Do you have a pair of white jeans in your closet. If not, you might want to take a look at these recommendations for the best white jeans. If you already do, what do you usually wear with them? If you want to give your white jeans a new look, adding a different top will give you an instant update. Let’s look at the best tops to wear with white jeans, no matter what the season.

First a great pair of white jeans

If you don’t already have a pair, or you want to treat yourself to a new pair, the NYDJ white jeans (below) have lift-tuck technology to smooth the tummy and lift the rear.

A great color palette to go with your white jeans is to stick to white and black. It’s also easy to switch up your look by adding a pop of color with your shoes and handbag.

Beth @styleatacertainage above (read her style interview here) shows how you can put together a monochrome outfit with your white jeans.

She is wearing a tweed jacket from Mango, top, jeans and slingback pumps from Ann Taylor, and bag from Kurt Geiger London. Check out this similar belt and earrings to complete the look.

t-shirts

Now that you have your white jeans, what tops should you wear with them? You could choose print or plain t-shirts.

If you want to hide a little bit of a belly, then a print can be great to disguise any lumps or bumps. Choose an abstract, graphic print for a modern look.

Or, you could opt for a wrap style t-shirt, which will be flattering for all figures. The v-neck of the Loveappella wrap top (below) will create flattering vertical lines, while the ruching will help to hide a tummy.

White jeans also lend themselves to a nautical inspired look. A classic striped t-shirt will look good if you are a pear shape, as the stripes across your top half will help to balance your hips and thighs.

Fonda wears a pink top with her jeans | 40plusstyle.com

Fonda @savvysouthernchic wears her white jeans with soft pastels and neutrals. Again, this is a look which would be great for pear shapes, as the ruffles on the shoulder add width, which balances wider hips and thighs, creating a flattering silhouette.

Wearing colors that are similar top-to-toe can also be flattering if you are petite, because you don’t have a visual “break” across your mid section, helping to create vertical lines and make you look taller.

Get her look with this similar tee, jeans, sandals, bag and headband.

Shirts and blouses

Of course, you don’t have to stick to t-shirts with your jeans. You could wear a shirt or blouse. You could create an all-white outfit, or choose to add a bright color or print.

An all-white outfit is an on-trend look at the moment, and creates long, vertical lines. If you want to hide a belly or look taller, then you could add a long cardigan, or sleeveless cardigan in a different color over your white top and jeans.

If you have a longer torso in comparison to your legs, a good idea is to good a shorter style top, like the blue COS shirt (below). Or, to hide a tummy, you could choose a print shirt, and wear it over your jeans rather than tucking in.

sweaters and cardigans

If it’s cool where you are, you’ll want a cozy sweater or cardigan. If you want to add a cover-up without too much warmth, you could wear a ruana or duster jacket over your jeans. A striped sweater will work if you love a preppy style.

Shoes and accessories

The great thing about white jeans is any shoes or accessories will go beautifully with them. You could choose neutrals, or add a pop of color. Red always goes well with white jeans.
