Jeans: Mavi Tess Super Skinny in Ink Stripe, Top: American Eagle Outfitters Ribbed Mock Neck Bodysuit
It’s always so amazing to me how different each pair of jeans are when the majority of the population still sees a pair of jeans like a typical blue piece of workwear. Premium denim has definitely come a long way since they emerged on the market and blew up in the early 2000s, and of course creativity is one of the major factors that keeps competition real and the best brands on top. Racing stripes are one of those cool designs that I’ve had my eyes on for a long time—I can’t really recall exactly when they became popular but I know it was a few years ago sometime. I’m going to make an educated guess that they came to be around the time activewear as streetwear grabbed hold of the market and gave denim a bit of extra competition! I failed to add a pair of jeans with side stripes for quite awhile, until I got to review the above pair for Mavi. I absolutely love this sporty looking style! It also reminds me of my days in high school marching band…which came to mind when I was coming up with the concept of writing about 21 side stripe skinny jeans to march you through the summer!
Every now and then more of these jeans with racing stripes, or side stripes, pop up in my searches for subjects to share here on my blog, so I thought I would collect a bunch for a post, as I totally see this style as a great one for the spring or summer since they are a bit of a statement on their own and to me, look best when not covered up by boots or long tunics! Usually they come in skinny cuts, but there are a few styles in here that are a little different. I’m still loving my Mavis, but how cool are those Adidas-looking 7 For All Mankind jeans? Definitely a great street sporty look and I’m all about it. They’re also in the super lightweight b(air) collection which is definitely great for the warmer months. Others here are sparkly or solid, or vary in stripe width or count! Scroll on for many more!
