What is better than the perfect pair of jeans and a tee? Trick question, NOTHING. As simple as this look is, there are so many ways for it to go wrong. First things first, you need to find the perfect pair of jeans. Personally, my favorite denim brand is Citizens of Humanity. I live for their “Rocket” high rise cut. They are super soft, very comfortable, and fit me well. I prefer high waisted jeans over low rise any day. Not only are they more flattering, but they give off an effortless put together vibe. Finding the perfect fit takes trial and error. Go to your favorite department store and make an afternoon out of it. Don’t be cheap. It’s better to have one PERFECT pair of fitting jeans over five OK fitting pairs of jeans. Once you find a brand that fits you well, you can stick with it. I’m not saying never buy another brand of jeans, but knowing what brand you like helps with future jean purchases. The perfect t-shirt, I have yet to find. It’s something I think about a lot. I have t-shirts that I really like, but I don’t have one that I am obsessed with. Finding the perfect Tee is going to be my spring mission. As soon as I find one, I will let you guys know. Finishing off this outfit is my favorite part. Obviously, accessories can turn this look into something magical. During the day opt for some stylish loafers, or ballet flats. For a night out, throw on some heels, and a stylish leather jacket and you are good to go.
