As someone who quite literally lives in jeans and a T-shirt (in any season), I’m always looking to find ways to change it up. Of course, not too much. I’d still like to keep the core of the outfit as is but simply update it so it doesn’t appear that I’m wearing the same thing every day (even if I sneakily am). If you’re like me, or you’re simply one of those people who get bored easily, I think you’ll find today’s roundup useful.

Below, I'm highlighting five easy ways to make your jeans-and-tee combo feel fresh over and over again. From outerwear to accessories, these tips will have your old favorites looking like new and your outfits feeling on trend for the next few months (with pretty minimal effort if I do say so myself). To see the looks for yourself and, of course, do some shopping along the way, just keep scrolling.

1. Throw On a Blazer

This works for every outfit, every time.

2. Try a Trendy Sandal

Elevated flip-flops and sporty sandals will be everywhere this summer anyway, so you might as well hop on board.

5. Opt for a Statement Jacket

If blazers feel to business-casual to you or simply aren't your thing, opt for another style of statement outerwear such as a suede jacket or windbreaker.

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
