4 Ways to Style a White Tee

*Thank you to GAP and ShopStyle for sponsoring today’s post

Good morning, friends!  I hope your week is off to a great start!  I’m so glad you found yesterday’s post helpful! I strive to bring value to you through my posts, and I always appreciate chatting with you through the comments.

August and September signify back-to-school and Fall style.  In Houston, we struggle through these months because it’s still so hot here, but we’re ready for jeans and sweaters!  One place that really knows jeans and casual style is GAP.

They’ve been a go-to for denim for years, and I even love dressing my kids in their clothes.  They always have the cutest, quality things, and great sales!

Today kicks off GAP’s pre-Labor Day sale, and almost everything is up to 50% off and an EXTRA  25% off!

4 WAYS TO STYLE A WHITE TEE

I found two awesome pairs of jeans at GAP recently, and have also always found them to have the best basic tees.  I’m sharing 4 ways to style your white tee today, and I’ll give you all the details on the two pair of jeans I definitely recommend!

OUTFIT #1 • WHITE TEE WITH JEANS & SNEAKERS

You cannot go wrong with a basic white tee, jeans and sneakers.  In my mind, the perfect white tee is on the thicker side, fits perfectly, is opaque, has a great shape and lasts a long time.

This modern v-neck t-shirt from GAP checks all the boxes and never goes out of style.  It’s very well made- you can feel the quality when you hold it in your hands and it feels great on your skin.  It’s made of that super soft Supima cotton, the same soft cotton in your favorite baby clothes, so you know it’s good.  It’s also known for being strong and holding its color well.

You can machine wash and dry this top and it will come out as beautiful as it went in.

Tee Fit: This tee is fitted and stretchy, I’m wearing size XS.  One reviewer said she’s 5’6, 180 lbs and the XL fit perfect.  

The shirt also comes in regular, tall and petite and I’ll try petite next time for a shorter length.

Jeans and crisp white tee will never go out of style and you can have fun with your sneakers now that there are so many bold styles and shapes.  I love a wedge sneaker for adding a bit of extra height.

One thing I’m also crazy for is these jeans.  They’re also from GAP and a high rise skinny with a traditional button and zip fly.   They fit amazing and help keep you looking trim with the secret slimming pockets.  The medium indigo wash is perfect for wearing with virtually any top in your closet and they have a touch of fading and whiskering.

Jeans Fit : I love that these jeans come in regular, tall and petite.  I’m wearing my true size, 25 Petite.  I love how a tiny bit of ankle shows without me having to roll the bottom!

To add a little bit of flair to this outfit, I added a skinny leopard belt. I think it may have sold out, but I also liked this skinny stitched belt that would go with so many outfits.

OUTFIT #2 • WHITE TEE WITH JEANS & A BLAZER

For your casual Fridays at the office or when you want to look more polished, a blazer instantly ups your wardrobe game.  I’d go as far as to say that all grown up women should have a tailored blazer in their closet because you will feel so good in it!

The black and white plaid is classic and can be dressed down with these same jeans or dressed up with slacks, a skirt or over a dress.  It’s a double button front with button cuffs and front flap hip pockets.

Blazer Fit: This blazer has a tailored silhouette with a slim fit.  I’m wearing size 0P, but it also comes in tall and regular, with sizes up to 20.

It’s fully lined and has a bit of stretch.

For your casual Fridays, add heels or a nice pair of flats.  Either one would look great with these same skinny jeans.

OUTFIT #3 • WHITE TEE WITH CORDUROY SKIRT & JEAN JACKET

Jeans and a white tee are an obvious combo, but you can also wear the denim as a jacket and switch the jeans for a skirt.  I adore this corduroy skirt for Fall since it’s in that pretty traditional Fall rust “copper brown” hue.  But, it also comes in a gorgeous dark green and bright pink.

Skirt Fit: The skirt sits a little high on the waist and is miniskirt length.  I’m wearing size 0P, and it also comes in regular and tall.

I loved mixing it up with leopard booties!

You guys know how much I love a good jean jacket.  I almost always have one in my car because you never know when you’ll need it! I like the modern style and fit of this one with the dark denim – the same color as the jeans in the first two outfits.

It’s one of the most comfortable jean jackets I’ve worn because it’s made with a supersoft stretch denim. I like to cuff the sleeves for a casual look.  I roll them up long ways so that the bottom button is almost touching my elbow, then cuff the bottom up once more so that the button cuff sticks out a bit.  Does that make sense?

Jacket Fit: This jacket has a modern, straight/relaxed fit and sits at the hips. I’m wearing size XS and it also comes in tall and petite.

OUTFIT #4 • WHITE TEE WITH BLACK JEANS AND PINK CARDIGAN

I’m always happy when the weather takes a turn towards the cooler temps and I can start wearing cardigans.  On the day we took these pics, it was still so hot out that I couldn’t enjoy the coziness of this cardi!
It’s got a lovely shawl collar and sleek design without any pockets or other embellishments.  I adore the pale pink, but it also comes in black, oatmeal, dark and light grey.  #gimmealltheneutrals

Of course, you can wear your white tee with jeans in various colors and GAP has a diverse range of washes and silhouettes.  This black pair is so good!   They are a perfect mid-rise skinny jean and they give you legs for days!  I love how this pair shows a tiny bit of ankle as well.

Jean Fit: These are a slim fit I’m wearing size 25 Petite and you can also customize your inseam with regular, short or long.

You could also swap the cardigan for the jean jacket or wear this pink cardigan with the blue jeans.  Lots of ways to mix it up!  And more ways to wear a white tee than I could share in one post!

Are you all about a white tee too?  I’m actually wearing mine with jean shorts today- because Houston is always last to the Fall party!  Which look is your fave?  Have you tried GAP jeans lately?  The blue pair is the one I wore out with my girlfriends on Friday night and I’m sure you’ll be seeing me in them a lot more soon. 😉
Have a great day friends!
