I live for jeans and tshirts. It is my all time go-to outfit. Any time, anywhere I can wear them, I do. It’s a classic look that is always on trend and never out of style. But sometimes I don’t want it to look like I just threw on jeans and a t-shirt. I want it to look like a cute and composed outfit. Which is where my handy tricks to elevate the look come in to play. Here are my three favorite tricks to elevate your jeans and t-shirt look .

OTK Boots and a Great Purse

Nothing changes the look of jeans more than a great pair of OTK boots. It creates a color-blocking effect that catches the eye and a quality pair of OTK boots always adds elegance to the look! Even if you do black boots on black jeans you’ll still get a change of texture in your look. Then just add a great looking bag and you are ready for a night out! For this look I wore an oversize t-shirt but tucked it in to make it appear more dressy.

Knot Your Shirt

This tip is simple it’s crazy! Just adding a simple little knot in your shirt can make all the difference. It provides shape and structure to your t-shirt and is universally flattering too! I like knotting it on the side but you could also knot in the middle for a cute cropped effect! I love this look for something outdoors, like a concert or a sports event!

Add a Blazer

Nothing elevates a look quicker than adding a blazer! This actually my go-to trick for dressing up any look. A blazer will always elevate any look – no matter what! I love a pop of plaid in the fall so this blazer is perfect for that. There are tons of cute solid ones out there too if that is more your thing. Just add a cute hat to this look and you’re ready for brunch with the girls!
