How to Elevate Jeans With A Cashmere Tee
Are you like me and wear either jeans or leggings most of the time? I love wearing comfortable clothing, even if I’m going on a date night. That’s one of the reasons I try to find items to elevate jeans, and a cashmere tee is perfect for the look I want to create.
When you hear “cashmere,” you probably think 💲💲💲. That is the case with a lot of cashmere sweaters, but that’s not the case with these. When I come across great items that are also affordable, I can’t wait to share my finds.
This 100% Mongolian cashmere tee is perfect for now and later. For now, I would add a nice blazer, jacket, or sweater to complete the look. But, when the weather warms up, I would wear the tee by itself with statement jewelry. I first ordered these sweaters in a medium but had to return them for a large. The large fits me much better since the sweaters have a slim fit. I’m wearing heather gray, which is a soft color.
Ivory is a shade that can be worn with anything, making this a great basic tee. However, finding items that are lightweight enough for spring and summer but not so thin you can see through them is difficult.
With the heather gray, you can’t see my jeans under the sweater. However, with the ivory tee, the jeans show through. This is not a deal breaker for me, but I wanted to bring it to your attention, so you weren’t surprised when your tee arrived. I wore one last year that didn’t seem to be as see-through, and I just noticed that they have restocked since it sold out last year. I re-ordered another white one and grabbed the green one too. I ordered a large since that fit me best. I think you’ll be pleased with them.
These tees are soft, but they are thin. That is actually why I like the tees since I can wear them in spring and summer without burning up.
I wanted to keep the soft, muted color theme going, so I added my Brahmin handbag in Alabastor. Brahmin is well known for their distinctive style and quality handbags. However, that comes with a high price tag. I linked to some similar styled bags in my How To Look Casually Elegant Over 50 post, and I’ve ordered the Vegan Leather Crocodile-Embossed Pattern With Top Handle Large Shoulder Bag in navy to check it out.
I love the trouser style flare jeans from Old Navy! They look and fit great, and you can easily dress these up or down. The jeans have some stretch to them, and they run big. I tried on my usual size 8 in a recent Old Navy Try On Session, but they were too large on me. I ordered a size 6, and they fit me perfectly.
I didn’t get a good photo of me in these DRAPER JAMES RSVP Charlotte Women’s Wedge Sandals, but they are super cute and will be perfect for spring and summer. These are going with me to Miami since they will go with almost everything I am taking. They are also available in a pretty sky blue color, but since this color is so versatile, I went with it. The shoes run true to size.
I kept seeing this crown in the photos, so I decided to showcase it for all of you. This is my youngest sons Homecoming King crown, and I’m not sure why he doesn’t want to take it to his house. Lol!

This might not be the place to ask but I’m needing a white cotton shirt/blouse. Roomy in busy area especially not letting buttons gap. Wear xlg usually. Would love some spandex in it. Any suggestions.
Susan, I actually have a post on white shirts coming up soon.
What a great elevated tee. Looks awesome on you.
Comfort is the way to go!
I’m leaving in 19 days for my cruise and I’m trying to go stylish but comfortable!
Thank you for all of your ideas.
Have a blessed day!
Love the trouser jeans and I just ordered them. Your hair also looks fabulous! Can you share your hair color shades and exactly what your stylist does? I want mine to look like yours!
Thank you
Karen, I’ve shared it before. Let me see if I can find it.
I like that there is sweater that can be worn in the warmer months.

Can’t wait to hear what you think of the blue bag you ordered. I think it is cute and am interested in it
Ordered the sweater. Can’t wait to get it!
Have a fun trip!
Nothing better than a sweater and pair of jeans!
You girls have fun in Miami ☀️🥂🌴
Love this whole outfit!! The trouser jeans are great!! I hope that you have a great time in Miami!! Have a wonderful Saturday!
Looking forward to getting the flare jeans! I kept getting an access denied notice for the website, maybe it’s just me. Fortunately, there’s an Old Navy near by!
What a beautiful sweater! And you are right about it dresses up the jeans. I should have ordered a pair of the trouser jeans when I placed a recent ON order.
Love love love the gray cashmere tee. Ordering it now! Have a great trip!
Oh I just love this. Thanks and have a great trip!
Girl, you look fabulous & SO young in this outfit & skinny body! Very classy!
That crown would elevate any outfit!🤣
I love the Quince cashmere. I have that tee in caramel. I sized up too. The gray is another good basic and I may need to get that one too. 😂 I hope you have a great day!
I love the feel of cashmere. I wish the sweaters were long-sleeved.
They have long sleeved ones too, I just like a tee for spring and summer.
Love these cashmere tees!
Love the cashmere T’s. All of my cashmeres are long sleeve so I’ll definitely order one of those. I also love the trouser jeans. Have a great trip Tania. Safe travels.
I’ve always been a fan of casual dressing too. Currently, I only own long sleeve cashmere sweaters, but, I love the cashmere tee you styled! I’ve heard of Quince and will definitely be ordering a cashmere tee from them very soon. Such reasonable prices. Can’t wait for your posts from Miami!
Love the sweaters and the crown!
I hope we get to see pictures of you and you blog-buddies together!
Love this whole outfit! Looks so comfy yet pulled together.
Another great post! I love seeing those jeans……I went straight to Old Navy a couple days ago and bought the trouser jeans after seeing them on your post! Have a great trip!
Love the crown Tania! Go forth! Thanks for sharing!
I was just in Miami I went to vizcaya museum. It’s a gorgeous place for fashion photos. It’s right on biscayne bay. You’d look great there!
Looks great! I’d like to see some 3/4 length sleeve options because I have floppy underarms
Hi Tania,
I love the look of the jeans you are wearing but I am very short I like to say barely 5 foot?!? 🙈 any suggestions for the shorter ladies on these jeans?
Thanks you!
Dana, this style jean would look great on you, but they would have to be hemmed.
I think the crown is totally appropriate as you are the queen of fashion!
thanks for sharing the cashmere sweaters. the crown was a great touch, lol.
Love the sandals! I think the cashmere tees are beautiful on you, I may have to try one. I’ve only had a cashmere turtleneck before & I loved it.
Great post! Love the jeans!
Love this outfit easy and classy! I was wondering about the crown too!! I figured it was Joe’s😉 Have a great trip!!!
Love the soft looking t-shirts with the cute jeans., they go great with the crown.
Hi Tania! Thanks for your posts!! Love the cashmere tees and the wedge sandals. And, I was wondering about that crown! Thanks for modeling it. 😆
I love Quince! I have a cardigan and a v neck pullover and they are fabulous, especially for the price. I will have to try a T.
