Allow your white tee to center each and every spring outfit idea you craft this season–it is the perfect blank canvas, after all. For starters, Leset’s famed Margo tee is the chicest of choices, especially when peeking out underneath Alex Mill’s striped ladylike jacket. Next, adhere ever so slightly to the trends and style the duo atop Toteme’s bright white jeans and a pair of metallic ballet flats from Schutz. While the staple may be the epitome of casual, The Frankie Shop’s strong-shouldered style becomes increasingly cooler when worn with St. Agni’s clean-lined maxiskirt and a pair of crinkle-effect loafers from Khaite.
For a twist on tailoring, style Giulvia Heritage’s lightweight tee with Polo Ralph Lauren’s structured suit vest and Gucci’s newest handbag arrival. Ever so versatile, you can even wear Tove’s draped delight with Vince’s pleated black pants and a pair of Bottega Veneta
There’s no closet combination quite like a white T-shirt and jeans, just ask Vogue’s Executive Fashion Director, Lisa Aiken, for example. Like Aiken, slip into Banana Republic’s classic-with-a-twist tee, which features delightfully flattering draping, and Agolde’s slouchy blue jeans. To finish off the look, double the denim in Valentino’s oversized barn jacket and sling St. Agni’s suede moon bag over your shoulders.
The Twisted Tee With a Transitional Trench Coat
A full-length trench coat is a timeless transitional staple for a reason. For spring, however, we’re gravitating towards more epic options, like H&M’s wrap coat. Underneath, Tibi’s twisted tee is the ultimate accent. Round out the look with a pop of burgundy, or two, from The Row’s tailored trousers to Loewe’s chain-link Flamenco bag.

The Strong-Shouldered Style With a Clean-Lined Maxiskirt
The perfect mix of classic and cool, The Frankie Shop’s strong-shouldered tee pairs a little too well with a clean-lined maxiskirt from St. Agni. For a touch of tailoring, layer the tee underneath an oversized black blazer, also from The Frankie Shop. Crinkle-effect loafers from Khaite add some edge to the ensemble, while Toteme’s Scoop bag keeps it masterfully minimal.
The Everyday Essential With a Ladylike Jacket
Leset’s cult-classic Margo tee is the ultimate blank canvas, allowing for those buzzier It Items, like Alex Mill’s striped ladylike jacket and a pair of white jeans from Toteme, to shine. For a casual weekend wardrobe, finish the look off in Schutz’s metallic ballet flats and a spring-to-summer straw bag from Dragon Diffusion.
The Luxurious Lightweight Tee With a Sleek Suit Vest
If you’re committed to the suit vest but prefer a bit more coverage, Giuliva Heritage’s lightweight white T-shirt is the perfect layering piece to place underneath. To match the easy breeziness, style the duo with Another Tomorrow’s flared midiskirt and a pair of polished penny loafers from Saint Laurent. Gucci’s just-arrived bucket bag doesn’t hurt in the mix, either.
The Nine-to-Nine Find With a Must-Have Mule
It’s no secret that the foundation of any casual outfit is a plain white tee. However, the same also goes for a more elegant evening ensemble. Start with Tove’s asymmetrical top and a pair of pleated pants from Vince, then finish off the look in Bottega Veneta’s minimalist mules and Uniqlo’s sleek black trench coat. Meanwhile, Isabel Marant’s studded belt and a pair of structural earrings are finishing touches not to miss.
The Boyfriend Fit With a Powder Blue Pant
Perfectly oversized, Haikure’s white tee can (and should!) be tucked into anything and everything. For spring, we’re wearing ours with a pair of powder blue pants from Banana Republic and Toteme’s lightweight leather jacket. Other textural takes to consider include a pair of metallic Mary Janes from Aeyde to a suede tote bag, also from Toteme.
