I reside in Los Angeles and wear jeans and white t-shirts throughout the year—here are my top 10 favorites.

      I've been living in L.A. for over 15 years now, which I believe officially qualifies me as an Angeleno. With Southern California’s relaxed lifestyle and mild weather throughout the year, it's clear that I've settled into a simple and laid-back daily outfit since relocating here—just a pair of jeans and a white tee. This outfit combination is my go-to almost every day and serves as the perfect foundation that I can enhance with trendy accessories and current shoes. I can also layer various cardigans, blazers, and jackets depending on the situation.

      As expected, I've experimented with a wide range of jeans and tees over the years and enjoy refreshing these two essential pieces with new styles and cuts regularly. Today, I want to share my favorite jeans and tees that I rely on most. I’m drawn to them for their fit, quality, and ease of wear. I’ve included several denim styles suitable for both daytime and evening in L.A., along with tees that fit just right. If you're looking to upgrade your staple jeans and white tees, keep scrolling for my tried-and-true picks.

      **Uniqlo Crew Neck T-Shirt**: I genuinely wear this T-shirt almost every single day! That's why I keep reordering it and currently have about four that I rotate through. It’s one of my top choices. Crafted from 100% cotton with an interlock-knit jersey weave, the fabric is smooth and very comfortable—definitely not thin or see-through. I appreciate its balanced fit—not too snug, not too loose—and a straight silhouette. It’s a versatile tee that pairs well with literally anything, and I recommend it to everyone I know! (For reference, I wear a size small.)

      **Still Here Cool Jeans**: These are a favorite pair of jeans in my wardrobe, perfect for laid-back L.A. days. They not only offer a trendy style beloved by fashion enthusiasts and celebrities (I often see Zoë Kravitz in a pair), but they are also incredibly comfy. The jeans feature a relaxed, wide-leg, low-rise design with an adjustable toggle string. Every time I wear these, I receive compliments! They are slightly pricey, but I assure you’ll love them, especially if you prefer a relaxed, low-rise style. (For reference, I wear a size 26.)

      **Perfectwhitetee Sheryl Tee**: I'm a big fan of Perfectwhitetee's basics and own several tees from the brand. If you’re in search of a fitted baby tee, don’t overlook the Sheryl. The fabric is extremely soft and textured, capturing chic '90s vibes. (For reference, I wear a size XS.)

      **Citizens of Humanity Annina Jeans**: If you want a wide-leg silhouette that you can easily dress up or down, Citizens’ Annina Jeans are essential. They have a loose, mid-rise fit that feels both relaxed and polished. You can always count on the quality of Citizens of Humanity jeans—they're built to last. (For reference, I wear a size 27.)

      **Goldie Amore Tee**: One of my recent favorites, Goldie's Amore Tee has a relaxed fit that isn’t overly oversized and is smooth, soft, and lightweight. Made from 100% pima cotton, it radiates effortless cool-girl style. (For reference, I wear a size small.)

      **We the Free Tennessee Low-Rise Boyfriend Jeans**: I wanted to add a few more low-rise jeans to my collection, and this Free People find has been a hit. I get asked about their origin every time I wear them. Designed to sit low on the hips, they feature a cool, casual wide-leg silhouette. Note that these are made from non-stretch denim and fit slightly small, so I recommend sizing up for comfort. (For reference, I wear a size 27.)

      **Artless Reese Tee**: I own this high-quality tee in navy and white. It has a crisp neckline and strikes a great balance between boxy and tailored with a softly cropped silhouette. The standout feature is its beautiful fabric—structured, heavyweight 100% cotton, making it anything but flimsy. (For reference, I wear a size XS.)

      **Agolde 90s Pinch Waist Jeans**: I’ve had these jeans for quite a while, and they continue to hold up well in my wardrobe, often finding their way into my outfits. A favorite among editors, they boast a vintage-inspired high-rise, straight-leg style that's incredibly flattering. They look great with both heels and flats. I typically cuff them when pairing with sneakers or flats. As they wear, they become softer and more comfortable. (For reference, I wear a size 26.)

      **Buck Mason Pima Slim Crew**: This slim short-sleeve crewneck is lightweight and wonderfully soft, featuring a slight sheer texture that's perfect for summer. It’s also very comfortable. (For
