As you've probably noticed designers have been taking cues from the race tracks recently with what we're calling race-car-inspired street wear. Celebs like Kendall Jenner and Hailey Baldwin have already given this look a test drive, and now we think it's time you grind your wardrobe up a gear with some of these pieces. Like the athleisure trend, fashion girls everywhere are embracing NASCAR-inspired pieces with the same street style appeal. Think sleek, high-quality leather jackets and chic side-striped trousers — a more elevated version of the casual tracksuit.
From the classic black and white checkered print to leather moto jackets, we're breaking down every race-car-inspired piece you need in your wardrobe stat. So, what are you waiting for? Start revving those engines and push your Spring wardrobe into full throttle.
