I recently borrowed a pair of Level 99 jeans to prove to my editor that rips and tears can look hot. I wore #4 to work and she told me that styled like that, she guessed ripped jeans weren’t so bad after all. But look #3 is probably my favorite, because it contrasts the rugged denim with a feminine ruffle cardigan. I’m sad I had to give the jeans back. They were so comfortable—and since I rolled them up, I was able to show off all my favorite shoes.
