30 Ways To Wear: Sass & Bide Chevron Print Skinny Jeans
Cost Per Wear
I bought these in June 2016, a second hand buy on eBay. Just $28.50, including postage. Not a bad price for Sass and Bide jeans, and at 32 wears that's just 95 cents a wear so far. I think perhaps the original seller had a few of the same "what do I wear these with" struggles I did in the early years! I've tried print mixing now and then, but over time I've realised if I keep it simple and stick to basic block colour pieces with these jeans I really love them in my outfits.
It's taken me 5 years to get over 30 wears with these jeans. They are certainly not just "throw on and go" jeans, and do require a little more thought before I wear them. But they are so fun, and I still have so many outfit ideas for these. They are definitely keepers in my wardrobe even if it took me a couple years to recognise just how versatile they could be! Particularly this current year. I felt like they were on frequent repeat, as I stuck with the "pair solids with prints" rule to build outfits I loved.
Since I have such a range of outfits with these jeans I've tried to split up the outfits into go-to outfit formulas as well as some easy colour pairings, in case you have a similar pair of grey and black printed jeans you're trying to find outfit inspiration for.
Chevron Print Jeans With Blue and Green
Blue is my favourite colour and of course I think it goes with everything! I am slowly warming up to green and trying to wear more of it in my wardrobe. With the neutral black and grey chevron print of the jeans a bright blue, teal, or even mint top works well against the print.
Colourful Cardigans and Chevron Print Skinny Jeans
Just like the colourful blue and green outfits above, these follow a similar outfit formula. This time, the bright block colour is the cardigan though! While I really like the bold combination of red with the black and grey, you'll see I wear quite a lot of pink and purple with these jeans too!
Neutral Layers With Black and Grey Chevron Jeans
A failsafe "I'm not sure what to wear with a bold printed piece" choice is neutrals! And while I can never seem to nail a completely monochromatic outfit as I always add in a little extra colour - these jeans look so good with neutral blacks and greys, echoing the colours in the print.
Citrus Brights With Chevron Print Jeans
Another much more colourful set of outfits! Similar to the blues and greens I first shared, I find different shades of citrus brights work well with these jeans - from a bright mustard yellow, a more pastel peach, a mango yellow or a bold bright orange, the colours really pop against the denim! I think that the grey chevron print on these jeans helps stop an orange and black combo from looking too Halloween-y as well.
Double Denim Outfits With Printed Jeans
My usual method for waring double denim is to keep it safe and stick to completely different shades - so blue denim jackets (and even my white one) work well with these printed jeans! It's good to stick a bright top in between too for even more contrast between the different shades of denim.
Bright Accessories With Chevron Print Jeans
Maybe bright tops and cardigans are a little too bold for you to try with some statement printed jeans like these. So why not introduce a smaller amount of colour with a scarf or bag? Or both - as I've done in the first and third outfits with the matchy-matchy scarf and bag. Of course if you're loving all the colour, you could try a bright cardigan and a bright scarf together like that outfit at the end there.
Leather Jackets With Black and White Printed Jeans
These jeans are so easy to layer up in winter - printed jeans and a leather jacket is a staple outfit for a cold day! You don't have to stick to black jackets either - a colourful one like that cobalt blue works well too.
Pink And Purple Outfits With Chevron Print Jeans
These outfits are really combinations of everything above! Bright accessories, tops or colourful cardigans, in pink or purple, or sometimes both. I love pink and purple with these jeans, and with the neutral colour scheme of the grey chevron on the black jeans means you can easily wear more than one colour with them. And pink and purple go together so well!
Such a great post! The jeans are wonderful!

Hello Mica, so happy to say hi and I hope you're enjoying the spring summer season in Australia!
ReplyDeleteI just loved that you are really clever when it comes to buy new clothes! I would love to see more fashion bloggers or instagrammers like you in the scene :) And you made a lot of different combinations with a print that many people could see as something difficult to style, but once again you showed us that it is possible :)
I'd say my favorite options where those where you included a really vibrant color. Saturated colors look really nice with this print.
Enjoy the weekend!

