptilian bootie (not sure what kind of creepy crawly so I'll just lump them all into one category lol) all add dimension to an otherwise basic ensemble of distressed skinny jean (Old Navy) and plaid shirt (Forever 21).

Pretty much any variation of this combination can work. Switch it up with your choice of color/pattern/cut and, voila! You'll have a look that's good for an afternoon out with friends. So have fun with layers and textures and just do your thang! You don't have to compromise comfort for style. You can effectively accomplish both:) 

(P.S. photo creds to my 13 yr-old son. I could be a little biased, but I think he's got some skills!!:)
