UPDATE: I just announced (as of 9:45 AM CST!) a winner for these adorbs Baublebar earrings in the white color on Instastory! Check it out!
I know I relatively recently talked about my obsession with raw hem denim, so it should come as no surprise that I’ve been gravitating towards other pieces with a frayed aesthetic, too.
{Y’all is cool.}
I’m primarily smitten with this Ulla Johnson dip-dye fray-hem dress ($345), which would be perfection with a pair of of-the-moment slides (like those Loeffler Randalls I died over recently).
I had to do a quadruple take when I found this adorable lookalike style from Anthro for $138!!! #Youwillbemine.
At the higher end of the spectrum, new-to-me designer Marques Almeida has some AMAZING pieces, all with frayed edges, like this top ($510), which somehow looks ladylike despite the denim + fray situation.
These Jeffrey Campbell sandals ($145!!!) also turned my head. What an amazing way to spice up a simple LWD, like this $75 stunner (currently at the top of my lust list).
I’m also into this frayed denim dress (Chloe, on sale for $525). Get the look for less with this Madewell find or this Current/Elliott style. I’d pair this with some refined bow-topped mules from hot new line No. 21 ($559). P.S.: are you sensing a #microtrend here? Those Brother Vellies bow-topped sandals I showcased under pick #2 here are definitely in a trendy zone right now.
And, speaking of shoes, these canvas frayed-edge Schutz heeled sandals ($190) make my heart explode. Love the neutral color and the ankle buckle. They’d go with EVERYTHING in your summer wardrobe.
+Or, why not combine my new obsession (bow-topped mules — check out hip new line Brother Vellies covered here in pick no. 2) with the frayed look in the form of these $100 slides?!
Also — a different kind of fray — but I really love the look of these Preston + Olivia frayed hats ($205) for the beach this summer. Tres chic, ca. You can also get the look for less with this $54 Michael Stars style.
Finally…
+This blush frayed top is around $100 and nails the look.
+Love this frayed denim top from Anthro ($88).
+Ooo, these cool platformed espadrilles ($190)! Also comes in a flat version ($175).
+NOT frayed, but I love this denim dress with its dramatic bell sleeves (on sale for $117). P.S., more bell sleeved goodness here.
