Hi Belle,
I like the look of distressed, ripped up jeans. Can you help me find a pair of distressed skinny or straight leg jeans that aren’t too destroyed? My budget is less than $150.
Love your blog! Sera
A pair of distressed jeans can boost your casual wardrobe. I own a pair that I picked up at 6pm.com, and I love wearing them with pretty blouses or graphic tees. Here are a few pairs that meet your needs.
Banana Republic Skinny Jean ($98, petite and tall)
Textile Distressed Jeans ($81)
Have you tried Gap’s girlfriend jeans? I am in love! They’re fitted without being too tight, and you get the ripped & distressed look without having actual holes; they’re patched in the back. But as far as I know they only come in the lighter color.

Here they are in a darker color.

Of course, that’s not what you’re looking for since they are not distressed. Oops!
I have the Banana Republic jeans and they fit great! The rise is pretty high, which I like. And if you can wait it out, BR has sales quite a bit.
