Inside all of us is a rock star waiting to get out -- a leather jacket-toting, torn-up jeans-wearing, utterly fabulous rock star. Thanks to Denim of Virtue, the time has never been better to embrace this inner desire. This rock star image was the first thing that came to mind upon viewing the Denim of Virtue collection. An array of distressed jean selections, each one was more stage-worthy than the next. The denim even comes in varying levels of distressing, catering to a wide variety of consumers. There's the subtle collection, boasting boyfriend, skinny and wide-leg jeans with only a hint of wear-and-tear. The second is the moderate collection, where skinny jeans show more tailored signs of distress. And finally, there is the extreme, where 90s punk rears its head in the form of carefully placed holes that decorate skinny jeans. When you're done rockin' out, be sure to check out WhatsWear for more notable new brands!
Get Distressed And Ripped Denim For Summer

It seems like only yesterday that we were all wearing flannel and ripped denim (remember the grunge scene of the early 90s?). I used to go down those rough cement slides in the park to get the perfect distressed look. Those days are long gone, but ripped denim is no one hit wonder! We've seen celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens and Victoria Beckham wear their ripped jeans in style. From super short shorts to flirty skirts and jeans in different cuts, there's a ripped style just for you. You can get a super destroyed jean with big holes and tears like this bleached pair from Oak. If you're like me and like a more subtle look, pay attention to pieces with distressed edges and smaller rips and tears. After all, those little rips can always be made into bigger ones. Check out my slideshow for more ripped denim, from less than $15 to $200, that you'll want to rock all summer long.
