How to wear your ripped jeans in winter
We knew you wouldn’t be able to resist wearing your ripped jeans all year round! But, let’s be honest, they’re not the most practical of item of clothing in your wardrobe, right? We’ve taken some tips from the queens of street style to ensure you can make yours work just as well for winter.
1. With combat boots
When it comes to style, Olivia Palermo can do no wrong. Her technique for ripped denim is simple: mix your denim with high end tailoring (a chic coat over a polo neck) and tough black combat boots and you’re sorted. Comfortable and cosy.