Thanks Pablo! I find it so fun to look back on how I've worn things and it's nice to show that you don't have to buy new outfits all the time and can work with what you have!
DeleteYou make wearing this bold print look easy! Your formulas have proved well. It's funny how something can seem so daunting at first and then as we ease into it and get a little more practice, it's like second nature. Good find on Ebay Mica!
ReplyDeletexo,

So true - they have definitely got easier to style over the years when I stick with simple formulas!
DeleteThose are really cute!
ReplyDeleteWell done on 32 wears, Mica! I'm impressed! I like these funky jeans worn best with the bold colours - orange, pink, yellow and that nice bold cobalt jacket are my faves.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend, my friend!
thanks Sheila! I'm so pleased I've worn them so much! And I agree, bold block colours are best with these jeans :)
DeleteYour outfits are always great sweetie!

Thanks Jodie! I've just never liked all the print mixing I've tried with the jeans - although there have been a few I didn't mind most of the print mixing here I wouldn't try again. I find basic block colours better :)
DeleteWow! You really have made great use out of these leggings! I love the print, they are just perfect for all seasons too. Hope you guys have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteThe black outfit: Chevron jeans + black cardigan looks elegant , no matter the tee color. All the other outfits are good for daily wear occasions.

All outfits are great:) Have a nice day :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great style of jeans. I love their zig zag print, so fun. You have styled them really well. Congrats on reaching 32 wears! Have a lovely Sunday dear.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ivana! it is such a fun print :)
DeleteI agree with you Dear friend! Blue is perfect color and it really goes well with the everything. All outfits you shared here look great but i loved blue ones very much. Thanks for the review. Happy Sunday.
ReplyDeleteSo true, it's my favourite colour!
DeleteThat's a lot of ways to wear those chevron jeans! I loved the blues and yellows in particular. I like to pattern clash with such bold prints and would have used similar colour prints (greys and blacks) to do so.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

I have tried a few times but just never found the perfect print to mix with them! Definitely something I should keep trying with though!
DeleteI love all the ways you've made those funky jeans work. I think I love them most with the black/grey neutrals, but also with pops of pink and purple!
ReplyDeleteI'm fond of a pop of colour with them too!
DeleteI'm amazed at the number of outfits you created with these jeans! So fun. Love your creativity!

I love this clothing brand, Sass and Bide, most of their clothes are stylish. Your really made a good use of that skinny jeans, and in very stylish ways too.

yes they always have some really fun printed pieces and their jeans fit well!
DeleteThe green really did add just the right amount of pop to the outfit. And how you score $1 items all of the time, I am so jealous. Even our thrift stores charge almost half of retail value to their used items. It's ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great week ahead!
I'm lucky there are a lot of local opshops around that are focused on keeping things affordable! It helps them move the donations they get quickly!
DeleteYou rocked the pants!
ReplyDeletehttps://ahleessa4realz.blogspot.com/
With such a bold print, I know I would struggle to pair them. My go to would probably be gray, but you've done such a great job with all of these combinations! Very impressive, and inspiring.

ReplyDeletewww.chezmireillefashiontravelmom.com
Yes probably a sign I have too many clothes I can have 30 outfits without repeating an outfit, haha! But they are fun jeans :)
DeleteI have a grey and black chevron knit maxi skirt that I have struggled to style, so these outfits are giving me some good ideas! Your observation to keep it simple is spot on...and that's probably my problem. "Simple" doesn't come naturally to me, haha. I'm going to experiment some more with the colorblocking approach...maybe it will turn my hard-to-style skirt into a more reliable favorite.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that I could give you some ideas! I do find the basic block colour pieces made these jeans a versatile piece in my wardrobe, print mixing outfits just didn't work as well as I thought!
DeleteThank you all for your kind comments!
