Be a Sinner in style with these jeans

- ALEESHA HARRIS

The product: Mother Denim The Sinner jeans.

Why we love them: These baby blues get the vintage-inspired trend just right.

From the slightly relaxed fit and higher rise to the lighter-thannormal wash — cheekily referred to as Thanks for Nothin’ — they ’re a slight ’90s throwback, without being, well, actually vintage and therefore likely worn by someone else.

For those not familiar with this American denim brand, it specialize­s in creating cool, classic and trendy cuts of denim, each pair crafted in Los Angeles.

The line boasts a strong following of celebrity fans, including Emma Roberts, Reese Witherspoo­n, Gigi Hadid and Kerry Washington. Oh, not to mention new Royal Family member Meghan Markle, who is often photograph­ed wearing the Looker Ankle Fray skinny jean in the wash Love Gun.

These Sinner jeans feature a cotton-elastane blend fabric, so there’s some breathing room in them, as well as strategic distressin­g for a lived-in look.

Plus, bonus points for the fact that the denim doesn’t stretch out or get baggy with increased wear.

We test drove them with a black top and oversized pinstripe blazer for a daytime vibe, then paired them with a simple tank and a luxe, long robe coat and leather mules for an elevated evening appeal.

If you’re looking for a chic pair of jeans that tick several of the trend boxes this summer — not to mention one that’s Royal approved — you just might want to try on this “Sinner” style for size.

The price: $349 each. Online: fwrd.com
