TUX/STRIPED Pants

Call it tuxedo pants, side stripe trousers or racing stripe pants, we are in love with these pants! London Olympics 2012 brought the trend of athletic-inspired ensemble. These pants are a mix of track and tuxedo. The sporty striped or lowers have been transformed into pants or trousers of various flattering fabrics.

Gwen Stefani

Gwen Stefani was spotted at the NFL's 2012 wearing a pair of white tuxedo-stripe trousers with a sheer black tank and a black boyfriend blazer. She balanced the sporty outfit with black pointed Christian Louboutin pumps and red lipstick. Very sporty-chic!

Well, I’ve never seen such an impact of sports on fashion! Tinsel town celebs are seen strutting in these pants sportingly. Pairing with white flimsy shirts, the minimalistic styling of Miranda Kerr (in A.L.C.) and Blake Lively (in Lanvin), is adorable.

Fall 2012

During the Fall 2012 runway, we saw a lot of striped pants – LOVE the printed version by Rag & Bone and Tracy Reese!

This trend can easily be transformed from office to dinner and to a lounge. If you love androgynous trend, but afraid to try one – then, this is an easy and subtle way to channel the look. You can pair your tux pants with boyfriend blazer and set-off the masculinity by adding heels.

I’d prefer the slim fit paired with a simple blouse and killer heels, to keep the look sleek and chic. This will also elongate the legs.

Miranda Kerr

The Spring trend moves into the Fall, with deeper hues like burgundy (Fall’s favorite color of the year) and Baroque-inspired prints and patterns, along with richer fabrics.

Pick one for yourself!
